I'm not trying to be mean to soccer I know it's the most popular sport of all time but what I'm watching now, is this an example of the sport being played well or...

Sony is taking this away from us

I don't want to see a traditionally handsome dude in pro wrestling. I want guys that look like King Kong Bundy, the kind of person who appears as if his mother saw him and said "Fittingly, we shall name him 'King Kong Bundy.'"

I really think that spending too much of your online time looking at people that are dumber and wronger than you (to make fun of them or express outrage at them or whatever) does really bad things to your perception of yourself

If Rs win in 2028 and replace Sotomayor, it's gone. I don't know why a bloc of left-wing voters convince themselves "the court shouldn't matter, you can't blackmail me" but that happens every decade and a half for some reason

The court strikes down President Trump's executive order on birthright citizenship, holding that children born in the U.S. to parents unlawfully or temporarily present are “subject to the jurisdiction” of the U.S. and are citizens at birth. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...

The first opinions are in the transgender athlete cases. In B.P.J., the court holds Title IX allows schools to provide separate women’s and men’s teams defined by biological sex, and WV has permissibly maintained female sports for biological females.

when it zoomed out I gasped

Where are all these modern mainstream movies with a bunch of gratuitous sex that people are wringing their hands over, asking for recreational purposes.

There he is

🚨VICTORY: Supreme Court holds that federal Election Day statutes do not prevent Mississippi from counting absentee ballots postmarked by Election Day but received afterwards A huge victory for our clients and the Elias Law Group team. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

It's ridiculous how fans complain that House of the Dragon takes so long between seasons. Uh, guys, you do realize that before they can shoot a new season the actors have to take time to grow out their hair, right?

perhaps we simply should not have created a bunch of social economies powered by abuse and contempt, requiring the constant manufacturing of new targets to keep the engine running

Sherlock Holmes: Moriarty, my one intellectual equal Moriarty: Holmes, my one nemesis, for you alone can match my genius Sherlock Holmes: let us settle this great game, this contest of wills, in the only way it is appropriate *two drunks kick each other in the stomach by a waterfall*

9 years ago, NBC gave this woman $20 million a year to host a morning talk show and be one of the top faces of its news division.

I wrote about the continued appeal of dirtbag politics, from the left to liberals, and how only a politics of grace and edification can save our liberal democracy Dirtbagism delenda est www.liberalcurrents.com/the-dirtbags...

No joke, when I was a kid my dad was helping me with a science project and brought up the concept of safety factor/margin and it really stuck with me and shaped how I look at things and I really think a lot of basic engineering concepts are good for kids to have in mind for just regular life stuff

And PAGER is up. Very likely more than 1,000 dead from this earthquake and likely in the 10,000 range. Damage estimates in the $10+ billion range, 2% to 20% of Venezuela's GDP. Shit.

Hey remember that big viral story about how the winner and the three winners of a literary contest were suspected of using AI? Well judges concluded no, they didn't. share.google/PgNRLUZawWXf...

An outsider observing our pop culture would immediately come to the conclusion that robot worship was the world’s most popular religion. But... why? jasonpargin.substack.com/p/everyone-i...

You can get like 7 bucks off the hardcover of the upcoming book (or somebody else's book, if you think mine looks dumb) if you preorder it through Barnes and Noble, just enter PREORDER25 in the discount code box at checkout. Sale ends June 26: bit.ly/bncrabs

Today's comic book image:

So far this is the most preordered book in the JDATE series, which may not sound like much of an accomplishment but please remember the context which is that nobody reads books anymore. If you want a SIGNED hardcover, you can only get one by preordering at bit.ly/signmycrab

yeah unfortunately the point at which security agents started manufacturing crimes to so they could arrest people to support the delusions of a single personalist ruler was the point at which the story stopped being silly heavy-handed metaphor and started being of real concern

The dragon effects are truly incredible. Also I have no memory of who these fucking people are

Morine

I love this kid vomiting up FIFA

Shocked to find out House of the Dragon comes back tomorrow, I can't remember seeing less talk/buzz/anticipation for a Game of Thrones thing. I only found out about it because of a banner ad

I took one look at that man’s hair and decided to trust everything he had to say about pool and pool related products

ADDRESSING THE CONTROVERSY RE: PREORDERS: As I have made clear, certain features of my upcoming novel, including most of the symbolism, themes and character arcs, are ONLY AVAILABLE IN THE PREORDER PLATINUM EDITION. The standard edition lacks those features and adds the Rizzler as a main character.

Are we doomed? I did an interview with the Are We Doomed podcast on the NPR network to talk about optimism for the future and why people online have such a weirdly negative reaction to it: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

@seanbaby.bsky.social, @brockway.bsky.social, and @jasonkpargin.bsky.social close out another season of Mountain Monsters today on our YouTube Channel. youtu.be/2R0VRaBixsw

And I’ll just add that MST3K could not be made today, either. Okay, admittedly, you probably could make it today, and now that I think of it, we ARE making new episodes today, and they’re coming soon, but I wanna be an old guy complaining about shit, too!

BREAKING: Pakistan's prime minister says Iran and the U.S. have reached a peace deal.

One of the most grating behaviors on social media is people that nobody wants to talk to anyway having strict rules in their bio for how people should talk to them
