Yet another media outlet that I wish I could cancel repeatedly.

Incompetent courtiers being put in charge of key technical positions and then totally botching them was a recurring feature and major weakness of historical absolute monarchies and authoritarian regimes. Anyway, Bari Weiss,

Well, it’s as bad as it seemed. Yay.

This must be the van they send to your location when you do a good post

The “main gist” of Aristotle is NOT THE FUCKING POINT OF ARISTOTLE!!!

Definitely a classic “alpha” stance right there, buddy

The split within MAGA seems to be whether they should hate everybody EXCEPT Jews or hate everybody but ESPECIALLY Jews.

One day something will happen — a wedding, a graduation, a job promotion, Jake Paul getting knocked out, Andrew Tate getting knocked out the next day — and you’ll want the right outfit to celebrate. Buy that special outfit now, so you’re ready when that next unexpected moment arrives.

I’m so fucking mad that AI slop like this is possible and circulating. AI is a technology that destroys the utility of so much other technology and shorts out the human mind. It’s so fucking awful and needs to die. DEEP BREATH, but fuuuuck

The incompetence is overwhelming. Temu fascism is too kind.

The person charged with enforcing the laws is an open lawbreaker, assisted by a team of open lawbreakers, backed by a Congressional majority indifferent to lawbreaking, supported by a Supreme Court that privileges them to break the law. It has no legitimacy whatsoever.

grimch

SO FUCKING TRUE

it's cool how the White House Chief of Staff said on the record, almost certainly accurately, that the richest man in the world lives stewing in a perpetual k-hole, and nothing has happened to either of them as far as we can tell?

I saw more downed trees today from overnight winds at Breckenridge than I’ve seen in a decade. We don’t have fire risk up here, but lack of snow, warm temps, and high winds have resulted in rather challenging snow conditions.

In addition to this administration trying to kill kids, and they're also coming for our binders? OUR BINDERS.

These are the people who are willing to go on the record. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/18/u...

If any journalist wants to talk to a trans man with a PhD in Human Genomics who was trained in labs that studied the evolution of sex, I'm right here Or just keep platforming Republicans who have a 5th grade understanding of biology so they get more trans people killed, sure 🤷🏻‍♂️

Someone said that the passage of the violently anti-trans bill was progress because only three Democrats voted for it & four Republicans voted against it but when these same kinds of bills were introduced eight or nine years ago they were opposed by a large bipartisan majority. We've lost so much

The Vanity Fair photographer from the Susie Wiles story. Holy. Shit. www.washingtonpost.com/style/power/...

I read that whole “it sucks to be a millennial white man thanks to DEI” piece and have some thoughts. Overall: how sad to put that much work into making a case to be resentful, and a bad case at that. (Thread)

Toad sipped his tea. “Frog,” he asked, “are you making this up?” “Maybe yes and maybe no,” said Frog.

I’m sold!! Firefox, you suck ass and I’m leaving you.

I like Heather Cox Richardson. She’s a nice lady IRL who has clearly read a lot of books.

Every once in a while, I think that I’m overly harsh on stoicism. Then I see shit like this, which is 100% in line with classical stoicism, and I hate the stoics afresh.

Jimmy Kimmel was also hugely damaging, despite being far from the worst of this year’s horrors. Yes, I want people to be better informed and more decent, but maybe the tide is really turning. A little hope feels so damn good right now.

The racism is blindingly white here, friends

My wife ordered some Frog and Toad stickers from Etsy and they’re all pretty much what you’d expect until

I lean in a French direction on this question

I enjoy this online space because it’s pretty much devoid of “influencer” behavior and culture, so much so that so that popular accounts lament their popularity. It feels mostly like a bunch of friendly weirdos being social and supportive.

Chaptcha for equestrians #eqbsky

I think the fundamental gap here is that non-creative people think that creative people make things for the end product, when in fact it’s the act of creation and not the end point that makes it worthwhile.

If you haven't checked it out, r/bald is one of the most wholesome and delightful subs on the internet. It's mostly men transforming themselves into hotties w/ tons of emotional support from other men. I love to see it. Bonus: serious thirst traps like this dude: www.reddit.com/r/bald/comme...

As more and more creators are expected to be on camera to promote their comics, can we talk for a second about how this opens up female creators to intense harassment about their looks? Not to mention a lot of "You only have a career in comics because you're good looking" comments?

I hate that every week there's something stupid like an Everyone Has To Drink Pee Now Bill and the alert sounds to CALL YOUR REPRESENTATIVES THIS IS NOT A DRILL and you really wish you could just trust them to not go for the pee drinking bill

I had a pretty disappointing 3 sets of back squats at 105 lbs, and then I counted plates again and realized that I was at 125 lbs. Gym math is hard, not enough blood for good braining. 🏋️‍♂️🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️

I’d like to test drive the adamantium boner, please

Let’s hope the shift continues and that Massie and Greene are not the only (R)s with the guts to be vocal about the depravity of the goddamn U.S. President real soon.

If I weren't a lifelong atheist, I'd believe Trump is the anti-Christ The most pure evil person on our planet. No redeeming qualities whatsoever. Fuck this piece of shit

my favorite thing about the benoit blanc movies is that they aren't really about benoit blanc. he is not grappling with demons from his past. we are not getting flashbacks to the husband whose murder he never solved. he just shows up and does his job like mary poppins for homicides

I’m introducing the bf to Pride & Prejudice — via the BBC miniseries, ofc — and he’s decided that he’s Lydia. It’s hilarious and not wrong.

I’ve watched this too many times not to share.

I said it before & I'll say it again until it damn well sinks in: Every streaming service w/ the rights to long-running episodic TV shows needs a per-series shuffle function. Sometimes I want futurama-esque background noise, but the act of selecting a particular episode Kills that vibe. So: Shuffle

Me and my 20 points feel attacked.

It's so fucked up to have been a kid during the D&D is the devil freakout and the Tipper Gore dirty lyrics freakout and live to see the teen suicide machine get such a pass.
