raises hand sheepishly with my 1000 day Japanese streak. I didn't get NOTHING out of it, but a lot of that was doing supplementary work and copying things down onto paper so it actually locked in my memory

always love to see my wife

John Brown’s body lies a-mouldering in the grave John Brown’s body lies a-mouldering in the grave John Brown’s body lies a-mouldering in the grave But his soul goes marching on

Ezra Klein’s most recent column gives the game away: he talks about how horrified he was by Kirk’s assassination because he identifies with Kirk. Kirk, like Klein, talked for a living. So even if they had different policy positions, to some degree, Klein sees himself in Kirk. /1

urgh

For those who don't recall, the closest ship to the Titanic was The Californian. They did not respond to distress signals. The Carpathia did, from much further away. That captain was a hero. This is so worth your time.

Put me in coach, I'm ready

I can't stop eating peanut M&Ms. My work snacks are trying to make me fat

What the fuck

Steinbeck, East of Eden

The Protestant Work Ethnic tells you that Work = Virtue. Without "work" you are a burden, valueless (despite the fact that your poverty is systemic). Then, Prosperity Gospel came along and said that Wealth = God's favor. So, if you're sick or homeless it's because you didn't believe hard enough.

This is actually great advice and also probably a good way to get your kid too frustrated to use most of the shit that ruins them. Discord runs like shit? Well, guess I'll never use it

i constantly think about this post

Everyone should write. If you write - blogs, articles, fanfiction, erotica, insane political screeds, great novels, beautiful poems, weird fantasy where the elves have to go barefoot for some reason - then I'm fundamentally in agreement with you

After a Saturday at #PAX, I gotta admit it feels like it's struggling to find the right identity for the current era. Upcoming games don't need expos anymore. But! The strongest stuff felt like the tabletop area. I loved seeing indie projects. I wish the mid-size retailers weren't so squeezed and

Can't wait to visit the Vegas version of Lenin's Tomb that's located outside the National Mall

if you haven’t watched the adam friedland show interview with ritchie torres you absolutely should. he really confronts him on his sycophantic support of isreal, and this end “hot mic” clip to me is so revealing

I can't with incurious people. Them: "How do I do X?" Me: "I don't know, have you looked at the thing? Tried it? How far did you get?" Them: "Nooo that sounds haaard I need *you* to do this for me!" Like, how do you go through life like this? How have they not spontaneously combusted out of shame?

I have Yglasias muted for a reason!! And now people are posting screen caps of his tweets!! And without content warnings for Atlantic writers!! this is assault!!!!!!!

imagine being so maniacally racist that you side with the fire over the firefighter

I would very much like to be okay.

i imagine a future in which we are all okay

the complete embrace of nihilism and the rejection of being genuine is the greatest danger to humanity right now

It do be like this

I think I'm probably done with Magic in a "Putting my full passion towards it", like for real this time. Discussions about UB being bad or not are just the most worn-out arguments I've ever seen, and people continually policing whether or not you're allowed to not like something is tiresome.

Boy programming really just is stealing everything from somewhere isn't it. The Warhammer techpriests are real

probably my favourite robot scene in any mecha anime and basically nothing happens in it except a robot is launched. tremendously evocative

Fuckin' the last 20 minutes of End of Evangelion is happening, meanwhile Denji is just standing there, slack-jawed and bug eyed, howling like a cartoon wolf, because he saw some panties

Everyone's like no ACTUALLY it's Stalinism meanwhile everyone who's actually read about Maoism when he got old

Somebody on LinkedIn said what we're all thinking.

Can't believe Sarah Palin just gets fully vindicated with this. Sucks, man

Pagliacci goes to see Pagliacci. He's in the audience, but also on the stage. "Is this, fuck," he thinks. "Am I in a Lynch film right now. Am I in Mullholland Drive." Captured by confusion, horror, and strange, exultant sorrow, the clown must admit he is no longer depressed

I fucking love Dandadan so much holy shit
