It's so funny to see smart comments about chainsaw man in that thread ie how it's making fun of shonen tropes and the reddit threads are all people being angry. Glad I stopped going there regularly for analysis.

Chainsaw Man is simultaneously worthy of serious discussion for its heartfelt look at society and cycles of abuse and dehumanization, and it's also like, a fantastic nonstop barrage of shitposts

I'm no longer so tired I can't move. Kind of disappointing, really.

Stg if I had to read all the depraved sex stuff discussed and nobody talks about things that actually have political import I'm gonna be so pissed

WHAT

Is the implication Nuzzi has information that the assassination attempt was faked?

The next Lizza piece is gonna be a doozy

Thanksgiving is easily the holiday I miss the least. Really an also ran failure between Christmas and Halloween which are real holidays.

It's not this platform. It's all of society that hates AI

I have some virus living in my sinuses and I basically cannot move because I am so exhausted lol

Breath of Fire fans on wplace please join me in the wasteland of Borger, Texas wplace.live?lat=35.59535...

one of the biggest changes from Trump 1, where there was weekly turnover (remember Scaramucci?) is that Trump has been determined not to give anyone "wins" by firing his guys no matter how embarrassingly they fuck up but now that he's losing on every front, there appear to be limits

Fujimoto can do as much shonen battle shit as he wants as long as he keeps drawing new fumikos

I am awake only for chainsaw man. Will Fumiko show up this week? Probably not, but it's always possible.

Well I definitely have a throat cold. Have to get masks for tomorrow.

There is no turkey in Japan. Students have never seen a turkey before in their life. #LetsThrowMarshmallows marshmallow-qa.com/messages/262...

PUNCHBOWL: “.. GOP members messaged us over the weekend saying that they, too, are considering retiring in the middle of the term. Here’s one particularly exercised senior House Republican: @punchbowlnews.bsky.social

いい太ももの日だったそうで

anyway noah smith knows what he's doing

Watching a reaction channel react to episode 20, and it's so good. The big critique of Eva was always that why are such big life and death stakes being controlled by such adolescent, Freudian, gender shenanigans, but that's cuz that's how it actually works. It's all Freudian gender shenanigans.

Two of the girls in my class who knew who Taylor Swift was also really like Ariana Grande.

Still think this turned out really well. I finally have found something I don't get buyer's remorse over.

online politics is a fight between cosmopolitan Americans and American nationalists in Nigeria and India

I’m a cynic but i do believe relentless economic punishment could be effective if it became a mass movement

I've designed tomorrow's lesson so if a student wants to just copy answers directly from the textbook they can succeed, and if they want to be creative and lead their group in a novel direction, they can also do that. Surely there is no flaw I have overlooked

"In late 2019, according to the brief, Meta designed a 'deactivation study,' which found that users who stopped using Facebook and Instagram for a week showed lower rates of anxiety, depression, and loneliness. Meta halted the study and did not publicly disclose the results"

every social media company is bad but Meta really is uniquely evil

I was pretty much entirely for the decriminalization of psychedelics, I've found them useful, but seeing the rogue's gallery of grifters pushing for that now, I'm thinking nah this is probably like sports betting, it'll be a disaster.

Something deeply funny about the fact that conservatives depend on foreign labor to stoke the fires of their own rage

the Kirk assassination was only two months ago. entirely too many events are happening, that feels like the better part of a year ago

this is actually very funny

It's the way that Twitter's new location feature exposed the fact that most of the "Japanese nationalists" on Twitter were from Europe and that most of the big MAGA propaganda accounts were from Russia/India/Bangladesh so Elon shut that shit down literally just hours later lmaooo

“Frog, can you be as wonderful as this?” said Toad as he danced all over the stage. There was no answer.

Olivia is a hero for making people sex negative.

incredible things are happening on x, the every-scam app

One of the artists rejected the request. Alas, we carry on

As I said I finished the main game of Rise of the Golden Idol and the way to my heart is setting anything in the 1970s. And taking the Golden Idol Obra Dinn mysteries and setting it in the 1970s is how you make a game I'll easily put alongside Day of the Tentacle or Sam and Max.

The entire government is realizing this after the elections that just happened and that politics is "not over"(tm). Which means things are going to get more insane, because they're going to start getting desperate.

lmao that polling must be apocalyptic for the GOP

People in supermarket simulator buy a ton of powdered sugar. Just an unhealthy amount.

Homeownership is like boomer Bitc**n. It seems like a dumb scam. Maybe I am still just an unsophisticated rube but I don't want to own a house in BFE

I wonder if it's all downstream from housing. People in Japan live in giant apartment blocks, there's no suburbia so wages don't have to support stupid lawns and cars.

So Bezos is in them too then?

People in the UK should feel grateful anyone wants to live there after they completely destroyed their culture and economy out of loyalty to an inbred pedophile gentry.

I'm sure some econ whiz has written a paper but I don't understand why food is so cheap in Japan when it has to import food, and America produces its own food and yet it's so expensive. What is going on there?

We have reached one of the more dangerous parts for the coalition, which is Trump is still popular enough internally with the base that you can't break with him, but not breaking with him probably dooms the party in general elections. Dems won double digit R by PVI races a couple weeks ago.

People who believe all signs of American fascism are Russian or Israeli infiltration when America exports right wing and evangelicalism around the world? The call is coming from inside the house.
