glad people are still observing the old ways of making goofy weird shit

woke up in the middle of the night with the phrase "when you pee in the dream...you pee in real life" in my head like an 80s horror movie trailer

This is George in December in Okinawa. I don't know how this boy is going to survive a real winter once he moves to Wodonga.

They say imitation crab is the sincerest form of crab

That time of year again!

Was talking to a kid and she’d never heard of cooties. What a lucky generation. All those cooties shots worked.

it's always funny how Australian's shorten everything by adding a Y sound to the end Woolworth's -> Woolies Sandwich -> Sarnie Tradesperson -> Tradie Koala bear - > 'wallaby

if valve teamed up with kojima productions they would be making hideo gabes

Extremely funny to call the pope “holier-than-thou”

When I first read this I thought it said "and I'm a DJ" and I thought it was the funniest shit ever until I reread it and cursed literacy ruined my fun

This is such a good set I just wish they'd go back and re-release their entire catalog with this ensemble. www.youtube.com/watch?v=9kqn...

there was something in my hair that night and it tried to bite fernando

CHOTINER: and when you're in water you PARTICLE MAN: don't get wet, that's right. CHOTINER: And this is because PARTICLE MAN: the water gets me instead. It becomes particle-manish CHOTINER: There's been some debate on this point. Triangle Man, for example PARTICLE MAN: I think we're done here

Frankie's always great but this is something else. "Our post-colonial choke chains are starting to break. They smash every time we tell a story that doesn't leave out the sad parts." www.youtube.com/watch?v=5XM8...

Yesterday the realtor we brought in to sell our Okinawa house told us he used AI to get an estimate of how much we should sell the house for and I wanted to chase him out with a broom, like a bird that somehow got into the house.

The full spiked 60 Minutes CECOT package, clean & subtitled. 1/5

The 60 Minutes segment on CECOT has been posted to the Internet Archive, in case you want to see what the administration is suppressing.

Finally got around to watching the trailer for the new Animal Farm movie and it is quite an accomplishment to get this many talented people together to make the worst movie of their careers.

Thought Slime is worth watching as always, but in particular the line "There's no such thing as being nice, because if there was, I would have to be nice" really explains a lot.

knew i shouldn’t have eaten that gas station snushi

Sitting at the Yomitan village office while my wife tries to get paperwork done and there’s a lady sitting next to us who has a canvas shopping bag that just says BE ASS

just what everyone wants in a troubled economy: a check that goes to someone else

I am pregaming my upcoming month of holiday by ending every email with “and don’t forget I’m fucking dead to you until January 18”.

What’s the Kalshi over/under for how many people get banned for replying to this with “second amendment”

My opinion is that there should be one big button labeled "opt out" and when you click it it should opt you out. Just in general.

Sufficiently shitty magic is indistinguishable from technology

all i'm saying is that there were better options

There is a fascinating story developing at OIST, where it has been suggested that a faculty member faked posters for an exhibition on women in science that was shown at the UN. Various socials are full of anonymous posts from other OISTers implicating very senior people. medium.com/@lina.franklin

Love it when billionaires try to instill fear about socialism by literally describing the exact system that already exists but that they're not aware of because they are too wealthy.

I just learned that Dakota Fanning's real first name is Hannah. She is named Hannah Dakota. What sort of off brand Miley shit is going on here, this can't be real.

A male rock ptarmigan (Lagopus muta) in winter plumage. Ptarmigan is from Gaelic 'tarmachan' meaning "croaker". The p- was added when people mistakenly assumed it was a Greek word. A bird forever warning people: "A werewolf!" (just in case of werewolves).

Fifteen thousand!

Man there's something about being asked for $3500 to publish an article in a journal you've been serving as a volunteer editor at for six years that's just...really special.

My 2025 Spotify Artist Wrapped is here and while I'm not doing the numbers some of y'all are, it makes me happy. I do dread the day that someone who only knows me from Hypnospace meets me in person and realizes that picture is from 35 years ago and I am now an old fat man.

Really glad that Yowie is back to posting regularly again. I love finding people who have gone absolutely wild on an instrument that I barely knew existed. www.youtube.com/watch?v=nhms...
