Stephen Miller just said the quiet part out loud claiming that Trump has plenary authority when it comes to deploying troops. (Plenary means full authority.) After making the statement, he froze completely, like a deer in headlights. The video is worth watching.

Y’all the new EO on Memphis is absolutely wild to me. Like infuriating, stop coming for my cities, but laughably ridiculous.

It name drops the Pyramid as an “historic landmark.”

…you mean the Bass Pro Shop?

…That thing we built in the long-ago Year of Our Lord 1991????

Restaurant hosts, I beg of you: if someone comes in alone to dine, there are so many ways to greet them that don’t belittle them. “Just you?” tells me that I am not as welcome as guests dining in company and makes me ashamed to be in the space. “Is the bar ok?” tells me I don’t rate a table.

All 800 National Guard troops Trump ordered into the streets of Washington this week are now mobilized. The lengths he’ll go to just to distract from the Epstein files is astounding.

A century ago, there was none of this woke food safety. Listeria and Cronobacter contamination was just a fact of life! Sure, way more people died horribly, but
USDA has eliminated two food safety advisory committees for microbiological contamination and meat inspection. Most recently, they had been reviewing regulatory approaches in response to the fatal Listeria outbreak from Boar’s Head meats and fatal Cronobacter contamination in powdered infant formula
USDA eliminates two food safety advisory committees
The U.S. Department of Agriculture has eliminated two committees that advise it on food safety, the agency said on Friday, raising concerns about government oversight of the food supply as the Trump administration seeks to downsize the federal bureaucracy and slash costs.

We’re baking cats. I mean cookies. And definitely not treating the cookies like they’re cat toys. Nope.

I've just learned that cranberries are not actual berries and GODDAMNIT why are berries so full of lies and deceit, how hard is it to have fruit standards

Fuck it, I'm making the call here

Nothing is a berry anymore

Everything is a fucking legume now

Cranberries are Bog Peanuts

Deal with it

Nobody:

My brain: "Dolphin milk cheese is a thing that could technically exist."

If I have to live with this horrifying realization, so do you.

At the moment social media is very much like a high school cafeteria, which each instance being a table:

Mastodon: Tech nerds
Threads: Popular crowd
Bluesky: Weirdos and stoners
TikTok: Theater kids
Former Twitter: Incels and trolls
Facebook: Teachers and staff
This is hilarious, given how much of mastodon is dunking on Bluesky for being influencers
