I'm cryeing

in 1995 when Friends was sweeping the nation, my friends and i all obsessed over a funny mtv man-on-the-street segment where they asked people for their favorite kind of music and one guy said "The Rembrandts are my favorite kind of music." another guy said "Nivarna." that's riot fest's audience now

The disparity btwn what’s actually happening in Los Angeles and the way it’s being mischaracterized is one of the biggest stress tests of modern media in recent memory. Botted socials, AI, old clips, declining literacy—it’s like seeing a broken emergency response system hit by a storm.

god bless the knicks for giving me something to laugh about in these trying times

dude this party is such an echo chamber. it's just friends hanging out and chilling and having a good time. you need to invite some people over who want to kill you with hammers

the "where are all the protests against trump" people became the "these protests against trump are bad optics" people so quickly you may have missed it

it's very funny that the Knicks fired their coach and now they don't have a coach and they're going around the neighborhood ringing all the other teams' doorbells and asking if their coach can come out and play

Send this melted fuckass back to Fraggle Rock. Let the Doozers have their way with him

the random item shop/save spot deep into a dungeon before a boss

When America awarded 49.8 percent of the popular vote to Trump, they were crying out as one that they wanted it to be June of 2020 again, and then to just hang out in that vibe for as long as possible. And on that front you absolutely have to hand it to the guy for getting us there so quickly.

to be fair, everybody involved in the development of “AI“ is far too stupid to play chess

once again thinking about this Michelle Wolf skit from 2018. still shocked she snuck this onto Netflix youtu.be/dNF6sVurAuI

the thing I love about having a friend who writes for the hard times is being able to instantly tell which posts are his (the few that are good) and which ones aren't (the many thousands of bad ones) from one second's glance

thinkin of this tweet for no particular reason

Whenever someone says they’re afraid of downtown in American cities, I’m always like, brother, that’s where the Fogos de Chão are.

just saw a white person from vermont state that they were now in "the minority" because of an "influx" of what I must assume they are implying are non-whites from other states

We need to build some real social stigma around being afraid of cities. You don't have to like them or live there, but a politics built this strongly around watching TV and going "ewww" is embarrassing, and people should be embarrassed by it. It's like "fear of werewolves" being your top issue.

Pep Guardiola: “It's so painful what we see in Gaza. It hurts my whole body… Maybe we think that we see the boys and girls of 4 yo being killed by the bomb, it's not our business… Sorry, but I see my kids. When I see every morning since the nightmare started the infants in Gaza, and I'm so scared."

thinking of what sporting events would be fun if they’d happened in the Twitter/Bluesky era, and I just thought of Cal Ripken Jr. breaking the Ironman record while everyone posts “sorry, this fucking sucks, I’m not celebrating someone going to work every day”

hopefully their data center is getting waymo’d

this is an unprecedented, record-breaking level of "damn that's crazy"

This is happening because reconstruction was halted in a corrupt bargain after the civil war

Getting word that Gavin Newsom just showed up and wrecked these guys little makeshift encampment. He said no vagrants and he fucking meant it.

third amendment continues to pull its weight as the secret funniest load bearing cog in america's stupid machine

bluesky: you can yell at a senator x: for a monthly fee, you can yell at a democratic senator mastodon: we do not have any senators threads: we have invented an entire platform to make senators feel as safe as possible while interacting with nabisco

I have an ANNOUNCEMENT!!! since the NYT's Ethicist is bad & dumb, I'm creating my own ethics column. MR PUSSY'S ETHICS PIT. I alone decide whether you can atone for your ethical crimes or whether we have to throw you in the pit. submit your ethical questions now!!!!!! docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

these dumbasses are just escalating and simultaneously burning out all their troops. mobilizing the military is like the dumbest possible strategy

hey we’re gonna need you to come in for some unpaid overtime to shoot civilians and sleep in a dirty garage. there’s a bucket for shitting just bring it back when you’re done or it comes out of your pay.

RIP to Sly Stone. Calling someone a genius has mostly lost meaning, except when you apply it to Sly. I'm glad Questlove gave him a revealing and rewarding documentary with SLY LIVES (AKA THE BURDEN OF BLACK GENIUS). I wrote about it for @ebertvoices.bsky.social.
