Your hand opens and closes, opens and closes. If it were always a fist or always stretched open, you would be paralyzed. Your deepest presence is in every small contracting and expanding, the two as beautifully balanced and coordinated as birds' wings

Please be conscious if you protest this weekend that there are feds at the protest. They look like you and they sound like you, not like Steve Buscemi in that one clip with the skateboard. Thinking you can spot them is self delusion. Nobody you haven’t met needs to know your last name.

what's savvy about R's making such a stink about Stephen King saying "Charlie Kirk said gays should be stoned to death" is now all your google search results are King apologizing instead of the time Kirk definitely did say that

my father-in-law is a β€œI know a guy” Guy. sadly all the old Guys are aging out of the Guy Economy. Guys are fundamentally incompatible with Hustle Culture because it’s not about β€œwinning” a deal, it’s about collecting favors and goodwill in a mutually-beneficial cycle. protect your local Guy Economy

1 Interviewer: Do you promise you will love us unconditionally?
2 Interviewer: And value your employer above your friends and family?
3 Person: Haha no, I just want to make money.
4 Interviewer: Look me in the eyes and tell me you would jump on a live hand grenade to protect this Wendy's.

Freakier Friday? Terrible title. The same thing happened to them once before, which makes this Friday inherently less freaky than the first one

I’m gonna be honest: if I saw Char Aznable in person, I would immediately hit him with a shovel. No question, no hesitation. And if I couldn’t find a shovel, I would try to find another swingable heavy object that would work. I hope you all understand.

The most interesting fact about Hulk Hogan is that as a kid in France, Andre the Giant sometimes got driven to school by playwright Samuel Beckett

Are we doomed to it, Lord, chained to the pendulum of our own mad clockwork, helpless to halt its swing? This time, it will swing us clean to oblivion.

what is the perfect weather in Celsius? 20 degrees. Meaningless. An irrelevant number with not connotations.

What is the perfect weather in Farenheit? 69 degrees. Case closed.

ALTERNATIVELY maybe straight up Alpha Primogeniture? Or something more like the Ottoman system where there’s always an interregnum after the king dies and it’s just expected for the siblings to all kill each other and the last one standing inherits

That or being an Alpha is seen as such an important symbol of Virility it creates a culture where Betas in noble families just put on an act to be seen like Alphas.
