Watching the New Yorker doc and realizing that I've never read a New Yorker. As a magazine fan, that's fairly embarrassing.

Modern game shows feel so dystopian.

The flu this season is insane.

Tried an AI drive thru at White Castle today. It couldn’t split my crave case into cheeseburgers and hamburgers. It just turned them all into cheeseburgers and added a single hamburger to the order. 🍔 Welcome to the future.

20,000 words, 150 footnotes, 100+ timeline events = our attempt at documenting and synthesizing all the ways that the federal government has attempted to destroy access to gender-affirming care since January unbreaking.org/issues/trans...

Writers need to tell folk villain stories. I think there's truth in "politics is downstream from culture'. We need straightforward stories saying these guys kinda suck. Not the human interest pieces of let's get to know them and normalize them.

These are the people who are willing to go on the record. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/18/u...

Very punk. 🌞 youtu.be/tssTTRStvxk?...

Is there a disease that makes you dislike pizza? Cause I've not really been into it lately and it's kinda concerning.

In the US, I truly believe that the increase in anti-intellectualism and illiteracy is related to newspapers not supporting their comic sections.

“Eating the right foods in the proper quantities, 16th-century Britons believed, balanced mind and soul. So in Shakespeare’s plays, roasts, ales, and pies are not props, but clues to characters’ souls, moods, and motivations.” [atlasobscura.com]

Frozen smores poptart = great. Frozen strawberry poptart = not great.

I need to learn timing with my freaking rice cooker. My slop is finished and sitting on the stove like an idiot.

I'm at a point in my cooking life that I feel like I can glance over a recipe and get the general gist of it. Then get nervous half way through the process to check if I horribly messed it up.

I miss him. www.youtube.com/watch?v=aKLW...

If you put an 80s cartoon in front of me I've either seen it or it's vaguely familiar. I watched a lot of them in my life. But I have never heard of this one. Ever. That is wild. It feels like it could be a hoax. I hope not. Nice to have some fun mystery in the world. youtu.be/tVTlg47YL6I?...

one of my favorite things to do with extra cash around the holidays! "Transanta is a mutual aid project that connects anonymous gift-givers with trans youth who are unhoused, in foster care, or otherwise without crucial support they need to thrive." www.transanta.com

I've not had Little Caesar's in a minute. Still pretty decent. Especially for the price.

Just had three grocery store donuts and a hazelnut latter from Dutch Bros. 🍩☕ My heart is about to hit overdrive.

Things felt more futuristic 20 years ago.

Youtube tokusatsu documentaries are the gifts that keep on giving.

I’m starting to think the powerful and wealthy aren’t good people.

Living room? Putting this in my bathroom.

Is maturity wanting a Steam Machine over a Nintendo Switch 2?

Hey guys, you should try meditating. It’s not fun and can bring up a lot of shit but you know, enlightenment.

Long term meditators, how comfortable should a person be meditating? youtube.com/shorts/akwcC...

Got a zafu. Prepare for another enlightened being in the world, bros.

I'm really enjoying The Martian novel. Normally not a fan of anything in space, but I'm digging this. Quiet moments with chaos interspersed and a character that's facing it one step at a time. Very nice.

thank you for all the support; the statement from our union is now live here with some more reporting. now that this is public I can confirm that the majority of today’s layoffs were women of color. there are no longer any Black women working at Teen Vogue.

This man should win a Pulitzer for food reviews.

I have been obsessed with this song the past few weeks. Not only that it's amazing but speaks so much to our fascination with what has been. A snapshot of the past. No matter how well preserved, it's still not what it was. Strangely alluring but dead and gone. youtu.be/BFhMRvnj0n4?...

I think a lot about the chance we had at the start of COVID to finally become a more compassionate, collectivist nation, and how profoundly we were failed not only by the sociopathic greed of the ruling class but by each other. It doesn’t mean we won’t get there, but the lost opportunity haunts me.

Damn. The Martian is pretty good. It made pick up the book. The matter-of-fact approach to working out what's in front of you was well done.

I saw a tragically AI-generated version of this poster, so I have recreated a 100% human-made version for all your protest sign needs.

I could really go for a dozen tamales right about now.

Oh fuck, we getting an influx of serial killers now or is this just turning bros into alt-right podcasters?

I think a lot about internet culture and politics and where we are now. In the mix is magick. Not the Houdini shit but spiritual beliefs, practices, and symbols. These have all collided into this weird mix that is driving us all mad.

Lovely Moebius documentary. I was only familiar with bits and pieces. Mostly reprints of a few pages. The main story I've read is his Silver Surfer work which I loved. Someone print his Blueberry work for the U.S. Please. youtu.be/QWaCsteIYig?...

a key thing about vought — and all of these guys — is that they have a totally top down and hierarchical vision of the world. they believe that the cultural changes they hate can be turned off by destroying the federal government because they can’t imagine that they emerged bottom-up in society

Are you now or have ever been a frog of the city of Portland? 🐸🐸🐸

This is the future shamans and mystics dreamed of when delving into their psyches.

"even if it's AI, it's at least true" hard to overstate the damage this stuff is doing to people's brains. we're gonna be cleaning the slop out of archives for decades

Gay Frogs -> Meme Pepe the Frog -> Meme Portland Frogs -> Meme Cats are the mascot of the internet but frogs seem to be the mascot of political memes.

🗣️YOU NEED TO CARE ABOUT THIS BECAUSE IT IS A PATTERN. HE'S GUTTING THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT OF BLACK LEADERS BUT THOSE BLACK LEADERS OVERSEE PARTS OF THE GOVERNMENT THAT AFFECT YOUR DAY TO DAY. #blacksky #econsky

Worried about clarity in political writing when we have moved into an era of magical thinking.

Matt Reeves’ The Batman is kinda goofy. But in a good way.
