I'm trying to Google "boneless skinless chicken thigh recipe" and the first Google suggestion is "boneless couch" and I have concerns.

I get yelled at for saying this but for many hundreds of years people went to university not to get diplomas or be employable but because immersion in the humanities was considered foundational to a good life, and school must return to its original purpose: the joy of learning.

there's so much bad in the world but there's also people who lift up and carry an elderly bat around every day so he can pretend he's flying again, and that's the part of the world I think is worth fighting for

Optical illusion of a woman bent over some papers. Her sunglasses are pushed up and she is wearing a hair band so the top of her head looks exactly like a Muppet face

My vet called and told me not to tranquilize him before bringing him in. He wasn't tranquilized, he was just a floppy, carefree, boneless hairball doing a vague cat impression. Miss that guy.

Exactly this.

And this is why it is extremely important that if you care about bodily autonomy you have to care about trans healthcare rights.

If the federal government can take away my right to testosterone, they can take away your right to birth control.

And they want to do both.

I've rarely smelled a smell worse than the used hat with the stupid plume they made me wear while playing "Love Shack" on a saxophone in the middle of a football field. The sweat of 20 years of band nerds foreheads just cooked into the felt.

Trump’s FCC pressured CBS into not airing Stephen Colbert’s interview of James Talarico.

Irish nationalβ€”married to US citizen, valid work permit, green card pendingβ€”thrown into ICE's "concentration camp." His story rips the mask off: Not safety, just cruelty. Locked up, dehumanized, family shattered. This isn't America. Shut these camps down. Demand justice. #sheshed

UAW: Ford worker who heckled Trump kept job, 'no discipline' on record The United Auto Workers union said TJ Sabula remains employed and called out the president for making an obscene gesture toward the worker.

"As UAW members, we speak truth to power. We don't just protect rights, we exercise them. TJ, we got your back."
