This is….INSANE. Like, more INSANE than regular insane.
Here's Trump spraying Al-Sharaa with his cologne, asking him how many wives he has..at the Oval Office.

Published, naturally, by the Syria team.

LA: “They took a US citizen father out and left a toddler in the backseat. Two heavily armed border patrol agents got in that car and drove the child and the vehicle away.”

What are we doing?

More of this please.
“FUCK AI” is turning into a movement.

After his Frankenstein Q&A at the Chinese Theater, Guillermo del Toro asked the audience to scream “FUCK AI.”

I was in Michaels today just to check out their new sewing and fabric section. It's still a disaster.

Between the nonchalant dinosaur, the pee pee pants, and a literal reverend getting shot in the face by a flashbang, this picture is the best book of the year.
Here's a photo of my friend and colleague, Jorge Bautista, getting shot in the face with a flashbang grenade. The ICE Agent is so afraid of Jorge (who was posing no threat) that he has wet himself. Please share this photo. Everyone needs to know what cowards ICE agents are.

No spoilers here, but every person who goes home on GBBS from this week on is a big deal. Very likable group and super talented.

"Keep ICE out of our workplaces. We can all say no to ICE."

Protesters are showing up outside Coast Guard Island in Alameda and slowing up traffic by walking back and forth through the intersection.

“Under-babied” is creepy as fuck. They’re all such skeevy weirdos.
Dr Oz: "Turns out that about 1/3 families don't have the number of babies they desire. They're under-babied. So this president committed to address that during the campaign and he's delivering on that today."

Wow, everybody but one on the Fox baseball pregame show is wearing dress shoes with their suit! Matt V's brown shoes are a bad choice, though.

Trump: "The person who actually got the Nobel Prize called today, called me, and said 'I'm accepting this in honor of you, because you really deserved it.' A really nice thing to do. I didn't say 'Then give it to me, though.'"
