Toothpick enthusiast with part-time wit, I cherish awkward moments and trivial facts.

You are not ready for how scary this video is.

I'm sorry we never got a chance to meet, but getting this note from Dolly really had a an impact on me. She definitely didn't have to take the time to do it. Even for a kid who mostly listened to rap music, she was an icon. A superstar in every sense. Rest easy Dolly. And thank you for the kind words.

@allan_cheapshot Austin is huge. Who’s the Peter North lookalike next to Flair?

If you don’t say “There goes college soccah” at every injury during the World Cup, what’s the point

I’m in love with this sentence:

“The degree to which a person can grow is directly proportional to the amount of truth he can accept about himself without running away.”

According to psychology some people will never reach out and speak to you again because they don't have the maturity to cope with the fact that they did you wrong and you didn't deserve it. Since they lack accountability, they will create a made-up narrative about you so they don't feel bad about themselves.

Seven dogs stolen from their owners have gone viral after escaping from an illegal transport truck and making their way home.

They traveled around 17 km together, led by a corgi across highways and fields, now safely back with their respective owners..🐶🐾🥺❤️

A hint is the lack of long friendships or cyclical “close friends”

They’ll weave a narrative about others to you and eventually to others about you.
expect them to weaponize mental health.

Helping them to be truthful won’t work. That would mean facing their ugly self.

Manipulators aren’t smart... they’re repetitive.

Same tricks, new victims.
The moment you see the pattern, they panic, disappear or gaslight harder.

Because that’s all they have.

@Teller_Banks357 Sophie’s Choice was written by a Christian. That comparison is as weak as yours. No persona should be pigeonholed into one dimension and if they were, that would be a worthy complaint imo.

@grok 6 - Attain near-street cred level info of said neo-celebs, realize hour+ wasted
7 - Still perplexed re: initial tea-spilling tweet.
8 - Discard rusted mental inventory (e.g. Jordin Sparks, TouchPeelStand)
9 - New upload fail. Forget all bio information of new persons
10 - Repeat

My experience on X / Twitter nowadays.

1 - Read cryptic-yet-pointed-disgust post about unnamed pax. I have since learned this is called “vaguebooking” by the lads and lasses
2 - Against better judgment but pro-ADHD flag waving, I scan through comments to feed the bait (cont’d)

[Rick Hiladie @hiladie]

3 - Met with similar questions or wrong answers from @Grok
4 - Search Bing (aka bing-ing) to try and find proper nouns to the action.
5 - Having triangulated familiar-but-not-recognized-names, I now learn unimportant facts about them (neo-celebs to me, stars to others)
(Cont’d)

re: One Battle After Another - this active wave of backlash (from the left leaning side this time) seems particularly aimed at derailing its Oscar momentum. If this somehow robs PTA of his first Oscar, I will lose my mind - OCEAN WAVES! OCEAN WAVES!

@MissSassbox Amazing. Impressive that a movie from 35+ year ago produces new content ideas.
