Gift link for WaPo article on plans to expand IRS Direct File: wapo.st/4buSaad

IRS Direct File is here to stay. All 50 states are invited.wapo.st The Biden administration announced plans to renew the experimental free tax filing service that it tested this year, and to make it available in more than 12 states.

The reflexive immediacy with which Gamers spring to Activision's defense is indicative of a consumer base that values nothing aside from the continued production of content for contentment. An attack upon the product is unconscionable, for it risks impeding the fantasy provided.

doctor: yup, looks like you're autistic me: oh damn, is it curable? doctor: for a lot of people the cure is just to suck it up, but otherwise no, it's terminal me: fuck, that's awful. what are the symptoms? doctor: you're pretty much just like, not good at hanging out. the vibes are iffy

I hate to be the one to break it to tumblrites, but a divorce is 100% a failed marriage. what did this person think those vows were about

As of this posting, audience reviews can be scrolled through on the film's page, but not critic review quotations. This sucks! I do not care to subject myself to the bleatings of the unwashed masses!

Wow, the new redesign for Rotten Tomatoes is AWFUL. When you go to a page for a particular film, you can only see two reviews from critics at a time. More importantly, audience reviews are higher on the page than critic reviews. The site's primary utility is effectively gone.

yeah i saw that movie too… extremely distressed that the semi entertaining two hour commercial for the mattel corporation with a couple “cant decide which wave” feminist monologues shoehorned in did not get its due reward from the academy

it's a tit bit nipply out there

I’ve heard the phrase “colder than a witch’s tit” but this is ridiculous

dumping all the bits and scraps of various teas into the filter and cold brewing a pitcher of "garbage green"

this is so incredibly tense. our man has not made a move in 45 minutes

Been thinking about it and I've started to ask myself what the point of identifying myself as a Jew is, and I don't know how to answer.

fundamentally I think my problem is that this is the only way I ever appreciate "art" because I am completely incapable of "vibing"

Sucks that people have been made to feel like art is a puzzle they aren't smart enough to appreciate. When you go to a gallery the only questions that really matter are what does it make you think of and how does it make you feel

what if it was JoJo's Excellent Adventure and then Bill and Ted's Bizarre Adventure
