Thanksgiving hot take: mashed potatoes are the lowest tier kind of potato.

I'm not a fan of LLMs either but "wireback"? Really?

So, what happened recently was we basically got the materials to install wood flooring in the living room for free. We had to pay someone to install it but that's not even close to a complaint. I've spent all day basically marveling that I actually have good floors for once.

This is so sad to me. Of course they feel bored of this. There's no artistic satisfaction in pressing the dopamine button over and over. And it probably killed their actual passion for music.

I feel like there's a largely unspoken truth about our present moment that the Me Too movement and anti-racist movements and everything else, if actually allowed to complete their stated goals, would have outed these psychos sooner and prevented some of the horrors we're all experiencing.

“why don’t women want to date these white men?”

women are always saying “lord grant me the confidence of a mediocre man.” ok well he did. now what. is the world a better place? look at what you’ve wrought.

POV: you are a young woman celebrating a recent academic success

The end result of pedocon theory was always that, inevitably, they would be forced to resolve the contradiction by just openly confessing it.

Guy with multiple "kill your local pedophile" bumperstickers, on facebook under his real name and picture, immediately pivoting from trying to get trans people legally defined as sex offenders to giving a detailed description of his many sex crimes

For years we've been saying every accusation is a confession, and now all these guys who've spent that same time screaming about trans people are just openly confessing to felonies in order to protect their big wet pedophile from consequences

Stop it with all this homophobic, transphobic, body shaming shit. All you’re doing is communicating to people who deserve your solidarity that you’re not on their side.

I swear to god. The problem with Trump isn’t his weight or whether he had a gay encounter. The problem is that he’s a fascist, corrupt criminal. Get it together, people. If you’re going to protect people and form coalitions you have to do better and show you are an ally.

On the heels of two decades of making the argument you should not care about children being shot in schools

In 2024 the American ruling class wholeheartedly made the argument you should not care about children being blown up and starved. In 2025 they make the argument you should not care about children being raped.

It’s a consistent ideology They believe we are their slaves. so if they want to rape us they get to rape us, and if they don’t want us taking a medication we aren’t allowed to take that medication It’s really straightforward. The rhetoric exists to confuse you so you don’t resist

Everybody loves to talk about owning the means of production but if you’re an independent artist, they say “not you.”

A sweet little Black-capped Chickadee perched on goldenrod.

Since everyone is rightly focused on the Epstein files, now would be a good time to remind you: Child marriage is legal in 34 states across the US. That’s almost 70% of this nation. How about we end that?

I was supposed to get a day off Wednesday but everyone forgot, including me.

I couldn't sleep and now i've got to watch my grandpa until 4 am. He's been hallucinating.

In this salt of the earth Little St. James diner, economic anxiety and working class fears dominate. Will sneering elite Starbucks baristas ever listen to them? Here's why that's bad for Democrats.

Sometimes I think about the question someone put on the bad site, asking women how old they were the first time an adult man came on to them or made a sexually suggestive remark to them. I want to say the vast majority of us were between 11 and 13. I've been thinking about it a lot today.

I don't know how to say this. stop doing homophobia at the president

The Trump did a BJ thing just sounds like the sort of things these guys would joke about, tbh. Dunno if I believe it.

I get annoyed at gals who act like they're against supporting cishet western societal beauty standards for women but then very giddily engage in body shaming whenever possible if it's against one of the "bad guys"

U.S. catholic bishops criticizing Trump's crackdowns obscured that at the same conference they tried to make sure way more trans people die due to a lack of life-saving medical care. Catholic hospitals see 1 in 7 patients. In some areas they're the only medical system: www.npr.org/2025/11/12/g...

If the NYT told the story of the homeless teenager exploited by Matt Gaetz with even half as much empathy as it tells the story of Olivia Nuzzi, it would be in danger of committing journalism.

In addition to the transphobia, Silence of the Lambs primed a whole generation to think of upper class villains as sophisticated and hyper competent.

every time a trans man asks "what can i do to look more masculine/pass better" and you reply with something like "be ugly" "look like shit" "be misogynistic" you have to give him $5

Olivia Nuzzi loved it. She loved its single unfocused eyeball set deep in a shapeless wad of pink. She loved the wet sound of crunching through bone when it swallowed a rat. She loved the sewer stink wafting off it, from being born in a sewer. She was its "Livvy" and it was her "Unnamed Skin Thing".

Any rule in a board game can & will be missed or forgotten by someone. So increasingly when deciding whether to add a rule, I consider whether it "fails gracefully." If you forget that rule, does the whole game halt or break? Or does it continue functioning (albeit with a minor loss in quality)?

A 15 year old cannot drive, vote, work, or live alone. They cant join the military. They cant be out past 10PM without an adult here. And you, an adult man, want to have sex with them? Your desire is for POWER over them. That is all. They are defenseless. Powerless. They are children.

The world is run by people who are more cruel and more obscene than you can fathom. They're all pathetic in ways that feel like satire, and monstrous beyond your wildest imagining.

I don't why people still give them the benefit of the doubt. Megyn Kelly knows full well 15 year old girls are still illegal. Calling them barely legal is a propaganda tactic. Trying to correct her is a waste of time. People should be aiming for her removal.

i imagine patton oswalt knew that would happen and did it anyway on purpose and doesn't particularly care which is the proper attitude. i support threats being suspendable offenses and i support people making them anyway if the situation compels it and just reading a book for three days
