you will never, in your entire life, make as much money as the people who are incapable of coming up with ideas like "Miss Piggy flirts with Ryan Gosling" or "Pedro Pascal tries not to laugh at Fozzy's dumb jokes" make in a year

I know a lot of people have stopped paying attention to labubus which is fine but there is an important update: the newest ones have hair for some reason and look like hardworking divorced mothers from the 90s.

I love this detail about 'It Takes Two': “The 1988 tune remains the single greatest use of a looped drum break in rap history,” the magazine [Rolling Stone] wrote in 2018. It called it 'the hip-hop equivalent' to the guitar solo in “Stairway to Heaven.” www.nytimes.com/2026/05/22/a...

Joyce Carol Oates
@Joyce... 17h O
So curious that such a wealthy man never posts anything that indicates that he enjoys or is even aware of what virtually everyone appreciates— scenes from nature, pet dog or cat, praise for a movie, music, a book (but doubt that he reads); pride in a friend's or relative's accomplishment; condolences for someone who has died; pleasure in sports, acclaim for a favorite team; references to history. In fact he seems totally uneducated, uncultured. The poorest persons on Twitter may have access to more beauty & meaning in life than the

Oates is a liar and delights in being mean.

Zohran winning is THRILLING. Bring back being able to afford NYC as a working class person. Bring back being able to be an artist without a trustfund. We lost our city to billionaires + thats not NYC. NYC is poor people, queer people, immigrants, its underdogs + weirdos + that's what makes it great.
