I just saw an ad for a Bitcoin miner that promised you'd stop thinking about your ex and this is why satire feels impossible.

Hot take:
Forks are better at stirring beverages than spoons. They're whisk-like with the tines and more effectively dissolve things in a hot cup of tea.

Wow. The ICE shooter in Maine asked his ex-wife to "to lie for him and to cover for his character."
She said he was abusive and had previously reported concerns about him to his military superiors.
He was also a volunteer firefighter, but was removed after several spats with department leadership.

![A cropped screenshot of an article section titled "Gary Larson cartoon incident" from a Tumblr page. The text describes a controversy involving a Far Side cartoon and Jane Goodall.

Gary Larson cartoon incident
_____________
In 1987 Gary Larson published a Far Side cartoon of two chimpanzees grooming, in which one discovers a blonde hair and says, "Conducting a little more 'research' with that Jane Goodall tramp?"[127] The Jane Goodall Institute called the cartoon an "atrocity" in a letter drafted by its lawyers to Larson and his syndicate. Goodall, who was in Africa at the time, later found the cartoon amusing.[128]
She went on to name it her favourite depiction of herself in pop culture.[129] Larson offered profits from sales of a shirt featuring the cartoon to the Jane Goodall Institute.[130]
Goodall wrote the preface to The Far Side Gallery 5, detailing her version of the controversy.[131] She praised Larson's creative ideas, which often compare and contrast the behaviour of humans and animals.
In 1988 Larson visited Goodall's research facility in Tanzania.[128] While there, he was attacked by a chimpanzee named Frodo.[127][132]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:qdtwslusias4dnfmqydvudsq/bafkreiab4xelozcgki2mm2n3wwq5vdhbvve7v76enl6wbonavz6gjc2p7u)

I’m just trying to imagine the coverage a Democratic administration would get if gas was $4.55 and Dems were like, ‘Sounds great to us!’ Fox would be asking when white folk would be violently storming the Capitol. Again.
With gas at $4.55 a gallon, Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy says "we're in a good place" for fuel prices, and urges Americans to drive this summer, saying "we encourage all Americans to take a road trip"

1. Cheetahs are endangered
2. Cheetahs were once semi-domesticated by Sumerians
3. Cheetahs are the safest big cat for zookeepers to interact with freely.
∴ We should domesticate a breed of tame, house cheetahs to ensure at least partial survival of the species.
And for the big kitty cuddles.
