I just got off the phone with J.R.R. Tolkien and he told me all of the dancing bears survived the Downfall of Númenor so nobody has to worry about them 🙏

Just showed the latest ‘HeGetsUs’ Super Bowl ad to Jesus and Johnny Cash and they’re both freaking PISSED.

Hope Ryan Day spends the offseason kicking in doors in the Columbus area and eating stuff straight out of strangers’ cabinets like a problem bear

I’m not turning on the damn television today until it’s time for Ohio State vs Notre Dame and I highly recommend this course of action

Someone just found out how babies work.

If I was Matt, of all people, I would probably not muse about where kids are gonna be spending their time.

Thanks to whoever went to the trouble of morphing me into a dromedary so I could finally fulfill my potential as "Mar🐫".

a “couple” means two, a “few” means three, and “several” means four but no more than nine. “many” means more than a third but fewer than half and “most” means more than three-fourths. i am so glad this is not controversial and we could easily reach a consensus on this.

‘Phonetic’ is not.
‘Abbreviation’ is 12 letters.
‘Thesaurus’ doesn’t have a synonym.

Say what you will about English, but it has a sense of humor.

If I don’t use a certain app it doesn’t mean I’m engaging in purity politics. For me - and this, again isn’t a political statement - I find this one easier to navigate. It’s not that deep. Sometimes people want to say what’s on their mind without being deluged by flying horseshit.

So to summarize, according to #maga, any Black, gay or trans person who achieves any position, no matter how degreed or credentialed they are is an unqualified #dei hire. And any white person, however unqualified or even sketchy is inherently qualified when they get a job. Do I have that right?

Beaker and Mushkin look forward to continued dialogue.

Don’t you dare sully the best Lex Luthor any of us will ever see.

Either Salems Lot or Pet Cemetery. I think the latter.
