My first year teaching, I tweeted "Let me slip into something more comfortable. Ya know, like a coma." My principal saw it, called a conference with my department head, and openly questioned my mental health with a print screen of my twitter feed lmao

[Kyle 🌱 @KylePlantEmoji]

You know what would be refreshing and honestly sounds so good right now? A coma

[Ben @captain__benny]

"Less" by Olivia Rodrigo has me sobbing because what do you mean "If loving me means letting go and wishing me the best / Then I guess / I wish, I wish, I wish / You loved me less" 😭

[Ben @captain__benny]

Tempted to send a "happy birthday" text just to see if it'll actually go through

[Ben @captain__benny]

So, we all know that shooting was staged, right? Like, the first one was obviously not real but this was even more poorly acted. They're not even trying to make it look real. This administration has fucked themselves so badly that they're this desperate to change perception.

[Ben @captain__benny]

I feel this in my soul. I was at the DMV yesterday and I felt like I was in purgatory.

[Aaron West @oeste]

name me three more miserable places to be than the dmv (department of motor vehicles). You can’t.

[Ben @captain__benny]

Well, at least we know before the draft even takes place that the Dolphins are in full tank mode going into next season. Gonna have a lot of extra free time on Sundays this fall.

[Ben @captain__benny]

Often. Last year I worked 160 hours of overtime and other years I worked far more than that. Even while I've been a teacher, my work would come home with me and I'd work well beyond school hours without being compensated for it.

[𝐌𝐚𝐭𝐭 𝐏𝐢𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐫 @Matt_Pinner]

Trying to prove a point..

[Ben @captain__benny]

@nonstabIe Yes. Where do I sign up?

[Ben @captain__benny]

I mean, if you ignore the state of public education, overdevelopment destroying ecosystems, decaying infrastructure and endless unfinished construction, overpopulation, skyrocketing living costs, diminishing job market, and literally everything else about Florida, sure. Great.

[Jarren Feldman @jarrenfeldman]

Florida is hands down the best State in the USA

[Ben @captain__benny]

Listen, I know it would never happen, but the sheer joy it would bring me if Yoshi just had Donald Glover's voice, it would be the greatest thing to ever grace the big screen.

[JOLLY J✨ @DynamoSuperX]

I KNOW YOU FUCKING LYING. 💀

CHILDISH GAMBINO IS PLAYING YOSHI???

[Ben @captain__benny]

I have literally one device actively using internet in my house and Spectrum is so bad that I can't even view my email because the internet connection is so awful. I had better service with DSL back in the 90s.

[Ben @captain__benny]

I'm about tired of paying for Spectrum internet. Service slows down at peak time (over 100mbps slower than what I pay for), 15% packet loss, constant lag, awful connection, like Spectrum genuinely isn't worth using. Terrible service.

[Ben @captain__benny]

This is price gouging. Historically, barrel prices above $80 have yielded per gallon prices under $3 and generally in the $2.50-2.80 range. The US used to not see $3.50/gallon until barrel prices were over $140. This is price gouging, and it is theft.

[The Kobeissi Letter @KobeissiLetter]

BREAKING: US oil prices surge above $90/barrel, up +14% on the day, now at the highest level since October 2023.

We expect to see US gas prices above $3.50/gallon by Monday.

[Ben @captain__benny]

Y'all remember when @ochocinco would get on here and randomly help people struggling with money pay their bills? Man I miss those days because Lord knows I could use a helping hand right now 😅

[Ben @captain__benny]

@CBSNews is not a legitimate news source anymore. Blatantly airing propaganda under the guise of "news," ignoring the elementary school that was targeted and children left dead, and justifying an act of war and terrorism on behalf of Israel is fucking reprehensible.

[Ben @captain__benny]

If other countries can arrest politicians and the Brits can arrest Prince Andrew because of affiliation to Epstein, surely we can and should do the same.

[Ben @captain__benny]

@CieloBonit I clicked on this hoping it was satire but realizing you're actually a fucking idiot and a clown is entirely on brand. Yikes. We should bring back the days when you'd have tomatoes thrown at you in a public square for saying stupid shit like this.

[Ben @captain__benny]

Jake Paul made a typical racist, tone-deaf Twitter complaint about Bad Bunny performing, and you know what, it's too bad Anthony Joshua only broke his jaw and not his fingers.

[Ben @captain__benny]

Bad Bunny's performance was fantastic. My only gripe is that I wish DTMF was performed in full at the end because it's such a beautiful song. Regardless, the halftime show was incredible and Benito showed out. All the love to him and everyone who put on such an amazing show.

[Ben @captain__benny]

Ilhan Omar was ready to square up after that dude sprayed her at the town hall and honestly she's so real for that lmao

[Ben @captain__benny]

Can confirm. TikTok is actively censoring just the name "Epstein" and flagging it as a potential violation of Community Guidelines. TikTok is trying to censor free speech and protect pedophiles by preventing people from communicating about the Epstein Files.

[grizzy @Furbeti]

Days after the US took over majority ownership of TikTok, the word ‘Epstein’ has been censored.
