Too much bitterness for just one. At least two students must have refused to sleep with him.
"Yeah, we-- and by We I mean not just professors, not just academics, not just scientists, but all Human Beings-- suck!"
Thank you.

"Control"? Is that what we're calling it now?
That blows my mind.
Guys, we need to examine our souls and stop making Gops do all these horrific things!
Super lucky for me, right at that time that the Irish jam was going on hiatus for a while, I was able to convince a couple of friends from there to start doing music at our houses, and that's been going on since the first COVID disaster. Apart from family milestones, it's the best thing ever.

No problem! No people.
When that one race car driver died, I suggested that the kid pissing on his number should have a tear in his eye, and a fellow Twitter reader spoke up to tell me I misunderstood the institution of pissing kid.

Oh boy I've unlocked another discount in this thing I never use. What unfathomably good luck I must have.
Could they at least make those little colorful rebus dots so that if you hover over them or click on them you can see them bigger and have a clue as to what they are supposed to represent? Even better would be if it showed a hovertext word. Words are good.
Low IQ? That's the descriptor Trump saves for, you know, members of ethnic minorities.
“It’s amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.”
- Harry Truman
As Trump proves often, the reverse of this is also true.
It’s amazing how much you can fuck things up when the only thing you care about is getting the credit.

And I bet he would still rant about "all the time Obama spent on the golf course".
For a brief moment there, I thought I was looking at Pete Hegseth's tattoo.

So Fritzi had a brother. We can guess that something happened to him. Probably pissed Nancy off.

A jury in North Carolina has found rideshare giant Uber liable for the behavior of a driver who grabbed the inner thigh of a passenger as she was leaving the front seat of his car and asked her if he could "keep her" with him.
Why is the House not holding Bondi in contempt? Why is Oversight not holding Epstein hearings? Why is Oversight not doing more in this case?
Good Question! (1/3)
