The fact that the dip comes close to *2020* is kinda incredible! Especially considering there was a World Cup in the US this year!

The image is of a four panel comic.
The first panel shows Sarah, the protagonist, holding a red ball labeled "A SILLY MEME".
The second panel shows Sarah taking the ball and going through a door labeled "GROUP CHAT".
The third panel shows a group of women sitting together and consoling one woman in the center. The woman in the center is saying "...And that's how it happened. It's been the worst day of my life."
The fourth panel shows Sarah standing in the doorway behind them awkwardly holding the red ball.

Every reply on this post is wack. Y'all expecting restaurant quality and salty that it's not "quick and easy" as a result when you can just lightly chop whatever's in your fridge and bung it all into a pan with some sauce and as long as it's edible that's good enough. I'm Asian so I can certify it

An mRNA treatment for PANCREATIC CANCER was in trials, among many other uses. Choosing to end this research is choosing to sentence millions to an early, painful death

Man, when I secretly wished we could return to the 90s just a little, I did not anticipate the monkey's paw curling to point to "having to live your life with the vague fear of nuclear annihilation in the background at all times"

Oh, wow. So many other worlds visible in the background of the Artemis II view from eclipse, peeking out of the haze of the solar corona. Thanks @tunctezel.bsky.social for labeling!

The Department of State tweets a video of Secretary Marco Rubio. In the video, Rubio says: "Imagine if instead of spending billions of dollars supporting terrorists or weapons, Iran had spent that money helping the people of Iran. They would have a much different country."FactPost News tweets a video of Donald Trump speaking at a podium. In the video he says: "We can't take care of daycare. We're a big country. We're fighting wars. It's not possible for us to take care of daycare, Medicaid, Medicare, all these things."

they’re abducting our neighbors and putting them in concentration camps and they’ll empty a whole goddamn magazine into you while you’re lying on the ground if you don’t cheer them on while they’re fucking doing it.

AltNPS posted about Alex Pretti's murder 25 times since this morning. During that time, they spread misinformation about the shooting, lied about knowing the shooter's name, and generally flooded the zone with shit. They're trying to milk this story for all it's worth.
Alt National Park Service: There's something happening here
What it is ain't exactly clear
There's a man with a gun over there
A-telling me I got to beware
I think it's time we stop
Children, what's that sound?
Everybody look what's going down

Being a person with deadly, incurable cancer who is nonetheless still alive for an indefinite timeframe gives me an interesting metaphor that helps me deal with things like large-scale corruption in government or commerce. Bear with me for a second while I try to explain.

At #magfest attempting to watch the panel "The importance of girls' games and media" and man it was not a good idea for the con to not give this presentation an actual panel room, attendees are spilling out into the hall
Panel attendees sitting on the floor spilling out through the doors into the hallway. The presenter is in the middle of a small room.

I really thought that second bathroom was it, and then it took a moment for me to realize the third bathroom was, in fact, a bathroom. It took the picture of the toilet before I realized....
