I took a screenshot and shared it with my offline friends. We laughed so much! I really needed that. Thanks!

Frodo don’t destroy the ring, you’ll just be playing into their hands by reacting at all imho

Every sensible country should be taking these steps now. However, Britain is opting to cut university jobs and discourage foreign visitors instead.

In "American Gods," it's explained that planes fly because they're powered by collective hope: the shared belief that the plane will safely stay in the air and not crash.

I’m not anti-science but let’s be honest: it’s kind of bullshit that planes work. Seems like a scam.

Pay more, everyone. Data scientists earn almost this much even at entry-level positions.

i’m sorry, i’m tired of this shit. there was no pronoun policing. i have encountered exactly three or four land acknowledgments in like ten years, and the most you’ll hear about “intersectionality” is in liberal nonprofits. this is just freefloating resentment masquerading as analysis.

Elissa Slotkin told Tim Alberta why her response to Trump's joint address did not touch on a laundry list of priorities from various advocacy groups.

None of this would seem a revolutionary approach to rhetoric. Still, it was fraught with risk all the same: Democrats “have been on their heels since the election,” Slotkin told me, and the party faithful have been agitating since January 20 for someone, anyone, to stand up to Trump. The announcement of Slotkin had already been met with grumbling from progressives online; anything short of oratorical firebolts would confirm the complacent, feckless approach of the D.C. governing class. Slotkin viewed the stakes somewhat differently: This speech could, at least symbolically, commence a new chapter of Democratic Party opposition to a president whose success is inextricable from the tone-deaf ineptitude of Democratic Party opposition. If her team’s resistance to Trump’s first term was marked by hysteria and hashtags—all the land acknowledgments and pronoun policing and intersectionality initiatives—Slotkin saw last night the opportunity to set a different tone.
