Alien with anxiety. On a mission for neutrality. No, not the bad kind.

Allergic to most hyperbole.

Ever run across a Wikipedia article that’s wtf enough it should probably have a content warning?

Someone made a good point that when every decade changes, people get excited and kind of dream wildly about that next decade. We obviously didn't do that in 2020 because of Trump and eventually Covid. But were people excited about the 2010s arriving? Real question. Honestly don't remember.

Sometimes things that are expensive are worse

I would bet there are cuneiform tablets with a “posting does nothing” argument on them somewhere. Probably in a British museum, if we’re being real.

Seeing the bill afterwards is the real stress test, if you ask me

Not beating the charges; pleading yolo contendere

Meddlesome is such a great word, you know if someone calls you it that means you’re actually seeing results. Or you’re hunting ghosts with a giant dog and just unmasked the real cause behind the strange lights and noises each night at the shuttered hotel (it was old man Jenkins).

I haven’t been keeping up with the UK, but am I to understand the two draft options are either meals on wheels or being part of the imperial machinery? I mean I’d pick Uber for Seniors, but maybe not if it means driving in London.

We live in a land of car dealership Henry IIs constantly looking out for assistance with various meddlesome priests

The NYT editorial everyone’s talking about today

This bookshelf is kind of an insulting Easter egg, I’ll have you know that many JNCOs were lost in the big push to prevent y2k

Has anyone considered running a level three diagnostic on all of America’s key systems yet

I feel like most Americans would eat something described as “absolutely ass-blasted in cheese”, likely without any hesitation

I legit forgot there was some dude whose real name was “Chad Wolf” and it’s not like some weird porn guy but a lobbyist-bureaucrat who just looks like some weird porn guy

“Because there is no way for the average person to assess "how good is Joe Biden in a crisis" except the debates.” What was assuming office if not walking into an active polycrisis, lol. If the average voter needs a debate to make decisions, we are going to get exactly what we deserve.

I hate this time of year so much

Sports talk is just so absurd if you're not into it. You put some on and it's word salad like "I think he's going to get the ball in his hands", said with such absolute conviction and intent, and it's literally just some guy gushing about another guy's prowess in a particular game.

Subtitle said ‘phone has “off the hook” noise’ and the fact it quoted “off the hook” made me read it as sarcasm. Oh, a dangling pay phone? I bet it’s “off the hook”.

The politics fandom is out of hand

pretty sure I’ve said this before but if you’re writing what you think politicians/campaigns should say, word for word, you’re fundamentally the guy going “I think it would be funny if in the next Deadpool movie Deadpool does this”

Beryl's rapid intensification comes with foreboding implications—both for the rest of the Atlantic season and as a harbinger of what to expect from the tropics in a world where we see warmer seas on the regular

Yes, you should be a little freaked out about Hurricane Berylarstechnica.com "It's hard to communicate how unbelievable this is."

What if a jedi went to use their lightsaber and a corn dog came out

Find a partner that thinks about you the way Gowron thinks about honor

I should probably invest in my sanity and log in less in the closer we get to November, but it's always exciting to see people show their asses in new and inventive ways.

I'm just going to say it: Chex Mix Bold should be the default

You know what

Biden might as well "official act" his way into a new Supreme Court.

***SCOTUS rules 6–3 that Trump is immune from prosecution for "official acts" during his presidency. NOTE: This does not sink Trump's prosecution altogether, because as Justice Barrett noted during argument, Trump is being prosecuted for many *unofficial* acts www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/23p...
