"i asked grok" "i asked chatgpt" yeah well i asked carl sagan and he said the greatest enemy of knowledge is not ignorance but the illusion of knowledge 🧪

There’s no reason ever again for any Democrat to suggest moderating on trans rights. There was never a moral reason but now there’s no political reason either. Somebody tell Gavin Newsom and Pete Buttigieg. it’s joe-ver.

make racism cringe again

Zohran literally just quoted Spider-man (2002) and I am here for it 😊

“No hell is hot enough or eternal enough for Dick Cheney.” 🤌🤌🤌

Let’s go gerrymandering let’s go 👏👏👏 #Yeson50

are we allowed to talk about how Hamilton is good again yet or is that still, like, off limits

Finally Will Smith gets a redemption moment

Back in my day, AI used to stand for Adobe Illustrator! And we hated that, too!

This is probably the funniest headline of the year.

god: okay the day that is happening now is called today angel: *writing* ok god: and the day that just ended is called terday angel: terday? god: yes terday angel: *writing* ok

Of course it's being pushed by Randy "Starve away, Gaza" Fine. Flordia please come get your boy

As Zohran has pointed out, these NYC billionares have already spent waaaaaaay more on attack ads against him than he ever would have taxed them in four years.

This is such a tedious misdirect. Yeah while we’re here let’s check everybody’s 1040 before they take the Staten Island ferry. If you make more than $200,000 a year that’ll be $3 please.

Well well well

there’s a subset of people who, if you point out something bad happening now, will basically reply “it was always like this and anyone who disagrees is just privileged.” it parades as savvy but nine times out of ten it’s just an ahistorical oversimplification.

I did means Zimbabwe. I even googled it before I posted it to make sure I had the right country, and then posted the wrong country anyway. On a related note did you know that THC can stay in your system for weeks?

Not to out myself as a secret dumb dumb but I’m wondering if there’s any economics guys following that think about hyperinflation (and I’m talking like Weimar Germany or Tanzania) happening in the US as much as I do and can tell me how, you know, justified those thoughts are?

It's kinda cool that Gary Larson is doing new cartoons because he picked up a digital tablet, taught himself how to use it, and it made him love drawing again. www.thefarside.com/new-stuff/

Man what I wouldn’t give to see how historians contextualize this in a hundred years

#NoKings Miami!

I hate the phrase “history doesn’t repeat, but it rhymes” Like, what does that even mean? Nobody who says that history repeats itself means in the literal sense. people understand that when you say “history is repeating itself” you are referring to patterns not a literal pantomime of a previous time

Robin Williams' daughter has some quality thoughts on AI slop

Thinking about the @lindsayellis.bsky.social video where she noted how white nationalists co-opted American history X and all these other “strong” critiques but can’t handle “Springtime for Hitler” because of how ridiculous it makes them look

🌟 DASHCON 3 INFO 😀 - Yes, there will be a ball pit! - The Superwholock panel has been moved from Saturday to Sunday - All attendees are forbidden from defaming the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the Saudi royal family, legal system, government, or any religion, religious figure, or religious practice

I have looked at the research smartass, I had two back-to-back pregnancies. How many have you had? I didn’t use Tylenol because it’s just not a very effective, but regardless I find the correlational “evidence” extremely weak and not convincing.

but one of the things that drives me crazy around ALL pregnancy discourse (not just secretary brainworm) is this idea that choices made during pregnancy are causal to whatever your problem is, rather than 99.99% of all pregnancy outcomes being down to chance and not whether you took Tylenol or not

ICYMI ☺️

This broken clock is correct - for better or worse speech that another country is considered hate speech is protected speech here. Figures MAGA would be the ones to try to introduce “hate speech” laws.

Dam been writing a book about this and she just TikToked it in 90 seconds.

This is the biggest attack on free speech since the McCarthy era but it also has significantly less popular consensus behind it than the second Red Scare. It's being done on behalf of a minority faction led by the most unpopular president in modern history. Organizing against this can win.

anyone who thinks this does not ever have to routinely interact with people with whom they do not share a common language

photographs you can hear

after reading media theory about this for MONTHS, i present my Grand Unified Theory of why video essays are so good these days! With many thanks to @lindsayellis.bsky.social, who provided her thoughts on the matter www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/st...

🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

if that news is true, don't say anything you wouldn't want to see screenshotted and spread all over right wing media

Thank god AI has finally solved the problem of there not being enough podcasts

Me, forgetting Sam Raimi is and always will be a horror director: yeah the 3-year old can probably handle Spider-man 2

Docs I trust more than RFK jr

3 yo is obsessed with the Disney Jr Spidey cartoon and we are now watching Into the Spider-verse, she is gonna be so confused when we get to the Raimi films and a) only one spidey b) Doc Oc is a dude?

Like 70% of my adult life

Iconic moment at the Downton Abbey premiere

Fuck

I just hope we live to see the “Death of Stalin”-style movie about it

"Eh, uh. So that was Gandalfini the Grey. That guy ain't me. I'm Gandalfini the White, and I come to you now at the turn of the fucking tide."

Thank you!! Yes it seems like the 501(c)(3) that YouTube uses as their donation medium does restrict who is able to donate easily, but I appreciate you guys outside of the convenient donations for taking the time to look it up and donate regardless!
