Got a text from the DNC that said “We’re hoping Trump wakes up tomorrow morning…” well, that makes one of us

Hi, I’m the person near you at the grocery store when the weather is bad. This is my first time ever out in public and I don’t know how to behave like a human being

RIP to my 2005, but I am now the proud owner of a 2016 Hyundai Accent and this still applies

Warms my heart to think of all of the freed January 6 insurrectionists on this day. Hopefully they are celebrating from their prison cells after being sentenced for their other unrelated crimes 💗

Pluribus makes the important case for physical media over streaming. When the Hive Mind comes, what dvd sets do you have to get you through? Carol only being able to watch Golden Girls really opened up my eyes

I'm not going to lie, I'm secretly rooting for Lizza and Nuzzi to get back together.

With all of product placement in #StrangerThings5, they’re going to find Vecna drinking a Gatorade

Reading all of the Olivia Nuzzi news but imagining Bobby refers to Bob from Bob’s Burgers

Sources say a big part of them crashing out over Mamdani is due to the fact that he’s also very hot
