Apparently the lady getting arrested is also an anti-vaxxer of note so there’s quite a bit to unpack with her, including her child’s things in a more responsible person’s home. Also worth noting is her use of the libertarian anthem “AM I BEING DETAINED, SIR, AM I BEING DETAINED” which, as someone who is not a fan of the police and their misuse of force and authority, should really get you an automatic taser-ing. This also spawned a great follow-up tweet from the thread’s author. The whole incident has in turn mobilized the literal worst and dumbest pieces of shit around to support this uber-Karen, as folks like Alex Jones are now rallying to her side and I’d really have to throw up that Larry David gif if I heard that one of these support demonstrations got hit with a drone strike or something.

Watch This: HONEYLAND - available via Hulu

Directed by Tamara Kotevska and Ljubomir Stefanov, HONEYLAND was nominated (AND ROBBED DAMMIT) for the Best Feature Documentary Oscar this past year. It follows Hatidže Muratova, a beekeeper in remote Macedonia, as she goes about her daily life, hiking all over to harvest honey while also caring for her declining mother. During the film, their lives are upended by the arrival of another family to the area, and it follows the ebbs and flows of their dynamic, as she gets the family interested in beekeeping only to be shocked at their disregard for old, proven methods, as well as their disrespect for the bees.

  • More wholesome Animal Crossing content today, as someone had actor Elijah Wood unexpectedly pay a visit to their island to take advantage of sweet, sweet turnip profits. I’m curious if other celebrities play the game a little more anonymously, because any doubts I had about it were immediately wiped away with one look at Wood’s character there’s no way that’s not him.

  • Imagine a world where the Insane Clown Posse cares more about their fans than Joe Biden actually wait you don’t have to imagine it. To be fair I can’t imagine anyone feeling half as passionately about Joe as the Juggalos do about ICP, so Biden’s willingness to mulch through them for votes seems understandable, this is his “shoot someone on Fifth Avenue” moment.

  • In more fictional “shutting things down” news this seems very sensible, and should be the framework for the next JURASSIC PARK film. All the people outside clamoring to be disemboweled by a raptor claw because The CAAAHNSTUHTOOSHUN lets me.

    i owe the Jurassic Park franchise an apology, it is in fact very realistic the rich would reopen a park in spite of it consistently resulting in mass death

  • I don’t see why her boss is so upset, this is a very good bit, just commend the work and move on. In related videoconferencing background news, noted tip-stealers DoorDash have teamed up with restaurants to create virtual backgrounds for your chats, so you can trick your friends into thinking you’re at a Buffalo Wild Wings, or trapped in a bucket of giant McDonald’s fries. The very core of this idea feels like hell to me, but they’re available here if that’s your thing and, let’s be honest, I downloaded them anyways because you have to find ways to laugh, and also just to remember what a Chili’s looks like.

  • I’m more curious how quickly these searches happened in sequence, like what was the lead time between learning numbers and learning how to hump? Also who is Ryan, which one, did his son expect to find that specific Ryan on the first go-around?

  • Finally, I’d really like to know how this came about, but this kind of supremely dumb wordplay is very much my shit, so I will in turn pass this thing I found along to you.
