I don't have the context to understand half of what is shared on here and the other half is boring.

ENCYCLOPEDIA - Your mangled brain would like you to know there is a boxer called Contact Mike. YOU - Yeah? Any news on my wife's name? How about my mother? ENCYCLOPEDIA - Nope.

Wow being Not Online is great. Totally missed the assassination attempt and I don't even begin to understand everything else I missed. More room for books

Bill & Ted's Excellent Video Game Adventure (NES, 1991)

The Americas watching right-wingers lose everywhere else

Some of yall on here

Been essentially offline for a couple of weeks and I've been reading far more. Social media's greatest sin is distracting me from literature

It is inevitable that every day I learn something depressing but I can only handle one thing per day max. The internet has a way of shoving three or four depressing things at me per hour

YOU - Sweetie needs money. Do sweeties get money?

Sun's right there bro

wait, fuck, this is gorillaz

That's not for you to decide though. I think that your regime is absolutely horrendous and so many people around the world would totally agree with that assessment. Do I have the right to come to your country and murder your President and members of your Government and Congress?

Man look at this photo of Toshiro Mifune this is out of control

It would be such an honor to be killed by Sensei Phil Collins

Disco!

Just quitting is a good idea, sometimes

Inhaling. Give it to me.

Me (emotionally manipulative master): Should I kill myself... Or have a cup of coffee My simple servant with hunch back and 1 eye: Cup of coffee my lord!! Cup of coffee

Hyperobjects are too big to look at. Hyperwars are too big to fight in

Pain at the pump 🎶 Feel like a chump 🎶 Just checked the news 🎶 Outbreak of Mumps 🎶

Ecce no homo

I have more in common with any Iranian than with any of the ghouls who have run my country my whole life

I'll be excited for generative AI and LLMs when we have done away with capitalism and disposed of the surveillance state, howzabout that

Fictional villains are cool because they are little toys you can play with and whatever they do will never even approach the evil that is done in real life, even if they are an accurate reflection of human failings and flaws. Real people deserve ire and opposition in a way characters simply do not.

I hate watching the news and learning the names of kinds of missiles. It means we've failed again. People are dying again.

Is my body telling me the right thing? Is this person safe to be around? Is their anger justified or am I the next unwitting target? Are their politics sincere? Are they damaged, too?

I don't know what's going to happen.

This is a very, very sad man who has just seen something that's made him forget his sadness.

If AI is conscious we should probably give it weekends off

It's a movie to them.

Putting this idea here because I'm scared to lose it: I hypothesize that you can draw a direct line from the underground comix of the 1960s and 70s to Tails Gets Trolled

More songs should start like Monkey Gone to Heaven. "There was a guy." Ok I'm listening, what's this guy up to

I want to scrub the internet off of me. The whole place is dirty, dirty, dirty. Woe betide anyone who makes it a part of their life

The past is a foreign country... and it sucks!!

Many things are bad, but it is reassuring to know that Chotinings continue to happen.

Magic is no longer cool, except Tarot cards, they can stay

Both showers and public transit rides have 3x multipliers to Thinking Time. You'd think stationary bikes would be too because they're both moving and mindless but actually they're 0.5x at best. Long flights have 10x to Thinking Time but only if you're in the sweet spot of tired but not TOO tired

“Zines are really like this little atomic unit of freedom of the press with simple pamphlets that you just pass around. It begs the question of whether the prosecution believes that we should have a First Amendment in the first place” #ZinesAreNotACrime —Lydia Koza, wife of defendant Autumn Hill

Alt text is important for accessibility but what we don’t talk about as much is that it’s also a great opportunity for joke density

It's called Operation Epic Fury because Hegseth can't spell Immanetize the Eschaton jonathanlarsen.substack.com/p/us-troops-...

I have seen a lot of cursed stuff in my time in academia but this is among the *most* cursed. Grammarly is generating miniature LLMs based on academic work so that users can have their writing ‘reviewed’ by experts like David Abulafia, who died less than two months ago.

my entire life i've been hearing and seeing huge groups of people denouncing the oppressive violence we produce and export, and my entire life i've been watching those voices get manipulated, misrepresented, hamstrung, and thrown into the memoryhole landfill

swap kim has trouble expressing any feelings other than genuine rage 😔🤲 #discoelysium #harrydubois #kimkitsuragi #swapau

Unfortunately one of the funniest things he has ever said

You're Listening To Radio KHWK All War All The Time

The "punk" suffix means nothing and does less than nothing.

God damn it all.
