I think working on the Severed Floor is something i could live with as long as one of the perks was getting to motorboat Mr. Melchick

I love how despite being a huge drug addict I am for some reason legitimately scandalized to see someone drinking Celsius during a 6pm yoga class

Well well well if it isn’t the place I get water

Let him cook I guess

The insanity of being a fire ecologist in the epicenter of a major fire event, bags packed and ready to evacuate, watching active fire from my window, while taking media requests and explaining to the public, for the 100,000th time how climate change is largely responsible for this

@drandrealove.bsky.social is a balm for my ragged soul youtu.be/Zk7WlWV-8h0?...

Tokyo update

I’m an abolitionist except for people who wear eyeglasses frames with no lenses

I love how much of philanthropy is just like “oh here is 5% of the money back that I stole from you it is now illegal for you to say anything bad about me”

Doing the "Good game, good game" handshake line as we get led into the camps.

I bought PlayStation underwear

i think rage at congestion pricing is a good example of how no one believes that the world can be positive sum anymore. like, people pay a small fee to get access to a faster commute — saving them valuable time — and the money improves public transit, saving other people valuable time. it's win-win!

Why are there so many dental clinics in Sapporo

Australian men visiting Japan shut the fuck up challenge

Did you spend your teenage years teaching yourself Japanese and then grow up into an adult who loves doing pushups and fucking men? Boy do I have the protein bar for you.

Straight men can be a lil gay, as a treat

Happy Congestion Pricing Day to all who celebrate

You know what I don’t mind having autism I think that being scared of people and needing all my food to not touch is a perfectly reasonable price to pay for not having a meltdown every time I encounter a new piece of software

Are we posting these here

Did it hurt? When you jammed your heel into the ground with every clumsy footstep?

Me in line at Osaka airport immigration trying to remember all the Japanese I forgot due to 20 years of deleting my brain with drugs and alcohol:

Wow JFK terminal 1 is cursed

websites where the menu pops down from the top when you hover over it but the menu immediatley retracts if if you move your cursor 1mm too far...who is the ceo of that

i think we should retire "whom" and just say who for everything since it adds no clarity and is just a way for people to be annoying

You can't spell NPNC without NPC

Bluesky is like if Linkedin had a smoking section

My prediction for 2025 is that The Brutalist is going to make everyone revisit Vox Lux and it will finally be recognized for the masterpiece that it really is youtu.be/fMCYE9hKP68?...

Locked in (buttercream frosting and Skelaxin)

Are there any Mario sunshine mods where Luigi has the F.L.U.D.D.

when christmas and hanukkah fall on the same day

Nothing smacks of desperation more than movie trailers that have junket interviews with the cast out of character...humiliating

Buying gifts is not inherently capitalism. Under capitalism when you buy a PS5 for your kid, Sony shareholders take a cut even though they did nothing of value. Under socialism you could still buy the PS5 but everything would go to the workers. We can ditch capitalism and still have nice things.

Wait hold on is she…is this…because it’s a…Christmas….Carol???? I just put this together please bear with me

I showed this to my husband and he said, “cute! Is that a penis?”

I always do thorough sweep on my way out of hotel rooms because my OCD makes me think my memory of packing my charging cable is false (all my memories could be hallucinations??) and also one time in 2019 I found a full bottle of Ritalin under the bed and have been chasing that thrill ever since

With as much sincerity as solemnity I told one of my group texts this morning that due to a writing deadline this week i was *just* making a Buche de Noel tomorrow and i think that's the whitest thing i've ever said

If seeing the Democrats fall over themselves to defend rich people and throw trans people under the bus doesn’t prove once and for all that they’re part of the problem I don’t know what else to do

Picture a little 4 year old child that you know and imagine this happening to them. This is a profoundly sick society www.haaretz.com/opinion/2024...

i agree that more people should be drinking coquito but saying it's because egg nog has SALMONELLA and then pointing to an incident FORTY YEARS AGO where five people died just feels fearmongery to me. www.theatlantic.com/health/archi...

Don't forget to get enough food for 30 days because the shops will be shut for 12 hours over Christmas.

no

Politicians of all alignments work until they drop dead in order to condition the working class into compliance over the fact that our retirements have been stolen from us to feed the insatiable need of like 27 billionaires www.theatlantic.com/newsletters/...

not that anyone asked, but my spoiler-free review of dune prophecy is that sometimes when i'm editing my own work i'll delete the first two or three paragraphs of throat clearing and suddenly everything falls into place and more people should try it

OCD isn’t people being slightly organized, it’s this

I would rather a restaurant server hock a loogie in my appetizer than ask me "how's everything tasting?"

There’s gonna be a lotta newborns named Luigi in 2025 huh

The designation as terrorist is a mechanism the state uses to justify an extreme carceral response. But at the same time if you think about what terrorism is, why were all these white shooters who had bigoted manifestos against religious & ethnic groups not terrorists, but the assassin of a CEO is?
