CHOTINER: And you didn’t know this person - what did you call him again? CELEBRIMBOR GREATEST OF THE ELVEN SMITHS: Right, his name was Annatar but CHOTINER: And you taught him to create a ring harnessing all his malice and cruelty? CELEBRIMBOR: Well I mean I was deceived CHOTINER: So you’ve said

theres one guy in this webpage getting so mad about this steam is coming out of his ears and you know who that guy is...!

Imo a lot of mostly white cis men, though not exclusively, do not understand why art contains heavy themes. Because they engage on a pure aesthetic level they lack any sort of insight on or purpose to using the thematic space, so they see for example Madoka Magicka & ignore the feminist themes. 1/6

Go home eliminationists, we already have Autism Speaks and we don’t want them either.

Had a great time talking to @parkermolloy.com about my work on the AI bubble www.readtpa.com/p/the-man-ca...

Dude watching some dude movie on the train. Tried cross referencing the actors; should’ve gone with my gut and guessed The Usual Suspects, which is what it was. I am a palimpsest carrying impressions of movies I’ve never seen.

Genuinely don't think I've seen a better metaphor for modern-day Christianity than this. Self-aggrandizing, plutocratic, white-supremacist, popularity-obsessed, putting oneself on the same level as the savior but unwilling to shoulder the same burden. It's art, just not in the way they intended.

What gets measured gets managed 😬

I used to resist the idea that Democrats are Controlled Opposition, but does, "concede to fascists; scold your base for not supporting you; lose" sound like the behavior of a party that seriously opposes regressive politics?

it just feels like a ~feminist~ way to deflect the story from being about society turning entirely to look autists in the face and tell us our lives aren't worth living and focus instead on the parents of autistic children, who already are the only socially acceptable experts on us

fuck knows what this dipshit's game is but, obviously, answering a call from a coldcaller is a red rag to a bull; your number is now confirmed live to anybody who has bought that data, and you will be prioritised for regular contact by the caller software. in short: NEVER, EVER DO THIS

I support pregnant people taking Tylenol and having their kids vaccinated even if it *doesn’t* cause autism.

Why does he look like a hench-yuppie from a nineties kids movie

Unsurprising. Also it seems pretty clear Elon wasn’t spared this, and it’s part of why he’s so utterly fucked up.

hex fascists 🙏🖤

Absolutely 100% this. If they give up citizenship (which is what they have to do in the US to stop paying taxes) we also win.

Hate crimes against queers don't count.

Guess what you can only have tylenol now, the upcoming deluge of autistic Scanner enfants terribles will remake the United States.

A lot of people are posting a really stupid and wrong diagram, so I've taken the liberty of annotating it.

Oh they’re NEVER never getting those cancelers back are they

every company on earth demanding its underpaid workers use the garbage generator machine for everything and now they're mad that all they're getting is garbage

LMAO

Nintendo, it’s time to use your legendary litigiousness prosocially for the first last and only time. C’mon, garnish ICE’s income for the rest of time, what are you afraid of. Go on, you fucks.

Trump is pronouncing "acetaminophen" the right way. by Ezra Klein

Nothing says “land of the free” like armed agents of the state saying “show me your papers if you want your daughter back” bsky.app/profile/nbcb...

BREAKING: In place of Jimmy Kimmel’s return, Sinclair and Nexstar will broadcast 90 minutes of Ezra Klein criticizing you for not reading “The Bell Curve”

Keep it up everyone, if we just keep making games with women and pronouns we can eventually ensure that the chuds never get to enjoy a single new video game ever again

I like Jimmy Kimmel. I really do. I have no issues with him. I'm talking about something very different. Kimmel was only suspended. But he's back now. Karen Attiah and all the other Black journalists are still fired. Y'all do know how to fight, when you want to. But you don't really want to. 🤷🏿‍♂️

Too late, Batman. Once this Tylenol floods the city's water supply, my wiki won't run out of editors ever again

Shout out to all the remaining Rapture believers, congrats on not being good enough, get tribulated nerds.

me telling my grandkids what it was like to have vaccines

I know antifa isn't a real organization because I don't get 40 texts a week from them asking for donations.

i hope all the trans girls in the area didn’t need to wade through too many messages from desperate bigots to get to their t4t hookups.

Everything about this headline is hilarious. And the YouTube views are a reflection of how wildly the right has overblown the number of people paying attention.

placing my bet in the “solution to autism” is to just stop allowing testing for it and placing people currently diagnosed with it on a list

Calling the new anti-mask law a “troubling betrayal that California’s local law enforcement community will not soon forget” when the feds concealing faces exists to enable illegal actions without consequence just tells us you know lawbreaking is happening in your ranks and don't care to stop it

In 2020, while reporting on a protest for a local newspaper I was wrongfully arrested by officers who were masked or concealed their names/badge numbers. I had photos of two of their faces and sued, but the department refused to provide information to identify them, and the lawsuit was dismissed

This may be the perfect lay-example of the problem of probabilistic generation. You can train one on English text, process English morphemes, ensure it adheres to the statistical regularities of English, and it will still generate non-words. And you see that instantly, because you know English.

One stark marker of how much our society has devolved in just a few years is Bob Iger personally got on a call to convince us to let Disney/HULU make the 1619 Project. That America no longer exists.

Disney adults having more backbone than Potter adults is terrifying

It's actually so depressing realizing how performative trans ally ship has been to the majority of y'all. Disney adults are out here cancelling multi thousand dollar weddings over this. Yet trans people were being 'unreasonable' when we asked you to boycott the HP games and new media.

Damn good on Kier Starmer for making the correct choice on Palestinian statehood after literally all other options were expended

i wish 'disney adults' going medieval rn had the same energy for harry potter.
