was reading last night about buddhist cosmology (a fun thing to do when you can't get to sleep) and the high, *high* heavens had inhabitants engaged in a liminal form of consciousness where they don't perceive anything. Anyway sounds like this guy is in one of the hells

You nostalgia freaks have to let go and move on eventually

tfw you've had issues with your old wi-fi router for years and you're finally spurred to replace it when a Lightning Strike obliterates 1/8th (0.125) the electronics in your house

the kite flying issue may be low salience, sure, but it costs you nothing to moderate on it to win back the voters we need to win the senate

new dungeon chill's fun. He mentions the Maruyama vaccine and i thought to look up more about it, and the main thing about it on English wikipedia is an entry about a position named that

minor line read in a video game that's stuck with me for no good reason: the announcer in Rock n' Roll Racing, "let the carnage begin!"

We’ve entered the period of the evening when I can’t tell whether the “it’s all over now” vagueposts are about Platner, the USMNT or McConnell.

sometimes i think about pontificating about Choosing to Not Pontificate

There's a part in the book "Careless People" where the author beats Zuck at Settlers of Catan, and he is absolutely wrecked by it. Someone pulls her aside to explain everyone else has been letting him win for years. I think about this a lot re: why tech bros think everyone will love AI chatbots.

Poe: it's about the wafers Strieber: the what Poe: communion wafers Poe: you know when you eat the body of christ in a wafer Strieber: what Kim Newman: like the tom lehrer song Strieber: what

Thinking of a beautiful woman named Mediterranea Almondjoy

when frank of all people - someone who has done more than anybody to take the high road - is telling you this, you know shit is dire. imo it's also a moral dispensation. go crazy out there folks

Sony is taking this away from us

Sony: we're low on people to lay off this quarter so we're laying off discs and the people who print them

Not to be a bitch but I think we're living through the natural result of what the Founders intended, which is a democracy based around white male property ownership

Damn girl, are you the moon? Because you're beautiful and mysterious and hostile to all forms of life

one of Emmett Rensin’s previous articles with the LA Review of Books was about our 2009-2012 relationship, a text which gives an unbearably misleading sense of those years. he had me give him notes on it, and my first one was, glibly, “you left out the time you threatened to hit me with your car”.

The Supreme Court Gives Donald Trump Full Control Over the Executive Branch, Except the Part of It that Impacts Their Retirement Portfolios

idk how to put this more delicately but i hope we're all aware we can MUTE accounts, right no one is forcing you to look at specific people's posts, you can MUTE them and you won't see it, even if the mutual who loves drama reposts worth keeping in mind, since some people seem to like attention

we need more education about how the long-term punishment of Haitians is crucial to the white supremacist project a proof-point for them about why you should never rise up, how you can never be free

i do not wish the game industry a "shorter games with worse graphics made by people who are paid more to work less." i wish the game industry a "unionize and redistribute capital equitably"

good night bsky

The first step you take on the journey to "abolish the police" is the realization that we could "abolish" 2 soldiers, 4 cops, and a horse from this particular situation, and we would be fine.

I don't expect everyone to be a police abolitionist but c'mon you cannot possibly believe that we need more cops in this country

If you went to high school in the early 2000s, seeing “actually, we need MORE teenage pregnancies” is some truly darkness at noon shit.

TEMPEST ATARI 1981 (Captured at Galloping Ghost Arcade, Brookfield, IL, USA)

beyond having an analysis of the moment we're in (iow being pretentious), i'm glad i stopped caring about what was popular

Paleolithic humans: So I’ve got some good news for you. Domestication has given you a natural 20 in charisma with lots of points to spread out amongst intelligence, dexterity, strength, and constitution! Proto-dogs: Cool. What about wisdom? Paleolithic humans: OK so lemme tell you about dump stats

honestly the only thing musk's growing wealth has shown me is that money is fake. Bona fide real world example of Marx talking about money concealing a social relation. His wealth doesn't represent value as most people understand it.

u r invited 2 join my secret club

And here we go. Already Ive been tricked into sending my penis to three of these so called "Group chats". I now have no choice but to shut down my alt where I pretend to be a 36 yr old Sex Worker from Brooklyn, offering my calloused, world weary perspective interspersed with moments of gentle warmth

blue sky used to be a community. now every ones off in their own little private rooms talking trash & posting nasty pics. Hate to be the one to say it but group chat culture has made this web site a bastard's website

Humble in Famous Times grassyvalley.thecomi...

A THREAD, which I have decided to call 'Bloody Hell, Aren't Doors On Old Walls Fucking Brilliant?' You will find the all-important captions to each photo in the alt text.

Playing on their turf never ever wins, not morally, not politically. Here's a response: "this is a wedge issue targeting kids, getting into their doctors' decisions. Next, they'll come for your hysterectomy, your vasectomy. And it's because they can't talk about the economy." Say Fuck You back

hmm
