I’m not an especially virtuous person, but I do try to live a life wherein my leaked texts wouldn’t ruin my entire goddamn life.

I looked at the Pacific Ocean for a long time this weekend, reminding myself that I’m still here, drawing breath.

my favorite robert redford story is that mike nichols considered him for dustin hoffman's part in THE GRADUATE. during their conversation nichols asked redford something like, "have you ever struck out with a girl?" and redford's response was basically, "i don't understand the question"

They are DEFINITELY a Eugene band. I saw them at least six times in middle and high school 😂

Ok but how dare you besmirch Eugene, Oregon’s most well-known 90s ska band.

Sam Richardson from an episode of Netflix show I Think You Should Leave, saying “I honestly hope he dies.”

Did someone make a Rowdy “I Did It!!!!” gif and if so can I please have it #mariners

At this point, I don’t care if you regret your vote. I care if you learned from it and won’t get snowed by a huckster who shares your bigotry in the future.

Like at previous points in history, the only way that absolutely dopes with monarchy- or fascism-poisoned brains were ever shaken loose of patterns of frothing self-owning was when they, themselves, were left without faces and the leopards were sated.

My one glimmer of hope, assuming any of us survive & acknowledging that the more marginalized you are, the less likely that is, is that historically, people really are so dull that they require their own personal Find Out phase in order to get on board with functioning progressive policies.

I’ve been listening to this book and my main takeaway is that every single moment of levity or jest on this app is an act of defense. The Bad People are only able to take hold when the Good Ones stop showing up.

What’s that? The commoners can’t afford eggs? Let them eat Teslas, then! 😘

Hey DOGE, I found some unelected bureaucrats with bloated salaries!

Imagine coming up with a plan that is simultaneously so harmful and so shitty at once. You’d have to be a deeply bigoted diaperbaby in a perpetual k-hole or something.

When yr VA benefits are delayed or yr Nana gets scammed and there’s no one to report it to or you go to a Nat’l park w/ no toilet, remember: there’s no actual gov’t cost savings.

Those workers rightfully collecting unemployment. They’re still getting paid — just not to do their jobs.

ooh I hope someone tosses chum in the water and asks who the best Elphaba was

Can you imagine being wealthy enough to pay an entire troll farm just to gas you up online but being such a skinsuit that instead you’re like, in k-hole, alone, playing Fortnite, talking about yourself in the 3rd person, saying everything you wish your dad had said to you? BLEAK.

About once daily I think about how Elon invented a younger, more handsome imaginary friend to hang out with across multiple platforms and it’s not even the 27th weirdest thing he’s done.

Jezebel screenshot: Solidarity With These Strippers Who Dressed as Their Club's OSHA Violations on the Picket Line Star Garden dancers locked out from the Los Angeles strip club dressed as broken glass, bed bugs, a hole in the stage and more to protest working conditions.

Just realized that the actress who plays Diamond in “Anora” was one of the sex workers that unionized a club in North Hollywood (on the left below). She’s also part of a stripper co-op. Lindsey Normington is a real one

One of my greatest professional regrets is that I and my cohort were unable to bully Chris Rufo into oblivion when he was just a lil Seattle-area shitheel.

Also yes it was a doodle

I will be taking no questions on this.

Would love 800% more of this energy from the Dems!

I’ve done many silly things in my life. I’ve said some real boneheaded stuff.

Somehow, though, I’ve never stood in front of the entire world and made a gesture universally known to be that of a widely-decried and reviled fascist dictatorship.

My new thing is that I’m going to start calling mediocre white men “DEI hires” and then if someone is like tHaTs nOt WhAt iT mEaNs I can ask them to define it so that they have to admit that “DEI hire” is a short way of saying “I think white dinguses are always the most qualified.”

“Oh GIRL, you’re about to hit those goals!! I HOPE YOU’RE READY TO WINNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN”
