Trump-humpers, explain something to me: Why you were frothing at the mouth over Barack Obama being “born in Kenya” and demanding to see his birth certificate… But you’re okay with “First Buddy...


So remember how the Orange Shitgibbon said he’d lower our grocery prices? And those of you who voted for him believed it? You fools. You absolute goddamn idiots. Needless to say, I never b...



Is it too much to hope that time will freeze at 11:59:59? And that we’ll all be caught in some type of Twilight Zone/Groundhog Day thing until someone Luigi Mangione’s the Orange Shitgibbon, Fak...


How long have you been on PB? Since 2013, probably right after it was launched. Were you on OD, TOD, MDD, DE, LJ, or another journaling site before this? I was on OD and LJ, and Tumblr almost c...


I was at my parents’ house in Indianapolis all last week, and because my very old Macbook died earlier this year (I think the motherboard shorted out, so not really worth fixing; I’ll just keep ...

I think we need a playlist. See if you can spot the theme! ETA: Matt Baume’s video on Cabaret.
