Between the RECENT (???) homophobic anti-Obama graffiti, and some unhinged dude SCREAMING a profession of love and apology to HENRY CLAY FRICK on the sidewalk: Something deeply stupid is happening in my neighborhood

Rapture bullshit is really interesting to me because it's one of the few Mainstream Christianity things to be that is as alien as all of it is to the non-Christians.

Evergreen

You ever wonder if some fuckwads decided, "The downtrend is happening anyway -- let's deport people and pretend this is why"

I will literally always say Sullivan's Travels

I wish some people I want to like would Beat the Allegations that they are deeply unserious people.

I have walked into some frustration and confusion at work on Monday morning. I realize that this is kinda typical, but I want to go on record that Cut It Out, I Don't Like It.

It's just occurring to me that three of my Top 10 Musical/Opera songs are basically tangos

In Naperville, IL on Wednesday, ICE surrounded a group of documented workers replacing a residential roof. ICE agents reportedly kicked over the ladders and forced the workers to jump. The episode involved a chase with guns drawn.

OK, like I'm tired of lumping together "Telling them they deserved it" and "Telling them they should have known this would happen" They aren't the same thing. You don't *deserve* to cut your finger off when you knowingly hold a knife wrong, but you should be upbraided for it.

Of fucking course the star of this desecration is an actual rapist.

UPDATE: He was there and has a voice of gold

Seeing the Bill Watterson originals full of pencil lines of stuff that didn’t work, scuffs the eraser didn’t pick up, white out galore and more was something I needed to see to remind myself that nothing is perfect the first go and tweaks need to be made and you’re allowed to try again.

Oh, Keith David is gonna play the Pittsburgh jazz fest in like an hour if the schedule holds Like put on the fucking glasses Keith David

Anyone who signs this pledge is not a journalist.

The debate around what is or isn’t “cancel culture” really just obscures a simple truth that it’s BAD to be massively racist/sexist/homophobic/transphobic and it’s GOOD to speak out against injustice. Some things are good and some things are bad and it’s okay to say which you think are which.

*looks back at yesterday's posts* Don't post from Oktoberfest, everybody. Because the posts don't stop.

PSA: If someone asks you why you know Charlie Kirk wasn't a good guy, here's an article with his lowlights: www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

The Royal Tenenbaums, I think.

This is 100% accurate

I wish I understood what mechanism of Congress means that you can't just say "I want to call out every unrighteous shitstain for destroying my fucking country," and then listing them each by name. Like, I dunno, "Tom Cotton: shitstain," and then just keep going.

I have spent entirely too much money this week. On the other hand: I was not bored and sad. I can't do this every week, but I'll take it.

My dad owned three (four?) tapes, didn't have a valid license, and only drove my mom's car when she gave up and allowed him to. Putting the pieces together, this was probably the one he played the most.

This is beyond batshit insane Every single working journalist should refuse to talk to these pieces of shit

"More professors in the United States have been fired for controversial views in the past week than any other week in all of American history." www.insidehighered.com/opinion/colu...

There's a great deal of people on this site whose commitment to cynicism would leave them rolling their eyes at We Shall Overcome

Tired of rotten liars getting as much or more airtime than people who speak for love and justice It's been like, the entirety of human history; isn't it about time to try something else?

If your Internet experience feels like you are always under attack from someone, and so that's how you act to everyone (lashing out against attacks real or perceived), then something has gone horribly wrong. Please figure out what is going on.

A federal judge has thrown out President Trump's lawsuit against The New York Times. The suit, he says, "stands unmistakably and inexcusably athwart the requirements" of federal court rules. It is "decidedly improper and impermissible." storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

I just want that tuba from the meme and everyone who's wrong to teleport one-by-one to the wall in front of me I don't see why this is so difficult

Block this lying asshole

Stay tuned for the master's thesis I will never fully flesh out and never enroll to validate, but would definitely be called Something Something Sports, Something Capitalism, Bread and Circuses Type Shit, Sports are Fun to Watch but Somehow Everyone's Being Duped and it Sucks Real Bad

Name a linguistic feature of your region that's gonna give you away like in a one-hour detective show Anymore, I find myself saying this:

Olivia Nuzzi back at Vanity Fair is an excellent encapsulation of the current state of the press, complete with the journomerta coverage as if she was out for a speeding ticket or a bad post instead of an incredibly gross undisclosed affair with her subject

The fall out to last week’s assassination is interesting to me because it really gives insight into the way the algorithm showed people on the right CK’s relatively benign, pro-Christian, pro-family content and none of his bigotry, and people on the left seemingly only saw the bigotry stuff

I was trying to read a thread by one of these RSVP Discourse Guys, and he just used so many fucking words to say nothing that I blocked him.

The absolute, without fail, #1 way to disrupt an entity with power in the United States: Fuck With Their Money

The D&D you believe isn't properly medieval is actually set in the Renaissance

I actually hope this eats into the already-tainted-by-Lesnar "Wrestlepalooza"

Obviously, Brendan Carr must resign. But it is even more essential that Republicans reject these unconstitutional attacks on free speech.

"I'm an American and I can say whatever I want about whoever I want. Fuck you!" is engrained into everyone's damn head. Everyone loves the first amendment so much! It's just insane to flatly say "Nuh uh!" to that! How much more cognitive dissonance can his supporters take?

Is this real? This is actually the strongest argument I can think of for age caps on public office

Love to agree with five different people who all hate each-other and believe they are arguing against each-other's wholly compatible points.

Let’s review. X: owned by Trump’s largest donor Facebook: owner gave Trump $1M TikTok: soon operated by billionaire Trump donors ABC: fired Kimmel, gave Trump $15M CBS: fired Colbert, gave Trump $16M This isn't normal. Free speech doesn't belong to billionaires.

During my brief stint as a manager, maybe my most shocking revelation is that if I had been a real scumbag, I could have made up nearly any "valid" reason to fire someone I just didn't like, and it would have stuck on the off-chance it ever went to court. That's what he expects a president to have.

It’s, like, objectively bad we spent the last ten years demonizing hopes and dreams

We are not in 1933 Germany. We are in 1947 USA It took about 10 years to get out of maybe a little longer and it happened without a war. This is McCarthyism, if you didn’t learn about it in school, now is a great time to brush up.

New statement from the House Dem leadership on Kimmel: “Brendan Carr, the so-called Chairman of the Federal Communications Commission, has engaged in the corrupt abuse of power. ... This will not be forgotten.”

I think some people on this site have convinced themselves our salvation lies in someone wearing a Guy Fawkes mask, not millions of normies deciding enough is enough.
