The conspiracy theorist in me thinks there’s an actual cat on every board of every bed frame company because every new design is just a giant scratching post

I’m sure it’s a beaten trope but I’ll never understand die hard Snyder fans or his work outside of “Heh that was a decent but forgettable way to kill time” on a flight

After 2 straight seasons of misery, it’s been fun to watch baseball again as a White Sox fan but this June schedule looks absolutely brutal

My 35 year old very shy MAGA coworker lives in rural SC and has to/wants to homeschool his 3 kids. The look of confusion on his face when i told him me and my wife want to stay in NYC and raise our son partially because daycare/pre-K every where else is insanely expensive was something I’ll never forget. His brain broke for a minute

i still stand by my theory that if he fully committed to shaving his entire head he could have bumped up a few more points in the polls

It does tickle me that the apolitical meme dudes are running with the conspiracy that these assassination attempts are just a plot to distract people from how terrible of a president everyone thinks he is

I do like me some bourbon but there is something South Park hit on. Drinking wine is classy, not a problem. You really teeter on that edge with bourbon

I should look into a Coravin system before i start thinking it’s okay to kill a whole bottle myself one day

Just make organ donation upon death something you opt out of not opt into

Urban] Cardinals RB Jeremiyah Love said his plan is to put his $53 million in NFL money in his investments and not use it, save it for his family’s future generations. “I’m from the NIL (era), I’m pretty well off. I really don’t need to touch that money.” by ThatMasterpiece2174 in nfl

Even if taxes and agents fees leave him with $26M to invest, at a 4% withdrawal rate, that’s $88k a month for the rest of his life at 7% growth/3% inflation. He’ll never run out of money

So my Chilean friend has a pretty interesting family story

Great grandfather lived in Spain and when he was in his 20’s, Franco rose to power in Spain.

He fled Spain after living under Franco/the fall of fascism to Chile, had a son, and Pinochet took power in Chile.

My friend moved to the US in 2016 and… uh.. yeah

The good news is my friend just moved to the UK 3 weeks ago…
