Sam’s Club and Walmart just announced today that you get free Walmart+ with a Sam’s Plus membership and I know I’ve finally hit adulthood because I have been this excited about something in months.

Am I the only one who doesn’t mind the time changes? Standard time makes sense in the winter and DST makes sense in the summers. If ANYTHING needs to stick year round - it should be standard time. We already tried DST before. Everyone hated it and they changed it back. 🤷🏻‍♀️

As a small business owner, I have a hard time being upset that a company is simply informing more customers that their product - in its current form - meets their dietary restrictions. I am not a vegetarian or gluten free, but I do notate on our menus which items are so that customers who are gluten free or vegetarian know at first glance which of our selections work for them. The vast majority of cheese are inherently Halal due to the fermenting process used. Same with many other foods you typically eat. Now, land meats - ie beef, chicken, pork - do require a formal “blessing” and specific slaughtering process to be considered halal. But your produce, dairy, grains, whatever - they can still be considered halal without any blessing required. Tillamook Cheese did not change their fermenting process to specifically cater to a halal customer base. They simply placed a graphic on their packaging to inform customers of their operations. Sorry guys, but that’s just capitalism 101.

After careful consideration and reviewing the current eligibility guidelines, I’m officially declaring myself a @WNBA prospect. If simply declaring who you are is all that’s required, then I meet every single requirement necessary to compete in the WNBA. My team and I have carefully examined the WNBA’s eligibility criteria and governing framework surrounding self-identification and inclusion. Based on the current guidelines, I can and am officially declaring my eligibility for the upcoming WNBA draft in April 2027. I know my presence on the court will stir up strong opinions. I am definitely not here to mock, make fun of, or disrespect any community or personal choices. I’m simply asking that the current rules be applied equally to everyone — the rules that represent the very values many WNBA players and coaches have publicly advocated for. My team and I are prepared to ensure these guidelines are applied equally, consistently, and without exception, and I look forward to the #WNBA honoring its stated principles. See you at training camp. enesfreedom.com

Almost a dozen women in Charlotte were attacked. Their most vulnerable moments caught on camera and posted for the world to see. The @CMPD and the local news media refused to cover the story as women walked around the city completely unknowing this was happening. We found out tonight on 𝕏. These attacks were in some of the most affluent and “safest” areas of town. The CMPD finally released a statement after they detained him and placed him in a mental facility - not even a jail cell. He had been arrested 14 times prior to today’s custody.
This is exactly what soft on crime policies will get us more of. We don’t have to live like this. And think about it, the DSA wants to abolish the police and prisons…. And democrats are embracing the DSA…As I’ve said before, who we vote for matters.

Since I’m technically an expert in the burrito field, I figured it’s time I weigh in on the great 𝕏 BurritoGate of 2026. We sell our burritos for $13. We use the large tortillas and for the majority of folks, they’re large enough for two meals. Especially if you get a side with them. Any “boutique” Mexican joint you go to that’s pricing them at $20 - you’re paying for the atmosphere and experience. Not just the food. On the other hand, claiming that you paid $20 to make 8 of them - the term “burrito” is doing some heavy lifting there. You made some bean and cheese roll ups with a dash of spicy meat and called it burrito. Which is fine - do what you need to feed your family. But they’re technically not a burrito. Thanks for coming to my TedTalk.

Me: Makes funny jab about Canadians and their commie wildfires 😅 My Mom: Not everything is communism, Courtney 🙄 Me: McCarthy was never wrong 😏 My Mom: Yes he was! 😡 DSA: Gay abortion amnesty for all! 🙌🏼
I just read through the DSA's new platform. It is the most utopian/dystopian, bat-sh*t insane thing I have ever read. It includes: 1. No more bills for anyone 2. Government-run food, housing, medicine, transportation, and nationalizing all other large corporations and essential industries 3. The drafting of a “new constitution” 4. Defunding the Department of War 5. Slavery reparations 6. Unlimited free abortion and “gender-affirming care” for all, including minors 7. Have taxpayers pay off everyone’s entire student debt & fund unlimited “free” higher education for all 8. Taking “steps toward fully abolishing the police and prison system” 9. Ending ALL deportations, providing amnesty for ALL illegal immigrants, and allowing unlimited migration to America 10. Abolish the Presidency, Supreme Court, and Senate Other than that, their plans seem super realistic, practical, and not at all naive, revolutionary, or dystopian. 🤡🤡🤡

After thorough research, CNBC has concluded that Tennessee is the “worst” state to live in the US based on their “quality of life” scoring system. On behalf of all Tennesseans, I would like to confirm that all of this data is 100% true and you can all stop moving here now.

My friend asked if she could buy a bag of queso from our food truck. Told my husband to bring one home from work so I could run it over to her. One day you’re packing up a bag of goods for your friend and instead of weed its literally just a bag of cheese. Life comes at you fast, man.
I literally see these all the time and while she would have been fine with me now she would not think i was cool lol

I really need more friends with Mexican husbands because I truly cannot describe the level of intensity my living room is currently in.

Everyone wants to talk about how “ARFID wasn’t a thing when I was a kid”. When we were kids, autism was 1 in 10,000. Now it’s 1 in 36. On a side note completely unrelated, of course - children also received less than 20 vaccinations when we were kids. Now there’s almost 100 on the CDC childhood schedule. But I’m sure it’s complete coincidence.

The Euro’s finally realized what their ancestors actually left the homeland for.
This is the TSA oversized liquids bin before my flight. The Europeans have gone crazy for Ranch.
