I'm telling my grandkids this was The Hardy Boyz and Mick Foley.

Dude is panicking!
A screenshot of a tweet from Donald J. Trump, with the handle @realDonaldTrump, posted on a Friday night aboard Air Force One. The text is a long paragraph arguing that House Republicans should vote to release the Epstein files, stating, "we have nothing to hide," and calling the matter a "Democrat Hoax" meant to deflect from the Republican Party's successes. He emphasizes that the focus should be on Republican achievements, including the economy, "Affordability," reducing inflation, Historic Tax Cuts, investment in America, rebuilding the Military, securing the Border, deporting "Criminal Illegal Aliens," and his stance on transgender issues and "Men in Women's Sports." He concludes by calling the Epstein issue a "TRAP" and a "curse on the Democrats, not us," ending with "MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!"

And this picture was sent to me, because it's about 5 minutes from my house in Asheville. It's not confirmed who they are, but it's pretty sus.

If anyone is wondering what it's like in Charlotte right now.
A screenshot of a text-based social media post by "Jayne English" that appears to be from an account called "From the Alt NationalParkService." The text describes a sudden, dramatic change in the atmosphere of a city, referred to as "Charlotte." ​The post reads: ​"We wrote this to help you imagine how quickly a city can change under Trump: ​Charlotte was once a place of slow, easy mornings, coffee cups clinking in cozy cafés, jazz drifting through open doors on Tryon Street, families stepping onto the light rail with strollers and soccer bags. A city defined by banking towers and craft breweries, where weekends were measured by Panthers touchdowns, farmers' markets, and late-night debates about who served the best barbecue in town. ​By this weekend, that rhythm collapsed. ​Before sunrise, unmarked SUVs slid through quiet neighborhoods, and ICE agents moved in like a storm front. Residents described officers sprinting through parking lots, jumping fences behind small bakeries and mercados. Some said they watched people shoved to the ground, grocery bags splitting apart, oranges rolling into traffic, voices shaking as shouts ricocheted between brick storefronts. ​A café known for empanadas and music stayed shuttered, its metal grate pulled tight. A handwritten note hung on the door: Closed for the safety of our community. Just down the street, a weekend lunch spot told customers online: Too dangerous today. Please stay home. ​Parents kept children inside. Workers who normally clocked in before dawn called their bosses in fear. City bus drivers said they saw makeshift checkpoints near major intersections, where people waited in silence, shoulders tense, eyes fixed on the ground." A block of text from an online comment or article. The text reads: "The city that once celebrated diversity through food trucks, cultural parades, and church festivals found itself breathing differently doors locked, windows dark, conversations hushed. Neighbors said it didn't feel like protection; it felt like punishment. Not order, but intimidation. Operations were no longer about safety, but about fear, fear that reached families, workers, business owners, and even those with the legal right to be here. And in the quiet between sirens, the city wondered what it was becoming."

Well, I mean he was dead, so...
A screenshot of a post from the account "usapolitics.co" on a dark mode social media platform. The post claims: "The number of times Jeffrey Epstein visited... Clinton White House: 17 Trump White House: 0 The Media and Democrats left this out." The post uses the American flag and US politics emojis (C3 followed by the flag emojis) and is quoting the statement in quotation marks. The post has 299 likes, 409 comments, 15 reposts, and 14 shares.

Well, I didn't have bawling before lunch at work on my list of things to do today, but here we are.

The groom's best friend made a recording before he passed, so he could make sure he'd be there on his wedding day.

Many people forget that JD Vance was Jinsei Shinzaki's Manager in the WWF.
Two men pose against a blue backdrop. On the left, a man with a beard wears a white suit and white face paint, leaving his eyes and mouth exposed. He points at the other man with his right hand. The man on the right is shirtless, displaying numerous Asian characters tattooed across his chest and arms. He wears white pants and white hand wraps, and holds his hands together in a prayer-like gesture.

Fletcher is not amused by my shenanigans.
A fluffy, white dog, possibly a Standard Poodle or Labradoodle, is sitting down indoors, looking directly at the camera. A round, donut-shaped dog toy is perfectly positioned over its nose and mouth, covering part of its face. The toy has a blue fabric border and a center pattern of yellow, orange, and white geometric shapes resembling cubes or honeycomb. The dog's brown eyes and the rest of its face are obscured, but its pinkish-brown nose is visible through the center hole of the toy. The background shows a grey sofa and a multicolored, patterned blanket the dog is resting on.

Meme showing a tweet that says “Adam Silver says they’re using AI to look into why Achilles tears increased this season, per ESPN.” Above it, someone comments, “Allen Iverson has never torn his Achilles I don’t see how he could help,” jokingly misunderstanding “AI” as Allen Iverson. Below the text is a photo of a basketball player lying on the court in pain while a staff member checks on him, implying an Achilles injury.

So they're pushing self deportation now with monetary rewards?

This is at the Asheville, NC airport.
A sign in a black metal frame, positioned in what appears to be an airport terminal or government building. The sign, with a blue header, reads "Self-Deport with CBP Home and Leave on Your Own Terms" and "Claim a Free Flight and $1,000 for EACH Member of Your Family." It details a purported voluntary departure program for individuals in the U.S. without legal status, offering financial assistance and forgiveness of fines. The sign includes an image of a smartphone displaying the 'CBP Home' app, QR codes for the App Store and Google Play, and directs readers to a DHS website.

A digitally altered photo of the exterior of Citi Field, the baseball stadium for the New York Mets. A large, orange "Spirit Halloween" sign, complete with a spooky monster graphic, has been superimposed over the arched windows of the stadium's facade. A crowd of people is gathered on the plaza in front of the building on a sunny day.

I have had a lone wasp in my office for a little over a week now. I keep my door open all day, yet he (she?) doesn't leave. We have come to an agreement, though. I won't swat at him (her?) if he (she?) leaves me alone.

It does help keep people out of my office, though, when I want to be left alone.

Canada is actively trolling the United States and I'm here for all of it.
A screenshot of a Facebook ad from "Canada By Choice Immigration." The ad features a photo of a smiling Black man holding a large Canadian flag outdoors. The ad's text reads: "Dreaming of calling Canada home? We can help! With 60+ pathways to immigration, our experts will guide your transition every step of the way. Take the first step: get a free assessment now and start your journey today!" A red text box over the image says, "Start Your Journey Take Our Free Canadian Immigration Assessment Today!"

Great movie, eh?
A television screen shows a comedy skit with two men sitting in front of a large map labeled “GREAT WHITE NORTH.” They are surrounded by stacks of beer cases and bottles. One man, wearing a green toque and plaid shirt, points at the map while the other looks on. Subtitles at the bottom read: “OK, LIKE, NORMALLY, WE’D JUST HAVE GREAT WHITE NORTH, EH?” The TV is mounted on a wall above a shelf with a potted plant, decorative letters spelling “HOME,” and a blue vase.

Aliens land in my backyard: "Take us to your leader."

Me: *Dwight crying "thank you" gif*
A screenshot of a post on X.com from the verified account "All day Astronomy" (@forallcurious). The text of the post reads: "🚨BREAKING: The interstellar object is releasing Carbon dioxide (CO₂) rather than water (H₂O) or carbon monoxide (CO)—it has no tail —it's not a 'comet'." The accompanying image is a photograph from space. In the center is a bright, glowing blueish-white circular object with a soft halo. Surrounding it against the dark background are several white streaks, which are stars blurred by the long exposure, indicating the camera was tracking the central object.
