Man if Butch and Sundance hit NOW, there wouldnt be room for anything else on AO3

jokes about the confederacy are always funny, but you gotta think about it in terms of "Supernatural lasted 5x longer than the Confederacy", which is absolutely hysterical

it's so funny to see America's health insurance companies be like "look. If there's one thing we love it's denying you care. but we ran the numbers - and we cannot BELIEVE we're saying this - and it's cheaper for us to just pay for the vaccines than deal with you going to the ER."

Sneakers is one of my favorite movies. I hope more people watch it.

During Covid, we did a slideshow for Robert Redford's 84th birthday, and it's all him being Extremely Good Looking, if that is helpful to you today.

I wrote about Robert Redford's environmentalism and, obviously, Sneakers.

🚨 It's the TIME 🚨 New video essay about Friendslop, whimsy, the death of the human experience, and why Peak (@aggrocrabgames.bsky.social) is such a wonderful game. Link is in the replies!

The eye exam is the perfect game design. That big E is a great tutorial that teaches you the basic mechanic. But it doesn't baby you and quickly gets hard as they introduce the small and blurry enemies.

I maintain this is the greatest cultural achievement of my lifetime. First ones to it, funniest thing I’ve ever read. And that cake headline made me bawl. A thing I will never forget.

I feel like the last 48 hours have just been the entire world going full NYT Pitchbot. "Whether it's the people on the right saying we should shoot everyone on the left as terrorists, or the people on the left saying we should give everyone on the right health care, both sides are---"

A lot of video-game publishers spend hundreds of millions of dollars chasing after "realistic graphics" and "massive open-worlds" when what players really want is just a shitload of weird little guys

good morning to official髭男dism only. i love this song so fucking much. youtu.be/keOnleW2eak

If only Novax wasn't such an ass, maybe I'd enjoy watching him play. But he is and so I don't. And god, I miss the Federer era.

I hope they nuke this demonic horseshit from orbit

"This isn't the ending I wanted!" Okay. Cool. This is exactly what fanfic is for. Go! Be free! Run wild across the adjective plains, adverbs whipping through your hair.

I considered writing a long carefully constructed argument laying out the harms and limitations of AI, but instead I wrote about being a hater. Only humans can be haters.

Never been a better time to be fat I guess

The racism, like Y I K E S Taylor deserves better.

Whether or not AI can suffer matters less than the suffering its human creators can cause aftermath.site/ai-suffering...

WEIRDEST, CREEPIEST POSSIBLE OLD MAN: Mister Mulder there is more to the world than you know MULDER: I will believe literally anything you say

sometimes you read a book and the premise seems utterly ridiculous and then you read it and it destroys you.

apropos of nothing, if an unknown contact messages out of nowhere with no intro, no context, etc... do NOT reply. no retort is witty enough to justify communicating to scammers that you are one of the ~1% of people credulous enough to reply to scam messages.

Ozzy Osbourne visited my magic shop. He said he'd like to buy some stink bombs. How many? All of them. I had to go through drawers finding every last one. He bought 900 of them. To sign the credit card slip I handed him a shock pen, which he thought was hilarious and bought that too. RIP

Cherie Priest has been a consistent treasure as a writer and a human for decades now, and she's getting very real about the life of a writer in 2025 in this post. Read it and also go buy her book(s).
