@jonbois.bsky.social what’s this nine letter word in today’s NYT crossword?

I got long cyclospora

there is a cohort of men who resent the responsibilities and obligations of adulthood — of the fact that you owe things to other people. it is a fundamentally childish impulse that they have reconfigured as the height of masculinity, and i think it informs the parasocial attraction to platner.

JD Vance converted to Catholicism like a year and a half ago after leafing through the dummy’s guide to the Catholic church, and now he’s trying to lecture the Pope. That should permanently place him in the status of “We don’t talk about him anymore,” with any self-respecting Catholic family.

I just put my finger in the reason why AI is so contemptible. It has turned the entire internet into a 24/7/365 April Fools joke, the lowest and most nefarious form of comedy.

Run for your lives. Abiyoyo’s coming.

If 2A people aren’t seeing this moment in history as the moment they’ve been warning about, then we have to assume that they only obsess about 2A because they *like* school shootings.

Son, 5: Daddy, can I tell you something sad? Me: Yeah. Son: Did you know that there were babies on the Titanic?

“I’ll call the White House, have a chat.”

American conservatism is an unpatriotic, degenerate ideology that worships violence and deifies billionaires. The only reason people ascribe to it is it encourages them to blame their failures on people they’ve never met, and in their weakness and laziness they get addicted to that drug.

The free speech activist who built a list of professors he worked to get fired for their speech must be celebrated for his support of free speech, and anyone who quotes his speech accurately in context will be fired and/or face state punishment by the champions of free speech, do I have that right?

I find it very interesting that every generation before me had it much easier and deliberately made life harder for my generation, while the younger generations after me who were supposed to carry the torch are turning out to be a bunch of lazy crybabies. We are cursed to be the anomaly.

How tf am I supposed to tell my four year old son that Steph Curry got hurt last night

Having money is woke.

My four year old son always calls basketball jerseys “vests,” and I don’t know why. I don’t know how he knows the word “vest.”

If the economy collapses far enough and people are ground down hard enough then I bet those guys in charge that have that funny money with their own faces on it will start to sell you on a little something called neo-feudalism.

One interesting thing about the Lakers/Mavs trade is that Luka is so young the Lakers will have plenty of time to put the pieces in place to build a team around LeBron after Luka retires.

Before the Great Recession people bought PT Cruisers and Hummers that broke when you drove them off the lot and financed them at 8%. Today the same type of people are financing cybertrucks at 9%. In 2043 they’ll be financing a barrel on suspenders and a propeller beanie at 10%.

Coach, giving a long explanation how to dribble a basketball: …so to recap we don’t slap the ball with the palm of our hand. We push the ball with our fingers. Does anyone have any questions? Four year-old: How do robots work?

My New Year’s resolution is to make one hundred dollars.

There are people who claim the Mandela Effect is evidence that two universes collided, and the resulting “quantum entanglement” explains why so many people share these false memories. Wild what people will come up with to explain why they can’t possibly be wrong about something.

How am I supposed to explain to my son that the Detroit Lions don’t win every single game?

This dude’s got it figured out.

Blue sky should just call itself twitter. Nobody’s using the name. This is a tweet.

Summoning salt going to get me through it

you know what? you're right about that. that's a really good point

Is organized extreme frugality a valid form of protest? I feel like I could survive on mostly rice and beans for the next four years.

The only answer is to start exercising again. Must. Get. Up. Must. Regulate. Dopamine.

I can’t express enough how much it fucking sucks to have to go to work today on no sleep and treat patients who I know for a fact voted against my interests, against their own interests, against their neighbors interests…

Respectfully, how do I tell the Bluesky algorithm that furry art does not interest me?
