Equal parts coffee/sarcasm. Occasionally attempting to add fun into profundity.

Miraculously passed for a European traveler by answering a man in (very) broken French. How he came to this conclusion, I've yet to understand. #somewhereinasia

Same people responsible for the semi-recent Astroworld tragedy has now released a new lineup of popular bands with exceedingly massive fan bases, all set to perform on a single day. In the midst of a pandemic with a highly mutative and transmissible variant. What could go wrong?

Four to six in the morning Twitter is my least favorite Twitter. Not because of you beautiful people, but because it usually means that I am once again, not sleeping.

The need to publicly post whenever you’ve done a good deed has always been the most childish trend. If you’re doing it for the views, likes or comments, then you’re doing it for all of the wrong reasons. Do the deed, feel good about it, and go about the rest of your day.

“You were told Mr. Floyd died because his heart was too big. After seeing the evidence, you know Mr. Floyd died because Derek Chauvin’s heart was too small”

Over 26 years on the police force and the general public is expected to believe that Officer Kim Potter had grabbed, pointed and fired her handgun by mistake? Her taser is bright yellow and is stationed on the opposite side of her body. Completely unacceptable. #DaunteWright

[Jackie Khan @jackiekhan]

It’s damning for law enforcement officials to attempt to spin the killing of unarmed Daunte Wright as an “accident.” It’s an all-too-frequent occurrence admitting that many of them are exceedingly incompetent in addition to racist and violent. #DaunteWright

'Accidental discharge': The police chief in a Minneapolis suburb where a Black man was fatally shot during a traffic stop said Monday that he believes the officer who fired intended to use a Taser, not a handgun. https://t.co/2Pr7lMQgND

It’s slightly annoying that Face ID doesn’t recognize me while I’m yawning. Like HELLO, it’s still me now let. me. into. my. phone.

Thinking of today’s much awaited annual daylight saving time festivities as not, “losing an extra hour of sleep” but instead as, “gaining a slightly more abhorrent morning.” #DaylightSavingTime

[Jackie Khan @jackiekhan]

Life update: threw the alarm across the room this morning just so that I could make a joke to myself about how time flies. Overslept. Worth it. #DaylightSavingTime

As Rob Base and DJ E-Z Rock would say, “It takes two to make a thing go right.”

Biden: "No one can tell me that if it had been a group of Black Lives Matters protestors, they wouldn’t have been treated very, very differently than the mob of thugs that stormed the Capitol. We all know that’s true. And that is unacceptable. Totally unacceptable."

Serious question. Do you think he knows what ANTIFA stands for? Asking for a friend.

[Mo Brooks @RepMoBrooks]

Please, don’t be like #FakeNewsMedia, don’t rush to judgment on assault on Capitol. Wait for investigation. All may not be (and likely is not) what appears. Evidence growing that fascist ANTIFA orchestrated Capitol attack with clever mob control tactics.

Evidence follows:

The breadth of damage that has been inflicted to this country cannot be overstated. Positive change and morality is what we need.

From the beginning of his 4 year term up until the very end. Riots, racial division, social injustice and universal outrage. Donald Trump can finally brag about being the first president in history to continuously incite petulance and hatred among a nation he was meant to unite.

[Joél Leon. @JoelakaMaG]

i am tired of "this is not who we are" rhetoric.

the same america that pillaged and slaughtered indigenous folx for land, that enslaved millions, that created internment camps, is the SAME america storming the capitol building today.

[Congresswoman Cori Bush (Archived) @RepCori]

I believe the Republican members of Congress who have incited this domestic terror attack through their attempts to overturn the election must face consequences. They have broken their sacred Oath of Office.

I will be introducing a resolution calling for their expulsion.

[Jackie Khan @jackiekhan]

On the day law enforcement once again learned that they were able shoot citizens in public and face no legal consequences, the Capitol Hill police allowed a caucasian mob to ransack the U.S. Capitol Building.

[Jackie Khan @jackiekhan]

The media outlets lack the proper vocabulary. Law enforcement weren't incompetent, they were complicit. They were affable in a way that most in our country have never seen. It’s clear that the president did not intend to calm anyone down. He intended to incite. #whiteprivilege

It’s oddly satisfying when you spot someone singing and dancing alone in their car, only to gradually realize that a majority of their movements and facial expressions are from Toddlers & Tiaras. #YouGoMan
