I have sufficient experience of the homicidal depravity of insurance companies that it’s hard for me to bear in mind when they’re just being stupidly incompetent.
What happens if two guys are about to get married but a woman runs up and shoves one of them out of the way and yells “I do” just as they’re taking their vows what then huh?
If the government made ordering more free stuff as easy as ordering the free Covid tests, I’d order a lot more free stuff from the government.

continuing not to tweet about something in which I have little interest and of which I have even less knowledge so please forward medals
Dear Reader, we did not.
Not to blow your mind, you absolute toddler, but you don’t “have to watch” *anything*
Shuffle just blessed me with Stomp! and Strawberry Letter 23 back to back, and really there's nothing better.

White supremacy is a poison running through our body politic.
We need to say as clearly and forcefully as we can that the ideology of white supremacy has no place in America.
Failure to do so will be complicity. Silence will be complicity. We cannot remain silent.

🎵 "...Of those oobly goobly feelings I'm free..."🎵
I think that quite possibly Barbra singing "Let's Hear It for Me" is the gayest thing that's ever gay'd.

It’s 4 in the morning and I can’t sleep. My husband and partner of almost 20 years died last night. It was sudden and unexpected. I am bereft. pic.twitter.com/58D4atRbXb

So I told my staff to change my password, to keep me from temptation, and am departing once again. If I have something to say I'll write an article or make a video. If the issue is not important enough to justify that then perhaps it would be best to just let it go.
Who is that between Sonny and Joan? (My good pals, Sonny and Joan)
This is a nightmare. I keep hoping it’s not true. John was a friend. Married to my dear friend. A loving father and husband, a great doctor, a martial arts instructor, with a ready smile and Texas-bred warmth. My mind is reeling and my heart is broken for his family. 💔
Yes.

"It took more than one man to change my name to Shanghai Lily."

“I want to buy a new hat.”
“Why are you going to Shanghai?”
“I want to buy a new hat.”
It is one of my favorite books, has delight upon delight on every page, and would make a fabulous gift.
I don’t know if you know this but Jordan Peterson only has one copy of his book that he keeps on a string to retrieve it after he sold it, and he just keeps selling it again and again to the same 12 dudes.
I always felt she was kind of a female Astaire - a technical master who often worked at arm's length from the audience, which made her highly unusual for female musical stars of the time

Indeed, it does not hurt.
You're just irrelevant people jealous of his success and reach. Nobody knows you, nobody cares who you are, and nobody will remember you. Ouch, that must hurt.
Why is it that the snottiest responses always come from cowards who don't use their own name or likeness? pic.twitter.com/6Not67q4HJ
Oh, wow, I really just need to pack a suitcase and flee Twitter now, don't I.
How many books have YOU sold?
Just fyi, @NancySinatra, you know how sometimes you're having one of those days when nothing feels quite right and you can't even find the right music to smooth it out?
