you shouldn’t learn about bands from shady TikTok manipulation, you should learn about bands by hanging out with a girl you like but are also extremely afraid of

I hate Google for making me turn off all smart features if I want Gemini to stop suggesting writing at every turn. What do you mean you won’t add calendar events unless I take your shitty email and word doc suggestions

If you're also feeling especially emotional or fragile today, get your eyes misty for this good doggo and the people who still bring them sticks.

Yeah so he is just going to keep doing the thing where we are in a constant state of uncertainty, confusion, stress, and tension because that is what abusive people do and the people who are in a position to address this are asleep at the switch.

Just because a President announces he’s agreed to a two week ceasefire moments before he threatened to commit war crimes, does not mean he is suddenly fit to serve.

Call me radical leftist scum, but I don’t think billionaires should exist. If you can’t live with $99,999,999.99, then you’re just going to have to tighten your belt. Every dollar over that amount should go directly to a community fund for healthcare, housing, and education.

I regularly see people wondering how it's possible that there are so many musicians and writers and film makers and artists from a tiny nation like Iceland. And the answer is really simple: State funding for art education and artists. I literally get a salary from the government to write books.

By who? Who shot the person dead? You saw the video. We all know a federal agent shot a man dead who was prone on the ground. Also, it's not "according to officials." It's according to verified video seen with your eyes. Not saying what anyone can obviously see with their eyes is a form of lying.
