me: i need this treatment my doctor: he needs this treatment the anonymous doctor who lost his license for fondling unconscious patients that anthem decided to hire for prior authorization reviews: erm, methinks not

If you told a Junker he was interchangeable with a Bavarian he would kill you and everyone would say you had it coming

I love how in the US you'll receive phone calls like "yes it will cost $1000 to keep the teeth in the bottom left half of your jaw."

Donate if you can, spend time with hobbies or loved ones, and read theory. It's the only way I've been keeping it together.

"What is fascism?"

In the 2010s, this country's elites were thrown onto social platforms with everyone else and could finally read what we all think about them and it caused them so much psychic damage that they decided to destroy both the internet and democracy to make sure nothing like it ever happened again.

I had a chat with my dad about inflation this morning that hinged on the price of Italian cold cuts and he had a grave, faraway look in his eyes like a Dust Bowl farmer kneeling down and letting the dry soil sift through his hands

The one time we got the smoking gun of undeniable ideology that mapped neatly onto american partisanship in political violence was J6, and we decided it was too scary to treat it as such, so now we return to deciphering memes of school shooters like medieval peasants panicking at an eclipse.

just because charlie kirk celebrated and enjoyed political violence doesn't mean you're allowed to

Imagine scolding people laughing at the 'it's good to die from gun violence because it gives us unfettered access to guns' guy getting got by a gun under a sign that says prove me wrong like I'm sorry grow up

the fighting game girl of the day is justice ♡ guilty gear

the only tournament i've ever placed in was an online exhibition series organized out of puerto rico. it was skullgirls solo-only and i was the only person who actually played a solo regularly. i fought six Big Bands in a row. we raised a couple thousand bucks for LGBTQ+ charities lol

I didn't restart my weeklies in the university food court after lockdown was lifted just to be told that we need Saudi blood money to have a community. Fuck that shit.

Hey Firefox users.

if you are ever tempted to write off the residents of a "red" (i.e., gerrymandered) state and say "set them adrift, let them secede, they deserve what they voted for", you are missing all the thousands of stories like this where the human beings in those states are pushing back every single day

sadly amazon remains vital to a book’s success so imagine my surprise to look at my book listing and see it not only under a HP ad (holy shit) but the digital and paperback versions are GONE AS ARE 78 CORRESPONDING 5-STAR REVIEWS

had the idea of collecting the most ominous or threatening images of MrBeast but fear nothing can top this

Niemöller was asked by his concentration camp cellmate why he had ever supported Hitler and the Nazis. Reportedly, this is what he had to say for himself:

Whitest JoJos U' Know

First recorded case of straight erasure.

when they close it all up, I do believe this will go down as the funniest video on the internet

This Trump/Epstein book business reminds me of the scene from Austin Powers where he denies owning a penis pump and all the subsequent evidence to the contrary. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yh6k...

And like it isn't reliant on the exploitation of the Global South

Shocking Video Captures Calm Police Officers Handling Situation Nonviolently

Ozzy Osbourne was an Actual working class genius whose music changed the world and made weirdos less alone. And what a singer.

The final Black Sabbath show just two weeks ago raised $190M that will be distributed between Cure Parkinson’s, Birmingham Children’s Hospital, and Acorn Children’s Hospice….incredible gifts to leave behind 🙏

Ozzy on pizza:

this is what it feels like trying to keep it together in 2025

And one final thought: Ozzy going out after giving an emotional final performance that raised a ton of money for charity is more spiritually uplifting and did more genuine good than anything any televangelist and religious grifter who railed against him ever did combined.

actually a lot of innocent people write birthday letters to child sex traffickers in which they repeatedly reference the secrets they share

His Diablo IV guy is now tweeting for him, too.

bro i saw your palette swap at the 7/11 today. yeah he was wearing red instead of white and his hair was different but he was doing all your moves. straight shooting fireballs in the parking lot. you gotta copyright your shit man

We ran a randomized controlled trial to see how much AI coding tools speed up experienced open-source developers. The results surprised us: Developers thought they were 20% faster with AI tools, but they were actually 19% slower when they had access to AI than when they didn't.

One of my favorite DF bugs was that elephants were doomed. They could only eat leaves which had very little energy, so little that even if they did nothing but eat they would start starving. The hungrier they got, the slower they ate so they would starve to death despite several days of bingeing.

I saw an infographic a couple years ago about how to remove source identifiers from links and why it's important, but I can't find it again and too many people I know are sending me links with them so here's an infographic straight from the oven

It is hard to grasp but large masses of Americans are both racist/xenophobic AND not racist/xenophobic enough to applaud what Trump is doing. It's goldilocks shit, they want a level of racism/xenophobia calibrated exactly to their personal preferences, and you just can't make that policy. Don't try.

[worst possible stuff happening everywhere] man why do I feel bad

Excelente

I don't think there are going to be midterm elections but I really hope I'm wrong. Despite that, all of this is logically sound and can help take the edge off the despair.
