Reader, he wants The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald.

But no, that’s not it, it gets worse. He specifically wants the β€œloud one”, ie Dandy Warhols cover.

Sometimes I'll run into a friend on the street and they'll be like "I've been trying to reach you on Facebook"

It's like... You couldn't find a set of semaphores? You weren't able to get a classified ad in the town crier???

Winner winner.

@analiliafornj.bsky.social helped build the Working Families Party in New Jersey. Now her victory sends a clear signal that it’s a new day in New Jersey politics, and our country is ready for bold, working-class leadership. Let's talk about it:

There's a hot new move going around popular fronts where a near-contender in a contested primary endorses the leftier winner as a bulwark against the forces that ran the reactionary spoiler. It's called "Landering" and it kicks ass.

Someone from the Polish Olympic team better give Tara Lipinski a pierogi stuffy.

Rep. Delia Ramirez to DHS officials: "I have as much respect for you as I do for the last white men who put on masks to terrorize communities of color. I have no respect for the inheritors of the Klanhood and the slave patrol. Those activities were criminal and so are yours."

The other day a friend with kids messaged me to ask if I could explain how electro-magnetism works because their toddler had learned there was a connection from a youtube video and wouldn't stop asking questions.

I think people can manage to explain love to their kids much more easily.
always so funny to me when people are like β€œhow am I supposed to explain Gay to my kids?” my kid asks me way harder shit all the time. β€œwhy did they build the road this way? why are some people bad?” I don’t know. please ask me about Gay

My son just asked if he could get polka dots like mommy πŸ₯° I told him he likely will when he’s older. And I hope people don’t tease him as much as they teased me about them πŸ‘™

I'm convinced AI is our generation's radium - a discovery with genuinely useful applications in specific, controlled circumstances that we stupidly put in everything from kid's toys to toothpaste until we realised the harm far too late where future generations will ask if we were out of our minds.

Next time somebody tries to get me to justify the existence of the humanities, I’ll just point out how for the past two Super Bowls we’ve all jumped online and engaged in collective semiotics and hermeneutics of the half-time show as text.

Someone forgot the midnight rule:

Before midnight: you down?
After midnight: you up?
It’s always β€œare you a top or a bottom?” and never β€œare you charm, strange, up or down?”

Or let the actual synchro teams who do it year round compete, would also be cool
February 7, 2026 at 7:02 PM
The team skating competition is cute but they should make each country learn a synchro routine together and then I’ll be impressed

SAME!! Give me the good storyline Easter eggs every day of the week but I don’t need to know if the little spot is a booger or a hidden septum ring

I am so deep in the heated rivalry social media nest that I’m getting suggested posts about Ilya booger analysis
