In Hallmark, as in the real world, the poison ingredient is phone. Time to model good mother-daughter behavior over shooters and forget about Roko's 1 Billion Americans. Join me and @davidjroth.bsky.social for a movie written a friendly mainstay of comedy Twitter you've been reading all these years.

It's Christmastown @itschristmastown.bsky.social · 22d

Tech CEO and kitchen oaf Rachael Leigh Cook gets Hallmark-wasted, Leans Out, and, with the help of Bobby Bacala's calzone triptych, learns that McKinseying her little sister's love life only puts her in the path of wine clowns.

Billy Crystal and HBO should release a director's cut of 61* that gets rid of that scene where a fan chucks a chair at Maris and instead chucks a chair, Vaughn Meader, an SM-65D Atlas missile and Nikita Khrushchev.

A lot of suburban moms are swing voters, and this is fucking with them in a way that I don't think most Hot Take Political People even understand.

It's not just the expense, it's the way you shop for your cheap staple meal one day and, surprise! Tonight's dinner costs double what it did last week

Rome is working closely with the European Commission to press the United States to reconsider an additional anti-dumping tariff on pasta imports which would effectively double their price, the Italian foreign ministry said.

Rome calls on US to reconsider extra tariff on pasta imports

With almost $800 million in exports, the U.S. is one of Italy's top three export markets for pasta, a staple of the country's culinary heritage and a substantial export commodity.

No reputable medical or psychological association supports conversion therapy. Being LGBTQ+ is not an illness, and we don’t need to be cured.

We have been working to ban conversion therapy in Nebraska since 2019. With my LB 367, we could be next to ban this inhumane practice.

Alejandra Caraballo @esqueer.net · 1d

The Supreme Court is poised to overturn 32 state bans on conversion therapy and explicitly legalize the abusive and torturous process.

They don't care how many LGBTQ people this traumatizes and kills.

it's not even hustle culture bullshit, it's that cena isn't such an egomaniac that he insists the characters he plays in movies and tv shows be sacrificed to the character of "john cena pro wrestler." the hustling PR stuff's all downstream of his having terminal A-list brain with at best a B+ career

Dunno man, seems a little misleading to write an article about Trump describing activity in Portland and Chicago as “insurrection” with a 33 year old photo of a burning donut shop taken in the 1992 LA Riots (sans caption explaining that) as the header on all your posts about it.

The picture from
The article with a picture of an armed men standing in front of a burning donut shop. You must click through to read the caption “
Two National guardsmen stand guard outside a burning donut shop in Los Angeles on April 30, 1992.
The National Guard was called in to aid police during the second day of rioting in the city.”

Keep thinking about Jesse Watters interviewing his producer as Shredder, Zorro, Jigsaw, the Dread Pirate Roberts, Hannibal Lecter, Rey Mysterio and the rabbit from Donnie Darko, them getting their own Fox panel show, Lecter coming down hard on bombing fishing boats as "tacky," being hugely outvoted.

Decoding Fox News @decodingfoxnews.bsky.social · 2d

Last week Jesse Watters spoke to man named Eric who claimed he was formerly a member of antifa. Two years ago Watters interviewed Ramon "Mundo" Mendoza, a former Mexican Mafia member. Some folks thought the men looked similar. This is a side by side comparison. 🤷‍♀️
