Bro cooked? Bro IS Cooked

This is so tied up in all media and business and current tech trends, but one of the pillars of the managerial class is thinking they're smarter than they are and consumers are dumber than they are. This is FOUNDATIONAL to everything they do.

No one has a more pessimistic view of young people’s reading habits than the adults who produce those books

My reaction to Jorge Gutierrez getting in on AI 😭

I made a frutiger aero soft soap themed xenomorph...

It seems like more and more Trump fans are wavering on their support for him. I want to know what the breaking point for them was. The man has always been nasty, stupid, and cruel. Is it because of fuel prices or is there more to it?

Whatever your thoughts about The Boys' finale, it made Elon Musk mad, which the show's creator and cast think is hilarious.

Imagine thinking that Bluey is so excessively woke that you feel the need to create a conservative alternative. At that point it’s just game fucking over for you. No hope for you as a person.

I’m in this weird space with The Boys now where the latest two seasons have been so bad that it has killed my expectations for anything good, but I like the first three seasons so much that I’m still just invested enough to see how it ends.

Treat time ❤️

@jamieloftus.bsky.social My local B&N had the little feature note on your book yesterday!

www.texastribune.org/2026/05/15/t... Fucking ghouls.

At some point there needs to be a *proper* conversation about how cruelty has become a new normal for so many people. And we can't just keep putting it down to structures. Too many people with plenty of agency are actively choosing this.

Happy Mother’s Day

I don’t know how I managed a perfect score I guessed on like, six or seven of them lol

I genuinely think that my fascination with grifts, hoaxes, and conspiracies is a direct result of being raised by a carny.

My biggest conspiracy theory is that telling working class people that engagement in the arts is a middle / upper class thing and to do so makes you a class traitor is a psyop to make them disengaged with themselves and the world and the beauty of being human, so that they accept worse treatment.

The "out of the way swine" comic is great but this is the best comic strip of all time

He paints what he can never have. Look at this man. Who would let him near a fairy tale cottage in a wooded glen?

Pierre Bourdieu once argued that the question of whether something is art isn't answered by the artist's intention or even the object itself. Instead, the quality of being "art" is conferred by a community — curators, dealers, auction houses, audiences, etc. 🧵

True crime docs are always like “This is a nice, quiet town/neighborhood. The kind of place where you don’t expect a murder”. Except if you go by true crime media, it’s EXACTLY the place where you’d expect murders to happen.

I say we start a publishing imprint that focuses on edgy books for teens. Hey kids, these are the violent, sexual, and shocking books that your lameass parents don’t want you to read! 😎

Now that there’s a barbecue food truck by the laundromat I almost look forward to laundry day!

We really do need to bring back the concept of selling out as a problem. It is fucked up the number of wealthy celebrities who do ads for gambling apps and other awful shit.

www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026... Holy shit lol

The “everyone is 12 now” theory is quite solid, but may I also posit: “Everyone is stuck in high school.”

The premise of this story is "what if mammary tissue was contagious" and also "what if Yoko Ono did bioterrorism"

Why, thou picture of what thou seemest, and idol of idiot-worshippers

The Rise and Fall of Misery Memoirs is NOW OUT on YouTube! Come learn about trauma, Satan, a two-decades-long scam, and the most insane chaotic good lawyer I have ever heard of. youtu.be/W8Nhvr1X8Kc?...

Some fans online claim that Lasseter leaving is the reason for Pixar movies not being as good. But given that Skydance movies have had middling commercial and critical success, I think it’s clear that he wasn’t the secret sauce.

women were kept out of meetings and career opportunities at Pixar because John Lasseter was so much of a sex pest that people decided it was easier to simply not have them in the room with him how many talented women didn’t get a fair chance because one guy couldn’t behave himself?

I love you people in the replies. 5-6 years down the line, your Gen Alpha friend is gonna show you Blorbo, the hot new cartoon that's actually about trauma?!? Its appeal will be obvious, but also somehow inscrutable to you. You will feel the warm and beautiful sense of cultural isolation I feel.

@steveyurko.com someone made a frinkiac for king of the hill, thought you should know boompane.ordoliberal.com

open.substack.com/pub/wildtomo... A great write-up on a subject that doesn’t get discussed as much as it should. How wildlife extinction not only has negative ecological and economic impacts, but how it also hurts human culture.

How I feel after competing a Norwegian lesson in Pimsleur

the banality of Protestant evil

I love how regular vaccinated unhealthy people get normal problems like heart disease while unvaccinated alternative medicine MAHA people all get mange, flesh-eating bacteria, and obscure diseases not seen since the middle ages

Letting girls sneak copies of the Earth’s Children series will restore American literacy.

Yeah I think is a HUGE part of the ongoing appeal, given how much house merchandise I see.

There’s often this online discourse about how boys and men don’t read because publishers aren’t putting out books for them any more. Then what on Earth is this?

Recipe for the goodest boy in the whole world

Tubi is very RETVRN but like, in a good way.

Their definition of "bad times" was seeing mixed-race families in Cheerios commercials, so they thought they were the strong men emerging from those bad times

i’ve come to believe that we will never solve the literacy crisis by talking about reading as “watering the garden of your mind” or whatever. books are, and have always been, the favored medium of God’s purest freaks and degenerates. Reading isn’t a salad. If you’re doing it right, it’s a vice.

sorry basically the problem of my life is that i internalized and believed a lot of stuff people said about valuing children and loving your neighbor and living in a society at the exact moment that everyone in power decided all of that shit was fake and gay and not a way to make a living

www.theguardian.com/technology/2... This article brings up some of the concerns over the recent wave of AI toys. I started reading for that but I’m very amused by their mention of an AI toy developed by Grimes. We’re living in such a stupid era.
