The comments prove that bsky has so much juice. But his "beard" really does look like it's giving everyone the bird.

Clearly the solution to securing a home is never "more doors"?

Quora's emails are ridiculously unhinged these days. The site appears to have been overrun by Miller-lites.

JVL is really, really good. So my deep-seated presumption is that there's an interesting insight in here. Perhaps that even the most brain-broken sociopaths can find a path back to not-insane even without redemption. Locking the text behind a paywall with an inflammatory headline is ill-judged.

Get the money out of billionaires. To do that, you have to get the money out of politics.

Rogue State. Even with everything else going on, this is still chilling.

While there's some debate about Trump being a Russian agent (he's too uncouth and incompetent, so probably just an asset), there is less doubt about Sacks. Although he might be a believer, rather than compromised. Sacks is The Worst, for me.

Sauron was originally convicted of eldar abuse.

I like the joke format but have not yet managed to make a popular one

This is why Miller worded these things the way he did. He's foul, and less stupid than many of the others.

"Somehow Shaddam Returned"

Ok. Carry on. I have "worked."

He's obviously awful and profoundly wrong (with just enough truth to justify the whining). But, in a way, he's also right, in that the govt should do a whole host more, such that some charities are not required, and it should all be paid for by a substantial wealth tax.

Shhh. I'm "working."

Don't wanna go to work tomorrow.

"They found the coats on Thursday morning. Fifteen winter coats. Good ones, not garbage. Hanging on the chain-link fence outside Lincoln Elementary.No note. No explanation. Just coats zipped up like ghosts waiting for bodies. Principal Morris freaked out. Called the police. "Could be stolen"

This totally disregards the Tom Hardy bits of Inception.

Got promoted a YouTube vid, supposedly a gotcha at a UK Liberal who was talking about a hypothetical where there would be 100% tax on £10M+ inheritance. The simplistic "they'll leave" should be discussed rather than closing the argument. I think most people would be ok with debate on this.

We went from a Prime Minister from whom we hoped for more, to a PM from whom we wish for far less.

Context you rarely hear: global stocks are up about 30% over the past year. U.S. stocks? Around 18%. That means American investors underperformed the world by about 12 percentage points, even while headlines called it a “fantastic year.”

This book. I blame this book for the way I turned out. Bonus points: you can get them all here usborne.com/row/books/co...

Worst business idea: the prog rock jukebox

I love it when smart, articulate, people discuss topics that I understand in interesting and intelligent ways. I didn't care for the Avatars, but don't exactly regret watching them. Technological marvels that are more impressive than likeable. Which I think is true of all his films after Aliens.

Just wow. @pluralistic.net.web.brid.gy came out swinging in this article. He's right though and that's the coolest part.

Oh well done.

Make a Bond movie casual View To A Canal

Reality has been such a disappointment that Heads of State is almost delightfully witty showing UK and US leaders bantering over a shared reality. The bar is so low now.

Just realised that 2 games made me sad this year for killing creatures: RDR2 and Dredge. Both excellent games, and I had to go through with the slaughters. I am not a vegetarian although it sounds like I should be.

<Slaps roof of Epstein Files> You can't fit any Trump in these bad boys.

Something seriously wrong with Republicans

They just replaced Tiny Tim with a healthier orphan.

Recreating this legendary Peanuts scene. Yeah hoe!

Me?

Oh. And fcuk cancer. One of the fiercest and finest people I know went yesterday. Damnit.

Hard to imagine why a billionaire white male who'll only see posts from registered X members would think they get good feedback (i.e. subservient approval).

I like big boats and I cannot lie - Admiral Mix-a-lot

Last Christmas I gave you my Hart And the very next day, it was moiduh.

"An Epstein File in every pot"

Merry Christmas to those who liked my jokes. To the others, Happy Holidays.

I remember being so sad when the film strip melted in the cinema. Hopefully the rest of the film was good.

This. But of course they don't actually have any intention of going to Mars, they just don't want to stop shitting the global bed, so they pretend it doesn't matter.

So The Shadow Over Innsmouth is about a coastal community that is unpleasant and hostile to outsiders, which worships a foul, fishlike humanoid monster and invite his spawn into their homes. Apparently HP Lovecraft never went to Clacton-on-Sea, but that seems unbelievable really.

It's layer upon layer of bad faith villainy here. Who they are, what their argument is, and how they choose to illustrate. Hyphenated arseholery from inherited twatistocracy.

I actually have a pHD in acidity testing.

Can't be a merry Christmas if no-one liked my lumbar joke. Season's Gratings instead.

We need a new word for "lying" when it's telling exclusively your audience what they want to believe.
