This is why you don’t kneel for the national anthem.

The greatest one hit wonder, in the history of humanity, was released on this day, 41 years ago. Yes, you are that old. You're welcome America

I would rather walk across a carpet made out of Legos than go to my high school reunion.

THIS IS A PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT . Speaker phone is for when you are ALONE or have ear buds in. NOT in an airport waiting area. NOT in a restaurant . NOT on a train. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

I understand why horses kick people.

Flying into ORD is a huge test of how patient you are bc that taxi to the gate is no joke

@JDunlap1974 What an odd thing to make a video about.

Caroline Kennedy : “We grew up together. It’s no surprise that he keeps birds of prey as pets because Bobby himself is a predator. He enjoyed showing off by putting baby chickens & mice in a blender to feed to his hawks.” Thoughts?

People who go to the cinema alone or eat alone have unlocked a level of peace most people are too uncomfortable to reach.

@Pontifex None of this is from the Bible. This is political commentary.

In a world wounded by arrogance, people hunger and thirst for justice. We must encourage those who believe in peace and dare to engage in “countercurrent” politics, which focus on the common good. What is urgently needed is the courage of new visions and an educational pact that gives young people space and trust. #ApostolicJourney #EquatorialGuinea vatican.va/content/leo-xi…

I don’t care how strong I get… Bulgarian split squats will always be 3 sets of 8 😭

Antiques Roadshow is appraising Pearl Jam concert posters so it is time for me to make a reservation at the graveyard

I miss the 80's, when we were all like, "I mean we already knew you were gay" and then everybody just went about their business

@WillTheRealDeal Not anymore.

Do you think the pope is the earthly representative of Christ?

@EricLDaugh Can you say ... backpedal ... misstep ... Obama fingerprints all over this?

🚨 UPDATE: Pope Leo says he is NOT debating President Trump or getting involved in the political arena "It was looked at as if I was trying to debate again the president, which is NOT my interest at all." "Because of the political situation created when on the first day of the trip, President of the United States made some comments about myself." "Much of what has been written since then has been more commentary and commentary trying to interpret what has been said." "Just one little example, the talk that I gave at the prayer meeting for peace a couple days ago was prepared two weeks ago, well before the president had ever commented on myself and on the message of peace that I am promoting."

They should change the name to "Strait of Schrödinger". It's both open and closed at the same time.

Police say a 28-year-old California man allegedly bought expensive LEGO sets, kept the pieces and returned the boxes filled with dry pasta. Authorities say the scheme was repeated about 70 times nationwide before he was caught.

@JamesMartinSJ Respectfully, sir, I'm Catholic and I have a very strong response to the pope's comments.

Dear friends: I don’t know any Catholic in the United States, from the most traditional to the most progressive, who does not have strong feelings about the comments from President Trump and Vice President Vance about Pope Leo XIV. These include not only President Trump’s initial disrespectful Truth Social post about the Holy Father, but also Vice President Vance’s similarly disrespectful comments about Pope Leo having to be “careful” when he speaks about theology. Let me share some of my own feelings. First of all, it is shocking that a President and Vice President would treat such a good, holy and learned man with such disdain. Imagine telling a man with the Holy Father’s learning and experience (and authority) that he doesn’t understand theology sufficiently. What’s more, imagine attacking him as, ridiculously, “weak on crime” or somehow not understanding foreign policy. Second, I’m edified by Pope Leo’s charitable and courageous response to all this. Charitable because he has not responded in any way other than with charity and respect. As some of you may know, I know the Holy Father slightly, thanks to our being seated together at the Synod for two weeks, and know him to be a kind, reserved, discerning and highly intelligent person. In a word, holy. But courageous too: as we have seen during his time in Algeria and Cameroon, Pope Leo has not shied away from continuing to preach the Gospel, and speaking out in favor of peace (and yes, he understands St. Augustine’s concept of the “just war”) and against, as he said today, tyrants and those who would use God’s name to support violence of bloodshed. So, where will this all end? It’s hard to say. But I would imagine that now that the taboo has been broken, politicians will continue to denigrate him and thus try to persuade people, without saying it explicitly, to think that the Pope’s words do not need to be listened to. But this will be in vain for two reasons. First, Pope Leo is clearly fearless. A few hours after he was elected as pope, I spoke with a fellow Augustinian priest who had known “Bob” for decades. “He’s a great listener, very kind and much loved.” Then he paused. “But he’s no pushover.” But the main reason that the Pope’s words will be heard is less about Robert Prevost’s own many virtues but something else: the Vicar of Christ will be heard because he is preaching the Gospel. As Jesus told his disciples, “Heaven and earth may pass away, but my words will never pass away.” So, in these strange times, fear not.

There was a time in the 90s when we put French dressing and blue cheese dressing on the same salad and mixed it all together. We were badass like that.

@RealRawNews1 Is that why Tammy Baldwin never responds to the constituents who contact her office? She's too busy talking to the pope?

No one can fault a Pope for wanting peace, but why has Pope Leo been talking daily to AOC, Hakeem Jeffries, Catherine Clark, Jasmine Crockett, and Demorat senators Chris Coons, Cory Booker, Tamy Baldwin, Christopher Murphy, Richard Durbin, and Amy Klobucher......VERY IRREGULAR AND SUSPICOUS.

@joelange Been waiting a VERY long time for this.

Obama targeted. Sending his lackey Axelrod to convince the Pope to criticize everything Trump is doing, was a blunder. Now Trump gets to expose both the corruption in the hierarchy of the Catholic Church and Obama at the SAME TIME. Tick Tock!
