When you drag a woman by the hair, beat her and force her to kiss your flag, that’s how you tell the world you are the Good Guys

do the Bills know you're cheating on them with the Lions

Great command of the language on display here

I've long said that I think Zuck feels fundamentally uncomfortable as a person; not at ease with people, or in his body, which is something many of us have felt but most of us work through.

We should talk more about how tech billionaires seem to dislike other humans & think we all feel the same

"it's not going to happen because I won't do it" -- sure jan!!

If my example makes sense, that's pure coincidence, I'm just putting words i know in a grammatical order with no deeper understanding of their meaning

I need someone who is both a ball knower and a fashion knower to make some analogies between creative directors going to new fashion houses and WNBA coaches losing their jobs, something like: The Liberty firing Sandy Bronello is like if Demna got fired after after the Fall 2025 men's runway show

Super interesting

Adding on here that this was true of my publisher as well, but I discovered it a few years ago and made them rectify it

The concern about the decline of the male novelist is the dumbest moral panic I’ve seen in a minute.

Alternative theory that layoffs were already planned so voluntarily accepting the union was seen as either less legally risky or a reputation play like “we accept the union voluntarily and get public good will so they will not think we’re shitty when we do layoffs”

You can get halfway there with a book on Libby, even if you just open the sample of an ebook you can search any term and see some context from the page it’s on. It’s not as good as search inside the book but depending on the need it does the trick!

Every scene in a final destination movie is about noticing objects and then someone dies

okay I'll bite, my favorite genres are:
- someone has been MURDERED and the killer is one of us!!
- this really sexy person hates me and couldn't possibly secretly be in love with me
- time loop
- there's a romance in my murder mystery
- woman on the verge of a nervous breakdown

Louisiana coerced unhoused people into an unheated warehouse – and paid $17.5m for it Dozens of New Orleanians were bused to a site with insufficient heating and blankets days before the city is to host the Super Bowl

In preparation for today’s Super Bowl in New Orleans, state police forced over 100 homeless men and women onto buses under threat of arrest, dumping them in an unheated warehouse. Tents destroyed, belongings lost. Press are barred from the warehouse.

The price tag for this cruelty? $17.5 million

Oh nooooooooo

I’m usually really good at decluttering, but I just looked at my drawer of cork tops and I thought to myself, I can’t get rid of any of these cork tops

If I owned a bar and someone came in saying "I'm here to start shit, harass your regulars and make your business suck" I would simply kick them out

Oh no too haunted

My muscles for writing tweet-like content are totally atrophied but I am going to go back to the gym I swear

I’m not like this but that doesn’t mean I don’t respect it
