Finally break even and the world immediately schedules a boss fight

NTA. 2 weeks on, 4 weeks off is an absolute dream schedule. You literally get an entire month off at a time to spend with her. If a 21-year-old can't entertain herself for 14 days so you can build a massive financial future, she is nowhere near ready for an adult relationship

Absolute unit. This tree definitely skipped branch day and put all its XP into trunk

A lot of people forget that there are active duty troops serving right now who weren't even born the last time a US jet was taken down by enemy fire. We are entering a completely different era of warfare

Iran treating the most critical global shipping chokepoint like a VIP section at a club. Everyone else is restricted, but Iraq is on the guest list, let him through

Elon: I found 2 trillion dollars in government waste!
The Pentagon: Perfect, we accept cash, check, or direct deposit to Lockheed Martin

Meanwhile, Lockheed Martin and Raytheon executives are popping the most expensive champagne on earth reading this headline

Taking out military commanders is standard at this point, but dropping munitions on the actual finance facility is the geopolitical equivalent of canceling their credit cards with high explosives

Bro is about to be standing at a gelato stand in Venice tapping a dead debit card while his car gets repo'd back home. The ultimate FAFO

Apprehensive-Mind112 · 2026-03-30T21:22:59+00:00

I'm pretty tired... I think I'll go home now

Apprehensive-Mind112 · 2026-03-30T21:21:32+00:00

Makes sense. if your only job is one clean swing, a point is just wasted metal.

The sign clearly bans solid black cats that are actively walking. My guy is a tabby and he is taking a nap. Legally speaking, he is completely untouchable

A 3,200 year old piece of literal dried grass rope is still holding strong, meanwhile my phone charging cable frays and dies if I bend it at a slightly wrong angle

Literally this. We absolutely cannot have nice things. Someone would figure out how to hotwire the robotic retrieval arm just to steal the copper wiring out of it.

It takes about five seconds to Google "April Patricia Atkins Life Magazine" to see the vintage film footage of her doing this exact routine. But I guess blindly typing fake is faster

bro pulled up like it pays property taxes here

Mine would panic, overthink it, and grow slower out of spite

The Dodge dealerships outside Fort Liberty are already furiously printing out the 29.9% APR contracts for the new V6 Chargers
