Georgia's women's tennis team is the new Waldo and whatnot.
For what it's worth, I think y'all should give Fortune Feimster & Cheyenne Jackson a fox n friends style show. I know they'd crush it even tho I've never seen them do anything like that before lol

Why so much Chakotay hate?? He was lovely idc what y'all say, he was lovely & they did him wrong. Esp by announcing his very special episodes w that damn wood flute.
Y'all always did that thing. Spent some TAD time in the valley, nothing but respect from these quarters and can confirm we got the leftover food the FDA wouldn't approve for consumer sales & foreign govt's wouldn't accept as charity.
🧵 So, here goes, because I’ve had enough of the ‘embrace MTG’ bullshit. A thread of some of her ‘highlights’. I could put these in collages to make the thread shorter, but I want them viewed carefully and individually. And the thread could last forever. F*ck MTG forever! 🖕 1/

I'm not saying I'll fight them, but I will fight them. That's one of the best movies ever made, period. And I'll fight about that too lol
On the day we memorialize Jackie Robinson, let's not forget that he died too soon b/c of racism. What he suffered through absolutely killed him in the end; just read the intro to his autobiography.
That book is fantastic & terrifying. But it was nice to learn how PBR got its name lol

Texas gubernatorial candidate Gina hinojosa speaks to a full house
Meanwhile, in Houston, gubernatorial candidate Gina Hinojosa is talking about Greg Abbott trafficking people into Texas’s private prisons and detention centers so that his donors will profit, and I really appreciate her for it.
So I'm a Xenial or whatever y'all call us on the cusp & my last job was in a call center; I'd sit & knit while I was on a call or whatever & so many youts talked to me about it we started a knitting club. It was actually kinda cool, glad to see we weren't the only ones.
That was NY, right? I really hope that's being looked into as well
You know I knew that Door Dash woman looked familiar

That was fascinating, thank you for platforming it
