Aw, the part where Triple H talked about Chyna. I’m glad he recognized her role in his career.

(Now get her into the HOF on her own.)

Weird Al singing “Rainbow Connection” with the Yo Gabba Gabba gang at Coachella is going to break me.

DJ LANCE ROCK on stage at Coachella and the Yo Gabba Gabba gang is killing it.

I find myself repeating “The day is always darkest before the dawn” every day, multiple times per day.

Used this analogy when explaining to the teen, but to point out that in the end, when the hyenas realize Scar has destroyed everything, they turn on him. Simba doesn't kill him; his own underlings tear him apart.

Bye bye Duke Tim Ratliff in the White Lotus in a Duke shirt, pointing a gun at his head

It really happened

It’s a long story but this has always been a beacon.

Alternate names I’m considering for my usual WeWork location because the people here…it’s out of control:
- Brodeo

Well it appears I have plans today.

Delighted to be spending my morning with @corybooker.com. Also, anyone who thinks a vegan diet is deficient, this man has been on his feet speaking for 12+ plus hours.

‘The Interview’: Chuck Schumer on Democrats, Antisemitism and His Shutdown Retreat The Senate minority leader discusses the backlash to his vote on the Republican spending bill, how he sees his role within the party and his new book.

I was willing to give him a modicum of grace, thinking maybe his vote was an intentional act to protect others up for re-election in vulnerable districts.

Hey @dennismyers.bsky.social, I have an idea for Tuesday night!

Why did Trump put “guts” in quotes? Is it because they exist as a hypothetical, in name only?

Observation: Al Green and Jasmine Crockett, two of the Trump administration’s most vocal critics and beacons of light for those of us horrified by all that’s happening, are both Democrats - from *Texas.*
