Everybody who lived in Seattle's U District knew frat bros were trouble. I carried a mattock handle everywhere I went for a reason

Somebody whistled from the guest room after midnight. We had no guests. Around that time a wicker chest in my office was mysteriously slid across the floor and left wide open. No one was around to do that either.

Funny to realize that if Jack Smith had decided to indict Biden on something, the SC would've said, Hell yeah! and presidential immunity wouldn't be a thing oday

You can't have zero tolerance policies for generations of school kids then clutch your pearls when they don't heroically leap to defend strangers as men.

I'm currently working my way through the 600+ page graphic novel Uzumaki by Junji Ito. And it's brilliant

Cover of Uzumaki by Junji Ito, black and gray people watching a character with black and gray spiral hair that is out of control. The only color on the cover is a harsh red spiral behind the title, so harsh you can almost hear it.

Creepy AF page from Uzumaki by Junji Ito, a character is being taken over by an all-encompassing, living spiral. Spoiler, the spiral totally eats her.

I worked in a factory years ago. Hundreds and hundreds of employees over time... Immigrants, as a group, were the most honest, reliable, hard working people to come through those doors. Fuck Trump. Fuck Miller. Fuck Musk.

Plenty to hit the GOP on without crowing about the "elder abuse" of Mitch M. The Dems were quite pleased to play Weekend at Bernie's with Feinstein.

If you want to know what would happen during an alien invasion, look no further than what happens to a wasp nest when the exterminator shows up. Those wasps never knew their killer was there.
