Sometimes my emotions get “stuck” and I really need to cry but can’t. The floodgates opened earlier and I cried about everything I needed to cry about, but then couldn’t stop and also wept about professional wrestling (again).

Me, when I overhear someone talking about one of my special interests

If you peaked in high school and drink alone in your recliner every night while watching Fox News because you have nothing to contribute to society and everyone you love has left your sorry ass after realizing you have zero humanity or redeemable qualities, hey, could could always join ICE.

I try to move my body in a way that makes me feel joyful for 20 minutes a day on top of my normal walks with my dog. Today I realized I’ve always wanted to dance like the girl in the Groove Is In The Heart video, so that’s exactly what I did.

MORE JOY AND WHIMSY IN OUR LIVES PLEASE.

If you’re feeling a deep rage inside of you that kind of scares you but also feels like power, I can’t recommend Florence and the Machine’s “Everybody Scream” enough. The whole album.

No one has ever been more out of their depth lol
On Thursday morning, a day after hastily suggesting the person who gunned down Charlie Kirk was in custody, Kash Patel, the F.B.I. director, convened an online meeting with 200 agents around the country to discuss the manhunt. It was a tense affair. Mr. Patel and his deputy, Dan Bongino, made it clear they were under intense pressure to catch the killer of Mr. Kirk. They expressed themselves with such fierce urgency that, in the view of some participants, it hinted at another motive: to prove they were up to the task. The director wasted no time before calling out subordinates that he said failed to give him timely information and was incensed that agents in Salt Lake City waited nearly 12 hours to show him a photo of the suspected killer, according to three people familiar on the exchange. Mr. Patel said he would not tolerate any more "Mickey Mouse operations," an official on the call recounted. It was one of his few utterances without profanity, the person added.

Pet parrots which typically live alone (whilst those in the wild live in large flocks) were given the technology to call each other. They would use it for up to three hours a day, and developed favourite friends 💔

When a parrot wanted to connect with a distant friend, a touchscreen showed a selection of other birds available online. The parrots learned to activate the screen, designed specially for them, by touching it gently with their tongues rather than pecking aggressively with their beaks. "We had 26 birds involved," said Hirskyj-Douglas. "They would use the system up to three hours a day, with each call lasting up to five minutes." The interactions ranged from preening and playing with toys to loud vocal exchanges. "When we went through the data, we found that most of these parrots had favourite friends," said Hirskyj-Douglas.

This is why they usually give shooters three names! “Lee Harvey Oswald” isn’t what his friends called him, it’s what the authorities released to avoid other Lee Oswalds getting mistaken. It’s weird they didn’t do it in this case.

A pang of sympathy when it turns out to be somebody with an extremely common name like Tyler Robinson, which means a decent number of people are waking up very confused about why their phone is blowing up right now.

Kirk didn't serve in the military or hold office. The war hero treatment -- half-mast flags, military guard, Air Force Two escort, calls for a statue at the Capitol or to lie in the Rotunda -- shows that for MAGA, service to Trump has become the highest, most honorable form of service.

Super weird that the guy who was Practicing Politics The Right Way somehow magically seems to have a following so racist against Black people that him getting shot by a white person in the whitest state in USA results in 7 Black universities receiving terror threats.

What's this got to do with us?!

It’s almost like letting young white men marinate their brains in an algorithm-driven toxic stew of nihilistic hate 24/7 and giving them ready access to guns is a bad idea

Q: My condolences on the loss of your friend Charlie Kirk. How are you holding up?

TRUMP: I think very good. And by the way, right there you see all the trucks. They just started construction of the new ballroom for the White House, which is something they've been trying to get for about 150 years.
