Nothing makes me feel like more of an abject failure at life than when a beautiful woman calls me “dude,” and dear reader I once crashed an airplane. I should probably explain.

Nobody believes anything about this stuff because it's been an unbroken stream of acrid bullshit for over five years. NFTs and memecoins and now chatbots marketed as acting talent, all from the same internet addled gang of greedy carnies.

As it’s 19 September, it must be... that’s right: time to cuddle your local church—well, if you attend St. Mary’s in Painswick, Gloucestershire. And it’s more a hokey-cokey. And it’ll probably be tomorrow. And strictly speaking it’s called ‘clipping’ the church. Oh, and there’ll be Puppy-Dog Pies...

Dedicating a 250 foot arch to himself—a 5-time draft dodger and pathological bully and coward—is Trump’s way of saying “Fuck you” to all who faithfully served lying in its shadow in Arlington

Guys like Axelrod having whatever the exact opposite of a killer instinct is is a big reason why we got rolled by the dumbest grossest brutes in history twice

You know how people sometimes tell you not to buy a car that was built on a Friday because it would probably be a total piece of crap? I’m an atheist but I do often think about how the last thing god supposedly created just before quitting time at the end of a PARTICULARLY demanding week was us

It seems that my landlady has adopted a new strategy re: the use of the HVAC system, most especially the AC aspect of it. Broadly speaking, the thinking looks to be "Turn the AC on when it's not particularly hot outside (ex: midnight to dawn), and turn it off when it is hot outside".

I should note that so far, this summer has been shockingly seasonal here (Toronto), with only one proper heatwave at the beginning of July. Still, it would nice to know if it's "safe" to cook anything more elaborate than ramen or mac & cheese.

It’s election week! At this important moment I would like to address your entire planet with a message to the people of Earth. And I think I found the perfect place to do it.
