WIFE: You're very quiet. What are you thinking?

ME: They should call the receipt the cashier gives you a 'buyography' and the one from the self-checkouts an 'autobuyography'.

HER: Sometimes it's ok to say 'nothing'

Love this vehicle. One of the most climate-friendly options on the planet, and it looks dope. Oh and there’s a cybertruck in the picture too

We should have nonstop celebrations for two weeks between Juneteenth and July 4th and link the holidays together because it would give us a summer festival season, would be patriotic as shit, and Juneteenth celebrates the worst affront to our founding principles being rectified

No one talks about the real problem with exercising: you have to keep doing it.

This is legitimately one of the most unethical things I’ve ever seen from a public official. Thomas was receiving, on average, $200,000 a year in gifts.
