This is the first skeet that's going make a 100 million dollar movie for A24.

Holy shit, it really happened. Look, I have a published story! Look at this! www.pikerpress.com/article/1188...

I'm fully Wooferendum about this one specific aspect of the EU

Just to add some extra spice to this take: Morris himself never went to university, and besides investing in the Candy Crush company, is mainly known for horribly mismanaging Derby County Football Club after investing in it

Happy Pride month to the whole LGBTQNJ+ rainbow!

Trump really has remade the whole conservative movement in his image. Weiss is just like him, a petulant power mad imbecile who can do literally nothing right and gets incandescent with rage anytime she is questioned, but also too much of a chickenshit to fire people to their face

The main thing that will kill the “new Industrial Revolution” is that no one is going to insure this shit.

Over at the #MindPalate #recipe site: Possibly the *least* offensive cabbage recipe you've ever run into. Tested and *proved* on a lifelong cabbage skeptic! (Also: it's really nice with duck.) 🍽️ mind-palate.com/witte-kool-i...

Nearly everything is more cheaply made now than it was decades ago, from appliances to clothing to actual houses themselves. Shrinkflation is hitting food packaging. Customer service is nonexistent. The entire internet enshittifying. All while everything costs more and the wealth gap grows.

I’ve been thinking a lot about the shifting baseline concept as applied to everyday life. People in their 20’s now have no memory of highly functional systems, products (from blenders to sweaters) that were so well made you could hand them down across generations, or even helpful customer service.

Gonna be funny when some automatic non-payment software bricks half of all cars in the US for being behind

the AVERAGE car payment is $770???

the "innovation" of the 2010s Silicon Valley was misclassifying employees the "innovation" of the 2020s Silicon Valley is aiming to be making labor, entirely, seem optional

at Hannaford they abbreviate the generic store brand Hannaford products as "HRD" which I can't help parse as "hard" so I'm constantly thinking about like Mike's Hard Macaroni And Cheese

Your Itchy & Scratchy Dollars at work

This is so cool!!!

Wow, do I like this new channel. Jackdaw breaks down some of the most popular lies in paleoanthropology: Might Makes Right, Hierarchy is Inherent, Patriarchy Is Natural, and Man Hunt, Woman Gather. On par with miniminuteman re: debunking mid-century sexist biases. www.youtube.com/watch?v=FHUB...

“It’s June.”

At a previous hospital I worked at, when the CEO was fired for nearly bankrupting the facility, his severance package was more money than every nurse in the entire hospital made in a year... Combined.

📊 Tens of thousands of studies depend on it. Every major drug pipeline uses fluorescent reporters. Shimomura, Chalfie, and Tsien shared the 2008 Nobel for making "the previously invisible, visible." All from jellyfish on an NSF grant. #YourTaxDollarsAtWork

🧪 Then in 1994, Martin Chalfie inserted the gene into bacteria and worms. They glowed green. No dye. No injection. For the first time you could attach GFP to any protein and watch it move inside a living cell in real time. Biology went from snapshots to live video.

🪼 Your tax dollars paid a scientist to squeeze jellyfish through cheesecloth. Osamu Shimomura processed tens of thousands on an NSF grant to understand why they glow. He found a protein that glowed green under UV light. Called it "green protein." Nobody cared. For decades.

Investors insist the stripper really likes them and is interested in their idea for a Koreaan tapas place that’s also a nightclub

The “centre-left” liberals are the modern conservatives in that sense (if they’re not reactionary cryptofascists) and the modern right hates them for making them feel like the petty ignorant chuds they are.

Weird aggressively insecure reactionary egotists just make shit art and can’t even appreciate art by actual conservatives of old whose drive to conserve an outmoded Social Order at least *could* come with intellectual nous. The modern right aren’t even really conservative in that sense at all IMO.

I honestly can’t say if it feels like this happened on June 1 decades ago or June 1 now apnews.com/today-in-his...

When I'm 80 I hope I still hate God and love gold enough to constantly be doing corrupt stock market scams for money I'll never live to spend with a family I don't care enough about to leave any of it to.

Mr.Jones, frighteningly tall and pale Harvard post-grad on a break between getting his chemistry doctorate who turned a senior science requirement into a philosophy of science class and brought in guest speakers about the ethics of the pharmaceutical industry.

Yep. I switched the default search in my browsers to DuckDuckGo for a reason.

thinking the next My Mom visits me enrichment trip is she just has lunch at the thai place next to the local gay bar, she can say hi to Jimmy at the bar later regardless

June 1st

Also your reminder Rebecca Black (yes her) has a very fun very gay dance music album www.youtube.com/watch?v=pEy5...

hey remember when I sent @noahs.bsky.social a gigantic wooden watch, that was fun

anyone else up thinking about how Frankie Valli plays Rusty Millio on THE SOPRANOS but Tony makes repeated reference to the real Frankie Valli, whom characters on the show claim they've met in real life, which begs the question: what does their universe's Frankie Valli look like?

been hearing a lot about "chatgpt" this and "claude" that. listen up chucklefucks: no computer is ever going to cut costs as well as some guys from bain with no experience in your company's market who comes in and fires half of your employees arbitrarily

You weirdos like Brian, right?

Shout out to one of the more boutique sexualities “ he’s an unstoppable pussy hound until he hits 35 and then settles down with a nice man.”

less than three hours remain

heterosexuals. you have 8 hours

bari weiss is one of the few people involved in this who i think actually does believe she is building a personal reputational legacy she will be remembered for she is just too stupid and self-important to realize that the best case scenario remaining for that is "failed to destroy 60 minutes"
