The "I'm going back to Twitter" MFs think posting matters. Social media is a form of entertainment, no different than any other, so the goal is to spend a limited amount of time on it & have fun with it.

This is actually the perfect social media site, if you never leave your Following tab. Check it once or twice a day, for 5 minutes, go about life. That's the way to do it.

Democrats: *do literally nothing* Democrat boosters: "Democratic policy is on track for a historic midterm victory, that will prove they're doing it right, and you pro-trans leftists just can't handle that. That's why you're attacking candidates who call trans women men."

Amazing to see liberals shove public opinion polls about trans people in sports & gender affirming care for minors in your face, when it took until 1990 fucking 7 for public acceptance of interracial marriage to flip from negative to positive. 30 years after Loving v Virginia 🫩

I'm try telling kids these days, I tell them don't pay The Ferryman, and you know what they're doing? They're over there fixing a price. smh

I mute every thread after a my comment of mine gets like 40 likes. The novelty of interacting with about 5 strangers is more than enough.

theres this desperation to the way people talk about twitter and this site like ohh twitter has more engagement! more is happening over there! politics! like why do you need notifications so bad homie. go outside and talk to people. you are addicted to dopamine

Amazing how Google has destroyed their browser and search website like they're tanking the season to get a lottery pick or move to Vegas

Every game with procedurally generated levels is worse than a game with designed levels. I don't want to play a game for 400 hours, I want to play a memorable game.

If only there was someone who is really good at speaking off the cuff & being clever and mean they could've booked to go up on stage. Like, a comedian. Ah well, enjoy the "mentalist" show šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø

Zero. Sympathy. They did this to themselves. Oh, and also? There definitely is an easy answer.

It's still weird that Warwick Davis came back & made a Willow TV series & they just deleted it from existing. It was totally strange, and had flaws, but still interesting and it legally doesn't exist.

This Halloween, when you see older kids, who seem to be "too old" to be out trick r treating: be kind, be understanding, and remember, the news told them people were giving out drugs. 🫶

Sometimes I'll see a comedian I like hanging out with some of the worst people in the comedy world and say "Oh no! Are they actually evil too?!", but in this case I was relieved to discover that no, no, they are just very, very dumb. whew, close one.

Bringing up polls that say most Americans support restrictions on trans ppl is such a disingenuous framing. If you asked me if organ donor boxes should be checked by default, I'd say yes. If you asked me to list my 300 biggest concerns, organ donor boxes probably wouldn't make the list.

People using "Purity test' as a phrase for thinking people have inalienable rights, and treating that the same as saying you're not a punk of you listen to Green Day

It's extra dumb when metal bands use AI to make cover art, because everyone in a metal band knows some guy who spent most of high school drawing stuff that looks like heavy metal album art

Val Kilmer wasn't feeling well enough to appear in the Willow tv series. If he had been able to grit it out, his last acting credit would've been deleted out of existence for a tax write-off.

Twitter is as bad as ever, and every major corporation is back to advertising on the platform. Probably fine. Probably NBD that McDonald's is fine with their ad above the most racist post you've ever seen. No further reaching ramifications for society at large.

White House, 4 months from now: "If any individual identifies as transgender or non-binary, they will be placed in the camps." Bluesky Liberals: "Did you just use a singular they pronoun? Haha, Donald Dumpf owned!" šŸ™„
