Now that I have to drive at night (since there is no sun after 430 anymore) I am doing some serious research on how to reflect high beams back at pickup truck drivers so they’re get off my ass. I cannot fucking take this shit anymore

He said "Amen" straight into the drop

Lmao Pope Leo threw a rave for an archbishop's 75th birthday this is kind of incredible

The day after our conversation, Mr. Olbermann called to clarify something that had not come up; he wanted it known that they did not begin a physical relationship until Ms. Nuzzi was 19.

It’s very funny to me that he apparently considers this detail exculpatory www.nytimes.com/2025/11/21/s...

Whoever said reading the subreddit for your favorite things will make you hate it is 100% right. Lotta miserable fucks in the yakuza subreddit

I love that the yakuza games keep the karaoke song Like A Butterfly across a few games, it’s a fave, but they really need to give “ring” the same treatment. That song is so fun to play and decently challenging

AOC on MTG retiring: "She's carefully timing her departure just 1-2 days after her pension kicks in and after making millions of dollars insider trading stocks for weapons manufacturers and others while in office."

The markups for Korean skincare is insane too lol like how are they on par with American brands now? In the early days of eBay shopping for this stuff it was like $5-10 for korean sunscreens

Kbeauty social media is crazy even by American capitalist standards because they are out here trying to convince you that everything is wrong and ugly about you and buying a bunch of standard skincare items from an idol endorsed product will cure you

"Yr open mouth awaiting my harvest,” Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who is now the Secretary of Health and Human Services, had written to my then-fiancé. “Drink from me Love.”"

Being horny really fucks up men’s analytical skills. Anyway, why no examples of her great writing? I keep being told how she is uniquely talented, but no one gives specific examples

Fucking garbage I can’t have Microsoft programs have different themes. I want excel in black (easier to read formulas) and outlook white (easier to read text)

Cops Used Flock to Monitor No Kings Protests Around the Country A massive cache of Flock lookups collated by the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) shows as many as 50 federal, state, and local agencies used Flock during protests over the last year.

New: cops used Flock AI-enabled cameras to monitor No Kings protests around the country. Also monitored No Hands protests and protests against DOGE.

The wet nipples lol

Lord…. I have seen what you’ve done for others….

Not a criticism of Mamdani in particular, but as long as we allow massively funded, heavily armed right-wing paramilitaries to have veto power over every aspect of public policy, it will be impossible to enact even the most basic social democratic reforms that a lot of liberals say they want.

Every time I find out about a new (to me) hateful, anti feminist peddler I look up a photo and it’s always funny to see how they look and how they will never pass their own feminine purity standards. Inbred looking cunts.

Interesting fact: “Every autumn Black-capped Chickadees allow brain neurons containing old information to die, replacing them with new neurons so they can adapt to changes in their social flocks and environment even with their tiny brains.”

It really is wild how open these freaks are. And how many of these freaks have a major platform to spew their opinions (like the Boston Globe)

It’s so cool that I am subject to anti-bribery laws as an employee in a US based company, but apparently not the President

Even for Trump this is insane

screenshot of a YouTube video still of a chubby baby seal laying on the snow with the caption "In the glittering backlight, a fat baby seal is doing nothing special."
