The reasoning seems to be that it's a plot to raise his approval ratings but by now I think everyone knows that does not work lol

And above all, you let life defeat you. All the gifts your parents gave you, all the love and patience of your friends, you drowned in a neurotoxin. You let misery win. And it will keep on winning till you die -- or overcome it.

second-worst news of the day

After watching roughly three hours of youtube videos about beast games it is so funny that this week's taskmaster almost literally had a "what if one of the beast games was good" task

Fanfest 2026

I may as well reshare it myself 😇

Smoke break on the set of "The Empire Strikes Back."

looked very cute while putting a shelter kitten in a headlock today

kudos to kotaku for running maybe the flattest of flat-affect mr. beast photos, you can put anything over it and have it work

i dislike being made to see the mr beast face. how his grin never reaches his sad eyes unnerves me

should i buzz him in?

They’re attaching Incorrect Quotes to your favourite character. They’re sanding down their edges to make it appropriate for fandom or child to consume without choking.

This is an extraordinary, searing interview. In the context of the repulsive new Jackson biopic, it raises questions about why so many people just don’t want to know what he did. FWIW I saw Leaving Neverland before HBO pulled it, and I absolutely believe those kids.

My boss wants to "reward" us by taking us out to dinner, but all that does for me is add several hours to my day where I have to eat probably mediocre food in a loud restaurant while I have to keep pretending to be a Normal Coworker. Just let me go home, it's all the reward I need.

growing up with very religious parents and little exposure to culture made me weird in many ways. but it also blessed me with the power of Absolutely No Attachment to Michael Jackson, Elvis or The Beatles.

it will never not be funny how they thought bsky was going to be a google campus and instead they got tumblr and they absolutely h a t e it

Ahahahahaha what do you mean the TECHNICAL ADVISOR to Bluesky just blocked over 300k users by following an ANTI-AI, AI HATERS blocklist. Embarassing.

me when I'm paid to be a technical advisor on a platform with millions of active users

i think it's just my algorithms since i interact w feminist content and this stuff often cloaks itself in that philosophy, but the fatalistic gender essentialism being fed to young women on social media rn is SO bleak

[cocks gun] you've read your last free article

Rather than focus on today’s heavy rainstorm, we prefer to recall (a few days ago!) when our skunk, Tux, was enjoying the sunshine! 🦨🌞☀️

Conservatives have a perception of men completely more demented and sexist than any strawman feminist grifters could ever think off

don't post about this much anymore, but i have not had a cutting relapse in a very long time AND i just got through a full week of eating two full meals a day! by "not dying" and "eating enough food for my body," i'm finally on the functional level of your average plankton, bacterium, worm, etc.

Palantir doing supervillain monologuing sure does, deliberately or not, distract from its actual business being almost extravagantly boring:

I think about this all the time

lee cronin pitching lee cronin's the mummy: okay, so it's a movie about an ancient egyptian curse. it's set mostly in albuquerque and the titular mummy is an eight-year-old white girl. i would rather skin myself with a cheese grater than learn anything about egyptian mythology.

delighted to inform you guys that 3,300 years ago, during the reign of pharaoh thutmose iv, a scribe named nebqed drew this extremely adorable picture of ammit, the monster-goddess who eats the hearts of the unrighteous dead.

and popcorn's photo op was much shorter because she bit straight into hers like the tootsie pop owl

It's true that a person's writing is likely to resemble their reading, but I can't imagine anyone who actually cares about being a good writer allowing AI to become the majority of their reading. Even by accident.

it’s really sad and confusing to watch the fandom attempt to make The Pitt into something more complicated than what it is and what it, in fact, needs to be: a simple way for Noah Wyle to deliver to me secret messages containing the instructions for my missions

the basic theory of DOGE was that if powerful people said it was fine it didn’t matter what the law said. I think proving that theory wrong is worth significant effort

i was worried olive wouldn't like her new treats.
