Scene from the Deep Space 9 holiday spectacular. Weyoun is alien pictured in mid-thought. He has large and extra long ribbed ears that stretch further down the face than earth humans, aligning more with the jaw line, and have horizontal loafy ridges up and down. He's also quite pale with v dark hair. Closed caption reads, "Oh, ho, ho, ho."

It's the weekend, baby
Shaxs from Star Trek Lower Decks is pictured. He's a cartoon, because Lower Decks, besides being the best effing show ever, is a cartoon. Shaxs is a big burly man wearing his gold Star fleet uniform and also an apron over the front like he's doing some sort of art project or baking a nice sourdough. In each hand he's holding a broken bottle like that thing you do where you take a bottle and break off the bottom and then use it as a weapon. His eyeballs are bulging large, his brow is furrowed, and he looks absolutely unhinged with rage and anger. Closed caption reads, "Fighting fascism is a full time job!"

We need to build some real social stigma around being afraid of cities. You don't have to like them or live there, but a politics built this strongly around watching TV and going "ewww" is embarrassing, and people should be embarrassed by it. It's like "fear of werewolves" being your top issue.

you can't tell at first because this is written in the exonerative tense, but she was shot *by another police officer*
That person fled into a nearby apartment, Snelling said, and when officers followed inside, they were confronted by a second person armed with a rifle who pointed that weapon at police. Snelling said at some point, one officer discharged their weapon. During that encounter, police said, Rivera was shot in the chest. She was rushed to a local hospital where she died of her injuries. "This is the risk our officers take every single day," Snelling said. The initial suspect and the person who allegedly pointed the rifle at police fled on foot but were later arrested, Snelling said. A second officer sustained an injury to their wrist and was hospitalized in fair condition.

For the good of the country and indeed the world, Elon Musk and Donald Trump must hash out their differences and make peace, and also that conversation must happen while both of them pilot this two-person submersible I made down to the wreck of the Titanic.

Everyone has one Mitch Hedberg joke stashed in their brain like a squirrel to sustain them whenever they need to feel joy for 30 seconds and mine is “they say the recipe for Sprite is Lemon and Lime but I tried to make it at home, there’s more to it than that”

Every time I read The Great Gatsby, the final paragraph brings me to tears. Breathtakingly powerful writing:
"I'm alive!" said Gatsby, roaring past on a speedboat. He'd faked his own death and gotten away with everything. That's why they called him the Great Gatsby. "Out of the way, current!" he yelled at the water. "This speedboat is bearing me ceaselessly into the future!"
