Take your eternal spirit out for a drive around town with the windows down. Introduce it to your friends. Buy a round of drinks for once.

Every anti-vaxxer I encounter seems to love weird unregulated supplements. They hate Big Pharma but they love Little Pharma, Big Pharma’s younger sibling who grew up without any adult supervision.

The world’s gone to hell. We are now spreading soft cheese on the hard cheese, and eating like savages.

Protect your heart from breaking by padding it with soft cheese.

Obviously you will all be called upon to avenge me after my death, but now I'm thinking, why wait? Get out there and prevenge.

I didn't realize they let men play hockey now, too! Three cheers for inclusivity!

Always "the hand looks worse today; they're covering it with more makeup" and never "the carcass is on the side of the road." When, Lord?

If you don't see me visiting you in your dreams, you might examine your life choices, starting with the snacks you have on offer.

Narrow your gaze to what's in front of you, not the whole world and all its grief. Focus on one small thing at a time that you actually can influence.

Any leftover bits of Wednesday can be scraped right on top of Thursday and warmed up. I've done it myself a thousand times.

Holding your mind focused when you need to work, keeping yourself and your dear ones fed and afloat and hopeful: this is resistance, too.

Man, I miss early Twitter.

We need to talk about the rise of "smol bean fascism" where you have all the guns and the immunity but the really scary people are the ones with whistles and phone cameras and they're giving you generational trauma and ptsd by filming you killing people for no reason

Sounds like some bullshit happening out there. No, thank you. I retreat.

I've been secretly hoarding sweet nothings all year and tonight I will whip them at you one by one, dodgeball style.

Merry Christmas *and* a Happy New Year? In this economy?!

People expect miracles from medicine, but refuse the miracle that would let them avoid needing emergency care in the first place

Forgive us, your grace. We were too tired and lazy to make homemade. Grocery store pie will have to do.

I'm going to have a nice peaceful day with no bad news if it kills us all.

Get some rest tonight, everybody. I'll expect to see your offerings tomorrow. The devil hasn't yet made the villain who can spoil Secular Pie Thursday.

I renew my request that you all stop showing me the worst people in the world morning, noon, and night.

I am proud of MIT, where our branch of AAUP has voted unanimously to endorse this statement urging MIT leadership and the MIT Corporation to reject the Compact wholesale

For whatever reason, Kimmel at least seems to understand that politics is a real thing that affects people. Too many elites are still stuck with the idea that it's some kind of game, with a preferred team but no real consequences. Which leaves them uneqipped to fight.

Between you and me, I'm starting to wonder whether it was in everyone's best interests to put the craziest assholes we could find in charge.
