You know you can like different Supermen at the same time, right? Like, you aren’t restricted to liking only one Superman. You can like as many as you want. George Washington invented America so you had that right.

This alt headline is amazing and I wish the LA Times stopped stunting excellence like this.
Let's pretend that my editors used my suggested headline -

Can't find Sriracha? Here's why the shortage is a sign of our harsh climate reality

Anyway, I get what Trump is going through.

The worst thing about this app for me is I don’t have enough co-workers on here to see me shit talk work and passive aggresively say it’s driving me to a dark place for them to maybe tell a boss there’s an issue and then a boss would reach out with concern and I know that’s childish but let me be.

For the Los Angeles Times, I went to stunt driving school so I could learn some sweet tricks and get in the next “Fast and Furious” movie. Let me join the family, cowards.
