"If we improve the lives of current American citizens, we risk the perception that this is a good country. Then people would want to live here. We’d be right back where we started: needing to spend all our taxpayer dollars deporting beloved community members."

I want to laugh at it but sadly it’s true.

Only 24 hours left to get Sol Cesto at its current price + 25% off. After the sale, the price will increase permanently by €2 (to €13.99)! Just wanted to make sure everyone knows 🌞

Remember to cook thoroughly before eating the rich. While well fed, the meat has a higher risk of infectious pathogens.

How you doing today? You okay? It was a rough one for a lot of us. There's nothing wrong with you if you're anxious, angry, depressed, or just confused. There's no reason you should be good at this. This is not in any way normal or acceptable. Be as kind to yourself as you can

Intellectually, I know tysm is "thank you so much", but when I read it all I see is "genderqueer autism".

People saying that FIFA giving Trump a "Peace Prize" has become more and more embarrassing... honestly, I think it's become less. It's increasingly obvious that Trump will fuck up anyone who doesn't grovel to him, you don't get mad at a shopkeeper for getting shaken down by the mob

You can't embarrass me, I'm a 45 year old who plays Minecraft with a modpack that adds Pokémon

Kudos to photographer Daniel Torok for capturing Trump making such an epically memeable face for posterity. I've taken the liberty of removing the unearned Nobel prize from the picture, so if anyone would like to use this as a template, feel free. I'll throw some examples in the replies.

It's very helpful to think of what's happening in Minnesota as one gigantic content creation operation. I really hate it. That being said, I'm glad to see media covering the fact that this regime is basically just focused on making content to titillate Nazis: www.npr.org/2026/01/16/n...

Inside every man, there are two wolves. Inside each wolf, there are three badgers. Shockingly enough, the badgers have each managed to swallow seven kangaroos. Every prime numbered kangaroo holds a quantity of math professors equal to the cube root of the sum of the number of feet contained...

Over/under on the regime trying to cancel tax returns to people living in sanctuary cities?

Post a game you remember playing that nobody else remembers.🎮

Shout out to the homeless guy who yelled "you look you play synthesizers" at me today. Someday I'll be as cool as you think I am.

This morning the FBI raided the home of a journalist reporting on the Trump administration. Pissant dictator shit. archive.is/C4wIA

I'm enjoying Katabasis, by R.F. Kuang, but there's something about the language and the cadence that means if I'm the tiniest bit eepy, I'll start to nod off while reading it.

Has anyone proposed the nickname "Gelato Gestapo" yet?

We are living in dangerous times.

The brothers Gibb really missed out by not putting out a Halloween album called HeeBeeGeeBies.

I hate it, but there is a non-zero chance that overthrowing Venezuela's government wasn't about distracting from the Epstein files, but entirely about trying to "earn" the Nobel Peace Prize from Machado. Like some kind of demented, Cheeto-stained Trix rabbit.

You “don’t like to get political”? Ignoring the kidnapping and murder of your neighbors is, in fact, a political act.

Good morning ☀️

"Extraditing" a foreign leader under the guise of a police action is a wild precedent for a country run by a sex offender with ties to a pedophilic sex trafficking ring centered on a place colloquially called "Rape Island" to take...

Santa knows what I want and I can’t write it on the internet without getting arrested.

Almost forgot about White Wine in the Sun, by Tim Minchin, but gave it a listen this morning. Nearly bawled my eyes out. It's a beautiful song, but maybe a bit too much after losing my Mom earlier this year. But the message is still beautiful. youtu.be/fCNvZqpa-7Q?...

I uploaded an experimental, rules ultralight RPGish thing on itch.io. It's a simple little thing, but hopefully it's the start of me putting out more creative input over the coming year. gamethng.itch.io/wmd-a-one-pa...

If the piece on CECOT was seen in Canada but not here, that should tell you we have already lost freedom of the press and are in a fascist nation already.

I've found a list of "Words That Don't Exist But Probably Should" that I started writing a while back. Apparently I didn't include definitions, and now I have a fun little game to play with myself.

If Taylor Swift can write a (bad) song about Travis Kelce's massive donger and not get kicked out of the artistic community, then guess what: that project you think is too niche and only you are gonna care about? Still valid. Get freaky with it.

My new rubric for judging fonts is the strength and character of the Batman within the capital M.

Most white men just start a podcast when they feel the urge to ramble about nothing, but sure, go off I guess.

“Of course, it doesn’t feel right to want IT to HAPPEN. And it’s obviously not okay to try to make IT HAPPEN. That’s not what this is ABOUT, just to make things CLEAR LEGALLY as far as VARIOUS AGENCIES are concerned.” www.mcsweeneys.net/articles/whe...

In the process of switching from OneNote to Obsidian for all of my various projects. Still figuring out what all I can do with it, but my god does it feel like I've been handed a loaded gun without any kind of supervision.

My eyesight is good enough to read without my glasses, but not good enough to notice when my phone thinks I swiped the wrong word.

Nobody ever makes something perfect on their first try. That's why I'm the sixth kid my folks had.

Tea tag notes be kind to others, but always be compassionate to yourself.

How late in the day does vacuuming go from being "a reasonable thing to do" to psychopathy?
