When an ex messages you, it's exting. Why? Because that 🍵 has long expired.

This man turns 100 years old tomorrow. He has shown us the world, its beauty, its fierce side, its weaknesses and how we affect it. We owe Sir David Attenborough a lot for his contribution to society, and for the voice memes around narration. A gift, if there ever was one.

David Attenborough spent over 70 years teaching humanity about earth; he just turned 100. Thank you David, you're a light amongst the darkness.

The best conversations feel like jazz. Someone plays a note, you extend it, they take it somewhere unexpected, you follow, and suddenly you're somewhere neither of you could have reached alone. No one is keeping score. No one is waiting for the other person to be wrong. The whole thing is generative each move makes the next move possible.

Maybe it's just me, but having "loser" tattooed on your neck feels like a self-fulfilling prophecy.

@ShellsPemBroke What's a birthday without someone crying?

39 and feeling fine* 🎉🥳🎉🥳🎉🥳 *except for all the trauma of the last few weeks

@CountDankulaTV Damn, a MadLads episode in real time. You've outdone yourself, Dankula.

The Afroman Trial. -Cops raid Afromans house for bullshit reasons. -Steal money, break his door, fuck his house up. -No criminality found whatsoever, no charges at all pressed on Afroman. -Afroman spends the next 3 years making songs that make fun of all the officers involved by name, even using footage of the raid from his own CCTV cameras. -Songs had titles like "Randy Walters is a son of a bitch" and "Lick Em Low Lisa" accusing one of the officers of being a lesbian and sleeping with the other officers wives. -During the raid one officer looked like he was about to eat some lemon pound cake sitting on Afromans counter, Afroman made a whole album calling the officer fat. -The cops get mad and file a lawsuit for defamation. -Afroman turns up to court in a whole American flag suit. -Officers performatively mald and cry while listening to the songs really trying to oversell how badly the songs upset them. -One officer was suing because Afroman made a whole song about him saying he was fucking the officers wife. When the officer was asked if Afroman was really fucking his wife, he said "I don't know". Nuking his own case and establishing that there is a non-zero chance that Afroman might actually be fucking his wife. -As his only witness for the trial, Afroman brought a deputies EX FUCKING WIFE. -The jury ruled completely in favour of Afroman. This entire thing has been a great win for free speech and absolutely fucking hilarious.

Let the record show: the great cultural twitter conflict commenced this time a decade ago. So much was lost, and yet, so much wisdom was also gained. And you STILL won't get a reply from your crush.

Social contagion is real: this pervasive belief that casual bigotry of a certain flavour is acceptable. It's still bigotry, no matter who it is directed at. 🤷🏻 Mentioning the paradox of intolerance is lip service when you commit to the very act you loudly proclaim to be against.

Humpset Noun. You're angry on a Wednesday.

Being boring is viewed as a worse crime than being an ontologically awful human being.

My love language is reading vampire smut to you while we have a lazy day in bed.

This was the coolest possible thing to say

If you're quick to react emotionally, you're handing over the reins of your behavior to whoever knows how to push your buttons.

When the world is saved it will be because of her

@_bibijoux I'll just be cooking and hope the smell attracts a mate to my kitchen. Nothing sinister about that.
