In vain we compute our felicities by the advantage of our good names, since bad have equal durations, and Wario is like to live as long as Mario

NEW: @propublica.org investigated the Chicago apartment raid where kids were zip-tied and citizens detained for hours. They find: - NONE of the arrested were criminally charged - NO evidence the building was "filled with TdA terrorists." - ZERO legitimate reason for DHS to rappel from a Blackhawk.

There was a very good reason why Gawker had to be destroyed...

Since 2022, Horsegirl, Lifeguard, and Friko have gone global—but what happened with the teen scene they grew out of? I talked to 18 different people about the Hallogallo scene now chicagoreader.com/music/music-...

Happy There Is A Circulatory System Walking Through The Kitchen Day to all who celebrate.

can't wait to see this. Bi Gan is one of the most exciting filmmakers working right now, highly recommend watching Long Day's Journey Into Night if you haven't seen it yet.

quite frankly most of you are not weyland-yutani material
