do yourself a favor and read a book from before they had television

few things give me more joy than my kid using his deepest voice to randomly say "yes, queen, yes!" and then his highest voice to shout "let's roll!", which he just did about sixteen times in a row. I am in pain from laughing.

Y’ever wonder why people are looking at you weird and realize it’s because you’re wearing a meat thermometer behind your ear

I don’t consider myself an expert at asking for help, but I’m out here asking all the same: My car is in need of critical repairs at the worst possible time and I just don’t have the money for it. If anyone out there has any change to spare, your help is so appreciated gofund.me/75670e806

I maintain that the Gone Girl soundtrack is among the best background noise options for studying

This is the cloud of oil currently hovering over Tehran, released when the US bombed the city's oil depots. A stew of particulate matter, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, benzene, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, heavy metals & volatile organic compounds is raining down into the city right now. 1/2

i hate passive aggressiveness as much as the next guy but sometimes the issue is less that the person is being passive aggressive and more that the target of the behavior is being fucking dense

I'm so fucking angry that we threw gasoline onto an already burning planet for the sake of having dumb empty ugly plasticky videos of vegetables yelling at each other.

Take a blacklight to the place three weeks from now I fucking dare you

I want a sequel to Sense and Sensibility that follows Margaret when she grows up to be a lesbian trying to be the first to circumnavigate the globe on land

sent a message to my professor with a question. got a blank reply. messaged back that the reply had no content. professor just replies "oops, it was supposed to say thank you". hey. for WHAT.

idk i just especially don't think documentaries should use AI for any reason whatsoever, personally

In England they call him Naughty Rabbit

*sighs* it's literally been one day

in an era when carnivore diet influencers are in charge of the american nuclear arsenal we have to admit the "annoying vegan" stereotype barely ever actually existed and the "all meat diet guy" is real, increasingly omnipresent, and way more annoying and inconvenient to actually be around

I'm not kidding when I say this should be illegal, even if it weren't also a transparent scam on this idiot's part.

Christ this is chilling they really do think it's like omniscient???????????????

One anecdote: so much cash has been withdrawn from Minneapolis banks to help families in hiding meet February rent that there is no hard cash left in the system. The city banks are out of dollars

This is what one afternoon drop looks like for one (1) Minneapolis mutual aid distributor (read: random mom who wants to help families at her kids’ schools)

Fascinating how every time I’m like “hey AI is choking the planet and destroying lives and ruining the population’s ability to string a thought together, so knock it off” someone gets in the comments to tell me they’re the exception since they only use chatGPT because of their ADHD

The Steam Machine has been delayed because stupid little babies can't stop using AI to write their emails: aftermath.site/steam-machine-...

some times it feels like my head is permanently affixed to my desk

This is another effort that has taken a HUGE amount of local activism, led by community folks who care. It CAN be done. Get involved where you live and push back. www.elpasotimes.com/story/news/i...

this is about billionaires

every time a NETFLIX PRODUCTION is kicked off Netflix we should be allowed to push a Netflix executive into a volcano

gaiman declaring that the accusations are just a smear campaign is so embarrassingly predictable for someone who made a career on being wildly imaginative

Like any self-respecting Bond villain jkr of course has a super yacht

As soon as I get my spine straightened out and my hips stop dislocating and I can feel my left shoulder again it’s over for at least one hoe

I’m perpetually three years too late for everything I try to do but damn if I’m not running real fast to catch up

absolutely begging people to STOP. BUYING. DOORBELL. CAMERAS. your piddling little fears about "porch pirates" & strangers passing by on the street are being leveraged to build the last mile of a total surveillance panopticon

spending my NYE arguing in a tiktok comment section that Mad Men is about women

watched Cold Mountain for the first time while my mom and I were in Asheville this weekend. Felt thematically appropriate. Also felt like I needed an emergency therapy session by the midway point. more like Real Fuckin Sad Mountain.

hey kids before you type out that comment having to do with someone's appearance, maybe consider that the woman-shaped thing on the internet has probably heard it eight thousand times before. don't. no, even if it's a potential health issue. no, even if you're a nurse. no, even if you're being nice.

ew capitalism

shoutout to all my professors for their all-caps bolded NO ACCEPTABLE USE OF AI reminders on every assignment

PBS Kids really is killing the captions game. Tone indicators! Stage directions! Words written out in ways that reflect the way they’re said (like “greeeeeen” instead of “green”)! IF PBS CAN DO IT WITH SIX DOLLARS AND A DREAM I DONT WANNA HEAR A DAMN THING FROM OTHER STREAMING SERVICES!

Tomorrow's episode of HEMOPHOBIA features @wickedinterest.ing and @dustinparsonsaudio.bsky.social talking about wanting to fuck SpongeBob I Am not Joking

Boromir took three arrows and kept on fighting until he bled out. I slept a little funny on my shoulder last night and decided it hurt too much to vacuum.

woke up at 4:30 AM to find my son eating minced garlic out of the Costco jar with a spoon, so any vampires better look out

finding out that my library has jigsaw puzzles is maybe the best news I’ve had in a while

No bread and nobody can afford to go to the circus anymore and the circus they keep demanding we go to sucks and isn't fun

Okay so the current economic plan for the United states seems to be fire everyone, cut off people's access to food, sink an entire gdp of funding into the "fire everyone" technology that literally can not work as the creators intended, and to do all of this right before the holidays huh. Alright.
