Still trying to decide on cat names for our kittens when my wife stumbled upon this gem online:

I say this all the time, but I keep finding myself hunched over the computer anyway.

It's such a great punchline too! It's such a shame.

I told a guy I used to work with that other countries don’t have credit scores, and he said, β€œThat’s why they give you a Visa when you come here!” But instead of being a joke, he meant it one hundred percent seriously. Dumbest guy I’ve ever met.

It’s so depressing. Honestly, I feel like some students will use this because I teach Gatsby every semester in university, and when I ask students to sum up Nick’s father’s advice, they act like the words are incomprehensible. I always simplify it to β€œcheck your privilege.”

I love that they use Gatsby as an example of a "hard" book like it's fucking Finnegans Wake.

when you’re arguing about politics here on bluesky just remember there’s a young sheldon spinoff called george and mandy’s first marriage that’s watched by millions of people

"i will slurp down swastikas all day but do not let me see one boob" is an excellent filter for awful people. i, for one, hate nazis and love boobs, and i'm brave enough to say it

About to have THE CALL with a literary agent. Playing the Mortal Kombat theme on full blast for the next hour to get in the right headspace.

I’d be down for it. I generally prefer video interviews as I like to see the person. If I like the author’s personality and their taste in books, I’m much more likely to pick up their book.

the dumbest form of politics is yelling at voters after you lose. if you lose it is *always* your fault. every confounding factor in the universe is your job to overcome. if you take a position that is unpopular and don't adjust to learning that, you are bad at running for office.

I’m bothered by this billboard because I think this company wants people to fuck their storage units.

I have used that film to scar so many of friends. I may not have them anymore, but I do I have the blu-ray from Criterion.

You gotta hand it to Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris: they were the only two people who predicted that Donald Trump would be bad

Remember when they made a JOKER movie and Entertainment Weekly refused to assign a letter grade to it because they thought the film was too dangerous and irresponsible

Even guys I got my MFA with don’t read anymore. My bros are not well and getting dumber by the day.

I worked with Nick when I was in grad school. He knows what he’s talking about.

I need this. I’m just imagining it being full of lines like β€œthe thong had become a unit of currencyβ€œ and β€œthe president is in town. The puck speaks in quarter inches.β€œ

If I ever query you in the future, you can reject my dogshit, and I’ll be sure to say something nice so you don’t have to associate a getting reply with fear.
