I hope that guy is okay, but this is why Clueless taught us not to do any activities where balls fly at your nose.

Outrageous! The Hon. John Yates passed over for an Emmy yet again! The academy states that “Lovers’ Vows” is ineligible for submission as it’s a foreign production, is a play, was never staged, and was 117 years before the invention of television.

I'm sorry, but you cannot convince me that Harry Kane isn't an uptight duke in a period piece, whom the lead cheats on with the local blacksmith.

Harry Kane looking very aristocratic (questionable) in his England kit.

Reese Witherspoon is right; it’s time to learn A.I. (The Age of Innocence).

Benito is a threat b/c he makes art so alluring and enjoyable you want to understand everything about it and then you end up learning about sugar and slavery and colonialism and the Taínos and Hawaii and then you probably have some thoughts of your own, and that's why art is powerful and dangerous

Minnesotans are really setting the blueprint for fighting fascism. They are being shot dead in the street and still they come out to protect their people. They continue to document, to alert neighbors, to buy and drop off groceries. Everyday. May we all be so brave

It is a truth universally acknowledged that ICE are a bunch of goose-stepping cowardly little bitches.
