If it's not a stroke, then why is it stroke-shaped?
Keep thinking about what that hospice nurse from TikTok says about how dying slightly dehydrated is preferable because bloat and fluid retention cause a death rattle and other painful co-morbidities ☺️
Something press pool could ask about
Hey, he just wants to “Have” an honest discussion about Hitler.
100% chance the last two weeks are the result of medical diagnosis/event that has led to him being pulled from public view 4 days ago. He’s been bucket listing for months anyway, hence the Nobel Prize fixation.

I only know of its use on collards but don’t let that stop you from trying it on other veg
source??
We’ve been trying thoughts and prayers for decades, buddy. Going to have to come up with a better idea than that.
So I tried it and it tasted amazing. Similar thing happened with Brussels sprouts and learning roasted they tasted hella better than boiled. Anyway, this is to say I started haunting the salad bar and ordering 3-4 veg sides in restaurants very early as a teen. Wow this edible is weird. 🤷🏻♂️
I haaated bitter greens and recall at 14 being served them at a restaurant and thinking oh shit, I’m starving and I can’t eat that. Then an adult at the table asked for malt vinegar which he put on them. Intrigued at how bitter + bitter would taste (remember I was very hungry) 2/
The edible from last night is clearly still in effect because I feel compelled to tell you a theory of mine that puberty forced me to like all vegetables. I mean, I was ok with most of them before that but the insatiable hunger of teenage boy puberty made me enjoy anything put on my plate. 1/

What a long, crazy weekend, huh? Hope everyone is leaning into self-care.
I cannot stress enough that we need look at every single action of the last few weeks through the lens of him approaching death with the folks around him trying to check things off a bucket list and him acting out in mortal fear of it
That final roundtable of praise from each cabinet member looks a lot different now. They’ve all known he was dying for at least a week.
In bed by 7:00 PM??
Fuck off and never be seen or heard from again.
First time reminder: Gillian Andersen wore a whale tail on the red carpet 24 years ago.
If a comet shot across the sky tonight it could not be more prophetic.
It’s sold out too smdh
Trump Giuliani Clinton We’re going for a rule of 3 sweep folks!
Whoa wait what - you’re going to harvest, cure or brine or press, and then store the product by yourself? Thats hell of a one man project.
5 please - it’s been a hell of a week
It looks like a stroke?
Not sure whose fault it is primarily that most people don't seem to know that the president is basically a manager whose job is to carry out the will of Congress, and not The Country's Boss
Picture of health.

deporting children en masse to certain death is Nazi af
![Anna Bowere @annabowe... • 8m Sooknanan: And if you don't know or can't find out [whether the children have been deplaned], a time estimate on when the agencies can confirm would be helpful. Because then I can ask you to file a status report. 6 75 A Anna Bowere @annabowe... • 5m Ensign: In terms of the immediate question of whether flights are leaving, they will not be leaving. Sooknanan: Okay, great. I think the main thing is a representation that the plan is to deplane and then return those kids to where they were prior 5 ₴1 61 A Anna Bower• @annabowe... • 5m And now we're on recess while Ensign calls his clients.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:j334akmveymn5phypi5kdwih/bafkreiaoyybzku7pwmkvdbhovk4me5ftgxlyzufzd56gee2yrs2krrviau@jpeg "Click to view full size")
“Good for you! That must have felt amazing!” Me, to my dog, after executing a huge, flawless poop
Hi gay!
Fair but being told to vote harder for the last decade only to be beaten on the general, then endure Mitch MxConnell fuckery and SCOTUS bribes makes it damned easy to consider midterm successes less than
What stage of capitalism is this?

Going to have to write down this flow chart to find U.S. Open tennis AppleTV -> Disney+ -> ESPN
That Trump and Trumpism are fascist doesn’t explain the sheer vandalism of unleashing mass murdering mayhem via RFK to replace medical/scientific institutions of immense value and prestige with medieval peasant superstitions. That is a criminal madness facilitated by but above and beyond fascism.

I’d like to share my (photo of) tomatoes, it’s been a brilliant year, nearly 40 varieties, but a bit of a challenge to use, share but definitely not waste…..
So many tomato sandwiches!
Big snoozing over here #caturday
Come to think of it I haven’t seen a benzodiazepine in the wild in quite a while either. A decade ago every mom I knew had them rattling around in her purse for the asking.
Laser focus on the upkeep of masonry.
I know art reflects life but really dislike this creep of modern politics and extremism into our entertainment.
Barfing and hungover just from looking at this cursed image
There is a shabby, rundown villa for sale right on the grounds of Hadrian’s in Tivoli that I want to buy. Help me I’m poor.
This has been a widely accepted fact for those in the region since it happened. The adults in my family talked openly about it when the 1974 movie came out and cringed at his celebrity.
Wait - what happened over night??
It’s unfortunate how crazily honest they were provides them with just cause for doing it
so many people are going to die because not enough people were willing to believe that RFK jr would actually try to do exactly what he has said for decades that he wanted to do
Idk about Hathaway but both Swift and Gomez are extremely/intelligently litigious. This could be good.
A just god he would smite this man in the most public and shocking way possible.
🧵/1 So imagine that you used MS Office and you went to use spell check. It charged you $1.50 per each 100 words. Yet it was wrong 70% of the time forcing you to regenerate. Each time you regenerated it broke a different word. AI Agent Coding. You are like cool I got the perfect interface made.
Yep. Whole white ass out on Main.
Excuse me while I hot rail this
I don’t understand why the future has to be so stupid
the price of being a large man walking a large dog in a neighborhood crowded with smaller dogs, toddlers, and elderly is to defer the sidewalks (all public spaces actually) ~20x on a three mile walk
Caught me slacking
HAPPENING NOW: Hello from the media room in DC district court, where Judge Jia Cobb is set to hear argument on Lisa Cook's motion for a temporary restraining order to block her removal from the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve. I'm here for @lawfaremedia.org. Follow along ⬇️🧵
oh shit
I think we have to withhold prayers until God starts doing what we want. He’s a fiend for prayers and I think he’s just used to getting them. Cut off the supply and draw him out
Post a random picture, or else everything will go bad in September.
Dear Diary, Day 4 of the husband being out of town for 2 weeks and I am already dining like a dumpster raccoon.
Someone needs to get all the Megans, Meagans, and Meghans, in a room and finally figure this mess out.
Today's mood. Patrons at the bar in Craigville, Minnesota, 1937.
Dear people who are saying that the CDC directors who quit yesterday should have “stayed and fought”, With all due respect, you do not grasp the magnitude of the problem of RFK Jr. He is asking them to do unethical and immoral things that will actively harm the people of the United States. 1/3
They abhor an unsuccessful investment more than the public danger inherent in AI
One thing that really hits you when you're directly affected by gun violence in schools is that there's nowhere to hide. Public, private, religious, whatever - unless you're going to homeschool your kids, we live in a world where they're at risk of something like this happening.
Marcus Aurelius hot and early with the emotional dysregulation
I remember when the Columbine massacre happened and very serious media and political figures deliberately hid the fact that the shooters were neo-Nazis and claimed that they did it because they were bullied (they weren’t) and that they wore black clothes. Just thought I’d mention that
The Nazi bar over at Substack pays well for this kind of promotion
Some of these top CDC officials being pushed out had bullet holes in their office windows
Congratulations! Of course you feel like a bundle of contradictions. 🫂
I wake with hope and retire with despair.
Fun fact: Herschel named Uranus “Georgium Sidus” or “George’s Planet” in honor of King George III. It was later renamed to conform with the other deity names.

That was delicious despite forgetting to add red onion. No such mistakes will be made at dinner.
Holy fuck that’s the actual Image! In my lifetime we have gone from: “other stars probably have planets” to “We are directly imaging baby planets in young stellar systems.” We could do more of this instead of the fascism and genocide.
A nation that can’t stop the slaughter of children by guns is a nation that should be razed to the ground
What movie do you consider "perfect"? 🎬

We are not going to change anyone’s mind about supporting MAGA and I fear they will kill us before they relinquish an ounce of power. A lot of difficult and personally dangerous decisions lie ahead for every American.
Someone on here said bipartisanship was actually collusion at this point and I can’t stop thinking about how perfectly that describes the moment we are in
What now?
At least the wealthy people in entertainment are still able to do the things they want, right?
I can see that. It loomed so large over every sexual encounter I had that it was like having to check in with death before pulling my pants down.
grand larceny inside job sword theft is now my official worst-roommate story. worse than the chick who showed up with a sob story and a puppy and then returned the puppy to the pound literally a week after she moved in
Middle distance staring too much but have therapy tomorrow
