I know antifa isn't a real organization because I don't get 40 texts a week from them asking for donations.

If you watch Jaws backwards, it is a heartwarming story about a shark who

Wife leaves for the weekend and you try out some seafood recipes (which she abhors), catch up on laundry, and fill in some Kurosawa blindspots (as in, nearly all of the man's work). This is what real men do.

Question for the guy at the next gas pump with three Trump flags on his trailer, anti-Biden stickers, “SHUT THE FUCK UP” cutoff shirt, and white rap blasting lyrics about women’s sports and Black Lives Matter:

1) How complicated was the algorithm from which you sprung?

2) Aren’t you exhausted?

Love that Netflix went full Hitchcock this month.

And Harrison Ford has done way too few roles where he plays a romantic goof. He’s good at them.

Wife refers to the top of every month is my Christmas - as I excitedly window-shop all the streamers for “just added” titles.

Thus, the end of every month is Finals Week, as I cram in the “leaving soon” titles. So goes my #LastFourWatched.

The GOP wanted to impeach Biden for a fake $5M bribe from Ukraine that was made up by a guy sitting in prison for lying about it, but they’re cool with a $400M plane from Qatar. Do I have that right?

Genuinely has anyone *ever* been owned so badly as a man who converts to a new religion as an adult and sorta makes it his whole thing only to see the literal head of that religion rebuke his entire deal and then they choose the NEXT head of the religion specifically because he doesn't like you

@newsjennifer.bsky.social on the gripping and impactful DOGE reporting by local news outlets: "It would be both ironic and so very American if the rich and powerful oligarchs were finally stopped by the underfunded newsrooms and working-class reporters." jenniferschulze.substack.com/p/local-news...
Local news deserves high marks for coverage of the doge fallout
Reporters are telling gripping human stories, connecting the dots from DC to main street, going beyond acronyms to explain what government agencies do & giving voice to concerns of regular people

Gregg is a former Marine and Forest Service ranger. He's saved the lives of hikers dangling off a cliff or going through cardiac arrest, and he's bravely fought forest fires to save small rural towns.

100% of his salary is paid by WA state.

Elon fired him. Share his story.
