Congrats & well deserved!

Y'all sell tshirts and/or bumper stickers? I would like to buy those things.

I hope I have given fidelity, and that everyone viscerally understands:
You will have to come through me.

IRS asks for public input on free tax filing options to inform congressional report | Internal Revenue Service IR-2025-85, Aug. 21, 2025 — The IRS invites the public to participate in an anonymous feedback survey on tax preparation and filing options, which will run through Sept. 5, 2025.

The IRS wants Americans to weigh in on Direct File, the agency's free tax filing program.

We already know Direct File has been widely popular and successful.

The program could save Americans billions annually between filing fees and time costs.

Want a trillion hits on YouTube? Get a bunch of kindergarteners who live in DC, Chicago, NYC, and LA to read grown republicans’ tweets about how scared they are of those cities

Could anyone else hear Sophie immediately reacting to this?

I feel like I *should* love the guy, but no dice.

My ability to handle Tim Burton's peccadilloes has diminished.

That's clearly her neck, unnipped, tucked or lifted.

Does AI trip on electric mushrooms?

Or the Post-Fantasy Beatles Lennon classic Imagine (Dragons)

I need a new job.

My grandma *hated* that Paul Bunyon statue in Atlanta. She'd almost go cross-eyed about it, lol.

holy shit a guy who was born in Uganda listed himself as African American on an old college application this is certainly bigger news than the concentration camp in Florida

The Zizians are having a moment. Stuff You Should Know had an episode about them recently also.

The other three are so pointless. They'd be like the horsemen of snark, bark and vomit. Annoying, but not capable of doing much on their own.

The idea that pro-trans movements led to anti-trans sentiment is egregiously out of touch with reality. Increased LGBTQ representation led to historic shifts in public opinion toward the community. The aggressively bigoted and violent campaigns that lied about trans people are clearly responsible

@chrisshiverdecker.bsky.social I assume you've scoured the grocery stores and gas stations of Alabama for these?

Pete Hegseth couldn't hold Tammy Duckworth's jock.

Still a better timeline

Breaking News Consumer's Handbook 1. In the immediate aftermath, news outlets will get it wrong. 2. Don't trust anonymous sources. 3. Don't trust stories that cite another news outlet as the source of the information. 4. There's almost never a second shooter. 5. Pay attention to the language the media uses. - "We are getting reports"... could mean anything. - "We are seeking confirmation"... means they don't haveit. - "[News outlet] has learned"... means it has a scoop or is going out on a limb. 6. Look for news outlets close to the incident. 7. Compare multiple sources. 8. Big news brings out the fakers. And photoshoppers. 9. Beware reflexive retweeting. Some of this is on you.

In just 130 days, Elon...

-Secured even more contracts

-Derailed at least 40 fed investigations of his corporations

-Gutted agencies that regulate his business

-Installed loyalists throughout the government

Elon has fallen out with Trump, but he got exactly what he wanted.

Somehow, and I don’t know how yet, we will be informed that the whole Trump-Musk feud is Joe Biden’s fault.

Very few things would make me happier than a very reduced Elon.

For some reason I don't believe him.
