@AntiWokeMemes Is she justified?

@itsqail It’s not a boomer complaint. It’s a common sense complaint.

All these new headlights are TOO fucking bright

@POTUS That’s our money you spent.

The 55,000 public servants approved for debt cancellation today are workers who have dedicated their lives to giving back to their communities. Now, they are finally earning the relief they are entitled to under the law.

Quick story about govt. shutdowns and the theatrics behind them. One year when I was reporting at CBS News during a govt. shutdown, I think 2013, we were sincerely searching for real life impact. When we couldn't find any, *that* should have been part of the story. Instead, we kept trying to create the appearance of an impact. It wasn't really trying to be dishonest. It was, in my retrospective view, because the general editorial idea for the story was to show how bad the "Republican" shutdown was for ordinary Americans, and the answer simply couldn't be that it wasn't. I've written quite a bit about this but we, as journalists, too often "decide" the story in advance and shape the facts to fit our narrative, rather than gathering information and letting that tell the story, whatever it may be. Anyway, the Ds were blaming Rs for the shutdown, so we were calling Ds and the Obama administration for ideas to report what was the real impact. Taking our cue, these officials fabricated impact that we could report. For example, they cordoned off outdoor public monuments in Washington DC. We knew and even discussed in the newsroom that this made no sense. These monuments weren't "manned" to begin with. The only reason to cordon them off from the public was so that visiting tourists would see the "impact" of the shutdowns and the news media would have something to take pictures of and interview people about. There are other examples but this is the one I remember the most.

This is an actual member of Congress

Funny

It’s so dumb how many payments take several days to clear. Yeah if I send you money now you’ll be able to access it in 3-5 days. What century is it?

@AntiLeftMemes Is this really freedom?

@AntiLeftMemes Dog done got fed up

@Matt_Pinner Just one. I got into a terrible tractor accident. None of my animals lost any limbs.

How many legs do you have? Let's see the smart ones

@Austen I got 800 on my math SAT, and this worksheet seems completely incoherent and inscrutable to me. Addition and subtraction don’t need to be complicated. Just count up or down. And eventually memorize.

(From 6-year-old’s math worksheet) I’m not at all convinced this is a better way to teach kids to do math 😂

@absolutelyamyyy My parents never took me or my sister to restaurants until we were old enough not to be a nuisance.

What does everyone think about this?
