@JoseHernandezDz She is so much fun! I just delight in her work. Also, I didn’t know about this collection. Thanks!!

@just2goodYT This dude is why morgues prefer to hire women.

bro thinks a couple of plastic bricks are a “real woman” and “real femininity” I’m dying 😭

@NoMa1arkey @Serenity42062 @LqLana Men like him are why morgues prefer to hire women.

@Serenity42062 @LqLana This is how Dante gets women to interact with him. It's the only way.

“When you’re Black there’s always someone watching you.” That statement hit home. It’s a fact. I’ve always known that since I was a child. Going to stores. Going to certain neighborhoods. At the beach… A Black woman minding her business and having fun is interrupted by a Karen. At the end, Karen plays the victim, per usual. #DemsUnited

@jemelehill I feel like In-N-Out is to LA as Waffle House is to the South.

Because I see some people in the comments are getting persnickety … It’s tradition for actors to go to In-N-Out after the Oscars. Jamie Lee Curtis did it. Ang Lee did it. Vanity Fair actually serves In-N-Out at their Oscars party. Hell, I had an In-N-Out food truck at my wedding. It’s just an LA thing.

@ceal_gichohi @nickimoraa Socks don’t match but tweets do.

@nickimoraa When the fyp is fyping

My assistant at work has autism and he checks my socks every day to make sure the colours match. When they don’t, he shakes his head, lets out a big sigh, and looks at me like I’m a huge disappointment. Then he tells me I make his life difficult. For my birthday, he bought me matching socks.

@kristenrudd When my Milton class hit book 9 of Paradise Lost, I got to class early and left an apple where my professor sat.

One of my students is trolling me by writing parts of his current essay in the style of Dickens. His essay is on Treasure Island. He knows I am not a fan of Dickens. Full marks.

@adrianslatcher @natallman This is from the first poem I ever memorized.

@natallman Man hands on misery to man. It deepens like a coastal shelf

Line of a poem you wish you’d written?

@natallman @susanlleary The night smoothes out its black tarp/ tacks it to the sky with stars. Ron Rash.

@MarkOliverio @Iamivy05 QUIT ENGAGING WITH THE BOT.

Jill Biden ruined it for you ladies in recent times. She paraded her "Dr." title like she was a leading neuro-surgeon. It's probably why he asked, "Medical Doctor?" Because you might be another Jill Biden and when someone asks for a Doctor in a medical emergency, you'll state you're a doctor and then go, "Oh, like to help them? Oh no, sorry, I can help them with their punctuation, that's about it."

one of my fears happened today. they called for a doctor as we were boarding the plane. so i run down the jet bridge. agent: mam you can’t come in here. me: they called for a doctor different agent: are you a nurse? me: no, i’m a doctor agent: a medical doctor? me: 😑 YES, a family medicine doctor. i've been to medical school, did 3 years of residency, a year of fellowship, practicing for the past 6 years, and i'm board certified. i'm more qualified than the surgeon general. 💅🏼

@dalepartridge What brand eyeball-gouger do you recommend?

Ladies, leggings are not pants. They are underwear. You wear them in public so men will look at you because you’re insecure. Stop it. Read your Bible, turn to Christ, be modest and virtuous.

@William20272256 @KerryMSoileau @hell_line0 The dynamics would be entirely different. While physical violence between women isn’t unheard of, it’s certainly much more rare than a woman experiencing violence from a man. I’m 6’ 2”, 265 lbs, built like a refrigerator. Much less worried about women than men, physically.

@SomeSweetVandal @KerryMSoileau @hell_line0 The person who was being a nuisance, would the dynamics be different if it was a woman being a nuisance to a woman or do you only care if it's a man?

A man sat down across from a woman on the train I’m on and started aggressively trying to talk to her. She’s staring out the window not acknowledging him. Another man walked over and said “she don’t wanna talk, bro. Look at her body language, leave her alone” and the talking guy said “my bad” and left. THIS IS WHAT MEN SHOULD BE DOING WHEN THEY SEE FELLOW MEN BEING CREEPS TOWARD WOMEN. Big props to that guy for intervening. He didn’t have to, but he did it anyway.

@William20272256 @KerryMSoileau @hell_line0 Protect them from whom?

@hell_line0 So these strong independent women still need a man to protect them? Seems a bit odd that someone wants equality only when it's convenient.

@realCoreyEngel @KristofferJos @TeamTalaricoHQ @jamestalarico Typical Trumpanzee. Say something inflammatory, get presented with proof refuting it, bail.

.@JamesTalarico: Can you name a school where it has been confirmed that students are using litter boxes? Republican: W-well… This bill prevents that from happening Talarico: Can you name a school where that’s happening? Republican: N-no I cannot Talarico: I find it concerning that these types of debunked conspiracy theories are being used by politicians at the highest levels of our government who know that they're incorrect. This whole thing is just weird and honestly a little creepy, and I think that's the point because this is all, in my opinion, a manufactured, debunked smear campaign against our Texas public schools. These culture war attacks are nothing more than an effort to discredit our public schools to justify defunding those public schools. Texas librarians are not grooming kids, Texas teachers are not indoctrinating kids, and Texas schools are not providing litter boxes. And I think the most disappointing part about all this is that I think you know that.

@realCoreyEngel @KristofferJos @TeamTalaricoHQ @jamestalarico I cannot believe this is how my first Grok usage is going down, but @grok , is there any proof that any school in America has ever provided litter boxes for students claiming to be cats?

@ohjakeshere @covie_93 SAME!!!! I think it’s the only way to, honestly.

@covie_93 I read this in Stefan's voice.

This photo has EVERYTHING: Drunks, psychos, ex-WWE boss, puppy killer, Jeffery Epstein's pals, a representive from the Kremlin, people who snort cocaine off of toilet seats, sexual predators, sober rapists, drunk rapists, a whoville tax accountant and pedophile protectors.

@tanyenow @TalbertSwan @MSNCMan77 THIS.

@TalbertSwan @MSNCMan77 No he consumes and mimics black culture. Not the same as love.

Another voicemail. Another triggered, Trump supporting white man.  Frank Sciacca (facebook.com/frank.sciacca.…), an Italian man from Brooklyn now living in Florida, called my church in a profanity-laced rage because I condemned Trump’s racist depiction of President Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama as apes. His response? Calling me a “dumb f***ing monkey.” Forty-six years old. Listens to hip-hop. Claims to have Black friends. Probably says “I can’t be racist, I love Black culture.” Yet the moment a Black man calls out racism, he reaches for the oldest racist slur in the book. That blows up the entire myth: Liking Black music doesn’t make you anti-racist. Having Black friends doesn’t cleanse a racist mouth. Consuming Black culture is not the same as respecting Black people. And calling a Black church to leave a vulgar, hate-filled message at 46 years old isn’t strength, it’s immaturity and a sick obsession. If your political loyalty has you defending racism by practicing racism, you are the problem. Triggered, fragile, and proving the point.

@ihateurocky I’m gonna regret this…

leave a comment and ill rate your pfp (doing everyone)

@aliciaandrz You misspelled “zillions.”

luckily when you’re a Shakespeare prof you make millions of dollars, as it should be.

@DNicholsAuthor Thinking that first drafts are the only drafts.

Hey, fellow writers... If you were teaching a creative writing class and a student asked what the number one most important mistake to avoid would be if you want to become successful, what would you say? #WritingCommunity #writer #writingq

@Big_Silly_G00se @RandalRauser Thank God he’s the only one to do this to Leviticus.

He's quoting Leviticus which has stringent laws created to purify or set apart the Jews from their neighboring cultures. I repeat, to keep them pure from outside culture. If you cherry pick Leviticus you can get some wild quotes- but he knows that he is taking that verse out of context.

The MAGA cult is now calling John Piper "woke".
