It's weird being older.
The obvious solution to the TSA lines is to abolish it. We did without that security theater for ages. It's been demonstrated OVER AND OVER to do nothing. It just funnels more money to bullshit.
ICE and TSA were created wholecloth in 2003 and 2001 respectively.

Coffee cake on a paper plate
Update: DELICIOUS
(it was apparently good enough for her, a legendary baker, to clip it from a newspaper. my grandpa ate a sweet for breakfast every day, and I'm turning into him in that way. so, I'm hopeful)
Am I wide awake, pie-eyed at 1:30 am? Yes. Yes, I am. So I decided to use my insomnia and make the coffee cake recipe that I found in my grandma's recipe box yesterday.
Will sleepless cake be a good breakfast? We'll find out tomorrow 🍀🤞

Lol I made my ex SO JEALOUS when he was droning on about the Thor movie and I just went, "okay but WHY did they put one of the most beautiful men ever to live in that stupid helmet tho"
😂😂😂
I mean. He's SO fine.
Meanwhile I have been searching for a job for TWO. YEARS.
Liam himself is five goddamned years old and should be at home with an adult he trusts right now no matter who his parents are. It would not matter if they were literal criminal masterminds, Liam Ramos is a baby and babies do not belong in prison.

In the spirit of Celebrating Things We Love in These Horrible Times, meet Rudolph
He's only got one antler, so I call him Rudolph because he's a misfit

do you know how fucked everything has to be for DAVID HOGG to be like “it’s okay for people to have guns”
There are about 100 protesters outside Schumer’s building in the middle of the blizzard urging him to whip Dem votes against any more ICE/CBP funding.
😭😭😭 remembering that first year old v new dorms snowball fight
(it was not an ice storm tho. ice storms stink. I'm very sorry.)
Instant tears but in the best way
IMAGINE IF ALL THAT MONEY HAD GONE TO TEACHERS INSTEAD
(okay well some of it could have gone to actual school infrastructure. just imagine)
A. Of course you can
B. It wasn't a protest
Mozz sticks

I'm currently very warm so I'm wearing shorts in the house
I need to cover my car before the snow arrives
But I don't want to change back into warm clothes
Do you think my cat will do it for me? If I bribe her with cheese?
We won't talk about how I should have done this hours ago
This is a white supremacist paramilitary operation. Their goal—their stated goal!—is to force America to submit to the President's racist domineering vision for the country.
The sooner everybody starts confronting it on the terms that they themselves have stated, the better.
Is anything more defining of America’s corrupted masculinity than the way our leaders praise and overwhelmingly fund child
abducting gestapo cosplaying as special forces, instead of nurses who worked through Covid and cared for dying veterans in the ICU?
A video of Alex Pretti reading out the final salute of an unnamed veteran he cared for until the end of his life in the ICU, posted to Facebook by his son.
Statement from Michael and Susan Pretti Parents of Alex Jeffrey Pretti “We are heartbroken but also very angry. Alex was a kindhearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends and also the American veterans whom he cared for as an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA hospital. Alex wanted to make a difference in this world. Unfortunately, he will not be with us to see his impact. I do not throw around the ‘hero’ term lightly. However, his last thought and act was to protect a woman. The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting. Alex is clearly not holding a gun when attacked by Trump’s murdering and cowardly ICE thugs. He had his phone in his right hand and his empty left hand is raised above his head while trying to protect the woman ICE just pushed down, all while being pepper sprayed. Please get the truth out about our son. He was a good man. Thank you.

who can forget the famous Boston Tea Party, in which a bunch of Boston's Finest gathered to sip on some tea after cracking the skulls of some dirty hippies who dared protest the King
