A woman got set on fire in the city last night during an argument with a man on the blue line.

The suspect is still at large, but news is likely salivating at the hope that they will be an immigrant or homeless, otherwise this story will be useless to them

Nothing says "not gay" like posting pictures of you with your much younger wife who married you for money, picking fights with your (now ex) white girl bestie, and canceling your day so you can crash out to the phantom soundtrack before dramatically flying off to your gold-encrusted florida estate.

I don't know if there's been enough exploration of the stress of being the poorest person in a friend group

When given a choice, I will generally use Affirm or Klarna to pay for something, just so my unpaid student debt can watch me pay off a loan and feel bad about itself

*sung to the tune of the "Whose Line is it Anyway?" hoedown song*

♬. I like to go to Aldi,
I go there every day!
I always go to Aldi,
I go there 'cause I'm gay!

Cause when it comes to groceries,
And when it comes to stores,
If you're homosexual,
It's all you can afford! ♬

Pizzagate: If you replace the word “hot dog” with “little boy” and “pizza party” with “child sex orgy,” you will see the lengths these elites go to cover up their crimes.

Real elite emails: Send me nude pictures of those 8th graders we abused last weekend post-haste! I am the Ambassador to Turkey.

Someone was just so fucking rude on here to me that I had to take a breath to avoid quote-posting them because I don't need to return their Twitter-ass behavior.

But seriously.

There are enough shitheads in the world. You don't need to be one here.

I do love Quitely's style. It's quirky like a Bachalo or Paul Pope, but also cinematic like a Hitch or Cassidy.

Literally the intersection of my two favorite types of comic art
Wolverine, by Frank Quitely. Which succeeds in making a somewhat over-familiar - albeit still interesting - character seem fresh & fun & fascinating.

We are out here fighting over whether we should keep burning the atmosphere or if people should have enough food to eat, and meanwhile the spiders are learning to cooperate. You do not want the spiders to cooperate.

Ichabod Crane looking ass telling anyone they aren't manly enough for his taste
I’m sorry, but a goofy looking guy who grew up a privileged son of a pediatrician and has a phd in social theory from the university of Goethe and started in tech by investing an inheritance left to him by his grandfather talking about being a “dude” is very, very funny to me.
