Happy birthday, big guy! Don't forget to leave trains and nuclear reactors out for him, or he'll stomp your house! #godzilla

I’m at the point in my #TNG rewatch where Data learns about humor from Joe Piscopo, even though Whoopi Goldberg is RIGHT THERE. It’s the TNG riff on a Harry Mudd episode, “The Outrageous Okona.” You’ll also spot Teri Hatcher as Chief B. G. Robinson, Transporter Operator.

Nathan Fielder: Do you understand why that’s funny? Elizabeth: Because he's pretending he doesn't know Jeffery Epistien for anything but being a New York financier. Billy: I’m really glad you’re showing her this.

Has anyone thought to ask Ramaswamy if he disavows the ad?

I KNEW we couldn’t trust Ultron. I mean, of course we couldn’t, he’s friggin Ultron, but this was quite the epic betrayal. Do we have to wait another week? #Visionquest

He's not sending anyone anything, and Trump is not giving everyone $5k if the GOP wins the midterms. FFS, people are so goddamn stupid; no wonder measles are back.
Extraordinary offer. Don't be so cynical as to dismiss it.

Hi, I’m Leslie, Ricardo Gonzalez’s daughter. I’m sharing this because there are videos about what happened to my dad, who was struck by an unmarked vehicle of federal agents while riding his E-Bike on October 17, 2026. He was tased twice, pinned to the ground, and taken to the hospital for serious injuries. He’s receiving treatment now, and our family is raising money for his hospital bills and recovery. Thank you to everyone who has already shared and supported us, and if you have questions, you can message me directly. If you’re able, please donate or share Ricardo’s GoFundMe page so we can help him focus on recovery. My Dad is one of the hardest-working men out there. Because of him, I have a roof over my head, and I have all the opportunities around me. Our family is everything because of him. We ask for your support and prayers during this awful time. What ICE did was not right, and we are asking for even just a share of this repost to spread the word and raise awareness. Please share this around with family and friends!

Is this the greatness you were promised?
ICE run over U.S. citizen riding his bike—break his arm. Agents handcuff him behind his back without calling paramedics. They inflict even more injuries—send him to the hospital in serious condition. Then agents detain another U.S. citizen—for yelling at them on the sidewalk. Man with the broken arm's daughter says he was hit on his e-bike by an unmarked car. He was then tased twice and pinned to the ground—currently receiving treatment at the hospital. Multiple ICE vehicles were running through stop signs—speeding the wrong way down one-way streets. All on a weekend afternoon with kids playing outside. Incident occurred near the intersection of East 56th Street & Elm Avenue in Long Beach, California. Stop ICE Net doesn't have an account on this platform—so posting first full length, English translated, and credited video here to help raise awareness.

I just realized that during the “Who’s on First” scene, Elizabeth says “I don't know” multiple times, and Nathan never explains to her that he's actually on third base. #youcanseeeverything
