Some days I don't feel so badly about remaining on that cutting-edge communications platform, AOL.

And a moment of silence for Earthling Books, too!

The likelihood that we were at Borders SB at the same time verges on a certainty. I virtually lived there ...

'tender and coherent,' when a recipe makes you well up a little.

If you'd invented tic-tac-toe we'd all be playing tic-tactical-tonightweoverthrowtheempire.

We're being governed by the Underpants Fascists.

1) Kidnap foreign president.

2) ???

3) Thousand-Year Reich!

maybe we're thinking about this the wrong way, maybe we should ask allies how much they'd pay to buy blue states

Well, I'm glad that we've--checks headline--fixed intimacy.

I read that as 'spiritual perspective' for a moment.

I know the concept of third spaces but barely. Are they often institutional? I think of them as more ... anarchic, I guess?

Jealous you get to read it for the first time!

Liar!

Ha, I was THIS close to giving you a 'well, actually' about lost causes ...

Losers gonna lose.

I’m a big fan of timelapses bc they show the multiple mental breakdowns I experience per drawing. I’ve heard some artists draw by knowing what they want a thing to look like and this is insane to me. I draw by going through every possible permutation of wrong for every single detail

This is a great example that the US president is a lunatic. Listen carefully 🙈
