It's so hot right now that the neighbour is letting his pot harvest outside to soak it in as a little treat

my sriracha that i ordered on monday has been delayed until next thursday, so i bought some sriracha that will arrive tomorrow to hold me over until my sriracha arrives

reskeet with a tweet you still think about

The fireworks ban once again proving to be just the deterrent people needed.

Probably not something we need to cancel July 4th celebrations over, comments the mayor

I'm glad someone other than me is brave enough to say it

The 'Lost' finale is good: defector.com/the-lost-fin...

The 'Lost' Finale Is Good | Defectordefector.com Lost celebrates its 20th anniversary this year, and it’s back on Netflix now. As a result, there’s already a whole lot of pontificating and evaluating and reevaluating and episode-ranking from the wid...

My hot probably wrong take is that democratic infighting is good actually, the lack of primaries means democratic issues and leaders aren't featured in the news and the public isn't thinking about them, a contentious convention might actually activate democratic voters instead of turning them away

Sticking with Biden or running Harris would be *far* less risky than dedicating two of the next four months to Democrat infighting, followed by an unprecedented delegate voting process and dubious chances of even getting on the ballot. Knowing this shit is supposed to be these people's job

A couple months ago while waiting for a bus, I saw some porch pirates steal a package and then laugh while holding up the baby shoes inside before driving away. Thought it would be a nice prequel to the Hemmingway story, heading into the pawn shop with brand new shoes.

when i say i'm "rockin' out," i mean in the sisyphean sense.

Is The Bear a comedy? I don't know, but this made me laugh out loud.

roberts essentially ignores the purpose of separation of powers, which was not to create entirely separate spheres of action but to prevent the emergence of unchecked authority. instead, he says, separation of powers *demands* unchecked authority.

Finally got a ruling on Frost v Nixon, depressing stuff

Adding to my will that my coffin gets carried away to the "it's the season finale of lost and the heroes are marching down the coast" song.

John Cena showing up on the bear is a bit like when Matt Damon showed up as kavanaugh on SNL, simply one cameo too far ruining everything else in retrospect. Nothing against Cena, I don't blame that final needle when my back breaks.

Gene Parmesan was such a great character because that too was how I reacted whenever Martin Mull showed up

In a stunning rebuke against Aught implies Can, western states are now free to make existence illegal.

In its biggest decision on homelessness in decades, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that cities can ban people from sleeping and camping in public places.

U.S. Supreme Court says cities can punish people for sleeping in public placesnpr.org The decision is a win for Western cities that wanted more powers to manage record homelessness. But advocates for the unhoused say the decision will do nothing to solve the larger problem

What if we 'it's so fucking over' so hard we never 'were so fucking back' again?

It doesn't feel great when it feels like the only defense we have against an autocratic take over is the dancing plastic bag footage from American Beauty

There is only good option for the closing statements for Biden to pull up here

I think it would be very funny if Biden answered the age question by going back to actually talk about child care costs.

I would simply storm the stage with a glass of water and some adderal

I'm not feeling great about this.

I think we can rule out the “Biden took uppers” angle

Would stream the debates on Max, but don't want it to get stuck in my continue watching if I forget to fast forward through the inside the episode content after the credits.

It's truly shameful that now at 41 I'm being asked to sacrifice an hour of Elden Ring time to check in if we aren't fumbling into autocracy, it's too much to ask from me

The Bear is just going to get more contemplative every season until they are doing full episodes that are just closeups on an apple or something
