Cours vite, camarade, le vieux monde est derrière toi!
I'm begging the creators of film and TV to understand that no woman wears a bra to bed. It's insane.

Abbott’s seizure of border land took less than 48 hours to claim lives.

Henry Cuellar says that Border Patrol observed a woman and two children in distress in the middle of the Rio Grande. Texas troops reportedly barred them from taking action so the family was swept away by the river and drowned.

"When you drive a massive SUV you’re saying 3 things: I don’t care about the environment. I don’t care that I’m more likely to kill pedestrians in my car. I don’t care that there isn’t room for my car & others to co-habit smoothly on London’s streets."
A vulgar climate catastrophe — we should ban SUVs in London or tax them to the max

I want to give this slice of credit to my mother - she does not pretend to enjoy cooking for Christmas. She's clearly miserable! She tells anyone who asks!

Every year I'm annoyed that my father waits till 12/23 then asks me what my mom wants, then gets her jewelry that she returns. This year I'm monetizing his incompetence by buying the gift she asked for and offering it to him on 12/23 at a 100% markup.

This editorial is impossibly stupid
According to the WaPo Ed board, young men are consuming media about hating women (and others), but straight marriage is so important that young women should ignore that and marry them anyway.

There's real pressure to make the holidays magical and frankly I'm not here for it.

Someone once described the Facebook reactions, in order, as “the stages of learning about Morrissey” and that’s really stuck with me

Sneaking this one in on the holiday: it's confusing we have two different significant culture figures named Phoebe Bridgers and Phoebe Waller-Bridge and I'm tired of pretending it isn't

Friendly reminder that you could do nothing for Thanksgiving - you could order food, not see your family, it's fine.

Joe Biden has been in national politics since the 1970s. He served on the committee that put Clarence Thomas on the bench.

Yes, I also hold him responsible for the overturning of Roe.

“'E-bikes are like a miracle drug,' Zipper told me. 'They provide so much upside, not just for the riders, but for the people who are living around them too.'”

A weird thing about me now is that I'm unable to remember the plot of anything I watch. I was like shocked to watch the Loki recap despite watching it in 2021.

But don't worry, I remember all the details of Johnny Tremain.
