British reality shows: here in a meadow, 12 jolly bakers compete to bake the tastiest sticky toffee pudding

"i would kill for $15 an hour when I was your age!"

$15 in 1980 = $57 an hour today

$15 in 1990 = $35 an hour today

$15 in 2012 (when the fight for $15 wage began) = $20 an hour today

I’ve watched 29 MCU movies.

I’ve never seen a shot as ridiculous and incredible as this truck/animal shot in RRR (on Netflix)

I can barely remember my own name but just know that if I was accidentally rude to you in 2002 I’m still thinking about it

Them: “But what would the founding fathers say?”

Me, a historian: “I literally do not care.”

For all those framing the Supreme Court’s ruling as a loss for Biden, don’t you also live on this planet?

“And what makes it particularly dangerous is that it sends a blaring signal to all future nominees that they can now lie to duly elected members of the United States Senate in order to secure… seats on the Supreme Court.” @AOC

the eternal tension between wanting to travel, learn a new language, explore the world’s foods and cultures, and also stay at home with a book in my lap and doze off beside a rainy window
