If you're going to tag my joke, "like" my joke as well.
That way I'll know that you're playing along.
If you don't "like" my joke but you tag it or comment on it anyway, I can only assume that you disliked my joke and felt the need to try to improve it.

Ohio University is not to be confused with The Ohio State University.
I genuinely did not know that OU had a basketball team, and one of my sisters is an alumnus.

If writing is so easy why do people argue that they can’t do it without the pablumatic verbiage extruder
And if it’s so difficult then why do people think it’s not labour and writers are not workers

Australia recorded ZERO cases of cervical cancer in women under 25 for the first time since they started tracking the cancer in the 80s.
This is the power of vaccines.

The "DOGE is gone" articles are clickbait but this one gets it closer to the truth: DOGE is not gone, it just claims to have "no centralized leadership" anymore -- in other words, its leadership is hiding in an attempt to avoid blame.
DOGE no longer has ‘centralized leadership’ under White House tech team, personnel head says
The team that was altered to house DOGE — formerly the U.S. Digital Service — is also still doing its own technology work across agencies.

Did Kash Patel ever take the FBI physical requirements like rank-and-file workers? Of course not. And if he tried, he’d fail the warm-up.
He’s too busy partying while working people keep this country running.
Happy holidays, Kash — actually… don’t.

One of the biggest shocks of my adult life was realizing there's a hidden division in society between people who think certain acts - cruelty, torture, murder - are inherently wrong, versus the majority of people who think there are no wrong actions, just incorrect targets.

Lots of people sharing this clip because it's funny and cathartic but I also genuinely believe it's important.

Howie Noel was always a hidden gem of an artist with his hallmark retro/caricature style and vintage, film noir aesthetic until he effectively went viral, thanks to Superman director James Gunn who discovered his work.

I just went on your website senator and I can't find a single thing on there about how troops can decide if an order is illegal and how you will help them if they decide such a thing.
Maybe work on that before you do the talk show circuit?

I once asked a bookseller at a large indie store how many people would have to buy a book for it to get the attention of the store buyer and cause an additional order and they said: Three.
I see some book piracy discourse, and, to make a positive argument in favor of buying books, your marginal ability to influence what books get published and support the careers of writers you like is massive compared to most other forms of media.

ICE deported a woman who owned a home in the US for 30 years. A judge banned ICE from deporting her to Sierra Leone where she had been tortured, so it deported her to Ghana, which kidnapped her and sent her back Sierra Leone anyway. ICE is part of this illegal conspiracy.

No bailouts. The US should extort these companies when the crash happens so they get minimal compensation in return for nationalizing the entire panopticon industry and then destroying it once harvested for socially useful parts. It won’t happen but it should
