SpaceX is just Elon Musk playing a game of Civ where he’s somehow managed to unlock spaceflight without figuring out the secret of welding.

System tech for The Wonder Years & FOH for Kevin Devine tonight. Great show!

LEFTIST: Dude, you need to grow up and get a hobby. Start treating women like people and find a useful role in society. RIGHT WING INFLUENCER: You’re a pussy. You’re a beta cuck. You’re poor because of the soy in your blood. Suck my dick, simp. YOUNG MAN: the liberals have left me no choice

“no Americana punk tonight" why? "you listen to After the Party every time its 75 degrees out, it's embarrassing" ok [after one beer] uh oh y'all it's gettin kinda Schmenzingers

bro it’s okay that you need ai to help you write an email. anubis has weighed your soul against the feather of fate and found you unworthy. prepare to be devoured

Anyone else start Oblivion Remasted and assume the leveling was the same as the original, only to discover when they finally slept that it had been Skyrimified and they had like 10 level ups banked?

Bluesky crashes when I try to upload the video but I swear I sent my "5.hard" crack climbing project at the gym this weekend. . .only to get completely humbled and shut down on a 5.10 roof at the local Short & Sandbagged Top Rope Crag the next day! 🧗‍♂️

it's not Nathan Fielder's fault that he is a Batman villain in a world without a Batman

straight men arent alienated by their gender or sexuality, they are alienated by their labor and misappropriate it to a gendered liberation struggle as a straightforward reactionary impulse to "respond" to the only liberatory stimulus they are exposed to; womens emancipation, queer normality, etc

System tech for Ministry (and all their extravagant hats) tonight!
