We live in a fascinating era. Podcasting today is a big enough medium that we can have sweaty try-hard podcasts that are clearly failing to make enough money to cover their production budget.

Trump RN:

financial advice in a weird time: -- develop a plan -- find friends who support you -- preferably 10 of them -- steal $160 million from the Bellagio, the Mirage, and the MGM Grand -- yes those are Terry Benedict's casinos -- get your wife back -- one of the friends should be Don Cheadle btw simple

Calling it now: In 20-30 years people are going to talk about Jonathan Haidt's work the same way we talk about Fredric Wertham's work today.

life's a beach that makes you old

Whoever the next James Bond is they need to do three movies exactly or everything’s ruined

Jeffrey Goldberg thinking he was being pranked and then realizing he was actually just in the war plans group chat is such a good microcosm of how it feels to be alive right now, everything seems fake until you realize it’s actually real and incredibly stupid

Friday at last…

I've been sampled for a song.

yep

AOL warned us of the dangers of logging on. It would play for us the screams of the damned. But we didn’t listen. We didn’t listen.

This is absolutely stunning.

One NYE my partner found me drunk and sobbing on the bathroom floor. Convinced him I was just missing my mum. I'd actually just realised that if we always put new loo rolls at the front of the cupboard, the ones at the back could have been imprisoned there for years.

Death Wish would be an amazing horror movie if you did it from the POV of a group of urban teens who were being targeted by some random middle-aged man who was so scared by their mere existence that he started violently murdering them.

happy valentines to bisexuals specifically

Turned on my PS5 for the first time in literally six months today to unwind and take another crack at Demon's Souls, but I can't open the game.

This ferret didn't serve, but he'll sure talk your ear off at the gun range about how close he was to enlisting.

Today I had the first service from the cleaners that I've hired for my new place. I think that means I am now officially 100% moved in. (Also, look at how fresh and how clean the place is!!!)

Explaining to my nephew that what he thinks are memes are actually called image macros He hangs up as I begin a sentence with "Back on the forums..."

This took my entire Sunday, but at least it is finally done. Was it worth it when 90% of what I'm gonna watch are youtube video essays??? Some questions are best left unanswered.

Anora was my favorite film of 2024, and I think it is going to be even more relevant to our world as we enter 2025. youtu.be/GuPkfvxmtdw

If we're not already calling Robert Eggers "Bobby Eggs" what are we even doing at this point?

💅🏻💅🏻💅🏻

As always.

Sabrina Carpenter making "Taste" the opening track of Short n' Sweet is one of the all-time bold moves in pop music.

This is a notice to my new followers, that Hourly Red Panda exists here and is a delightful follow.

Sunday was leg day. Sunday night and Monday I was hauling boxes to-and-from my old apartment to my new one. That means I've got the mega-DOMS today.

I usually make posts simultaneously to both Threads & BlueSky. Thus, I’ve had a few posts that only get a few likes over here go semi-viral over there. This makes me like BlueSky even more, as there’s no greater argument against Threads than the rain of shit you get if you have a viral post there.

facebook memories be like 'heres a joke in poor taste you posted 15 years ago'

Good morning to all my fellow six-foot-two guys who started saying we're six-foot-one because of that Olivia Rodrigo song.

The highways in DFW are so intense that Apple Maps turns into a full-on video game to help you navigate your drive.

My mom is cleaning out her house to prepare for a renovation, so she gave me my old yearbooks. That's where I found this photo of myself, in 1996, in my high school's Internet Club.

Christmas morning and I’m working up the motivation to get out of the extremely soft guest bed at my mom’s place.

You will NEVER guess what this reply by a government agency is in response to.

Today's lesson: Two years of learning Spanish on Duolingo did not give me the preparation I needed to order breakfast tacos from the food truck down the street from my new apartment.

This isn't for anyone specifically. Just throwing it out there

We have essentially returned to the cultural landscape we had in the nineteenth century, where a person/story/activity could be enormously famous in one particular town and be completely unknown outside of it...

New gameplay trailer for Super VHS! Coming soon to Steam

The MAGA populist chuds who are convinced they wish to return to an imagined 1950s are also the same people who would be furious about only having one car.
