Spoiler alert: Bad Monkey

Is it just me, or does it feel like they spent the first half of the series establishing 10 different plot lines only to basically abandon all of them in the most anti-climactic, least satisfying way possible?

Also, I kept waiting for Owen Wilson to show up.

Roughly two weeks ago, my wife and I welcomed our first child into our family. We’re so excited that he’s finally here! Even if it does mean very little sleep…

Here is a photo! I’ve redacted some parts for his privacy, though.

A photo of my two-week-old son being very cute. The photo is purposefully grainy and dark and it’s very difficult to see anything.

Perhaps Biden’s full-throated declaration of support for the Israeli government and their right to further escalate violence in the Middle East wasn’t a good idea?

I’m seeing a number of people saying that Vance is the better debater, but I think that’s the wrong takeaway. It’s easy to debate when you don’t feel constrained by the facts or the moderator’s questions.

The entirety of the GOP debate strategy seems to be: lie through your teeth, goad your opponent into showing how much they know about the issues, and then scoffing and saying “get a load of THAT nerd!”😂

Whack-a-mole seems like a great description of the job Walz has to do during this debate. Only the mole is Vance.

Vance seems to have a fundamental misunderstanding of what power the Vice President has. Or more likely, he understands it and just likes making shit up.

I love how it’s undocumented immigrants who are taking American jobs and not businesses who are exploiting desperate people to pay lower wages.

If you have to keep saying “this job isn’t for everyone”, perhaps what you should be saying is “this job shouldn’t be for anyone”.

What do I bring to my marriage? I’m the one who can confidently and consistently draw an ampersand, an underrated skill.

I just realized that I've been singing to myself "Master of the house, keeper of the keys" for as long as I can remember, as if Hagrid is teaming up with Jean Valjean to storm the Bastille. 😂 #LesMiserables

The discourse around Harris’ racial identity is 100% driven by racism, but it is also a familiar struggle for biracial folks.

Feeling or being told that you’re not pure enough to be of one race or the other. Feeling like you’re appropriating your own culture and heritage.

It’s tough.

@murdoc This reminds me of one time I was having bad seasonal allergies about 10 years ago and I went out to an Indian restaurant with my team and ordered Chicken Korma, which I love. But that time, it tasted like chicken in a curry made out of American cheese. It was one of the worst things I’ve put in my mouth.

But others tasted it and it tasted normal to them. So it was just my taste buds.

@VulcanTourist I’m a super-taster too. It feels like the world's worst superpower. But I wonder if the amount our moods affect our taste buds varies from person to person.
