Tim Curry, the absolute legend, turns 80 today. This man took huge swings.

I don't recall any previous transformative technologies that had to be sold to the public so hard. No one in 1999 was going, "Guys. Cell phone? It's coming, whether we like it or not. I think it's important, FOR WOMEN ESPECIALLY, to learn about cell phone. So that we're not left behind!!"

Here's a fun thread

Everything is fucking dumb all the time now

This is @glutelord.bsky.social and he's completely fucking correct. The fundamental tension at the heart of all incel culture is that these guys HATE women and refuse to appeal to them but desperately want to get laid anyway, and this contradiction can only really be resolved through violence

Hahahahahaha go fuck yourself.

Average GOP Congressman: We err...uhhh...don't uh need uh...oversight of the DoD because uh...we trust the President to decide what's best

Donald Trump: I AM JESUS CHRIST RETURNED TO EARTH THE POPE ISN'T MAGA AND HE'S WEAK ON NUCLEAR WEAPONS I AM GOING TO BUILD A HOTEL ON THE MOON

Viktor Orban accomplished so much of what the Trump movement wants to accomplish here

he ruled for 16 years and rewrote the rules in his favor

and still, they threw him out

and you know what? they did it by voting

don’t let anyone tell you voting doesn’t matter

Watching Brazil, South Korea and Hungary get rid of their authoritarians

Reminder: they are never as powerful as they want you to think they are

Would be great if Manfred instituted this rule in MLB: only dogs can be bat boys.

One day, "It" will happen, by which I mean sudden and unexpected news that you want to celebrate. In such cases, you will want the right outfit. 🧵

You develop an instant global consciousness, a people orientation, an intense dissatisfaction with the state of the world, and a compulsion to do something about it. From out there on the moon, international politics look so petty. You want to grab a politician by the scruff of the neck and drag him a quarter of a million miles out and say, ‘Look at that, you son of a bitch

News is too fraught right now. Don’t screw around with April Fools garbage today.

A light green sticker that says FUCK SCOTUS. The "Fuck" is made up of capital letters that are actually composed of flowers. Underneath this, in small print, it says "(with an ethics code and six more justices)"

Hey all, we still have a limited number of these charming stickers left over from our last Romancing the Vote.

In honor of SCOTUS fuckery on today, the Trans Day of Visibility, we'd like to offer you the chance to get one. (Thread continues.)
