pretty conclusive proof that earth is a flat disc

there are two absolutely canonical Good Friday posts

this is peak "you will never guess where it goes in the next sentence"

I suspect the reason for this is because much of the code we write is boilerplate, and thus very tedious and repetitive, and these tech people assume it's the same for writing anything

It's annoying that we already had so many existing problems to solve before these assholes created a bunch of new ones for no reason

more like Pam Gondi

no one on the planet, especially my spouse, wants to see me trying to dance to Radiohead's "Bodysnatchers" and yet no one can stop me

Was watching a video essay on the Cinemastix yt channel and the guy quoted @labuzamovies.com and I thought hey I sort of know that guy

It'd be confusing if it happened today

The Supreme Court did not strike down conversion therapy bans today. Not nationwide. Not in Colorado. Not anywhere. Here's what actually happened in Chiles v. Salazar—and why the coverage you're seeing serves the conservative legal movement more than it serves you.

let trans kids alone you monsters. it's hard enough to be a kid in this world even without having those closest to you telling you aren't who you know yourself to be and hiring some 'therapist' to make you feel bad about who you are

It's really incredible how strongly The Beatles come out of the gate on Revolver. "Taxman" absolutely slaps what with that all-time base line, and then they almost completely change directions on "Eleanor Rigby", one of their most beautiful compositions.

It's not free if you have to watch ads

I'd wear it even if it was several sizes too small

Next we need to figure out how to keep the frog from bumping his butt while hoping

She did however teach you to type without getting so many bugs on your windshield you can't see where you're going

the trick is to capture the cold air from the dawn/morning in the house so that AC doesn't have to work as hard in the afternoon/evening

Official statement re: Dan Bongino

the human body was not designed to know what the worst person in the world is doing every fifteen minutes

what you've heard (if you've heard anything) about The Lowdown is true--it's great. Makes me love E.Hawke even more

First, the good news. The bathwater has been disposed of.

Uh oh.

"I've got a contractor at my door" is the modern, WFH version of "I've got to drop something at the printers"

the GOAT knew pure cinema when he saw it

Cell phone batteries should be the size of EV batteries that way you only have to charge them once in your lifetime

This is really good, very generous and honest assessment of a tricky artist. I think Tom successfully argues that Korine is much more than a juvenile provocateur

Jeff Daniels's character in Terms of Endearment is named Flap?

for no reason I can articulate I'm not interested in seeing that movie

Do you struggle when making Italian cuisine? follow my channel where I can help you turn your oregano into an orega-yes

This reminds me of one the greatest endings I've ever seen youtu.be/0WzmQmz9Kdc?...

probably gonna watch a movie tonight

me: if I do this one thing I'll feel better <I do the one thing> me: I don't feel any different

Buffalo Wild Wangs

let's not insult 12 year olds by calling him one

That opening scene is so good. Builds off the banal horror of the violence in the body of a dead man being abandoned and eaten by dogs, to the tension and horror of a routine “search” by state agents. Reminded me so much of going through checkpoints in Nigeria, where you often bribe your way out.

Finished reading Middlemarch. Good book.

More and more I'm thinking it's a blessing to live in obscurity

As DL Mayfield and many others have pointed out, this type of logic-- that exposing abuse by those in power will ruin the movement-- is used explicitly by high control religious groups to silence people. It's why those groups are a magnet for predators

So what we’re gonna do is push to re-name all the Cesar Chavez schools and roads after Dolores Huerta. Call your city council people.

Jon Bois @jonbois.bsky.social i ate some raisins | | View full thread | LinuxGlen @linuxglen.bsky.social I didn't say Daniel Tiger was feudalist. I said *the Neighborhood of Make-Believe* is clearly aligned with paleofeudalist thought. | Neil Media @neilmedia.bsky.social You're still accountable.

He's bald because he's spent most of his life with his head up his ass

Late civil rights icon Cesar Chavez accused of sexually abusing young girls in the movement for years Dolores Huerta also discloses for first time that that Chavez raped her. Gift link:

Made gumbo for dinner, took me only 2 hours
