why do we not simply use the master’s tools to dismantle the master’s house? is this anything?

me, being the normal one who is completely and mentally stable,

everything fucking sucks but this year we've had --sinners --one battle after another --bugonia so like, at the very least a few of us can make the FUCK out of a movie. its a dying art but it isn't fuckin' dead! that feels nice.

when you don't know the music, only half the words, but you wanna sing along anyway

"for personal religious reasons, i object to giving you this medication" how did you get this job. why are you allowed to keep it.

the reason people aren't trying harder in college and cheating all the time is because this professor put in FAR more effort into her critique than the student who's paper failed, and she's on administrative leave now giving a shit is an INSANE thing to do when you see what happens to the job-doers

okay take everything that's happening right now, now pretend 90% of the country not only supports all of it but takes active measures against you if you do not support it in turn. thats what it was like in 2002. its hard to believe, but the good guys ARE winning.

look you need fundraising sometimes you kiss the snake, but you CANNOT look at the 2025 elections and think this is a winner beyond the baseline of prison camps run by masked thugs having a generally negative connotation even in the USA and that affecting shit downballot

dusty: We're in a new Gilded Age busty: We're running back the Age of Shoddy

Bill Kristol remembering the things his communist dad said around the dinner table

when fuckin BILL KRISTOL is castigating militarized authorities of the american state for playing it fast and loose with claims about an Imminent Threat necessitating armed response...

every career i wanted to be in as a kid has been turned into an exploitative nightmare, and even Just Going To College is a tacky, meaningless and expensive formality, and its all just so bleak. you could not pay me enough to be 20 years old again, today.

support our troops, folks: buy your ket, coke and molly now so you don't have to scramble during the holiday season.

man the womens' blood and guts AEW match was a little bit of a shitshow but it was a GOOD shitshow that everyone admirably improv'd and worked their way out of and everyone got great character moments out of this is.... grim

The company that cuts away at the moment of any cool impact holds a zoom on this??

jesus christ mclaren stop strategizing your fucking drivers out of podium slots a tragedy in three acts

how do they each manage to look just a little bit like Hakeem Jeffries

everyone whining about Fujimoto possibly getting inspired for one of his characters, a Soviet agent who's used and abused, from an outfit from an obscure BDSM porno should just be happy a mangaka is clearly interested in adult women

we literally just need some of the cheapest meds available to science and a fenced off area to be gay with each other until we figure out what we want from the world, it is insane how low-maintenance we are as a demographic relative to the fuss made over us

this AI shit is not gonna break me. I am still a writer and I'm still gonna write shit and it's gonna mostly be "just OK" workaday prose elevated by my little poetic flourishes but it's gonna be something only I could write. and maybe I won't even do anything with it, but it will exist

check out my new website where I list the names and addresses of everyone who has ever said something mean about me online. which doesn’t bother me by the way

i feel like this would be a really good conversation to have BEFORE bulldozing the fucking white house

i have gotten high with like seven versions of this dude and they're all Blunt Rotation Allstars

a friend 'round the way described the new Frankenstein as "the reworked story not working out" and i dont have the heart to bargue that this might actually be the most on-book Frankenstein to date, though it pretty much is.

If a company is claiming that it has built a machine that can travel through time, and the machine is actually a rock that travels through time at one second per second, they might technically be correct, but they are actually lying. That's why they're calling it AI, to mislead people.

recession indicator

everyone comes in for a huge party where we all say either cowboy bebop, flcl, dbz, or death note

hollywood and the american media class in general has done things like this more than once, cyclically, for nearly a century. not just rehabbing abusers exactly but fighting against ANYTHING that gives women political leverage. Susan Faludi's "Backlash" is a pretty good overview of the topic.

how the fuck do single parents LIVE? you can't work a job like this. even if you have the education, tech, and the insane good luck to get remote work or something you basically have to spend every minute your kid isn't asleep stopping them from accidentally killing themselves

"Wait, fucking Venezuela? Are you fucking kidding me?"

the problem with ML is that its best use-case is replacing the middle managers clumsily navigating their own procedures while telling their reports to use AI where it doesn't fucking belong

meditations;

my nonspoiler prediction for Pluribus is that much like breaking bad's ending was foretold from the very first episode, the arc of the show is carol getting plurb'd because the Beforetimes were so bleak that honestly the alien gene sequence was unironically the best thing for most folks lives

ooh also, ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED: i now instinctively yelp in Girl Resonance

endurance cars looking good this year;

someone reopening your nipple piercings and then saying you did a good job not messing with them and knowing your limits is the lunchtime spa treatment of BDSM. computer send post

it is 2002 i am cursing chuck schumer for being a feckless weathervane cosigning murder in the global south it is 2025 i am cursing chuck schumer for al;kjkaslkdg. Ahsingnlsdl;kdfli. Teh. TEH.

cleaning my piercings last night they closed up faster than i thought (like, LITERALLY an hour) and without going into the gory details: if that happens to you, spend the cheapest 10 bucks of your life to get a professional to fix that for you with a taper bar. Ow. ow ow ow ow ow.

the naming conventions of the Adeptus Custodes means in M41 there is definitely at least one twenty foot tall gold clad brainwashed giant named Jesus for reasons that utterly elude him.

getting really into F1 lately, mostly because it is Sports Anime IRL to me and gives me a place to learn cool shit from people who know something about anything car-wise

reminder to watch Titane: the film about being gay and trans with your Dad

up around these parts we call this "Quest-giver Energy"

"its poetic meter and comedic rule of three" she says, dusting off the bullshit chops she learned during student film critiques,

how was episodes three and onward of The Curse anyway? i heard good things

a lotta times i'll reuse the same word in adjacent clauses because the microblog juices flow too freely and ADHD does what it does when i dont edit my shit and its embarrassing, but if this was my valence writing and this was how it gained national prominence i might actually self-harm fr
