This Iran conflict is certainly raising interesting questions like “what comes after tragedy and farce”

it used to be, if a prominent academic annoyed you for some reason, you had to look up their ratemyprofessor reviews to feel good about how they're a bad person. but now, you can just check the epstein files

New pope is going to canonize Caleb Williams

I need a good world news podcast that focuses on (or at least substantially includes) non-American and European news. Any suggestions?

Big news for emo fans

Something in my life has to go right eventually, right?

Watching Martyrs on Pluto and there’s something pretty funny about watching a woman get her head caved in and cutting straight to a laundry detergent commercial

I didn’t realize this was in response to a reply asking if they had banned Jessie Signal. Fuck this guy and fuck Signal too.

6 years on HRT. Hasn’t been an easy time, but I love my life in a way I never would have been able to before.

Finding out cat dander can stay airborne for 6 months or longer even after the cat is removed. Maybe I should just kill myself.

Life might not be going amazingly well but I have wonderful friends and it’s raining outside and I’m putting on spooky stories to fall asleep to and that’s enough right now

I’ve been training my whole life for this moment

I don’t think the description here is very apt (there is no reality outside of symbolic exchange for Baudrillard) but I do think he’s actually very good at describing the current moment to a certain degree because he’s a deeply conservative thinker himself. Someone should write in this!

The biggest I know that ain’t who I think that is ever

Why are there ads on my paid Spotify?

I think I’m going to go to a horror film festival in Chicago at the end of the month and I’m pretty pumped

Nothing may be going right in the world, but at least my personal life is also in shambles

Wait did everyone know that John McDowell went to school in Rhodesia? Am I the last one finding this out? I mean I don’t know the guy so I can’t say anything about him but it just feels weird to know that a famous living philosopher matriculated in fucking Rhodesia. That’s crazy!

The only thing scary about this place is the fact that this branch is right next to a police station.

I developed a severe skin allergy to my cat after having her for 15 years and after trying almost everything, I think I might have to give her up. I don’t know how to handle this. I love her as much as I’ve ever loved anything, but it’s constant torture having her in my apt.

“Now” lmao

I look so hot and I got stood up! This girl missed out.

Thanks hinge but I don’t actually think I am compatible with my ex who you just recommended

One of these days, I’m going to get more than 6 hours of sleep on a work night.

Just saw a post by contrapoints where she’s apparently talking positively about Camille Paglia. Someone close to her should stage an intervention.

Got back on dating apps again and man… I’m going to be alone forever, aren’t I?

Iris Murdoch fans - where should I start with her fiction?

You can tell MKE isn’t handling 92 degree weather well because it’s 9 pm on a Saturday and a generally popular bar I’m at is almost empty. Do you know how hard it is to stop Wisconsinites from drinking? I’ve seen this bar be busier when temps were in the single digits.

'let's rewrite the entire corpus of human knowledge with advanced reasoning' uhhh sorry pal we already did that it's called the Phenomenology of Spirit and everyone agreed that it was mostly just annoying

Really big downgrade to go from 28 days later with Cillian Murphy to 28 weeks later with Jeremy Renner.

Your favorite 2000s indie band on their 2025 reunion tour

Worst part of my old phone dying is losing all of the books I saved in my notes app right when I finally have the time and energy to read more.

Leaving a job has last day of high school energy

Hobbes on the death penalty:

I'm loving getting hotter except for the fact that men are suddenly really interested in talking to me. I want to go back to them being visibly disgusted with me.

This is too funny. You can't even do normie lib stuff like be a transphobic bigot and openly support abusers anymore!

happy new Propagandhi day to everybody who loves sick ass riffs over righteous lyrics

I should not have to pay rent on my birthday.

Holy shit they're straight up saying "have you considered trans college athletes might actually be perverts?" We are so fucked.

Pretty funny that Disney presents itself as so family friendly but is also so desperate to make streaming work that it's now advertising a documentary about the Oklahoma city bombing on Disney+

3 days ago RFK Jr. told the CDC to stop recommending water fluoridation, claiming it was a neurotoxin (this is a lie). Turns out he also just eliminated the CDC’s entire Lead Program, and now lead poisoned children in Milwaukee are just on their own. Lead IS a neurotoxin and harms brain development

I still think White Lotus: Wisconsin Dells would slap so hard.

I don't really care about TDOV but I need an excuse to post this cute selfie I have no one to send to so here's me being visible and shit

Seems about right leftvalues.github.io/results.html...

Your last saved meme is your moral philosophy. Hell yeah

2024 was absolutely horrible, but slightly less bad than 2023, which was slightly less bad than 2022. At this rate, I'll have a mediocre year just in time to die of a heart attack in my 60s.

I don't know if I would call Black Dove "good" but I am really enjoying it
