Q: "What do you make of Pam Bondi saying she is going after hate speech? A lot of your allies say hate speech is free speech.”
Trump: “She'll probably go after people like you because you treat me unfairly. It's hate. You have a lot of hate in your heart. Maybe they'll come after ABC."

The reason I know the cancellation of AJLT was sudden is that there is no way SJP would have allowed so much screen time for a person to explain why their name was Epcot if she knew it was the series finale. #SATC

If this country wants to keep putting TV personalities in the White House, I suggest the next one we elect is Stephen Colbert.

This man is a living, breathing epitome of the “give me the confidence of a mediocre white man” meme.
NYT: One estimate finds that DOGE’s “firings, re-hirings, lost productivity and paid leave of thousands of workers” will actually COST taxpayers “upward of $135 billion this fiscal year.”

Watching ‘The Wheel of Time’ should be enough proof that Amazon should never have any creative control over James Bond. So much convoluted nonsense.

Had to google just to make sure this wasn’t an AI image. Nope — this is Ferdinand Porsche, Nazi party member and close friend of Hitler, who was later arrested on charges of being a war criminal and spent nearly two years in prison.

I truly believe all Americans should be required to work a customer service or food service job for at least one year — bartending, waiting tables, cash register, etc. Maintaining your cool around drunk or irritable people is a life skill you can’t fully learn elsewhere.
Just hit me why AOC is so good and brilliant at being the adult in the room with all the trashy losers making terrible choices around her. She used to be a bartender.

I’m legit a little concerned about Michelle Obama? I mean, absolutely GOOD FOR HER on not attending the inauguration, but skipping Carter’s funeral felt strange. Two major events and no actual reason? Am I just veering into Kate Middleton disappearance territory?!

Last week on #Outlander, Claire was like “General Lee? I don’t recognize that name.” And I was like, “He shit the bed at the Battle of Monmouth, you in danger, girl!”
Sure enough, this week’s episode is the Battle of Monmouth. Thanks, #Hamilton lyrics, for being a solid history primer!

True story: We lived in Germany the year my kid turned 2. When we moved back to the U.S., his dentist immediately knew which teeth he had pre-move vs which came in abroad. Just a few months without fluoridated water caused obvious setbacks to his tooth health.

RFK Jr. wants fluoride out of drinking water. Oregon shows what’s coming.
Fluoride is added to water to strengthen teeth and reduce cavities, but communities are abandoning the practice because of health concerns.
