Maybe we weren’t meant to wake up and read 20 terrible things immediately.

bunch of employees who work at the government facility where they keep ET wet freaking out because they need five things for the email but all they did last week was spray water on ET

I think it's cool that the new deputy FBI director, Dan Bongino once got so mad that he did a multi-day tweet thread about how communists should be put down like dogs because I called him "bongo vagina"

driving to taco bell at 1:34 am

Too bad the Incredible Hulk couldn’t make it to help out with that other hulk, probably busy doing something else

Costco and Trader Joes are yin and yang. Together they form a harmonious balance. One sells big piles of normal food, the other sells small piles of weird food. These are the two food piles people need

Outlive these fucking ghouls

Holy moly I have only ever seen the SICKOS guy and never knew what he was looking at and what fun. The Statue of Liberty is there!

again, this is the easiest political slam dunk in the world find a veteran with a lifetime of public service who has been fired for no reason and bring him on television with you do it again tomorrow with a different veteran, and again, and again show the human cost

Someone should really interview Paul Verhoeven about what’s happening in the US now.

My god this scene was spectacular. Having the male hero of a tv show sob with guilt and shame because he was a victim and was forced to victimize others would be a remarkable, progressive storyline if it came out today. This was 35 years ago.

so i downloaded this “track your hydration” drinking app and it is a fucken nightmare i am drinking so much shit i feel like an amphibian to meet these goals if this is what healthy is, i want to be ill

“MaYbe shE’s goiNg to be in TroUble nOw” Maybe he can learn to read. The Constitution would be a good place to start

Happy ten years to this bad boy.

This might be a top 3 favorite baseball photo.

Elon Musk to reporter: “We post our actions to the DOGE website. All of our actions are maximally transparent. I don’t know of a case where an organization has been more transparent than the DOGE organization.” Here’s the doge.gov website IN ITS ENTIRETY. It’s literally a blank page!

Drake rn:

"It was a great honor to lose historically in front of President Trump before he got up and left during the 2nd quarter due to how bad we sucked."

Pals, you keep sharing this into the timeline even though it's from Iowa State in 2023. Can we leave the "taking something old and claiming it's new and newsworthy" shit back on Twitter? Thanks.

Imagine looking for a cult leader and choosing Elon Musk. Have some self respect

i know ppl here do not enjoy screenshots of X but this one is such a great encapsulation of what it's become

The NIH announced it will slash billions of dollars of support to universities and research centers. This is one of the biggest attacks on science we have ever seen. It could dismantle the biomedical research system, shut down clinical trials, and halt development of treatments.

1. Today the NIH director issued a new directive slashing overhead rates to 15%. I want to provide some context on what that means and why it matters. grants.nih.gov/grants/guide...

“Audacious.” What the fuck are these people doing.

I don't think what I'm doing is doomscrolling anymore, it's just scrolling without processing and letting it wash over me like sludge over a baby duck in those Dawn ads

The fastest and best American ways to gain class consciousness are 1. To watch film noir and 2. To root for a team owned by a shithead. In other countries they read books and stuff.

Boy I really hope something good happens soon! Lol

I demand that Chuck Schumer be digitized and uploaded so he can take back control of government systems from inside the computer realm

I can’t explain it exactly but these are the same posts. They sing the same music

i love artificial intelligence

Elon is still a loser and X is still garbage. All the money and unchecked power in the world doesn't budge the needle on that.

Long live the @grandillusioncinema.org!

I went to the store to get a cucumber and they were all the same price but one was much bigger so of course I got that one. When I took it up to the cashier he said Dang and swung it like a baseball bat a few times. Now that's what I call Going to the Store.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent. Opportunities are everywhere. Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

Was on NPR's onthemedia.bsky.social with Brooke Gladstone talking about generative AI. I believe I am the first person to refer to Sam Altman as a nasty little man on the radio podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/o...

I've watched this video maybe 20 times in the last day

Congressional Dems badly missing the moment right now. They are currently holding a press conference to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Chex Quest - a great game to be sure, but weeks late and hardly the biggest priority right now.

lin Manuel blocked me on twitter like a decade ago because a mars rover account said they were playing a hamilton song on mars and i replied to the rover saying "please don't encourage him" and he wasnt even tagged in it. he sought it out. nasty freak brain on him

I made you a soothing relaxation tool - it’s a video of my vintage chalkware cat bank watching a lava lamp.

I'm so fucking tired of this. You are not owed access to making art, nor is art exclusively about being good at it! I also got told a lot of the time when I was a kid that I was stupid and going to be a failure, and that I could not write, in part because of my coordinational disability. Sickening

In 1988 you had to repeat three times for a Beetlejuice. Just four years later it was five times to get a Candyman. That's inflation for you.

i do not understand the ideological impetus for this policy (or the NIH research freeze). it’s not clientelism, his constituents are the main recipients. it’s a death maximization strategy. like he’s entered a contract with some dark god and must deliver them souls

I bet everyone who accused Elon Musk of making a “Nazi salute” feels stupid now that we know he was karate chopping a bee to save the life of a boy with allergies in the front row

Blue states need to start taxing the fuck out of their billionaires and churches.

I don’t know the story here but my best guess is “tripped over the cat going down stairs in the dark but still love him anyway”. Photo from my collection, 1958.

May I offer a little timeline reset: Jayne Mansfield plays with her black cat and white bunny rabbit (while wearing, for some reason, a "French painter" outfit, decorated mules, and no pants). Photographed at her L.A. home in 1955 by Earl Leaf.
