when I hear people hacking on the homeless (not trying hard enough, just want drugs, freeloaders by choice, prefer to steal than to work) I wish I could explain to them how hard it is to act in your own best interest in a world that's devoted itself to enhancing your misery.

Do you (I'm sorry if you've covered this) count things that scare you, personally, as horror reads even if they may not be classed as horror formally? I'm thinking of Tell Me An Ending by Jo Harkin specifically which is not horror but I found it so.

Someone tell my mom the snark is paying off

Also my fave part of this is that if you listen with headphones you can still hear him muffling his laughter after they cut away from him 😂

CNN anchor can't help but laugh as Trump Cabinet member brutally mocked by official

A Portland City Council member made a CNN anchor chuckle Thursday after calling Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem a "renowned puppy killer" who is "afraid of protesters wearing frog costumes and chicken costumes."
Angelita Morillo, a Portland City Council member, had CNN's Boris Sanchez laughing with her comments about the visit with DHS official Noem, as city and state leaders have blatantly told the Trump administration that they do not want the National Guard in Portland, Oregon.

This was a comment in a raw story post about you making the CNN anchor chuckle
"Who is this woman? She looks like she's maybe 15???"

Kristi Noem is standing on the roof of the ICE building here in Portland trying to act like she’s bravely observing the insurrection (there’s like 5-10 people nearby yelling profanity at her) and she’s started telling the feds to shoot incendiary rounds in to a nearby lot to get fire for her LARP.

Portland is big on kazoos, or at least was when I was a bit younger and fierier. Fiery-er. When I was out there running and gunning.

hella-awkward KATU reporter feels way more comfortable off camera. His narration just improved fourteen thousand percent

having your job in the weirdest place I've ever met by a long shot sounds like it would be indescribable at best =)

I've already described to my son a little of what it's going to feel like trying to, well, explain things to his friends for the rest of his life, and then instead of heralded as the Truthbringer, being met with Looks

Mines? oh no Nutty Putty was a cave. Okay. Whew. Still not okay. She writes CREEPY. She did a couple of Choose Your Own Adventures on Twitter before it cessed, and they were EXTRAORDINARY. I love it when writers are cool.

Real time look at the ICE facility in #Portland thanks to KATU. Navigate to their website for the livestream. There's a giraffe shaking ass by the axolotl now

A still shot of a bunch of costumed celebrants and maybe ten protestors standing around with some snipers up on the ICE building for literally nothing
