Frontal lobe status: Just tried to vape my keys

My department is hiring an associate/full professor of Early Modern/Modern Jewish History. Please apply and please share within your networks. I have been told to say we're very interested in the early early modern. Note: I am not involved in the search but am happy to answer general questions.

Totally true

It can always get worse:

IT GOT WORSE/BETTER

OH MY GOD

We have decided that this conversation is Booster Gold trying to impress Cassandra Cain

Okay this part was when I lost it

The girl is now talking about how when she was a girl scout in her country she was sent out to hike and to sleep they would just knock on doors and ask to sleep there, but that policy ended after some scouts got locked in a basement in the late 90s

Okay I am overhearing this convo simultaneously and I am glad SI is transcribing it because it is FUCKING WILD

Hey, I've got an idea Anyone got any knives lying around

Trump brought peace in the Finno-Korean Hyperwar, and honestly I gotta hand it to him for that

Oh so you guys weren't making up the "I made peace between Armenia and Cambodia" thing huh Wow Genuinely thought that one was a meme exaggeration

I've been trying to understand why this isn't generating as much fury as it should, and i think it's because there is a fundamental belief among many americans that the military can pretty much do whatever (which isn't entirely inaccurate.) that said, what the actual fuck.

YASSSS! #Barocktheorie

heading out to infiltrate the Michigan Womyn's Festival circa 1993

Lesbian sighted

It's really a golden age of being punished by our parents, teachers, politicians, and culture heroes for believing in the moral ideals that they themselves taught us

Uh huh

Good morning, Bay Area skeeters!!!!

Listening to this banger again

🎶Oh, tell me great pharaoh: Who am I? 🎶"You're just a boy from nowhere who fell out of the sky"

of all the things going on what's causing me the most stress personally is the fact that this economy is about to go belly up yet again. but i think the most serious thing is we keep murdering people randomly in the caribbean and bragging about it. that's just wildly dangerous stuff

What if I just made these all day

This is gorgeous and haunting "Creep" (Radiohead) always works better with a female vocalist It becomes transgressive and tragic, as opposed to petulant and pathetic

This is a good skeet but also Radiohead have kinda never had good politics

Sigh

Radiohead are this fascinating case, where their songs CAN inspire you to be a better citizen of the world, and it's unquestionably beautiful music, but their corpus is like a word puzzle where the secret message is "HAVE A BAD DAY"

Traditional Millennial folk standards (incomplete list): -"All-Star" -"Mr. Brightside" -"Creep" (Radiohead) -"Get Ur Freak On" -"Toxic" (Britney Spears) -"Wagon Wheel" -"I'll Be There For You" (The Rembrandts) -"Maps" -hampsterdance.wav -"Da Dip" (Freak Nasty) -"Kiss from a Rose"

I liked Radiohead better when they weren't Zionists. Back before they were good or had any successful songs

This skeet brought to you by listening to (a pirated mp3 of) Radiohead's "Go to Sleep" The fact that they're ardent Zionists despite composing all that anti-authoritarian music is just so astonishing to me But it really do be like that sometimes, with our heroes

It's really a golden age of being punished by our parents, teachers, politicians, and culture heroes for believing in the moral ideals that they themselves taught us

The CEO of Sienar Fleet Systems getting really into "The Meditations of Darth Revan" and starting a holo-cast where he discusses it with his friends

"I don't suppose you've heard The Protocols of the Learned Elders of Jedha? I wouldn't think so. It's not a story the Jedi would tell..."

"haha don't worry, it's actually an Iron Cross from the *Clone* Wars, not the Galactic Civil War — which, by the way, there are a lot of misconceptions about..."

Y'all Remember to count your blessings At least we don't live in the universe where the Game of Thrones guys got to make their proposed HBO show about the Confederacy winning the Civil War

If you put a gun to my head and forced me to pitch a "What if the South won the Civil War?" story, it would be Jake's idea below, followed by "Black insurgency takes over the collapsed Confederacy and goes to war to liberate the United States from its white supremacist government"

CIVIL WAR (2024) is fascist cinema, prove me wrong

I stand by this statement

CIVIL WAR: {depicts a bloviating president who deserves to be shot, then gratuitously rewards the audience with his unceremonious murder in the final scene} GARLAND: This isn't about contemporary politics. It's about how violence is bad

people will willingly watch old TV shows with the original commercials as it went to air over on my streams. There's interest for old media

Do I dare to rewatch PUNCH-DRUNK LOVE (2002) before I see the new PTA? I watched it in theaters (on opening night, I believe) and it both changed and terrified me Don't know if I have the spoons for that awkwardness anymore

I don't really have words for how excited I am to see ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER (2025) on Thurs

the predator in it looks like The Predators Nephew or something

🎶GO ON AND SAVE YOURSELF TAKE IT OUT ON MEEEEE

i know i shitpost about this movie a lot but i am 100% genuinely unsure what he was going for if you listen to like a single thing he says about the movie
