Every time I see these helmets on the Bills, I wanna grab a quarter and scratch the logo off to see if I won.

Yep. When we talk about it or don't talk about it, it proves your point. How dare we either talk about or not talk about it?

I feel like the word "renowned" should have an asterisk next to it.

You know you're fucking up a text when your phone is like "Hey man, do you wanna just say it to us in your native language and we'll translate into English for you?"

I won't call you a hair-splitter, I'll say you're making a distinction without a difference.

I feel like they'll mostly have forgotten him by this time next week.

You don't have to condone murder to celebrate one. If I celebrated him dying from cancer, nobody would accuse me of endorsing cancer.

Alright, I'm not gonna endorse the conspiracy theories that he's secretly dead, but I'm willing to bet he's at least using the autopen.

Republicans are awfully proud of the way they moved Cracker Barrel's stock price from $62 to $55 by throwing a hissy fit. But, like, the younger, more progressive generation that they're so scared of managed to move it from $175 to $62 just by not wanting to eat there.

We've reached this weird place where the most patriotic thing an American could really do at this point is burn an American flag.

1. Indiscriminately deport non-white people as publicly as possible.

2. Take over cities with large Democratic majorities.

3. Place military/ICE presence at or near polling stations.

4. End mail-in voting.

Social media teaches us a lot about ourselves. Like, for example, without social media, I'd never even have suspected that my favorite thing in the world to watch is people mowing lawns in fast motion.

Fun fact: Apparently the TSA is allowed to sexually violate people over computer glitches, and they don't even have to apologize.

It's weird that the news is framing it as "Dow Jones hits record high" rather than "Dow Jones finally catches up to where it already was when Trump started with all his tariff bullshit."

Trump is doing everything he can to spark a huge protest to galvanize (read: terrify) his base.

That's not to say people shouldn't protest -- or even riot at this point -- but we also need to recognize his motives.
