have you ever heard a land acknowledgment followed by an acknowledgment of the zodiac calendar?
My wife always thought it was "I'm the firestarter, terrific firestarter!" and it's very, very cute
The media's takeaway from an El-Sayed win is the same as it would have been from a Stevens win, and the same as it will be if El-Sayed wins the general, or if he loses it: everyone, no matter who they are, needs to take several steps to the right.
Bluesky's pervert community really missed their chance to put "Michigan" in posts of their dicks hanging out.
Michiganders: they sound like freakish muppets when they speak and they can't count.
Yeah, I worked on a union campaign. How could you tell?
I came out of an oatmeal-boring Lutheran church and yet my mom would buy me devotionals like this one (I remember this exact cover). They made me neurotic and ultimately made me quit religion.

One of those squads that hunts for nazis after WW2 but instead it's for everyone who worked on the webp file format.
i'm chill if they want to be lemmings
“Send me,” a likely reference to Isaiah 6:8, about the prophet Isaiah becoming God’s messenger. The implication here is that the military under Trump and Hegseth is fulfilling God’s mission. This is more theocratic Christian nationalism on display from the Department of War.
People point out movie tropes for the same reasons they point out argument fallacies, oxford commas and the fact that they're called "cartridges" and not "bullets:" because it's the only specialized field of knowledge they have and they want a gold star for it.
