Michaela!

Who among us has not mistaken the holy words of Quentin Tarantino's Pulp Fiction for biblical scripture?

@carlajamn Is this from the vault? 🤣🤣🤣

Omg Travis 💀💀

Promoting your project? Mention Taylor. Trying to seem edgy? Mention Taylor. Seeking attention for your issue? Mention Taylor. Doesn’t anyone have any other mktg and promotional skills, bc it’s getting old. (Insert any and all topics from yesterday and today).

I love Kam 😂

Amazon MGM announced that Project Hail Mary will get an extended theatrical run, delaying its release on Prime Video. After strong box office performance, the film is staying in theaters longer, giving audiences more time to experience it on the big screen.

One week until the Draft ✌️

Life is way too short to hold grudges.

Your tattoo ink doesn't stay in your skin. It breaks apart and travels through your body to your lymph nodes, where it settles for life. And in the US, nobody has ever tested what's actually in it. Lund University in Sweden studied 5,695 people for this one. They controlled for sun exposure, tanning beds, skin type, smoking, income. After stripping out all those variables, people with tattoos still had a 29% higher risk of melanoma, the deadliest form of skin cancer. Mixed black and colored ink pushed that number to 38%. People who'd had their tattoos for 10 to 15 years had 67% higher risk. Only 30% of the melanomas showed up where the tattoo actually was. The other 70% appeared on completely different parts of the body. The ink is traveling through the body, doing damage far from where it was injected. Your immune system is the reason. It treats tattoo ink like an invader. White blood cells swallow the particles and try to drag them to your lymph nodes (small filters spread throughout your body that help fight infections). But the particles never leave. They just sit there. A research team in France used X-ray imaging on donated human bodies and confirmed tattoo pigments stay lodged in the lymph nodes permanently. A separate 2025 study then found this causes inflammation in the lymph nodes for months, and it actually weakened the body's response to COVID vaccines. Black tattoo ink is loaded with the same compounds found in coal tar and cigarette smoke. The World Health Organization classifies these as cancer-causing. Colored inks use pigments that break down into different cancer-causing compounds when they get hit by sunlight or during laser tattoo removal. Arsenic, cadmium, lead, and chromium show up across almost every ink color. The EU saw the data and in January 2022 restricted over 4,000 chemicals in tattoo ink across all 27 member states. The FDA has the authority to do the same thing. They have never used it. No tattoo ink sold in America has ever been FDA-approved for injection into human skin. The only guidance the agency has issued was in 2024, and it covered bacteria in ink bottles, not the cancer-causing chemicals in the ink itself. 82 million Americans have at least one tattoo, roughly 1 in 3 adults. Every one of them has permanent, untested chemical deposits sitting in their lymph nodes right now. The EU already decided those chemicals were too dangerous to leave on the market.

Annie's was bought out like a decade ago by General Mills. They have slowly replaced their ingredients like milk and butter with cornstarch and lactic acid (which was also a drop in protein and calcium). Rao's was bought out recently, we should expect their quality to drop too.

Catholic Charities is the biggest provider of social welfare to veterans in the United States of America.

Why Don Lemon is skipping the White House Correspondents’ Dinner “I’m not interested in dressing up in a tuxedo, sipping champagne, and pretending everything is normal with a president and a regime that spends every day attacking, undermining, and trying to discredit journalists and journalism.”

“The Trump administration has abruptly canceled an $11 million contract with Catholic Charities to shelter and care for migrant children who enter the U.S. alone…” miamiherald.com/news/local/imm…

I always find it so laughable whenever people deride the quality of Taylor's songwriting just because she happens to write pop. As if lines like "I stare directly at the sun but never in the mirror" couldn't have just as easily been lifted out of a classic novel

There are too many emails. Too many texts. Too many accounts. Too many logins. Too many apps. Too many rewards programs. Too many fundraisers. Too many appointments. Too many virtual meetings. Too many newsletters. Too many forms. Too many social media platforms. My brain hurts.

This is what Andy Reid said about Josh Simmons more than 2 weeks ago: “He’s good to go. He’s doing everything & moving around [well]. We’ve got high hopes for [him & Kingsley]. Josh has just got to keep growing as a player, as a pro. Talent wise, he’s tremendous.”

If you paid even a penny in federal income tax last year, you paid more than: Tesla Southwest Disney Live Nation HP United PayPal CVS Health Palantir Citigroup PG&E 3M That's right. They paid $0 in federal income tax. It's time for big corporations to pay their fair share.

I do *not* want an AI "summary" of an email, or a book, or a life. I do not want an AI summary of a winter sky, or my father's hands, or the hope in my child's eyes. I do not want an AI summary of the human heart, or the first little shiver of lust, or the long good work of love.

Society is ugly. The world is beautiful. Don’t confuse the two.
