Still haven’t seen Heated Rivalry, but there was this one hockey team we used to play against when I was 14 that had a couple of guys who would circle jerk into a helmet before big games.

Going with whatever pizza is available at 2 a.m. when they’re waging an illegal war seems like a bad decision but also very in-step with everything this administration does. nypost.com/2026/01/03/w...
Pizza orders near Pentagon ‘suddenly surged in traffic’ during Venezuela attack — and it might be connected to bizarre theory
A pizza place near the Pentagon received an unusual rush in orders just an hour after the US launched its attack on Venezuela.

Back in my day, they used to at least make elaborate lies about yellowcake and aluminum tubes to justify an unjust war.

I feel like I can be the next Bernie Sanders. I won’t get into politics, but I think I can be his energy successor.

A man on the beach walked up to me and asked if I’ve ever considered shaving my back.

Spotted a 60-something man on the beach reading Olivia Nuzzi’s “American Canto.” His wife is nearby. She has Mar-a-Lago face and is wearing a trucker hat that says “Sun. Yoga. Champagne.” She’s been watching a live cam feed of her front door on a comically large tablet for the last 20 minutes.

thank you @annamerlan.bsky.social for profiling one of the most vile people in the media landscape. (Is the Saeed Jones quote in there? Yep.)
Before Benny Johnson positioned himself as devoted husband and heir apparent to Charlie Kirk, the former BuzzFeed journalist was partying hard with the same mainstream media he now denounces.

“There was a lot of sex happening. A psychoanalyst would have a field day.”
How Benny Johnson went from BuzzFeed plagiarist to MAGA's chief content creator
He did “some very bad things.” But in Trumpworld, that's a plus.

If only more men thought like @jasondiamond.bsky.social and were able to appreciate, understand, and actually want to emulate the role that mothers play in raising children.
Beautiful article about a dad becoming a mom.

Finding Motherhood in Fatherhood
When I became a dad, I realized that to be the parent I wanted to be, I actually had to become a mom — my idea of what a mom is — first.

@jasondiamond.bsky.social, who grew up where John Hughes lived and set most of his movies, wrote a book about all of that. I think he's probably written more about Home Alone, but this is the most recent thing
