Imagine me in an unfamiliar grocery store, a weird cover of "What Is Love" by Haddaway playing in the background as I encounter this.
Was watching my favorite bow tie drop some freezing cold takes this morning when Ada came in and said "Race for the White House in 2028? Bruh. It's only 2026. Why are they talking about 2028?" And, well, I can't argue with that.
Nothing quite like minding my own business at the unexpectedly good $17.99 AYCE sushi place and being approached by an ex I dated over 15 years ago. I just wanted to enjoy mass quantities of salmon nigiri in peace. Is that too much to ask?
Reason #748382857 why anyone who somehow thinks this man is playing 4D Chess is a moron. This is probably one of the only halfway decent, truly bipartisan things Congress has done in years. His "protest" does absolutely nothing without a veto. And he'll probably try to take credit for it anyway.
BREAKING: President Trump said on Friday that he will not sign the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act, which is set to pass into law tonight, in protest over the Senate not passing the SAVE America Act.
Why is it that so often in politics people hold their enemies to higher standards than their friends? I shouldn't have had to hear about Graham Platner anymore after the thing about the Nazi tattoo. That there were at least four more scandals I've had to hear about after that is insane.
It's so adorable; I just want to pinch its cheeks. It did a thunder! ⛈️
Let it be known that I know nothing about soccer and simply chose the first three names I recognized from videos Ada watches about soccer to enter this free FanDuel contest. Now I have almost $75 of FanDuel bonus money to mess around with. 🤣
A guy who is running for our state House seat just came by. Ada came out with me and immediately hugged him so I guess he has our vote.
