Defending my home by loudly ordering Alexa to buy twenty copies of The Art of the Deal so that the stormtroopers outside my front door can hear me
Mr. Honcho almost undersells it here. Not just another excellent Cattet-Forzani joint, it’s also a deconstruction of the genre’s most poisonous aspects. And yes, it’s filled with wild ideas. Moments that would be the sole highlight of another movie just pour out of the screen here. Insanely good

Funniest thing about Trump 'winning' the inaugural FIFA Peace Prize is that if he's still alive in four years they'll be obliged to give it to him again, every four years in perpetuity, and if he's not alive, they'll give it to nobody and never speak of it again

He only wants these things because he heard there was a piss prize and it reminded him of his favorite hotel room in Moscow

I hope someone draws this wonderful story about Tom Stoppard's Arcadia and the power of the arts to help us see things differently, to the attention of our Education Secretary. Do read it, it will lift your spirits.

So why fire again? Also the fog of war isn't literally "fog", you dipshit
Q: So you didn't see any survivors after that first strike?
HEGSETH: I did not personally see survivors. The thing was on fire. This is called the fog of war. This is what you in the press don't understand. You sit in your air conditioned offices and plant fake stories in the Washington Post

I get minutes from meetings at a church in Toronto, links to an NHS account for my Mancunian doppleganger, and some bank in New Zealand offering someone great deals on a loan. Also a yoga studio
I don’t have a particularly common name but there are multiple people around the world who accidentally use my email when signing up for accounts. There’s a guy in Missouri who has been my constant companion for going on twenty years. He’s recently divorced and joining some sort of “karate church”

My therapist just today chastised me for not printing off and keeping the compliments I get about my work, my reason being that I’d be mortified if anyone saw that I had done that. She said that the things that make life better are as important for character building as adversity and I was REELING
Every encouraging message I have ever received has felt like a buoy when I wanted to quit or wondered if anyone would notice if I stopped writing and reporting to the standards and levels of my role models. And I send my own messages to other writers and reporters too.

What if, for example, you were a person who spent most of their time watching TV, drinking Diet Coke, and eating McDonalds and had a habit of staying up well into the early morning posting on social media? What kind of healthcare would that person deserve?
Markwayne Mullin on healthcare: "What the president would like to do is say, hey, if you take care of yourself -- you don't smoke, you don't dip, you're not drinking, you're not overweight, you're working out -- then you should pay less than the guy that obviously is not taking care of himself."
