I feel absolutely nuts that people are discovering matcha like it’s some unknown treat in 2026… I was getting it at a Starbucks in the suburbs of Charlotte, NC in 2004? I think I had a matcha frappucino before I’d had sushi or Thai food

I had a dream Francisco Alvarez won NL MVP and couldn’t go because he was too busy with his baby
Francisco Alvarez!
The obvious answer here is that the student protest movement was broadly smeared as anti-semitic and aligned with terrorists, and a variety of institutions from government, media and the universities acted as if that smear was true, threatening, suspending, expelling and even deporting students.
Also across several college parties my friend the DJ played the opening song from this album, and every time I ran up to him and asked what it was and couldn’t remember the next day

This was on the playlist at the grocery store I worked at and for months I was like “in between the Billy Joel or whatever they play this hypnotic disco jam with an out of tune sounding bass line, i think it’s called Good Time”
If you're so committed to publishing a diversity of viewpoints how come no one's ever writing, like, "wow the president is just a delusional, dying, old fuckin evil idiot ruining everything" i.e the plain truth that anyone can see
They’re tearing down the car wash/quick lube next door to Life In Its Poetic Form Christian Ministries
I had an absolutely hilarious moment last night where I’ve been looking at my kid for a week and thinking “she kind of looks like someone… certain facial expressions, she reminds me of someone, but I can’t place it” and then I finally figured out it is Myself. She makes faces that look like me. Wtf
this gets better: today they called to say, hi, we actually told you the wrong information about how to fill out that form. Please submit it again
6 day old is like “sorry dad but your guitar playing is very literally the worst sound I’ve ever heard”
Some of the worst sleep of my life while receiving levels of oxytocin that would make me love a river rock with a face painted on
A good one: I told my grandma the baby’s middle name and she said “oh, that’s my name” in a totally neutral voice as if I may have given my baby a Spanish middle name by accident

You guys are laughing. Paul Skenes almost was in the Air Force, and you're laughing.
Also I just reread my post where I wrote “my daughter“ and started crying
I can only imagine Venezuela will now beat the US in the World Baseball Classic
I cannot fucking believe my daughter was born on St Patrick’s Day in a city with a mayor who thinks this way. A better world is possible
my favorite line: in the letter it says "Records do not reflect that the Member has submitted an AOR to the Plan designating you as the authorized representative." I am not authorized to represent myself? Is this like a "royal you" where the word "you" can mean "your doctor"?
but not before I asked "who am I supposed to put as my Authorized Representative" and they said, fill that in with the person you authorize to represent you.
I got this crazy letter from our insurance "care coordinator" asking me to sign something, it had all kinds of weird legalese and mixed up language, and when I called the help line they were able to translate it all to "sign this to allow your doctor to provide information to the insurance company"
I do not know anything about whatever technology they use for ABS, but how is it that it’s impossible to have an accurate 3d strike zone? Do we really not have the technology to accurately track a baseball?
This is a good lesson for journalists: Use plain language to state true things clearly.
today at the World Metaphors Classic the leader of the USA didn't bother to find out the details of the situation his team was in and blindly assumed they would win a matchup they ended up losing, jeopardizing their long-term standing for no good reason

Recently I cancelled an account and when it asked why I wrote “my company will pay for this subscription if I sign up using my work email.” They still sent me multiple semi-personalized times asking how they could get me back as a customer and why i left? I already told you?
Watching this now! Awesome that you’re there
I did something wrong and now I’m getting shown a huge number of posts about the conspiracy theory that Jim Carrey has been replaced by a lookalike
if I hire an exterminator to handle a roach infestation and he instead presents me with a list of reasons he is incapable of doing so while asking for more money so that he can maybe handle it later, I am not angrier at the roaches, I am in the market for a better exterminator
