"we are all to blame for this" no im fine

leffen didnt kill hax but if he did i would thank him

The thing about Mamdani is that he’s a talented politician but not otherworldly or one in a billion, he’s just a competent guy with popular ideas who ran against an entitled piece of shit and to me it’s a lot more optimistic to imagine 1000 campaigns like his than to view him as a unique phenomenon

this is not "everyone is twelve" theory. this is the slightly rarer but typically much more consequential "no one knows what lawyers do" theory

It's striking that even in the defenses of Bari Weiss's broader thing no one ever says that she or her website does good work. Even the people that admire the success she's had selling lite reactionary shit to rich old guys top out at "people do seem to like it." You could defend Jake Paul that way.

i am so ready for quantum to be the next dumb buzzword the tech industry forces everyone to pretend to care about. "how are you incorporating quantum into your daily work?" i'm not but it's so refreshing you asked me a new and different stupid question

The Butlerian Jihad must have sucked for guys who just bought a new computer

In some ways this is the government now

the epstein files aren’t dropping & this isn’t a distraction from them. this is a fascist setting up the field to eliminate every point of friction that might impede an attempt to seize absolute power. quippy posts about epstein are delaying your realization of, & motivation to fight, that fact.

why are all these people such losers. holy shit.

in retrospect i think the "zombie" tv/movie craze that encouraged everyone to fantasize about how theyd murk all their neighbors, hole up in their house and eventually run into the woods , was a mistake

This is like coming out for an encore after the applause stopped

while it's fun to exaggerate and tell fibs on the computer, being 30 and being 36 is basically the same

Here's a recommendation: If you like music, you should listen to some of it. Hope this helps.

don't remind people of better albums during your bad album. *having a billion dollars makes you stupid* music edition

just affectionately thought of my recommended daily calories as "my guys"

I guess CTE is sexually transmitted???

good morning

this is why we need private accounts. private twitter was primarily for posting about just how restrained i was being

Please, take it from a Californian born and bred: you cannot trust Gavin Newsom. I don’t care if he has Good Posters working for him; he’ll sell vulnerable people down the river without blinking an eye.

The conservative movement runs on nothing but ginned up outrage bait that has a half-life of exactly one week

“If you can beat the oligarchs here…that will send a message to every community in America that real change is possible.” More of my conversation with Bernie Sanders on democracy, oligarchy and his time as Mayor.

Jeff wore a King Gizzard shirt hell yeah. he killed it. im not as familiar with Pup but they were great. also i met Mikey @thecheat.bsky.social of fourside fights fame. we almost missed the train back to tempe and my bf broke his glasses at the show. good time

joining the war on autism on the side of autism

Seriously fuck these people.

Empirically speaking, Israel is the least safe place on Earth for Jewish people today. That is just an incontrovertible fact.

donald trump is going through full brandonization at an alarming rate

I know antifa isn't a real organization because I don't get 40 texts a week from them asking for donations.

Apparently The Rapture is trending? Time to surface and oldie: No, the Rapture is not in the Bible: www.youtube.com/watch?v=mvsj...

I love how everybody says trumps really good at insults and then he’s like “I call him frowning Frank”

there's just nobody prettier in the whole world

Reminder to occasionally log off, play some games with friends, take a deep breath and focus your rage into a searing hot ball of light outside yourself that can fired at velocity towards your enemies.

I tell you what, learn a little bit about cancer and people who think you can cure cancer with diet or supplements do look very silly. This is why cancer biologists have such a hard time not being snarky.

GOD fascism is boring

I have *never* used ChatGPT. Not once. I’m not saying I’m better than you… oh fuck it, I’m better than you.

if Jimmy Kimmel's political humor is too hot for you to handle, I'm not sure "snowflake" even cuts it as a term of derision for the level of fragility you've achieved

the kimmel thing is bad but as long as they arent rounding people up indiscriminately based on race, building concentration camps and talking about eradicating those they deem sexual deviants, i think we’ll be ok

I like to think that, maybe just a little bit, all these republican weirdos saw in real time that no one will mourn their deaths and got sad. It's like accidentally witnessing your own funeral.

charlie kirk was legit SO ugly
