Quality performance art. Easy to parse, thematically relevant, kinda gross. Love it.

Oh Trump's hand is REALLY fucked up. And the sausage fingers are not a good sign either.

I've never understood why he has his face painted orange. It has always looked like shit.

This sort of pricing is absolutely immoral.

I would criminalise it.

I refuse to use these on principle, but you'd be able to make some easy money betting against this on prediction markets.

I got an electric foot warmer for under my desk today, because my feet are cold so much in winter.

However, I think they are mis-advertising this device. It is actually a cat-magnet. My cats have fought each other more than 3 times already over the right to sprawl over it and curl around my feet.

When we say history repeats, what you should take from that is to look to the past, so that you can avoid the same mistakes in the future. Rosa must learn that her actions have consequences. But it's not like the woman she let fall would come back. Would she?

Washington- they’re trying the internet age restriction stuff here. Do you want to give up *your* privacy because someone else can’t properly parent *their* children? Comment, call, don’t let it pass!
Do you live in Washington State?

I need you to do two things:

1) Go here (app.leg.wa.gov/billsummary?...) & read HB 2112.
2) Go here (app.leg.wa.gov/pbc/bill/2112) & leave a comment urging your representatives to vote AGAINST the bill.

This is SERIOUS shit. Please!

I saw an online review for a pho restaurant that complained that the broth was so salty that she had to dilute it with water to eat it.

I am old enough to remember after November 2008, Mitch McConnell got his caucus together and said "Dems have all the majorities and the Presidency. We are going to oppose EVERY BILL, EVERY NOMINATION AND DENY HIM EVERY VICTORY POSSIBLE."

And they did exactly that.

Dems, not so fuckin' much.

They literally call getting married and having kids right out of high school “the success sequence” and encourage low income people to do it so that the middle class is freed up to pursue higher ed and higher paying jobs provided they still pump out a bunch of kids
