Had a terrible nightmare that my mother had a mental health episode and adopted one of those monkeys that wear diapers inside.

Not even halfway through January but this is the most 2026 headline.
Multiple monkeys are on the loose in St. Louis. And AI generated images are complicating the effort to find them.

Yeah ive ended up with a lot of american military friends through playing GTA a lot and most of them can't WAIT to tell people to never enlist ever. (Its how you can tell if someone is stealing valour or not in my experience.)

I was in a VC once with her and a dude who clearly was in actual love with her by that point and he mentioned joining ICE when his time was up, and I think having two girls at once go "what? Ew, that's pathetic, dude, what the fuck" made him decide to become a gym teacher in under like a minute.

Girl i know on discord told me that she befriends a lot of young guys in the military she meets playing milsim games, and naturally they end up interested in her bevause she's a girl that plays milsim. She mocks them if their post military plans include ICE. They drop those plans real quick.

one of the most effective weapons we have against fascism is mockery, especially when its really funny
It occurs to me all the yelling at ICE in MPLS isn't merely funny. Getting made fun of like this is awful for morale. ICE is losing field officers faster than it can wave them through training, and a big part of it is how little of this these little weasels can take.
ICE at Midway Target and seem to possible be leaving. Lots of community members here

Ken still best boy tho
I tried re-watching Mad Men and had to stop. I thought it'd be because Joan's entire story hits so close to home and would upset me but it ended up being that it REALLY made me miss smoking. Like so bad. I would kill a man for a smoke right now.

That Grok still has payment processing, when everyone I know — artist or gamer or adult creator —lives in constant fear of deplatforming and debanking over the mere hint of impropriety, is utterly mind-blowing.
Some Grok users, mostly men, began to demand to see bruising on the bodies of the women, and for blood to be added to the images. Requests to show women tied up and gagged were instantly granted.
‘Add blood, forced smile’:

‘Add blood, forced smile’: how Grok’s nudification tool went viral
The ‘put her in a bikini’ trend rapidly evolved into hundreds of thousands of requests to strip clothes from photos of women, horrifying those targeted

Can people please recommend funds/charities that directly assist or specialise in helping women in poverty / Palestine access pregnancy and post-partum care? I'm setting up a wishing well at my baby shower.

Like people really, really WANT me to co sleep. Its not "dont feel guilty if you cave and do it," its "you SHOULD be co sleeping." Where is this even coming from all of a sudden?

Its so fucking weird how many people have asked "are you going to co-sleep" right off the bat and when I say "no, not for us" they give us a full tilt lecture about how "actually its quite safe if you make sure xyz." No, I dont want to do it. I said no. Where the fuck is this COMING FROM??

Even if you put the other risks aside (and I absolutely can't do that, sorry,) I know how my husband and I sleep and I wouldn't get ANY SLEEP because id be TERRIFIED one of us would roll over onto the baby. He'll no, not for me. Bassinet can go next to the bed, thats it.

I haven't had as nearly as many people try to pressure me into not vaccinating my baby or having an unmedicated birth as I have people trying to talk me into co-sleeping. I don't care if you do it. Good for you. I have the fear of god in me & im not doing that and people try SO HARD to pressure me?
