I hope my neighbors can’t hear me say stuff like “who wants to stop being a fuckshit tom cat and come be a little bedtime boy”

Absolutely zero fixed points of decency. The moral rigor of a blobfish.

Beau Brummel spinning in his grave so fast you could use him as a centrifuge. Just galactically offensive to the eyes.

I was shocked when I saw that Trump has pumped his own gas, but not since the Cretaceous period. And even then, it was just a pure abstraction. The numbers are as real to him as the concept of Norway is to my dog.

Coca-Cola salesman on the paternal side, secretary of state on the distaff side.

Further back than that, and it's pretty much peat-bog farmers eating mud for breakfast since the Pleistocene.

I pitched a fit about finding a squirrel in my fireplace yesterday, so yeah, my ancestors are real proud.

Famous for three months. An embryo. A zygote. That blastocyst had a dream, and look at him now.

Usually new stars are made, but that boy made HIMSELF.

Same category as "mark my words", like buddy I do not need a linguistic concierge here. I can manage the flow of your rhetorical output just fine without needing traffic directions.

Oh god yes. I don’t understand why the fruit + veg is so much more intensely flavourful in the UK. My working theory is that there's less time between field->lorry->shop->home, so things are fresher, but it's more than that. UK green beans are sweet+tender, not starchy+tough! Raspberries are bright!

The opening third of Atonement is a beautiful re-watch, it ticks like a clock, it thrums with erotic urgency. The last two thirds? No idea, haven’t seen them since 2007, absolutely never will, you couldn't pay me, I'd rather put hot coals down my undies.

In elementary school we weren't allowed to wear hats and in 3rd grade this boy, Joey, came in with a hat on and we were all like
"Joey ur gonna get in trouble!" And the teacher told him to take it off but he said he got a really bad hair cut so the teacher and him went out in the hall and then they came back in and she said "Joey is allowed to wear a hat today"

laughing so hard I might cry at this random instagram comment

Woud this have been Anna Nolan? I liked her. Normal sort of person. Probably doesn't secretly eat babies or put quartz eggs up her foof.

Listen politely to someone calling you an addled buffoon with infantile predilections, and then smile beatifically as you dive, Scrooge McDuck-style, into your lake of money. Be free.

Surely the single redeeming thing about being super-rich is being able to indulge in a wildly niche hobby and boring people endlessly with it. Track down every known Stradivarius viola! Get weirdly into hot air ballooning! Become a debonair art thief specializing in Dutch old masters! Anything!

Nobody's snapping books like crab legs! Sometimes book spines just develop cracks as you read them! This is normal! I am not a sicko!!!!

(I mean. I absolutely am, but not about books.)

If Heated Rivalry was an A24 psychological thriller. // my fiance made this as a way to cope with how many times we’ve watched this season #heatedrivalry #trailer #hudsonwilliams #connorstorrie #e... TikTok video by ꒰ঌ syd ໒꒱

This Heated Rivalry serial killer edit is a goddamn masterpiece. Hollander's flat affect turned into dead-eyed malevolence is diabolical work.

Oh, Devil in the Grove is such a good suggestion. An incredible story, written with care, and taut as a drumhead. And the audiobook version is superbly produced and narrated. Hugely recommended.

Lord, your point about profs having been atypical students is so shrewd. I'd never put that thought together before. It explains so much.

As a dual US-Canadian citizen who protests every week on my liberal New England college town green, I'd say the day after he invades Greenland, I'm toast. I'm putting a go-bag together; I can make it to Québec in 2 hrs if my foot's heavy on the pedal.

I am so angry. I'm so angry for all of us.

A product of the smallest, meanest, coldest mind. I sincerely loved the HP books, and the sudden realisation that there was something twisted in her was nauseating. I felt like a mark.

The Casual Vacancy as a bellwether of Rowling's desiccated soul is wildly under-recognised and under-discussed. It's the sourest thing I've ever read. Crusted with contempt. Pathologically diseased. A seething, swollen nidus of misanthropy.

I hope she gets what she sincerely deserves one day.

I have never, ever in my life heard anything more accurate, and I thank you sincerely for the gift.

Coconut Fish and Tomato Bake Recipe A coconut-milk dressing infused with garlic, ginger, turmeric and lime coats fish fillets in this sheet-pan dinner Accompanying the fish are bright bursts of tomatoes which turn jammy under the broile...

My mind keeps slipping back to it since I read it yesterday, back and back. It's so deep and sad and beautiful that it makes me shiver.

I made her coconut fish last night.

I really need Democrats running for office to internalize just being humongous fucking bitches back to right-wing accusations. This was Biden's best trait on the campaign trail. How many genders are there? "At least three."
