when I was younger I thought the subplot of Ender’s Game in which Ender’s siblings shitpost themselves into running the world was the least realistic part of the book I am coming around to the idea that it was by far the most realistic

Heard a song from the 80s reference a "long distance call" and it occurred to me that this is a concept that no longer holds any emotional currency whatsoever

The time for action is now. Call Chuck Schumer’s office and demand he start mocking Donald Trump by repeating everything Trump says in a dumb guy voice

the longer i dont have sex the more interested in crypto i become

i don't think reading this to yourself does justice to how bad it is. read it out loud. you'll immediately notice how stilted and uncomfortable the prose is, like someone struggling to articulate an actual thought

“Rise Up, Deutschland!” is definitely a thing normal people who are not Nazis say Again, this man is running for School Board Seat A In Anchorage

Keep firing, assholes! www.axios.com/2025/02/12/d...

ERIC ADAMS: I want to thank you, as a brother from another mother, for seeing in your heart to set me free, from this witch hunt TRUMP: you were remarkable in the space jam, you did such wonderful things against the monstars

JEN PSAKI: Democrats just lost everything. They control nothing... JON STEWART: They do control the email lists that continue to ask for money.

Doctor: I’m sorry, your son, he’s — Dad: He’s What? Mom: *starts weeping* Dad: HE’s WHAT? SPIT IT OUT Doctor: He’s…he’s Online

hochul isn't getting rid of adams because new york dems would rather burn manhattan down than put Jumaane Williams in charge

whipping up hysteria about antipsychotic medications seems like a bad idea!

This is an encouraging statistic from Anat Shenker-Osorio in Rolling Stone and a good reminder that peaceful protest is not actually pointless group therapy.

Time to return to history

“sent a letter”

I’ve been thinking about this a lot, as this is a favorite poem of mine. I don’t know that Kendrick’s show was revolutionary, or that the revolution will be televised (or livetweeted), but the reference was appreciated

why does this mannequin look like Benedict Cumberbatch

it's cool being raised protestant and seeing someone catholic get in trouble with the pope . it's like when you were a kid and seeing someone get in trouble with their mom - that's not my mom she can't even yell at me

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.

MAJOR EFFICIENCY WIN: the CFPB that’s returned over $21,000,000,000.00 to scammed americans now being dissolved to save every american $2.00 annually

thinking about writing a nodejs logging library yet again 😅

Imagining them making excuses like they want to avoid their in-laws

one thing I’m seeing all over is people who admittedly don’t follow popular music feeling left out because they don’t know Kendrick’s music. believe it or not, if you ignore mainstream music for a decade you might not be familiar with the Super Bowl halftime performer

Now you can go between playing Gunhed and doing serious biz with just the flick of a switch. The Sharp X1 Twin (1987) is another neat dual hardware PC, incorporating a PC Engine inside its slim and stylish tower. As with the Mega PC, the X1 and PCE components do not interact with one another.

i think the chiefs basically threepeated. the only reason they didn’t win the third super bowl is that they had to play a team that was better than them. not fair, not their fault

Never Forget

we finally did it boys. we got our own freedom fries 🥲

Elon Musk’s only legitimate use is as a human dowsing rod that finds even dumber guys

i took some pics of underpainting i did and if anyone wants to use this as a cover for their electronica album it’s all yours

when follower-only replies are implemented it will be d-day for a certain kind of user on this site

the origin of the name Guybrush Threepwood is one of my favorite things in video games they didn’t have a name for the Monkey Island protagonist at the time so they saved the sprite as “guy” the file was a “brush” file in Deluxe Paint so the artist saved it as “guybrush.bbm” and, well, it stuck

when your girl knows those klingon recipes

Me: [glances in the general direction of the bathroom] Shampoo bottles in the shower that I absolutely did not touch:

responding to an email is the new answering a phone call

I can not believe this is a serious post
