California Sober? No, I’m Italian Celibate

Christopher Nolan did a remake of O BROTHER, WHERE ART THOU? that's set in Ancient Greece. (The joke is that Nolan doesn't interpret or make art, he regurgitate ideas.)

Guys. Heads up. Let’s talk about Hantavirus. There have been SEVERAL bad takes and BLATANT misinformation circulating regarding this outbreak so I figured it was a good idea to make a thread about it. Stay calm. Stay vigilant. Know your facts. Here’s ALL you need to know. 🧪🧵⬇️

New British insults just dropped

@adamdorsey.com can we get this on the box?

The media used all three names to ID assassins -- Lee Harvey Oswald, James Earl Ray, etc -- as a way to make sure innocent people with first and last names weren't mistaken for madmen. And then a new generation of Hot Take Guys started using all three names too, apparently for the same reason.

America's Corpse.

People who relocate to a suburb and say they moved to that suburb's city (or "greater [city name]") should be hit in the face with a brick.

why is Erika Kirk all over my feed dressed up like Janet Jackson in the Rhythm Nation video?

I haven’t given any $ to a Democratic campaign in years. Haven’t felt they’d know what to do with it. I could however see giving to candidates who explicitly map out how they’d destroy the Supreme Court.

I'm making scented candles. I've gone nose-blind. Chaos reigns.

This reads weird if you've lived in Seattle.

Absolute children out here telling people how they are allowed to describe their genders or sexualities. The naïveté! The audacity!

The ethics of art school have never been more hotly debated with the cost rising and the prospect of livable wages dwindling, but I keep coming back to the idea that when there are no other safe fields, you might as well learn what you want to (just try not to spend 100k on tuition)
