We're doing reverse liposuction now?

i sold my antipsychotic meds to buy my ai girlfriend a new model upgrade for christmas. but then i found out she sold her data center to buy me a gun

To all who celebrate:

MERRY CHRISTMAS FROM NANCY AND SLUGGO AND ERNIE BUSHMILLER

To me, the Christmas message is that we should care for the needy and vulnerable. I don't understand people who think it means we should smash the car windows of immigrants, tear-gas neighborhoods and zip-tie children. May federal agents lose their masks and find their souls.

christmas on bluesky

Ten thousand fucking percent. Like, I get it. I get that you're despairing. Shit is rough. But skeeting "we're so fucked" ten times a day accomplishes nothing, alleviates nothing, and contributes to learned helplessness. In all seriousness, if you feel that welling up? Log off. You need a break.

Take the W, Chicago!

My standard response is "tell me, in specific detail, how exactly I'll be 'left behind,'" and to date not a single techbro has ever answered the question. "You'll be left behind" is a statement of religious faith, not business fact, and should be treated as such.

Uhhh I think Operation More Water-Treading Bull Shit is officially a "Go," folks 😎👌

I’ve had multiple people in Seattle whip out “if you don’t like the weather here, wait five minutes.” For comparison, this is the current forecast

folks they are almost out of ai assistant names. there are not many left

You’ll never guess who else experienced ‘racism’ on the job market despite their unimpeachable academic credentials.

I forgot a key detail! 100% because I didn’t piss my pants & have a tantrum, the very same producers gave me a better job a few yrs later!! All I had to do was chill out, *MOVE ON*, not write a wounded fuckin “blog” & be patient-while-white & it all worked out LIKE IT ALWAYS DOES.

The collective delusion here is useful in that it has provoked conservatives to dispense with decades of bootstrap rhetoric and reveal what they would say if they thought black people were people, that is to say, if these things were happening to them

I’ve got to think blaming DEI is a huge boon to people trying to brush off crazy, creepy, and mediocre people. ”Gosh, sorry, Dr. Chip Moistpalms, but we can’t hire you because you’re white, good luck on your age of consent research.”

Clinically I don't think it's accurate to say that Donald Trump is struggling with dementia. Just based on observation, I'd say he's really enjoying his dementia.

When the temperatures get above freezing for a few days in Chicago you definitely see more nasty rodents around.

When Armi Grace Petersen became a mother, she quickly learned how isolating early parenthood can be. She is now determined to make sure other women do not experience those struggles alone. #occupationaltherapy

i subscribed to the red zone channel in order to hear the latest about draftkings, but i'd conservatively estimate that 75% of the broadcast has nothing to do with draftkings. they keep trying to shoehorn in all these football games. i don't like football. i don't watch football. what is this shit

I can't endorse the Trib's worshipful attitude towards the CPD here, but this is otherwise an very good summary of how dangerously amateurish these ICE goons were this fall.

There’s something doubly grating about the pious invocation of “Western civilization” by the sort of incurious dolt who wouldn’t know a Titian canvas, a Beethoven quartet, or a Socratic dialogue if whapped them upside the head.

Here’s Pete Hegseth in 2016 arguing there have to be consequences for war crimes and how the military won’t follow unlawful orders from their commander in chief. @captmarkkelly.bsky.social should just keep this on his phone and play it for the FBI agents who come to interrogate him.

I have been canceled and de-platformed for my political beliefs. Learn the full story in my feature-length essay in The Free Press, my interview on 60 Minutes, my chat/cooking demo on CBS Mornings, and my lecture series at the University of Austin.

Thank you to Olivia Nuzzi and Ryan Lizza for curing my imposter syndrome.

It wouldn't be any better in an actual Catholic majority country, but there's something extra absurd in talking this way of a country where only about 1 in 5 are Catholic, many of those only nominally so, and also a large chunk are currently the target of a mass deportation campaign.
