Today was apparently the day for all the parents in Clintonville to bring their loud, angry children to the bookstore.

This situation isn't (necessarily) funny, but responding to the backlash with "Sorry I #fakedmydeath this #weekend But it had to be done," is hilarious, I'm sorry. Anyway "Slayer" and "This Isn't It" are all-time bangers. Hope she gets her shit together.

Wild to see so many people talking about how hot Josh Homme looks here. He looks like a corpse. He looks like Lurch.

A few years ago I went to Atlanta for a week and came back and was depressed for like months afterwards, and I can just feel that's how it's gonna be now that I'm back from this Chicago trip.

Conscious me: "why am I so anxious lately?" Subconscious me: "you took 4 days off a month ago and it has ruined you financially ever since, and you're about to take a whole week off, and the idea that you're dependent on your partner's salary makes your skin crawl" Conscious me: "oh yeah, that"

We've lost the plot entirely on what constitutes a "dad bod". Who's dad? Who's dad looks like that? If you have any abdominal muscle definition whatsoever you do not have a "dad bod".

This song came up on shuffle the other day and it kind of took me back, because what do you mean Santigold wrote "while we sleep in America our house is burning down" 2012???

What other country has abandoned so much of its transportation infrastructure? A century ago, Columbus had eight regional interurban rail lines. Ohio is full of unused and underused rail lines – and others that have been removed, bulldozing our past to spite our future. New from Brian Williams.

On Development: Rapid-transit is moving slowly. Maybe we need a new model – Matter News

Our policies suggest a willingness to spend any amount to add lanes and bigger (towering!) interchanges for major highways, while transit spending is too often regarded as frivolous.

It's a real shame that not one but two people at the burlesque competition tonight had prepared a number based around "Dear Mr. President" on this, the day P!nk decided she's a Zionist.

There's a 4-year-old humming "Seven Nation Army" in the store right now if for some reason it's making me feel ancient.

Drag Race UK season 8 premiered this week and the first episode was... perfectly fine! So that's already an improvement on season 7.

I do think “every rich person went insane during covid because it was the first time they’ve been inconvenienced in decades” felt a little reductive at first but damn if isn’t more and more compelling as the years drag on

Every city has two things: a guy on Nextdoor yelling that flock is a good thing you shouldn’t worry about if you’re not a criminal and a cop who just got placed on leave with pay for tracking the every movement of his ex-girlfriend from high school

I know this season of Drag Race UK is going to be good, because the cast's confessional looks just dropped and none of them are cute.

Last night a drag queen accused me of being a top via a (really superb) lipsync of Kelly's "Let's Get Some Shoes" I prefer the term "retired bottom", ma'am.

I really feel for genuine, good-hearted people who care about sports, because the world of sports (on a professional, collegiate, and even high school level) seems really fucking evil.

The 24-year-old that sends me gay memes every day has been MIA from Insta for a week. In the meantime we had a tornado in Columbus so of course I assumed he was dead. He finally got in touch and was like "Oh sorry I just deleted Insta from my phone". Love it when things take a turn for the mundane.

Sometimes you feel like you're going crazy, so you call up your friend who is the most similar version of crazy to you, and you spill your guts and she says "No girl, you're perfectly sane"
