Welp. Left another message for Kim telling him what a disappointment he is. And that if you vote for fascists, I'm left with the belief that you're one too.

Can't even say I'm shocked. Tad obvious tho. Not that they care about all that anymore.
Pantone’s 2026 color of the year is technically not a color at all — meet Cloud Dancer, the first-ever white shade to receive the designation from the world’s color authority.
Pantone makes a surprising choice for its 2026 color of the year

Yesterday actually, my trainer told me I'm one of her success stories. This after I said I felt like I wasnt doing my best.
What is the best compliment you ever received? Putting aside whether or not you believed it.

We wanted to understand how women are ruining the workplace. So we talked to three unemployed Joe Rogan fans at a White Castle in Toms River.

3 of my besties are (NJ and Bronx women) Scorpios. I am loved and protected.
We are loyal and loving. Ask anyone a Scorpio adores. Don't ask anyone we hate though, they're biased

My kids godmother called Aunt. My husband ex-sister in law is his Titi forever. My best friends are Aunties. And Prima covers more people than I can possibly count who aren't cousins.
Wait, are people really upset that Mamdani spoke about his “aunt,” and it was actually his father’s cousin and not his father’s sibling?
Because that is an extremely normal thing a lot of cultures do. Including a lot of large Jewish families!

In a bit of a tense moment, one of the La Mega co-hosts presses Mamdani on why he "lied" about his "aunt" having been scared to ride the subway after 9/11 while wearing a hijab.
Mamdani says it was "not a lie" because he refers to his father's cousin as his "aunt."

Donated this morning, received email that they could buy 60 dozen eggs with what I gave. Those of us who can, should.
I just donated to my local food bank. If you can, you should too. People are already suffering but next month, in particular, is going to be so difficult.

As a Union County driver...yes. It's bad bad here.
You know how when shelters get dogs that have been abused, the dogs always have food aggression and if you touch their food bowl while they’re eating, they might your hand off?
That’s how NJ drivers are about the lane they’re driving in.
Only it’s worse. . .

The problem with the "break up the US and let red states do their own thing" take I keep seeing is that a plurality of Black Americans live in red states. Trans people live in red states. Indigenous people live in red states. Disabled people live in red states.
