This is by far the most scathing review of Reddits petulant child-in-chief, and really, the most blatantly honest.

A conservative judicial activist arranged for the wife of Justice Clarence Thomas to be paid tens of thousands of dollars for consulting work just over a decade ago, specifying that her name be left off billing paperwork, according to documents reviewed by The Post
Judicial activist directed fees to Clarence Thomas’s wife, urged ‘no mention of Ginni’
Leonard Leo told GOP pollster Kellyanne Conway to give the spouse of the Supreme Court justice "another $25,000" and to bill a nonprofit organization called the Judicial Education Project.

Employers should entice people back to the office by offering a Golden Retriever Comfort Dog Benefit — it keeps the stress down.

You should really try irrigation with Dihydrogen Monoxide. It has a waterier taste than water.
This morning, I ground some roasted beans then irrigated them with water.

I drank the resulting liquid. And you won’t guess what happened next.

I experienced higher levels of energy and productivity.

And I want to share this experience with you.

Are you ready to join me on this journey?

And more authoritative.
This seems like a much smarter alternative to blue checks.

My dream is to open a llama petting zoo in Petaluma, CA called “Pet a Llama in Petaluma”.

There was a young Manning who'd Tweet,
Her posts were both clever and neat,
Then she found Bluesky,
And let out a sigh,
For Skeets made her Tweets obsolete. @xychelsea.tv
