I mean democracy is the best we got, but all votes counting the same feels crazy after watching this.

Right now, all over Britain, drunk robins are dismantling the system and making up their own rules.

Visiting favourite trees..✨

fuck i just realized my wife has never disavowed the muslim brotherhood

Vindaloo only recently learned how to loaf it up. Looking fairly pro already.

Destroy this company, pls.

One of the lessons of Athens must be that democracies can inflict atrocities just as well as autocracies. Our democracy does not make us moral; we must make moral our democracy.

This is great!

If your belief system is against the concept of equal rights, your belief system can fuck off.

I am so very, very tired of all these tech assholes and their Very Special Boy Syndrome. The only known cure is poverty. We must confiscate and redistribute all of their assets. For their own good, and for the good of society.

Why isn’t this an #emoji yet?

I wish I had this good of a poker face.

Everyone talks about how prescient Idiocracy was but I want to point out that president Camacho, while a buffoon, was a better, nicer, person than Trump is. Sad.

great piece. man social media is a cancer themomoftheyear.substack.com/p/im-the-mom...

Okay, Duffelblog's wardog of the week is particularly good today.

Baudrillard: "It is no longer a question of imitation, nor of reduplication, nor even of parody. It is rather a question of substituting signs of the real for the real itself... Never again will the real have to be produced: this is the vital function of the model in a system of death"

I'm curious about why we're not hearing about the victims of these attacks (Hugging Face, for example) suing OpenAI or otherwise demanding restitution. 🤷

Never lose your keys again

I remember chuckling to myself at people joining the Corps after 9/11: “The counter operations will all be done before they get out of boot camp.” Yes, I am very smart.

As a #Royals fan, I find it unfair that the #Sox got a #Pope to help out

I really need to carve out some time to sit down and review more 20th century cultural criticism of TV - as a kid in the 90s, I recall getting this message most vividly from Calvin and Hobbes. Calvin would, of course, be addicted to YouTube gamer/mascot horror slop if the strip was made today.

Gotta tell you, a company selling a product, that when added to the shopping cart also adds $4.95 to get hassle free returns has lost my business to the one that has a fair return policy.

I think it’s important to point out amazing people while they’re still alive too. Mackenzie Scott is doing the work!

These days when you call the VA they are ALWAYS experiencing a higher than usual call volume. They now tell you how long the wait will be but it’s usually 15-20 minutes versus the 5-6 before. The enshittification under Republicans continues.

I wonder if he ever whispers it to himself: taking the overfull trash out, the bag breaks spills trash everywhere, he looks down, hands on hips… “Thanks, Obama.”

Checking up on Private Ryan

A theater full of kids and my girlfriend at the time asks loudly “Are you crying?” As the lights come up at the end of the”The Iron Giant”

Funniest thing I've read in a long time. Seriously. You need to read this.

Sometimes, on really good days, my hatred of Trump abates enough that I can feel sorry for the scared little boy he is on the inside.

I need to do this, as I know I’m bad at posting anyways

“you’re not welcome!”

I love that I’m seeing this called “vandalism” instead of art.

Erling Halaand returns to Norway with a stuffed raccoon.

Well that hit me in the feels.

So mitch suddenly shows signs of life the exact same day a different senator unexpectedly dies? They aren't even hiding the necromancy anymore

Chicago style. I was in my 40s when I first had one, and I weep for the years I lost not having them this way.
