hi, i'm Rich Lather. you may know me from shampoo

The most intriguing storyline in pro wrestling this month is not a title chase or a bloody feud, but whether or not fans are going to keep chanting "Fuck ICE" at shows.

I really think the whole notion of “bearing witness” has gotten deeply twisted “Witness” does not mean merely to observe firsthand. It means to carry truth and to testify to that truth in the pursuit of justice You don’t need to traumatize yourself in order to know that atrocities are happening

oops i have accidentally created a situation where i need to update my operating system in order to do my homework and did not realize this until it was already way too late to be starting my homework! real throwback to my first time doing college

one of my proudest achievements is entering the canon of perhaps millions of media studies publications that cite the work of art in the age of mechanical reproduction

it's unbelievable to me that someone could actually be a trillionaire. i think most of us have trouble internalizing how much money that truly is. let me put it in simple terms for you: a trillion dollars is three million dollars

i feel like if the electrical outlets in your apartment have been painted over your landlord should have to financially compensate you. Like not only to replace the outlets but also to ease the mental anguish of knowing they permitted a certified dumbass to paint the apartment before you moved in

a little laugh amidst the doom

At the end of the day, the Black Lives Matter era was about whether people should be killed in the street, and lots of people decided yeah and put those little blue flags on their cars. It spread to everyone because it stopped for no one.

thinking about learning to play the trumpet..................

pinky promise the next issue of my newspaper will come out tomorrow. and then the week after that, i'll be sending out a comics-only edition. it'll have been worth the wait! verylittlenews.org

There are but FOUR records left. Thank you for your voracity! If you want one, please pounce before they're gone forever. The music will always be free as in speech & beer both but this Art Object was made in limited quantities by limited humans.

technology has come so far and yet hold music still sucks. how is this possible

traffic cones are so adorable i struggle to put it into words. they are a manifestation of humanity's bottomless well of kindness and are sacred to me in ways most things are not. um. i think. anyway, i enjoy footage and pictures of traffic cones a normal amount

i think it should be socially acceptable to cut the vents on someone's jacket if you do it really carefully

the world is a lot more beautiful since @nickyflowers.com told me they were working on a project about traffic cones so i started taking videos of traffic cones in strange situations to send them

wow linkedin has possibly the most heinous email notification preferences page i have ever seen. it should be illegal to make me click through a new page for all 50 different types of emails they want to send me

i was really not prepared for how ready random strangers would be to gender me as male. i can literally introduce myself as my birth name & ppl will immediately switch to [male equivalent of birth name]. doesn’t necessarily bother me but it is making the whole legal name thing a little awkward

have been spending the past week or so passively trying to understand the fact that perspective distortion is due to relative distance instead of focal length

Peeping Tom (1960) is so cool because i remember reading about and thinking wow i bet i would love this pervert horror movie soooo much. and then i did. but that was before i even knew about the elaborately staged dance sequence!

frankenstein is a big guy who groans and has bolts that come out of his neck. he is not a metaphor and his name is frankenstein. everyone else needs to get a grip.
