A comprehensive new survey has concluded that the ideal moment for you to have gotten your life together was roughly five years ago. Not now, not next year, not after one more reset or reinvention, but a very specific window in the past when you were already tired but still had “potential,” and people hadn’t yet adjusted their expectations downward.

The study clarifies that this moment varied slightly depending on who was asked. For some respondents, it was right after you graduated. For others, it was when you got that job you later quit, or that relationship you “weren’t ready for.” But all participants agreed on one thing: Whatever you are currently doing does not count as getting your life together.

Researchers interviewed friends who describe you as “figuring things out” in a tone usually reserved for broken appliances. These friends recalled the exact instant they realized you were not, in fact, on the brink of something big, but instead circling the same small set of problems with increasing confidence. Several noted that they now preface stories about you with phrases like “still” and “basically.”

Note: All of Jeanine Pirro’s dialogue below is taken from statements she has made on the record and accurately reflects the spirit in which they were delivered.

MODERATOR: It’s the anniversary of the January 6th riot at the US Capitol, and although five years have passed, there remains a great deal of disagreement about what transpired on that day. Joining me to discuss this are two distinguished guests: Fox News host Jeanine Pirro, and US Attorney for the District of Columbia Jeanine Pirro. My first question to both of you: Do you agree with the January 6th Committee that what took place that day was, in fact, a violent insurrection against the United States government? I’ll start with you, Ms. Pirro.

The US Department of Justice indictment of Venezuela’s kidnapped leader, Nicolas Maduro, is a political rant that relies heavily on coerced testimony from an unreliable witness. Despite DOJ edits, it could expose more Americans to the CIA’s own history of drug trafficking. The January 3 US military raid on Venezuela to kidnap President Nicolas Maduro and First Lady Cilia Flores was followed by the Department of Justice’s release of its superseding indictment of the two abductees as well as their […]

Well, they say you should never trust a politician, and it seems I’ve been duped.

As an avid reader of the New York Post, the New York Post’s X feed, and transcripts of several-minute-long voice memos from my relatives who have never lived in New York and will never live in New York, I was promised one thing from a Zohran Mamdani mayoralty: chaos.

Campus chaos. Anti-ICE chaos. Chaos in our parks, sidewalks, and public spaces.

And as an anarcho-communist-accelerationist-antifascist-nihilist-transplant-gentrifier-crisis actor living in a rent-controlled penthouse bodega paid for by some combination of my mommy and George Soros, that’s exactly why I wanted Zohran to win.

The kidnapping of Maduro is fascinating and it’s interesting to speculate whether it was inside job. Some sources have claimed it, we’ll know by the actions the new leadership takes. If they let the oil majors and American “advisors” in, then the allegations are probably true. Other sources are saying that Acting President Delcy and […]

How Joe Rogan and Mel Gibson turned a metaphor into a reality. By George Monbiot, published in the Guardian 27th December 2025 Looking back on this crazy year, one event, right at the start, seems to me to encapsulate the whole. In January, recording his podcast in a studio in Austin, Texas, the host, Joe […]
