[ROB ZOMBIE, ABOUT TO WRITE ONE OF THE BEST SONGS EVER MADE] you ever think about the car grandpa munster drives

"I DON'T NEED YOU TO FUCKING REWRITE WHAT I'VE JUST WRITTEN!"

Never am able to Unsee this phenomenon in political commentary now and boy am I angry at the universe about this fact

I don't say this basically ever, but this is far far too good to be an ad

What I’ve taken in over the last couple years is that when people have an irrationally outsized emotional response to doing a task,90% of the time it is because they can’t do it — not that they won’t do it. They can’t. And most people will die trying to prove why that’s someone else’s fault.

Whenever you hear someone invoke the unitary executive, remember the image below. This was an inevitable result of the unitary executive theory: Empowering a president to tyrannically destroy institutions that ensured our government reflects the rule of law rather than his personal whim.

The whole point of democracy is so one person's derangement does not become everybody's problem. It's social hygiene. The fact the richest men in the West are a mix of grotty twelve year olds and deranged apocalypse fanatics is a problem, and we should be honest about it.

weird day to be feeling lonely

you may find yourself behind the wheel of a vehicle women don’t like

remember when

Cannot vocalize how befuddled I was that that was an ad *for* a phone

more and more I am convinced a good share of why Trump 2 is so much worse than before is because of what Elon did to Twitter. it's like those group chats where people gassed themselves up to join ISIS, scaled up a millionfold

read item 5, then read the rest of the incredibly repetitive list full of euphemisms and jargon

it's all so hard

I am happy that we can repay the Germans with amusing compound nouns of our own now.

This is the second most embarrassing thing I've ever seen.

my favorite robert redford story is that mike nichols considered him for dustin hoffman's part in THE GRADUATE. during their conversation nichols asked redford something like, "have you ever struck out with a girl?" and redford's response was basically, "i don't understand the question"

evergreen

His final photo '10:28:24 AM' seconds before the 2nd tower came down is just astonishing #September11

rarely have I more acutely felt the dynamic by which Dems are held responsible for the rhetoric of every random left-leaning person on the internet and Republicans are not even asked to answer for their own personal words

Not to interrupt production at the takes factory but they should probably identify and catch the actual killer before we decide what it all means.

What an expertly called shot

If you fell down that first hole in Hollow Knight Silksong that took you back to the beginning, you have to repost this. That’s the rule.

"It's not MSNBC anymore, Lemon. It's MS NOW. We bought the name off of a defunct multiple sclerosis awareness organization. It wasn't cheap, but we were able to save some money by selling Brian Williams to a Saudi prince who wanted to expand his harem."

David Byrne came to my band’s show at a gay bar in Bed-Stuy and sang This Must Be The Place with us and I still haven’t processed it

Patient, sobbing: But Doctor, I AM Pagliacci! ChatGPT: Apologies. I didn't realise when recommending Pagliacci's epic show to cure your depression that you were the genius himself. I'm impressed! With regards to your initial question, I can recommend seeing the Great Clown Pagliacci.

i want to believe

Need to cheer myself up so here's the best Twitter post ever. It spawned one billion bad ripoffs but it's a beautiful magic trick. You don't just read it in his voice: he said it now. This quote is real.

It's Time To D-D-D-D Dune!

Needed this reminder today.

I thought this moment during the Ezra Klein-Chris Hayes podcast was particularly profound www.nytimes.com/2025/06/28/o...

formula one is fine but nothing is as good as oval racing

"pragmatism" is often just a convenient word for cowardice

Didn’t buy something on sale because the price per unit didn’t work out to have real savings and then said “you know that’s how they get ya” out loud.

i wrote this in late february. now the wave is really crashing. and it still feels like far too many people are pretending it’s not.

Yes. According to Army protocol, congressional staff are VIP Code 5, with a rank equivalent to a two-star general/admiral. Members of Congress are of course significantly higher. I have never seen USCP, FPS, or any other federal LEO treat any Member with anywhere near this disrespect and violence.

A British tabloid is reporting more honestly on this shit than the New York Times. He's not gonna fuck you, Sulzberger. At least not in the way you'd like.

i'm sure there are reasons they can't but these 17 should really just keep publishing as explicit counter-programming

thinking a lot today about the way watching a dude on youtube in the middle of a crazy protest in 2020 decide to do an interview and walk *maybe* a half block away to find somewhere quiet to talk and how jarring it was to see, like, the actual borders of the thing

successful candidates cannot be too far afield of public opinion but it is actually more important than they demonstrate a strong sense of independence and self-possession. poll-testing selects for people who CANNOT DO THIS

In disordered discourse: Engagement > accuracy Performance > governance Emotion > evidence Identity = target The logic of the algorithm now structures political speech. It rewards those who dramatise difference and punish deviation from the tribe.
