"Did you see what Mark Cuban posted? Oh did you see the clapb—" You shake yourself awake in the cold North Atlantic water. You are not online. It is July of 1858. You are a baleen whale, and you have changed your mind. The future most not come to pass. The telegraph cable must break.

Canadian taxpayer funded media load bearing on my mental health

extremely tired, malformed thought about how bad heated rivalry discourse seems to exclusively come from people who have never engaged with romance as a genre or hockey culture and don't seem to want to see it as a serious creative pursuit because of its nature as part of those things

Not for nothing, but men using tampons as a joke to dismiss a program as "not serious" is a really classic misogynist trope. We can all see what's happening here.

flint absolutely loved my mom so I'm doing baby voice at him like "do you miss grandma ?" like a completely normal person

when i was trying to find a therapist my insurance company's directory led me to 3 disconnected numbers and an auto body shop

I don't want gen AI in my software I don't want gen AI in my phone I don't want gen AI in my email I don't want gen AI in my recipes I don't want gen AI in my safety documentation I don't want gen AI in my schools I don't want gen AI in my healthcare I don't want gen AI in my life

✅ tea ✅Christmas gift chocolates 🔄 heated rivalry !!!

Not sure this captures the nature of the posts.

we will watch new heated rivalry after we drop my mom off

what you finally got bitched at enough ???

Like no, dude, I don’t need a chatbot. I have an English degree. I can write my own emails.

Anyway. They spent the last decade telling us STEM degrees were the future and the Humanities were worthless then they spent hundreds of billions of dollars to build a glitchy Humanities robot.

sorry lmao at how blurry this is but it's time to make my mom watch this movie as it is our Christmas tradition

Heated Rivalry is a Crave production, from Canada. HBO is just a distributor. I really wish people would stop attributing anything in the production of this show to HBO.

like... Flint .... buddy

I like the label maker I got my mom so much that I'm going to get one for myself I think

today we went to the library and my mom got to meet our favorite neighborhood dog (an elderly pug named Sky) and aside from that Flint has been sleeping on my mom all day

john waters' 1995 christmas card with steve buscemi as him

this is a hand-embroidered apron some ex-girlfriend of my dads from the 60s made for him when he was briefly trying to learn to bake his own bread, that's supposed to be him chasing a coy and winged loaf that is absconding. actually a fairly good likeness

The organized astroturfing and financing of these extreme ideologies is one of the key stories of our time

My mom is visiting us and surprise the cats LOVE her

over 30 selfie thread. I'm 35

okay this rocks

i have spent time with bari weiss, who used to date my former roommate and who i am in an alumni program with, and i feel comfortable saying she is both stupid and evil

I think about this basically every day (Joseph Weizenbaum, Computer Power and Human Reason, 1976) I will keep posting Weizenbaum quotes until conditions improve

my mom's train is Delayed ™️ so technically we have a little more time to make the home presentable for her arrival but i'm also fussing

every wiki article about classic UK comedy like "Father and Sons was a comedy duo comprised of Reg Father and Tommy Sons, who appeared on a record breaking 18,450 episodes of The Light Applause Hour. Reg Father died in 1988 of Cigarette Fever. Tommy Sons remains alive in prison since 1997"

If you know who is sending out the takedown notices at or for CBS tonight, let me know! Signal: crg.32

I don’t mean to sound extreme, but I don’t think we should have torture camps for people with criminal records either.

If you pay attention to any large industry long enough and follow it to its logical conclusion you eventually end up sounding like a communist even if you started off testing CPU case fans. youtu.be/cUrJVdF2me0?...

This to me is the biggest issue. These men spoke at grave risks to their own safety about being beaten, raped, and tortured at the order of the President of the United States. All of Weiss's odes to free speech and "dangerous ideas" is and has always been horseshit

give them all gigantic raises

I see people hoping HBO or a US company takes over Heated Rivalry next season so it has a bigger budget & is Emmy-eligible, so I’d like to emphasize Jacob Tierney’s answer re: what would have happened if it had been made by a US company, based on what was said to him when he was pitching it.

somehow, Post Captain precedes the 1973 play La Cage aux Folles

Refinishing the last room that had gross carpet in it before my mom gets here - look at how they mistreated this beautiful floor

objectivity isn't a real and it is actually probably normal to have a bias about something that, based on your actual experience, is making your life and the lives of those around you appreciably worse

Looks like they're right. Data Set 1 / Photo 468, the image from yesterday's Epstein files release that included photos of Trump in a drawer, was removed.

sorry I'm hung up on this idea that queer experience has been totally atomized and gamified. someone is always rattling the collection tin and demanding our identities in indelible ink. you can't have the story unless you say what the story Means. people don't wanna engage with text

okay but like in Post Captain when Jack takes command of the Lively and invites Stephen to sail with him as his personal guest and Stephen shows up drunk, in a brown robe, with 60,000 bees

It's your birthday, Duane.

alright ain't nobody gonna top this christmas card

how is he real

"Do you think that this show, moving forward, has any duty to engage with modern gay life" This interviewer is so trashy. Like, sorry you can't fathom that some queers like sports. This person's mind would be blown if they heard about how the Madison Gay Hockey league has 350 players of all genders
