yearly reminder to people insisting that we view Christopher Columbus as "a man of his time" that *the people responsible for the Spanish Inquisition* thought Columbus was out of pocket

Georgia Football remains the most glorious hedonic treadmill conjured by a punishing God

anyone who thinks this does not ever have to routinely interact with people with whom they do not share a common language

This is the biggest attack on free speech since the McCarthy era but it also has significantly less popular consensus behind it than the second Red Scare. It's being done on behalf of a minority faction led by the most unpopular president in modern history. Organizing against this can win.

I just married the love of my life in my dream wedding this year. I’m on the verge of being able to move home to be near my family after 10 years away. For the first time in my adult life I’m so happy and content, I would really like to not die in WWIII. Please I just want to enjoy being alive.

Hank Green’s idea on The Smartypants Society this week is the first idea I’ve ever seen on this show that I 100% unironically think that we, as a society, should definitely do.

I don’t remember who first tweeted this sentiment but it has stuck with me: Olympic broadcasts should feature one normal person in good physical health doing each event for comparison

Has any piece of “mystery box” style media ever ended in a satisfying and meaningful way?

Them birds is hell don’t they?

Tony Shai-Hulub is this anything?

Ever since I was a little kid, I wanted to be a Pop Tarts mascot in the Pop Tarts Bowl.

sesame street isn't supposed to make money. the post office isn't supposed to make money. not everything is supposed to MAKE MONEY

We don’t autotune major cultural moments nearly enough anymore.

Another year of Great British Bake Off, another year where I have to Google “stodgy”.

Likewise! Always enjoy your perspective on things!

Finally watching the Latin Grammys and I have definitely missed at least 18 mambos.

Highly recommend “Railbound”
