The Unquiet Ghost of Andrew S.

this is my brand

UPDATE: one week from Friday you'll be able to rent "MUSK" and watch it in the comfort of your own home!

Oh, man, he's so close to getting it.

Brazil’s results tonight are a big endorsement for the idea that every country should have a second “are you you sure about that” election a couple weeks after the first one for the important stuff

The other thing here is heggles is an army guy and (it is my understanding) the marines generally do not like army people telling them what to do (and in particular saying who gets to be a marine)

excuse me ‘obama’ but our nation’s proudest and most toothless yokels think of the cheesecake factory as a sort of high end golden corral which fyi means a lot in their culture. i know this because a lot of them used to janitor for my young republicans meetings at yale

Cheesecake Factory Architect: The vibe I’m going for is “insane sultan sorcerer who keeps murdering his wives and constructs an enchanted palace designed to forever trap their souls”

[If I may be permitted to belabor the obvious Obama's joke lands best if you know what a Cheesecake Factory looks like! It's not a swipe at people who enjoy eating there. I enjoy visiting Vegas, it doesn't mean I think it would be good if the White House looked like the floor of the Cosmopolitan]

so I know this is just anecdata but I was traveling today and I must’ve seen dozens of white people showing their faces, probably more, so maybe that lady has other issues

Essential context: To Elon Musk, the “elites” don’t include the trillionaire who is trying to buy a senate seat, but they do include an assistant professor of sociology who used his daughter’s preferred name

good and correct (and points out, further correctly, how incredibly fucking sweaty this gambit is on the part of the Ramaswamy campaign; they *very badly don't want this* to be talked about or seen by people OTHER than the MAGAts they're trying to activate with it)

This Access Hollywood strategy, deified and pushed by their groyper consultants, is all they have left. And they will be consumed by it. As long as we stay engaged and fight.

Standing there like a goddamn statue for five or six seconds ...

"big guys, great asses, tears in their eyes "sir...sir" they pleaded "please take this cognitive test again sir" and what am i going to do refuse have u seen their asses"

Ruin a song by adding "In My Pants" to the title: The Final Countdown In My Pants

tired: “tournament at Maimonides Park” wired: “Rambam Slam”

Can pretty much guarantee that Bacchus consented to this interaction

Best way to understand MAGA is as a version of the Star Trek episode "A Piece of the Action" but instead of basing their society around an old book about gangland Chicago they based it on the Epstein Files.

lots and lots of people making the imo bad assumption that if a D candidate in a red state says something publicly that isn't maximally pro-trans, the group they're deceiving about their future intentions is trans people rather than moderate voters

We're seeing a split. If you want to grab a place in the post-Trump GOP, one way to do it is to vice-signal--"I am willing to do or defend any loathsome deed because I'm a ruthless fighter." JD, Megyn Kelly, Shapiro, etc. If you want to look at yourself in the mirror, this may be a bridge too far.

not a fan of the “I’ll take fascism and cheap gas” constituency but they are at least noticing that they didn’t get the “cheap gas” part of the deal

As a side note I appreciate George Michael for many reasons, among them how many of his songs were like "I am a TERRIBLE boyfriend to this woman, for reasons I could not possibly detail"

now here's the thing: it is of course completely reasonable for someone to be skeptical of cars on the ground that they are *dangerous*, but anyone who says they are *useless* is obviously very dumb AI denialists seem not to have grasped this distinction yet

time for me to dig out my “draft Neil Bush“ sign from 1990

time for the GOP attack ads hitting Zoran for violating sharia

I loved his twenty minutes on “top asses in Republican politics”* and so did the crowd *Hunsted? Excellent, but not #1! There was a surprise!

ok non-tech ppl might be hearing some scary things about "critical vulnerabilities" involving certificates. the main thing you need to know, without getting down in the weeds about it, is that the fourth seal is broken. lo, a rider approacheth upon a pale steed, and his name is Death

Putin is a “humanitarian” in much the same sense as I am a “vegetarian”

A-mazing. Gosh, this is wonderful.

We actually shamed Mike Lee’s chief of staff wow

I'm sorry but if you are trying to convince us that your daughter was lying about your husband molesting her and you siding with him, going "and she was dressed like a little slut too" is uhhh a bold strategy choice

Imagine what it’s like to be inside Ramaswamy HQ right now, seeing the reaction. Staffers absolutely shitting themselves. R having a nervous breakdown. Bet it smells crazy in there.
