Just stay down in the zone, Norm. That’s all we ask.

You know Jerry I didn’t think I could afford another planet at the time, but oh I just can’t imagine life without it now!!

Just straight psychopaths running the country now.

If you have a chainsaw dribble a little bar oil over them. 🧑‍🍳💋

Matt Damon playing a 14th century French knight that looks like a third baseman for the Phillies. Mullet. Beard. Smells like horse shit, pine tar, and cigarette smoke.

Matt Damon while playing Odysseus who also looks like a third baseman for the Phillies. Long, skinny beard. Smells like horseshit, pine tar, and perhaps Mediterranean herbs.

Matt Damon playing a 19th century cowboy that looks like a third baseman for the Phillies. Mustache. Shaggy hair. Smells like horse shit, pine tar, and definitely chewing tobacco.

Every time Matt Damon takes on a period role he ends up looking like a third baseman for the Phillies.

My father's father was a violent drunk. My father became a father too young and had never been shown how to control his anger. He knew how to stay away from alcohol, but not the belt. 1/?

Looks like the pedophile party picked up another key draft pick.

Really not a fan of this new conception of masculinity that’s all whiny entitlement and permissiveness with none of the responsibility.

Years before Trump I worked with a woman who pointed this type out, men who need constant praise/attention, often unwarranted, who first rage then sulk if they feel it’s not enough. Realized that was ~half the guys I knew. The clearest watershed moment of my life.

still can’t believe that given the choice between “bountiful, free, clean energy from the earth, wind, and sun” and “poisonous dead animal sludge price sensitive to global politics” we keep choosing the latter

Fascists and Nazis hate history, and historians; but understand the power of history. Thats why, across the world, they work so hard to control HOW we tell stories about the past, to drive out diverse critical voices and perspectives, to ensure a narrative that makes them look good.

There was no descent into madness. I did a cannonball.

Thus has it ever been.

Team Amphibian forever. At home alone in wooded hills or the most packed sidewalk you can find. All by choice of course. Covid-wise I understood why we had to isolate but never why we had to pretend to like it.

Gets easier with age. Trust me. I’m a doctor.

Maybe not propaganda, but word/wire Is Norway’s king loves dad-centric wordplay. Sit tight. I’ll make a call.

Was born in ‘68. Huge imprint from the 60’s shadow was that Hippies meant lib meant crazy sex/drug stuff. Conservative meant R meant straight-lace. Hooooooooo Daaaaaaaaawg, was that ever wrong!!

Spent eight days alone once by choice (canoe trip). Always say it was seven and a half too many.

Stevie can see!!

Considering History: The American Revolution’s Most Inspiring Patriots Include Enslaved African Americans | The Saturday Evening Post Many of the heroes of the American Revolution were unsung African Americans who used their critical patriotism to effect profound change.

& here on Patriots' Day, as on every other, let's better remember the American Revolution's most inspiring active & critical patriots, enslaved people like Massachusetts's own Elizabeth Freeman & Quock Walker who made the Revolution's ideals their own & helped abolish slavery in the state.

Had an uncle who tried that. 0/10.

Today's frog is the Canadian toad.

my edgy Covid take is that I while I did socially isolate until vaccines came online for the good of society, I absolutely loathed being unable to see people in person, throw a party, or travel for over a year, and I enjoyed absolutely nothing whatsoever about any of it

We all know who really invented the sandwich, and when:

Immediately felt nostalgic for Twitter because everyone on Bluesky is calmly and civilly sharing a news article in which this image is featured and not compulsively making deranged memes out of it
