I went on 2 or 3 dates with a manic pixie Cheez-its girl. She had a song about them on her ukulele and everything. This was in the early days of Friendster when you could just DM people out of the blue and say "Hey, you're interesting"

The White House Antifa Roundtable is one of the best displays I’ve seen of this-is-how-bad-it’s-gotten — just a sewer of open fascism, dementia, morons and freaks, and incoherent rage.
