grosera, pero precisa

I have seen posts about the "medbed conspiracy" and I'm choosing to believe that it means each of us will be assigned a bear.

One thing I've learned from the Internet is that a lie needs 0% proof to be believed, but the truth requires thousands of pages of proof and still won't be believed.

the brain of the median voter needs to be studied for science

Literally this comic

(delicately swirls the glass) "Mmmm, yes, a very fine importer, Jesus Fucking Christ International...."

It's not quite the Lizardman Constant, but I couldn't help but chuckle seeing the 1% of atheists who said yes.

So much of the humor of Yes Minister/Yes, Prime Minister is universal... until they throw in the odd church appointment. www.youtube.com/shorts/fGhfM...

Happy Birthday, George Gershwin. www.youtube.com/watch?v=u3uS...

A John Adams quote that is stuck in my head for whatever reason. Maybe because it feels like we who would rather tune out politics cannot afford to right now. www.masshist.org/digitaladams...

Just a sweet, nostalgic song about a violent attack on critical infrastructure (Verse 2). youtu.be/A_HvBDorpzE?...

my daughter really captured my essence in this portrait of me “at work”

reporting all of my own posts to bluesky moderation service for being too based

This is the meaning of "rhetorical constructs" - people who appeal to "the Global South" the way anti-abortion activists do "the unborn," a voiceless and largely nonspecific mass of ultimate moral victims you can cite to justify anything you want because you don't actually need to listen to them.

No one before The Kidz ever valued pleasure.

Three major sins in my book: avidity, cupidity, and humidity.

CHOTINER: So. Good to see you again. CHOTINER'S CHILDHOOD BULLY: Is it? CHOTINER: No. CHOTINER'S CHILDHOOD BULLY: So how's this work? You ask a bunch of dumb questions and try'n make me look stupid? CHOTINER: Basically. CHOTINER'S CHILDHOOD BULLY: Okay, let's DO this, Chotinerd.

I've had it done SO many times to me. Now I finally get to return the favor. 😈

The thing that people forget to remember about the Baberaham Lincoln statue is its sculptor.

I really do fixate on the most random-ass old music in existence. (But also, this somehow slaps?) youtu.be/243KY98_BrY?...

I want buying something to actually mean owning it again, not just...renting it or whatever.

The internet should be a place you can find weird stuff if you want but the weird stuff should not be able to sealion you there

Far from a new point, but I totally get why people from other countries would be baffled by our TV ads that say, "Ask your doctor if Sybarxeljsis is right for you" and *never mention what Sybarxeljsis is supposed to do.*

Like I guess I just don’t understand fighting about whether the US should take up its throne of the international order when the US is currently busy stabbing itself to death. This isn’t something we’re capable of doing regardless of if we want to or if it’s a good idea

Sorry, I know I'm taking the emotional bait here. But I dunno, I get a wee bit sensitive about terror attacks in New York. I do when Gen Z randos crack jokes about 9/11, and I sure do when some mass media chucklefucks joke about launching a terror attack on the U.N.

You guys do yourself a favor and look at what Eric Adams wore to Rosh Hashanah services at the Sephardic Lebanese Congregation

🎶"Oh, you boopable snoot, You great, big boopable snoot..."🎶

The difference between 2008 and 2024 is... striking, to say the least.

It's possible I've been missing mention of this in all the voluminous Jimmy Kimmel coverage but... people are conscious of Sinclair's media-political history, yes? Just seems maybe a teensy bit relevant www.nytimes.com/2004/10/11/p...

can usually tell I'm working on something I find stressful because I'll keep muttering "oh I'm very stressed!" to myself, fundamentally am not a million miles away from a Pokemon repeatedly saying its own name

Shana tovah to my Jewish friends and good luck in tomorrow’s Rapture to my Christian ones

eight months of the least fun "told you so" in history

Happy Fall, everyone. youtu.be/WkFhx--p2ow?...

Sixteen years later, still the funniest piece of writing on the internet. I revisit it every year the way some people rewatch It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown or reread A Christmas Carol. You’re either ready to reap this freaky-assed harvest or you’re not.

So hey, does this give me the right to say that attempts to further restrict citizenship are utter bullshit? www.nbcnews.com/data-graphic...

"You couldn't make The Birth of a Nation nowadays," laments D. W. Griffith, "because it's three hours long, very racist, and I am dead."

You guys, I’m not an economist I didn’t even graduate from college, though I do have an advanced degree (but not a fancy one) and even I know this is not a good sign

american english effectively has a high and low dialect, in addition to its various regionalisms, and when people say "working class" they frequently mean that the person speaks Low American English in public appearances, and not anything else

Vaccines save lives. And no, they do not cause autism.

A nice little onigiri triangle

perfect timing to have encountered this rebecca solnit quote this morning

Every emotion feels like it will last forever right up until it fades or straight up vanishes
