crotch chops for 10k

I've been lucky to know some folks with MaxFun; creative, smart, and kind people. The network makes things that make my life better, make me think or laugh or help me sleep. Not just giving back for that, I want to make sure people who CAN'T swing a membership have that, too.

It's the last day of the @maximumfun.org drive, and I upgraded my longstanding membership because it's incredibly hard right now to make art, and I want to support and protect those efforts. And it IS art, even (especially) if it's sometimes silly, because it's with a co-op and creative control.

It's the last day of MaxFunDrive and as I process what a wild ride it's been so far I want to try and give a sincere pitch for why I feel MaxFun is so special, and why it's worth your support. maximumfun.org/join/

Please go to maximumfun.org/join and join/upgrade/boost to free them from this elevator, which is clearly powered by our support of independent, worker-owned podcasts (I definitely didn't make that up)

The best way to be accurately informed about tonight’s events is to log off for the next 12 hours or so … and I’m going to follow my own advice

hey how's everyone do--

OR JUST WRITE THE THING YOURSELF FOR FUCK'S SAKE IT WILL TAKE LESS TIME THAN WHATEVER THE FUCK THIS IS mashable.com/article/sinc...

MaxFunDrive is here and I just have to say: if you support independent media, you should consider supporting MaxFun. Truly independent networks are rare, and they're dedicated to maintaining that for themselves and the shows. Support the art you want to see in the world (if funds allow obviously)

What are you doing this Thursday? We have 50 or so ideas. isthereamaxfunmeetupnearme.com

To all those asking, yes I *will* be using 🎶Sandy Dildo Vodka Bath🎶 as a lullaby

Don’t worry. Sex, drugs, and violence is only the overture. Welcome to Solari ♥️🔪💉💦

i'm in the dishwasher watching you kiss her OoooOOOooOOOOOoOhhhhh!!!!

Orin says "It's good...I like space." He has read it four times. I'm buying five of them. www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/804068...

Hi it's my annual reminder that the Green Bay Packers were in Pitch Perfect 2 and it's the most perfect thing to ever happen to me in my entire life 💕

Happy Book Day to @griffinmcelroy.bsky.social! Everybody go buy The Stowaway, which is a Choose Your Own Adventure Book, which is the objectively best kind of book (this is an affiliate link; we get some money too if you use it, but it doesn't come out of Griffin's cut so don't worry about it)

I love games and so many of the people who make them. It was an honor to accept the award on behalf of the team and a privilege to be able to speak to what I believe in. ♥️

I know there's a lot of feelings around Bridgerton but clearly the worst part of all is this terrible photoshop job, SM7B mics are SO much bigger than that

Hey. Tell people when they do good job. When you like the stuff they make. When you like the characters they’ve created. The stories they’ve told. Nobody hears it as often as you think bc everyone thinks everyone hears it all the time. Trust. They don’t. Tell. Them.

I have a friend who said, of Starfleet Academy, that this took them out of it - that seeing a person in a wheelchair in the 32nd century seemed unrealistic, since medicine in Star Trek "should be able to cure whatever was wrong with them." That's not the case, for any number of possible reasons.

It could be really bad for Discord if Californians contact the office of the Attorney General to report the potential violations of CCPA and CALOPPA citing the recent breach from a few months back where 1.5tb of user data and millions of IDs were leaked, but who can say for sure?

Next time somebody tries to get me to justify the existence of the humanities, I’ll just point out how for the past two Super Bowls we’ve all jumped online and engaged in collective semiotics and hermeneutics of the half-time show as text.

You're laughing? The team that lends their plane for deportation flights and whose owner is best pals with Trump got utterly humiliated in front of a hundred million viewers, and you're laughing?

Sunny beat me to the very next statement I was going to make. The whole performance wasn’t about the triumph of the individual, but the collective effort and joy that that elevates all of us out of oppression. They literally danced their way through and out of the history of colonialism TOGETHER.

honestly respect for the ad that’s just like “pokemon are cool.” they are cool

Bro literally came out and said “it’s our labor and culture that has always made the Americas great: y’all are just the beneficiaries of slave owners from sea to shining sea,” and I am here for it.

[P] Bad Bunny's halftime show featured farmers, a pickup truck, people drinking and having a party, fireworks, the American flag and him saying "God bless America." Good thing country music fans had the TPUSA show so that they could see anything they could relate to.

“Ring uses AI to help find lost dogs” yup it probably stops there, sounds fine

age the actors back up.

OK "god bless america" and then naming every country in the americas from south to north is absolute king shit

So many cool things about halftime show but the detail that’s sticking to me is how defiant it was to be joyful.

Bad Bunny “together we are America”

Super Bowl confirming what i always knew in my heart: the kicker is the most important guy on the field

Bad Bunny did a variation of the Spike Lee double dolly shot live so you’re now legally required to give this a five star on Letterboxd!!!!

So far, the toilet commercial wins for me. "Take a look at your pee" to the tune of "Take a look at me now"? Singing toilets of all kinds? No notes

Sorry, Green Day did "Holiday" and someone said they weren't being political?! Please, no, I will hurt myself laughing this hard

Yup. This is also why I get annoyed when people start suggesting "golden age" science fiction titles to people who are new the genre and are asking for suggestions. You want to turn a modern 15-year-old off science fiction forever, recommend stories that were old when her grandparents were her age.

“Did they grow up under a rock??” Yes. And the rock was probably put there on purpose by men who wanted uneducated people to control. This is why we don’t leave any state or county or town behind. Nobody deserves to grow up under a rock. Especially one they would never have the power to move.

This video had me swinging wildly between cheering, cursing, and tearing up for 92 minutes and it's absolutely worth your time

Look, it's been hard for me to figure out how to talk about the difference between healthy masculinity and bullshit, weak, fear-based control fantasies, but BOY HAS THIS WEEK MADE EVERYTHING MORE CLEAR.

Good.

I’m wondering what all this software is that people now make that it wasn’t worth for them learning programming for And what all the articles are it wasn’t worth learning writing for. And what all the art is that it wasn’t worth learning how to express yourself for.

If Trump or Vance or Musk do something that seems completely irrational to you, ask yourself “is this getting them more attention?” If the answer is “yes” then actually it makes perfect sense. And the answer will always be yes.

There's so much awful in the world right now, but one of the unrelated things giving me hope is AGDQ. Someone just ran Majora's Mask blindfolded, tomorrow 70 different people will relay-run Super Mario 64, and this silliness and joy has raised $1.3 million for cancer research Look for the helpers

Also, if you’re having trouble concentrating you’re not alone. BOSS, THE FASCISM
