Gods give me strength, my shelter has A CAT NAMED HIPPO.

Doomscroll break, imagine Matt Berry saying these Oscar nominations

Poweramp pulled up the tick...tick...BOOM! soundtrack today, the eve of my 49th birthday. I am being very cool and normal about this (she lied unconvinvingly)

Fittingly enough, every single word of this fierce piece of writing is crucial. But these particular sections of words are my favorites.

""I'm afraid I could be arrested if I travel to that state for your wedding and need to use the restroom at the venue ..."

Long-time buddies Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols were out for a pleasant van drive in Oklahoma when, all of a sudden, their lives would change.

Oh believe me, I think about that world every day...

in case you've never seen it, this is Roger Ebert on The Mummy

Great, that's just great.
Anyone know how to get two teenage boys out of the country? Asking for a friend.

I can think of a few people who still care about ballet and opera...

Yet another reason as to why they should've switched focus to a new group of toys in the same universe after Toy Story 3

Just got the weirdest postcard. What do you think it means??

The rapture is not in the Bible.

The rapture is not present in Christianity before the 19th century.

The rapture makes for dangerous theology and foreign policy.

The rapture needs to become a resoundingly opposed sentiment.

31 years ago today, Mr. Burns’ film was booed by everyone at the Springfield Film Festival, except Hans Moleman, who was saying “Boo-urns.”

#TheSimpsons episode “A Star is Burns” first aired March 5, 1995.

Take this as your sign that YOU too can fight back against ICE. Everyone has a part to play when it comes to resistance!

"why did you become a writer" because no one gave a shit about my special interests growing up. now i make them everyone else's problem. next question

"you need to learn how to use gAI or you'll get left behind!"

counterpoint!

the absolute fastest way to render yourself unemployable is to build your skillset around a tool that does your thinking for you, that everyone has access to, and that one company can change or take away at any time

Last year, the Lilo & Stitch remake and the Zootopia sequel both grossed over a billion dollars, while Elio, literally the only original movie released under the Disney banner last year, flopped.

GO SEE HOPPERS, people! If Hoppers flops too, Disney might never make another original movie again.

Dolly Parton is what every billionaire should be: not a billionaire because she gives too much money away.

To understand what's happening in Iran today, you have to know about the history of Western intervention in the country.

In the early 1900s, the British secured oil rights in the country until 1993, where they only agreed to pay Iran 16% of the total profits.

This was seen as an unfair deal. 🧵

I was born in an Iranian prison. My parents were held in their jails. My uncles lie in their mass graves. Nothing you can tell me about the crimes of the Iranian regime that I haven't lived in blood and bone. That doesn't mean I want my people bombed, maimed, killed, their homes in ruins. If your vision of liberation comes only through the destruction of innocent lives, then it's not freedom you're after. Sahar Delijani, Iranian author

I am pro Iranian people. I stand with them against their own government’s repression AND against the imperial violence in the form of bombs dropped from the sky from Israel & the US who have already killed hundreds.

I support neither imperialism or dictatorship.

Got a “do better, Bill” reply to this for using the word dumb. Since I already had this person muted, they graduated to blocked. Congratulations, here’s your diploma, you are now free from my offensive adjectives.

Couldn't have said it better myself. I literally read this in my attempt at a Paul Winchell impression.

Dr. Seuss would be so proud.

The world is a really scary place at the moment. Whatever it is that brings you some peace of mind or helps give you some respite, from it whether it's video games, anime, films, art, creating something - Do it unapologetically. Don't let anybody take your joy!

The King is mad

It is actually offensive to our object permanence to have this administration say they are going to war to defend protesters and human dignity
