I heard a bird sing
In the dark of December
A beautiful thing
A sweet to remember
"We are closer to Spring
than we were in September."

Make sure to get outside today, make use of every bit of daylight we have and when the night comes, know that tomorrow will be that little bit lighter 🙌🏻

WCK teams delivered our first meals in Burlington, Washington to first responders and families impacted by recent severe weather. Residents of nearby Mount Vernon came to pick up sandbags to fortify their homes, and we made sure they also had sandwiches in hand before they left. #ChefsForWashington

There's a super easy test for the eternal question, Is this guy an asshole? bc if a guy uses AI /Chatgpt, that habit makes it easier than ever been before in the history of the universe to get that answer quickly, so it has 1 good use I suppose.
Also, I've always disliked Fallon. What a maroon....

Jimmy Fallon: "And do you use ChatGPT when raising your baby?"
Sam Altman: "I cannot imagine figuring out how to raise a newborn without ChatGPT."

But it's like the Eagles say, "She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys she calls Sven"
People are responding to this saying the line is sweetest friend, not Swedish friend. I don’t think there’s any way of knowing for sure since Johnny Cash passed away and he wrote it. But what are you going to do, *taste* all your friends? Pretty sure it’s Swedish.
In the song “Hurt” by Nine Inch Nails, further popularized by Johnny Cash, do they sing:
“What have I become, my Swedish friend?”
Like you’re existentially asking your pal Bjorn.
or is it more like
“What? Have I become my Swedish friend?”
Like you may have become Bjorn.
“What have I become, my Swedish friend?”

SNAP is a political football, but making sure the USA ate used to be a national security issue: "up to a quarter of draftees called up via the Selective Service Act of 1940 were malnourished and unfit to serve"
Today, we can't even see feeding people as being in the national interest.

There is more than enough funding for SNAP. The Trump administration is using food insecurity as a political weapon.

The dialogue is a whole other thing but the bit about "fuck you shoot me I'll die for this shit" and the reaction is the crux here, from Gandhi's time on down, no authoritarian in history ever knows how to respond to this and it's why it beats them whenever deployed
"Man goes scorched earth on ICE agents kidnapping people in his hometown."

I would like to thank RFK jr for making America think about a baby penis every time we see his face.
Besides linking Tylenol in pregnant women to autism, RFK Jr. now says circumcision is part of the reason why kids are autistic.
"Children who are circumcised early have double the rate of autism, and it's highly likely because they're given Tylenol. None of this is positive..."

This is a through-line of everyone in any position of power in America now. A generation of leaders who have zero understanding of why anything in society is done the way it is for a reason, and a revanchist zeal to tear it all down because they don’t see how it benefits their power personally.
I know these guys are all dumber than a sack of hammers, but it is fascinating to see the military decide “logistics are gay” in real time

Every time I see TPUSA all my brain sees is The Pus … and my brain is 100% accurate. So all the Kirk drama and press is nothing but a disgusting infected boil.
I didn't watch any of the Charlie Kirk Memorial and Fireworks Extravaganza.
Did they address this classic moment from Turning Point USA's long history of Respecting Its Opponents or has that been completely written out of the story?
