this is a dril tweet

Looking for videos to entertain my kid and had the truly uncanny experience of finding myself in the crowd of a @guster.bsky.social show from 22 years ago

It is actually impossible for me to hear Dan Bongino's name and not think of this youtu.be/09Nan-uARF4?...

New whiskey club bottle dropped and they're DEFINITELY unloading dead stock. This American single malt 1) sucks and tastes like grain alcohol, and 2) might have the most embarrassing bottle I've ever seen.

Not sure I agree 100% (Hegseth's recent comments are pretty alarming) but this does feel like a legitimate glimmer of hope, and it's worth a read.

Maybe corny but it was helpful for me to hear Henry Rollins saying "this is not time to be dismayed, this is punk rock time, this is what Joe Strummer trained you for... You can be thunderous in your own life, to the eight people around you. That rubs off... Goodness is viral"

Sometimes you say good morning to the internet and the internet says good morning right back.

don’t meet your heros. i finally saw the critters from redwall irl and they don’t even talk. they’re just pissing and shitting everywhere.

My pediatrician, almost in tears, thanked me for letting her vaccinate my child, and added that what's about to happen to vaccine requirements is "going to be a disaster of historic proportions"

this website is on another level

Ignoring the news and listening to PNW music I was obsessed with when I was fifteen, it's better this way. www.youtube.com/watch?v=4EGD...

shout out to all the parent writers. to all the projects started and then withered because a kid had a cold, or fell when you were jotting an idea down, or started a bath and jumped in still dressed. for the conferences and fellowships and sub windows missed. shout out to y’all who keep coming back.

Gary the Canadian Adventure Cat would like to remind America that if it invades Canada, its children will die, scared, alone and frozen.

Hoo boy do I have some shit to say about this. First, Spencer's quotes here are yet another example of Executives Jerking Off Around a Table. They don't know what they're talking about. They have never talked to a single area expert about this ever.

meet me in the famicom cartridge restroom at Twin Peaks High School

"Goodnight nobody / Goodnight mush" is the hardest two-page spread in all of children's literature

The other website is pretty much done

Gimme Magritte, boys, and free my soul / Ceci n’est pas une rock ‘n’ roll / Green apple face

is this anything

every few hours i think about how the nea just completely capitulated immediately while other agencies, including those that fund businesses, haven’t, and it makes me furious all over again

Bruno Schulz nailing New Jersey winter from interwar Poland: "The days hardened with cold and boredom like last year's loaves of bread. One began to cut them with blunt knives without appetite, with a lazy indifference."

My whole vibe right now

They haven't outlawed having a glass of scotch and watching Macross Plus yet, I'm exercising my freedoms while I can

norman mailer meets punk rockers shrapnel backstage at punk pit cbgb

Look I agree that Elon Musk appears to be on a lot of drugs every time he appears in public. That's not very interesting to me. I'm more interested in how many drugs he can do at once. I think he could probably do more than anyone ever. I bet he could take way more than the doctors say is safe.

I wish Americans would understand that Democrats ignoring international law (and their own Leah law) and Republicans ignoring US law are not separate acts but intrinsically connected. You can't stop the latter while ignoring the former.

Eric Adams really gunning for the lead in the race for New York's sleaziest mayor

Yesssssss preordered

A world class hater. I am screaming.

happy super bowl to all
