I used to work at 7-11 and an important secret is: we let people any amount of liquid nacho cheese on anything for any reason. Put it on your fried chicken. Mix it in your slurpee. God cannot see you. The only law is Thelemic and the only limit is what your punished body can take.

This is what's at the bottom: These people, in extraordinary positions of power and influence, know absolutely nothing we don't also know. There are no secrets.

If you think Jaws is scary for not really showing the shark, you should check out spielberg's other films. they don't show the shark at all

I went to the dentist & she had a screen above chair w/Netflix, which suggested Bridgerton & I thought why not check it out and WHY DID NONE OF YOU WARN ME THAT THERE WOULD BE A TEN MINUTE LONG STEAMY & DETAILED SEX SCENE RIGHT AT THE TOP THAT I WOULD HAVE TO WATCH WHILE SHE DRILLED MY TEETH

In a move so douchey even his critics didn't expect it, twisted, hollowed-out GOP freak Ron DeSantis vetoes all arts grants previously approved by state legislators. Remember, IF YOU HATE THE ARTS, VOTE REPUBLICAN. [gift link] www.nytimes.com/2024/06/21/a...

More and more I see “pet” occurring as the past participle of “pet” - “the dog has been pet a lot today”. I would say “petted”. Always interesting when people choose to irregularize a verb. Language breathes!

Due to similar email addresses, I got accidentally put on a group email of Minnesotans where I get periodic updates about loon sightings on the lakes. Today, there is DRAMA. Dead fish everywhere. Calls to authorities, speculation about irresponsible weed killing, periodic new lists of dead fish.

Yes that would do it

when i first came out, a cis woman told me i couldn’t say i was a woman because “i hadn’t earned it yet.” when i asked what she meant by that, she said i could only claim femininity once i experienced misogyny. she was *extremely* unhappy when i said “oh. well i just did, so thanks i guess.”

Fill me up
People who were repeatedly vaccinated for COVID-19 — initially receiving shots aimed at the original variant, followed by boosters and updated vaccines targeting variants — generated antibodies capable of neutralizing a wide range of SARS-CoV-2 variants and even some distantly related coronaviruses.
Repeat COVID-19 vaccinations elicit antibodies that neutralize variants, other viruses | Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louismedicine.wustl.edu Response to updated vaccine is shaped by earlier vaccines yet generates broadly neutralizing antibodies

i want to set up a bookcase behind my desk for when i go on camera and fill it with tic-tac-toe strategy books. they probably don't exist so i'll have to print some fake jackets. they'll have titles like Tic-Tactics Vol. 7 and The Orlando System: How Abandoning The Center Square Changed Tic-Tac-Toe

Roger Corman’s funeral should come in on time, under budget and with enough footage to use in three additional funerals.
RIP, Roger Corman, a true film great, and absolutely the only one to also have about 20 different executive produced and/or directed films appear on MST3K.

What are your top 3 smells? They can't all be food, and they have to be able to work together. I think I'll go with toasted marshmallows, cedar chips and suntan lotion.
It was sunny and warm today so everybody in the neighborhood mowed their lawn and then somebody had their fire pit going so it smelled like cut grass and campfire all day. And now it’s raining so it’s like the big three of awesome smells outside.

I've been listening to Leslie Jones' audiobook, which is wonderful and hilarious. Delightful hours of her speaking in my ear, and I'm getting that Jane Austen effect where my own internal voice right now is HER. Hilarious. It's des-troy-ing.

I get what a GOAT is. But just so you know, when you call someone "a true GOAT," I will always at first think you mean, "No, no, I'm truly talking about a goat."

Can you imagine being able to really sing? Like, you could have beautiful music any time, that you make yourself and that comes out of your own face.
