If Jesus inspired you on Jan 1, AD 30 to save every bit of money you could get your hands on, and if you scraped together $650,000 per day since that day, and if in that time you neither spent any money nor earned any interest, you would have approximately the same amount of money as Elon Musk.

@jamestalarico.bsky.social is surging in the polls! Leading Colin Allred by 6%, but leading by a whopping 47-point edge among those who know both candidates.

So excited about this campaign!

The painful irony here is what the President is celebrating as a win is actually a massive corporation highlighting how fucking poor they know their customers are in his economy. They know no one who is buying Thanksgiving dinner at Walmart can afford last year’s meal at today’s prices.

What is the most perfectly balanced coffee drink, and why is it a cortado?

Happy accident!

I think I might have learned of the book from you here…

Definitely getting Strange and Perfect Account from the Permafrost vibes from @themountaingoats.bsky.social new banger, Armies of the Lord.

I’m not sure what’s worse: the assumed Trinitarianism or the ignorance of what Arianism is…

When did writers and translators of literature start using the word “sex” for vulva? And how do we make it stop? It’s so awful.

I first heard it in concert a couple years ago, and had the rare experience of being totally taken with it on first listen. When a woman standing behind me yelled, "Church," during the revelation lyrics, I knew I was not alone. 2/

Absolutely thrilled that Josh Ritter has now released Truth Is a Dimension (Both Invisible and Blinding) on all the streaming platforms.

No other song has captured my heart and revealed the world to me with this much clarity in the past 5+ years. 1/

Take note, writers. This is what your index should look like.

Yeah, he lost me at “I’m trying to write.” Are you, tho?

Why the Mark Cuban hate?

It was apparently started by the Salvation Army to honor those who distributed donuts to the troops during World War II. Seems like a good enough reason for all the Allies to jump in.

National Donut Day!

What I’m learning is that back sleeping is barbaric

I await your report!

Huh…

Back sleepers, talk to me: what the hell do you do with your toes?!

Do you let the sheets and blankets push them up toward your foot, stretching your calves? Or do you have them push forward, stretching the top of your foot and inevitably causing your calves to cramp multiple times a night?

When I booked this trip on July 21 as a surprise graduation gift for my boy, I had no idea we would be in for a championship season and witnessing the lifting of the trophy. What an incredible day! #YNWA #LFC

Gorgeous piece!

Our skill with prosthetics steals from us, and from them, the appreciation of the artistry of gifted actors who cannot fit into the right swimsuit even when the role calls for someone just like that. 5/5
