There are only so many shapes. Nature is bound to repeat itself.

I won't make off-color jokes here. I will leave them for you to tell at your next happy hour or cocktail party.

A newly found fish discovered off Venezuela’s coast has shot to internet stardom even before scientists have chosen its official name.

Thanks to a viral photo circulating online, thousands of people have begun calling the strange-looking species “Bonnie Fish” because of its unique appearance.

The nickname exploded across social media, turning an unnamed marine find into a worldwide sensation and instantly earning the fish a huge fan following.

Current New York vibe heading into tonight:

@DarrigoMelanie This is hilarious, and cute, and nostalgic, and...dare I say...emotional. And I'm not a Knicks fan! But I do live in NYC. Awesome graphic.

You can’t say Derrick Rose. Name an athlete you wish had a fully healthy career.

Does anyone know if this is true? Not seeing it anywhere else.

BREAKING: Anthropic has filed confidentially for an IPO.

@RooferSteve21 @burackbobby_ That's a very good point, actually. While it's only one data point, so correlative at best, I would admit that most cigar smokers in my circle are over achievers. I also live in Manhattan (which is a selective attribute) but only half true in my hometown of Detroit.

WTF is this?

[Greg Abbott @GregAbbott_TX]

Spurs about to dunk on Knicks like Texas has been dunking on New York.

Go Spurs Go 🔥👽

@Myles_Younger @KevOnStage Exactly. "Semi made," was shorthand for fold the sheets back up toward the pillow. Stripped before I checkout, tho. No need to make the maid do it.

[Therran Oliphant @Therran]

@RooferSteve21 @burackbobby_ I would agree. LOL. Also, Cigars are such a time investment that you can't just get one in before the interview. The discrimination there is on delayed gratification and quality. It's like the difference between Franzia and El Enemigo.

I appreciate the honest convo, brother🫱🏾‍🫲🏻

The media has made me despise him. Honestly, that crying sh*t was corny after ducking the media following a loss.

[Spike Eskin @SpikeEskin]

I might have to switch my position for the Finals and need someone to stop the Wemby Media Alliance. This is ridiculous.

[Therran Oliphant @Therran]

@RooferSteve21 @burackbobby_ That may be true in a microcosm, I will never invalidate your lived experience. But you should read this so you understand the macro:

@RooferSteve21 @burackbobby_ And to do some recall, MLK Jr. was killed *after* he began focusing on bringing the disenfranchised classes together against that same system.

[Therran Oliphant @Therran]

@RooferSteve21 @burackbobby_ "None" is dubious, as there are likely things that don't even cross your awareness that are privileges.

However, you're right. Class should be a much bigger concern, yet you're focused on reverse racism. The bigger impediment are the structures that maintain the class system.

[Therran Oliphant @Therran]

@RooferSteve21 @burackbobby_ I didnt say "get even," but even the playing field. Getting even connotes retribution.

You're falling into the trap of viewing this with no empathy and the zero sum proposition that seems to prevail the thinking of many Euro Americans. Imagine a cultural imperative not your own

@tkawaja C - as a concept, but half of those companies don't exist anymore.

E - if you're a sadist and hate humanity.

A - only if holdcos get product right

B and D - are probably going to sputter the most
