Hey, Columbus and Franklin County, OH - here are a few food resources you may need, or know someone who does (and with 1 in 8 Americans receiving benefits that expire in 35 hours or so... you do know someone who does)

I’ve always thought people retrospectively remembering the movie Cry Freedom coming out is what lead to why we call it “The Mandela Effect”

I haven’t felt like posting much lately.
World is a little overwhelming.
I hop on meaning to post, but the first thing I always see is the next awful headline and I lose the vibe.
But I can’t curate myself completely away from the world.
So, only an unintentional lurker.

one of the things that confuses me about the seeming enthusiasm for AI girlfriends among a segment of young men is that when I was young you would have been relentlessly, brutally mocked for the idea of being such a failure with women that your girlfriend was on the computer

Every complaint about him that makes national media feels both forced, astroturfed attempts by establishment figures who'd rather not deal with him, and halfhearted, like the troops on the ground aren't trying to sell the narrative.
Across various private New York Facebook groups viewed by CNN – such as those for residents of the Upper East Side – some users have anonymously discussed potential plans to move out of the city following Zohran Mamdani’s primary win. cnn.it/3IpkOjr

BREAKING: ICE agents are complaining that every time they go out to abduct people, in unmarked cars, wearing masks and no uniforms or badges, protesters dump buckets of glitter on them so that everyone can tell they’re ICE for days afterward.

I don't know who should be more appalled - me when I realized just how massive an amount of money I spent at Target every year, or Target because WAAAAY more people than me dropped them over continual corporate cowardice... and, yes, tarrifs.
CNN: "Breaking just moments ago. New data showing consumers cut back spending sharply last month ... this does appears to at least partially be driven by a hangover from tariffs."
