I live in a state that is rushing to reopen, against the advice of actual medical experts. It’s real cool. Those wire photos you’ve seen of manicurists and hair stylists basically wearing hazmat suits could’ve been taken like two miles from my house. Just the coolest. Georgia’s willingness to put its own people at risk in the name of business is so overwhelmingly cool that I gotta find ways to handle it, and one of the big ones is staring at a dumb Twitter feed all day, liking jokes about the pandemic and ESPN’s Michael Jordan documentary and, of course, as always, Animal Crossing: New Horizons. This right here is the result: our weekly compendium of the tweets that we liked enough to tap a tiny icon on our phone screen. Dig it!

everything might be a nightmare but at least it’s fun watching the people who painted themselves into a corner insisting Trump is a genius try and reverse engineer meaning into sentences like “what if we put uh, nuclear… into the body. injecting nuclear? it could work”
I could have told you Jake Fromm was going to drop in the Draft as soon as he made his Twitter name JakefromStateFromm instead of JakeFrommStateFarm. That kind of poor decision making doesn’t fly in the NFL. pic.twitter.com/BzXb6h1C30
I still remember running into Kim Jong Un at UCB Chelsea in like ’08-09. Even though he was huge at the time, he still watched my whole set and took me aside to tell me all about the business. Can’t believe he’s gone.
Saw a sign that said “move over, coffee, this is a job for wine” and like. No. We’re not pitting two strong women against eachother like that. Not in 2020.

people talk about how nerd culture is “cool” now but remember when a bunch of dweebs threw an absolute tantrum because a star trek movie trailer used “sabotage” by beastie boys? could you be less cool than that?
