"I saw the mask of humanity fall from capital. It has to take it off to kill everyone- everything you love; all the hope and tenderness in the word. It has to take it off, just for one second. to do the deed."

[upbeat zohran voice] I'm here at the Palace of Justice in Nuremberg, Germany, where 80 years ago some important progressive work started [smash cut] but hasn't ended. So here's what we're doing:

In memory of the great writer Dan McQuade, I wrote about how we spent about fifteen years sending each other really stupid press release quotes. I'll miss him.

Sixers hold a moment of silence for Dan McQuade.

“everyone hates you, you fuckin American” idk what you’re talking about, I am a proud citizen of the greatest country in the world: PHILADELPHIA

There should be a Platinum game about the NFL on FOX robot

Merry Christmas from all of us at Sports Reference! Have a safe and happy holiday 🎄

!! Here’s a link to full video of the 60 Minutes segment that Bari Weiss killed last minute, via @jasonparis.bsky.social: is.gd/paU8Ko (It was uploaded to the Global TV app in Canada, seemingly by accident, and has now been taken down)

Sixers vs Knicks box at the half.

At this point the lore of On Cinema At The Cinema feels just as expansive and impenetrable as the Fate series

Getting Protomen Act III, Silksong, and GTA6 all within the same period of time is kind of funny

put your mental health into the hands of one (1) fifty-something year old “therapist” or fifty-three (53!) peak athletes in the prime of their lives who lifted a Lombardi trophy last season? easiest decision you could make.

Is there any actual *measured effect* that the Newsom tweets are having? I keep hearing how they’re “working” but I have not heard exactly how. I read the Alabama one and the comments are saying how great it is but is there a result someone can point me to

Eagles beat the Chiefs so bad they had that man thinking about settling down and starting a family.

The most militant vegans alive can't touch the belligerence and seething resentment of your average suburban dad seeing you order a salad with no feta.

2014 aeropress guy: drip coffee? diner coffee? mister coffee? pfff! I make my coffee in a penis pump. I don't do it the normal way either, stupid. I do it upside down style. it's called the invert method. have you seen bojack horseman?

you gotta live through the whole thing

[Somber David Attenborough voice] He's the last member of the DK Crew.

We're capturing children off the street at gunpoint to get one last ride of garish nostalgia for an America that never was. A future dramatically better is available at the end of this, and the choice will be stark for anyone with a brain, but we've gotta be loud and uncompromising in the meantime.

Padilla: If this is how DHS responds to a senator with a question you can only imagine what they're doing to farm workers, to cooks, to day laborers out in the Los Angeles community and throughout California.

*snl host* once again, the Italian imagination

BREAKING: The Packers' proposal to ban the tush push did not receive the required 75% support from the NFL's owners to pass, per source. The tush push remains alive.

Kojima: I was reading Catcher In The Rye and it moved me. I emailed JD Salinger and he agreed to be scanned for DS2. Reporter: That’s.. How did you Kojima: all our souls are separated by a “Caul Field.” I think JD’s performances as Ryeman and Catcherman will impress everyone.

Playing some Clair Obscur before finishing my morning coffee and missing every single parry lol

I love the made up fantasy language the weird little guys in Clair Obscur speak

I mean this as high praise but Clair Obscur feels like an Xbox 360 game

Barkley: Now, Magritte. I don't like him, Shaq <wheezing>: is it a pipe or not Chuck

OpenAI is using Studio Ghibli-style memes as an ad hoc promotional campaign for its new image generator—despite Ghibli founder Hayao Miyazaki's famous hatred of AI. Sam Altman made his X avatar a 'Ghiblified' portrait. Disgracing Miyazaki is part of the point: It's more proof to them tech has won.

feeling pretty silksongy lately, i gotta say

I usually listen video game music on YouTube while I work, but a couple nights ago I went down a Silvagunner rabbit hole and YouTube autoplay can’t differentiate between that and regular game OSTs so I just heard Aerith’s Theme from FF7R straight into the flintstones theme in the SM64 sound font

Whenever the 76ers win a game from here on out this season

“We obstruct everything until Elon Musk is gone” is a clear message about an unpopular figure who is doing unpopular things

i'm doing several things to deal with the horrors, and the one least likely to make me fun at parties is that i've switched to linux for all non-work tasks to cut down on tracking data

This is so cool

Experiencing this Sixers game exclusively through Bluesky comments and anxiously checking the score during Christmas dinner has been a true adventure

“Now lets see if the Sixers can *preserve* this win” @katetscott.bsky.social is a treasure
