Jessica in Movies, re: Jupiter Ascending:
It's like Guardians of the Galaxy meets Dune but they don't have anything to say to each other so they just stand around awkwardly for two hours and then leave.
Jessica in Natter:
It is a truth universally acknowledged that any URL containing the words "thetruthabout" must be in want of the facts.

Sophia: The big clock temperature thing said -0. I think it was confused.
Jesse: Yeah, that screams "I don't know! I give up! Can the display just read COLD AS BALLS???"
Funny cause it's true. On the advantages of the home office:
When you work from home, nobody can hear you issuing death threats. So at least I've got that going for me, which is nice.

I'll have to work on a stern and steely gaze to accompany the statement, "Of COURSE this is business casual. Please note that it's an underbust corset."

A stern and steely gaze sounds like the perfect accessory for any work party.
I'd say for this one that we don't need no stinkin' context, except that llamas might be extinct by then for all I know. But when we are celebrating Internet Freedom Day lo these many years down the road, we should remember:

My two favorite comments on the llama and dress weirdness of yesterday's internet, both pulled from Twitter:
Biden: WOOO FREE INTERNET
Obama: Joe, would you cut it-
Biden: SET LOOSE THE LLAMAS
Obama: CAN YOU JUST-
Biden: RELEASE NANA'S TRICK DRESS
And also:
"...and that kids, is how February 26th became National Internet Day, and why we decorate llamas in white and gold"
To which someone immediately responded:
"Yeah, but dad... Some of the kids in my class decorate their llamas in blue and black."
