Car buffs: That Alfa Romeo isn't going anywhere but to the shop
A jokey meme with two photos of a car's cockpit with steering wheel, brakes and accelearator pedal visible. The first photo is captioned "normal people," the second, "physicists." The "normal people" photo has the accelerator pedal labeled "gas", the brake pedal labeled "brake," the "physicists" version has both the accelerator and brake pedals labeled "accelerator," because physicists.

Seriously I love this freakin guy
Standup comedian Ken Chang's parody LinkedIn post from August 22, 2025: "A thief on a motorcycle snatched my phone while I was on the street 2 years ago. I thought I'd never hear from him again. Last week I received a phone call. It was the thief. He noticed on my phone there was a PDF of my book. He read it and gave up crime to start a small business. Today, that company is worth £252 million. He decided to give £2 million for my contribution. Profit is important, even when you've been crimed. Here's the thing: this was planned. I walk around with a dummy phone that just has my entrepreneurship books on. I've been waiting for a thief to take that phone and learn something. It's finally paid off. Prison isn't the answer. Business e-books are."

I guess at least we don't do the pledge of allegiance like this anymore.

Okay, so I'm no Tishaura booster, but it's still interesting to me that the PAC funding these attack mailers is run by a melanin deficient 84 year old psych doc in Fenton.

You don't vote here Al, mind your own business.

One of the single most reliable indicators of a terrible boss / terrible leader is if they use phrases like "my staff", let alone "95% of my staff live with their parents." Good lord.
Screenshot of a comment from @90sdemocrat.bskysocial.com: "Did you not read what i said? I said high school kids. Pay attention. 95% of my staff live with their parents. Why would this law include this part of the labor force? These f-ing idiots in CA did not think through this law. That was my point. It was meant for the single mom, not teenager girl"

Thank you Clownstrike for this helpful infographic
