Excited for the semester to start and for my new students to find my social media accounts
It looks like you're trying to rawdog it
Panera has the energetic signature of a location where people meet to have difficult conversations in a public place.
Perhaps they're not numb to it, but that those who remain on X like and agree with him.
If Bluesky is bad because we don't venerate colossal douchebags like Cuban, then I'm fine with it being bad.
Ten years ago, when no one outside of Cleveland's city limits wore LeBron James jerseys
When university administrators announce that they are excited about something, you know it's going to be super bad
Bluesky is dying, I know this because I've been here for 30 seconds, do not have millions of followers, and not enough of you are flattering me. Here's what you must do, immediately: (1/744689643226853)
This seems important:
It was in New Hampshire? He’s running.
Were you even a stock room, bro?
film flubs: in the movie spartacus (1960), several different characters identify themselves as spartacus. this scene was mistakenly left in the final cut of the film
If you say ‘harbour,’ I will cut you
Michael Jay, do not make me come over there and dump your tea into the harbor
It’s going to rock when we learn that the damsel in distress he was assisting was Olivia Nuzzi
DO YOU HAVE A MORE RECENT PHOTOGRAPH OF ME THAT I CAN USE AS PROOF OF LIFE
Actually, Frankenstein is a doctor success at the Venice film festival
He tells lies because he thinks they are useful, and because he knows that there are no consequences. He thinks that the most powerful newspaper will not call him a liar, so why not. And you know what? He’s right.
I guess this is a step in the right direction? But still: “promoting false claims.” Lies. They’re lies! He tells lies. You don’t think he knows that they are lies?
I have just signed an executive order demanding Shane Black produce no fewer than three (3) sequels to The Nice Guys
Just saw someone refer to Cheryl Hines as The Marvelous Mrs. Measles and 💀💀💀💀💀💀
Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair! Thank you for your attention to this matter!
So he’s not dead? Is he at least in pain? Soiling himself?
That feeling when you suspect someone is dead but don't have any evidence yet
In some ways Ham-Face is the perfect Trump voter: all his decisions blow up in his face but the explanation is always, you don't understand, the radical leftist Joe Biden made us mad.

Weekend at Bernie's is literally set in the Hamptons on Labor Day weekend.
trump booked himself a remote cabin with no devices and is going to have a proper go at middlemarch
the funniest possible day for it to happen is 9/11
I’m not joking
It will be the moment he finally becomes President
Coco Gauff met Simone Biles and they're an optical illusion
I hope the Pacific is as blue as it has been in my dreams. I hope.
This site tonight is like that goddamned New York Times election night needle
It’s not a mistake. It was by design. Trump likes him and thinks he’s doing a good job! It’s *your* job to turn RFK into a political liability. You think shameposting Trump is going to do that? How are you so bad at this? STILL?
We are all going to die. Even Ernst’s career.
The highlighted quote in the second image is quite something. “Mom says you have to let me play with you.”
can we prosecute others for attempting to pervert the course of justice i have some suggestions darth
They’re all monsters, but what the fuck does this even mean? There is no one person “in charge of overseeing U. S. elections.” Also, Heather Honey is an A+ porn name.
First Teixeira being a colossal douchebag warring against woke, now this, today has been a lot
More afraid of these houses than the subway
This photo is amazing. www.latimes.com/california/s...
These dudes are rancid. My mental health improved SO MUCH when I finally realized this and stopped listening to them. I'm only sorry it took so long.
Tough but fair.
James Dolan could have redeemed himself for decades of bullshit.
They should have hired her. She’s amazing and would crush it. www.espn.com/womens-colle...
There was no better ally for calling bullshit than Mara.
(I can’t see who you’re quoting! Somebody has been blocked - likely me.) Also, TCOTAM is in fact total horseshit.
Benjamin, I *yelped* in the A train. It’s how I figured out the twist far in advance. Sad sad sad.
I don’t know if you have read (or seen) it, so don’t want to spoil it, despite it being what, 15 years old or something. Anyway: you probably know the setup: hipster couple leaves Brooklyn for the Midwest, retreating to her hometown of: New Carthage, Missouri. It has to be an homage, right?
(Have we, in this context, discussed ‘Gone Girl’?)
Trying to figure out how to monetize my New Carthage radar.
It is hard to maintain faith.

"The experts thought we'd be good and we were actually dogshit so really, who is the idiot now" is an incredible post from an owner lmao
It also reads like MAGA Carrie Bradshaw
Oh no who will leave next?!? Charlie Kirk? Tommy Tuberville?
Yes. Also, imagine thinking “Subscriber-Only Newsletter: Ross Douthat” is a selling point.
I’m so sorry, but the Single White Female But With Swords pitch is gold.
Pretending not to hear the whole room chanting “shame” at her is the most Susan Collins things ever
This is a joke, right? You’re joking? Good one.
Our ideas are catastrophic, but at least they are behind a paywall!
Maybe the *real* customer service is the friendos we made along the way.

Putting the rage in marraige
Rather than asking for a $10 copay, Walgreens will be giving me my prescription and $150.
Not the point, and obviously not important, but nothing about that description is like EPCOT
If Medvedev comes back and wins, that photographer becomes tennis’s Steve Bartman.
Great film, still hits like crazy. Womanhood amirite!!
Medvedev is a Bond villain.
Is Greg Allensworth a magnet for this shit, or just unspeakably bad at his job?
Also, you seem not to understand the First Amendment, which says that I, personally, am exempt from criticism, so SOMEONE is in big trouble and it’s not me

I was kind of hoping he’d go all in with a “possible - nay, probable.” A boy can dream.
except for their 94 losses, the Rockies are 37-0
You have to listen to 10,000 hours of Rogan…and use many ellipses…before you can understand his methods…and make a joke
“even probable”
