Ah yes, that most hate-filled of constitutionally protected rights, peaceful protest πŸ™„πŸ™„πŸ™„

Love the whole β€œboys will be boys” attitude from the VP; I’d easily bet two million dollars that his response would be QUITE different if it was problematic rhetoric from young guys on the opposite side of the aisle. He’d be out screaming about degenerate youth so fast we’d get whiplash.

Pretty soon the once-swimming pool (turned press room) will magically be an in-house neurological care center. 🫠

This from the guy who titled his latest book β€œLions and Scavengers.” Ok, buddy.

I could write a more theologically interesting take on KPop Demon Hunters than whatever Thiel’s current sweaty proselytizing involves.

Look, this is basically the rich narcissist version of seeing Jesus in the burn patterns of your toast or whatever. The only difference is that because he has millions of dollars, we’re supposed to act like it’s brilliant instead of certifiable.

One of my all-time favorite Gene Wilder moments. I quote it all the time. 🀣

The cognitive dissonance and emotional detachment you’d have to practice in order to be part of this administration is tragic. A knowing practice of draining your own humanity.

Love how the Speaker of the House of the United States fairly regularly answers questions with some version of β€œNo clue, wasn’t paying attention.” It’s the most embarrassing attempt at obfuscation I’ve ever seen. β€œDon’t ask me; I’m an idiot!” πŸ€¦πŸ»β€β™€οΈ

I was the seventh grader who was JAZZED when we finally got what I considered respectable spelling words like β€œindispensable” and β€œmiscellaneous.” Words I’d been reading for years in the gigantic dictionary I was gifted after begging for it. Very normal, totally fine. 🀣

Yet another distraction to attempt cloaking this administration’s staggering corruption and ineptitude.

Just finished this to ring in October! Quite the vibe. An interesting little book. Found myself saying β€œAre the men ok?!” multiple times πŸ˜†

It heartens the poors to see such social engagements; gives everyone that feeling of normalcy. πŸ™„

Legitimately thought it was some sort of hair pick at first glance.

Just for my own plebeian understanding, I’d like someone to explain how you can have fun AND take no pleasure simultaneously.

Ah yes, the β€œenormous pain” of having billions of dollars at your disposal that you can use to purchase a website, thus reshaping it into a personalized propaganda endeavor. So difficult; such a burden.

This was exactly my first thought when I saw people all over FB having performative eureka moments due to this. THIS WAS THE THING THAT HAS REALLY LIT THE FIRE FOR YOU?! Yikes.

It was fascinating to watch all three men from my family of origin have the same tantrum in different flavors when I stopped being a mirror for them. Noted, gentlemen. βœ…

It’s like the worst Baptist preacher you’ve ever heard and Rush Limbaugh got together to write a fan fic. πŸ˜΅β€πŸ’«

Thank you for bringing this up. I’ll never forget when Kevin McCarthy mentioned this as the moment that made him a conservativeβ€”watching Carter β€œlecture” people on TV as a kid. πŸ™„ Well, never mind! I guess that doesn’t bother conservatives anymore; now it’s noble patriotism to reduce! 🫠

God, that interview is incredible. SHE was incredible. An iron first in a velvet glove.

Holy cow, YES. Whenever I read something like this, I always feel like it’s just Rush Limbaugh BS in snazzier, modern gift wrap.

My first thought was that this sounds strangely similar to arguments I hear from crunchy, homesteading types. An earthy minimalist would totally say this, I think. πŸ˜‚ A very strange crossover moment.

The ruffle. The gathered waist. The slightly off-white cream color. 😳
