Cyber Fuc*ed. #WorldBollardAssociation

Ryan Grim is a great example of the fact that there are many different types of intelligences. If intelligence was one number that could be captured by IQ, you could not possibly have the same guy losing an argument to an abusive vending machine but also he's smart enough to be able to read.

Meta itself estimates that it's involved in 1/3 of all successful scams in the United States lol

guess what youtu.be/IKX9fGvF63E?...

Cool. What would you call the other wing then? www.nytimes.com/2025/11/03/u...

That face.

Do I get to lib out all day today or is it like a strict 24 hour period before I have to go back to being a cynical doomer? I don't feel like I should have to quit early just because the results came in pretty fast last night.

Remember when we were all wondering what the difference was between the Dems leading in VA and NYC but it being a tight race in NJ and it turned out that the polls in NJ were just dogshit?

Can you imagine if the border patrol asshole hadn't been wearing a bulletproof vest? That sandwich might have killed him and/or caused him to smell the meat and cheese of the sandwich instead of just the more fragrant ingredients!

Hoping that this is due to a server being down or my wifi not working, and not actually the "special weather notice" my phone buzzed about:

Listen, I also hate the Dilbert Guy even though it is very funny that his penis is shaped like Dilbert's head, but I don't think he should be condemned to the painful death that comes from RFK Jr. trying to cure his prostate cancer.

The idea that that would be the role they would recognize him from? Inconceivable!

An electric leaf-blower, while lacking the moral purity of a rake or simply writing a short poem about the leaves, gets you probation. Gas powered leaf-blower sends you straight to jail.

Big, if true.

This story is very good, and now I'm a little annoyed that it seems like Shiv hasn't already written a Dresden Files like 18 novels and 7 short stories and a series of comics about these characters. Well worth your time. About to read the next one: www.frivolouscomma.com/three-card-c...

I had a dream last night that I put an extra trash can under my desk for recycling so I wouldn't be leaving a pile of papers and unfolded boxes and stuff by the stairs to take to the big recycling bin. And when I woke up? I made my dream come true.

You've got a few more hours to listen to your Monsters Mash and your Thrillers and your Werewolf Bar Mitzvah and your vampire by Olivia Rodrigo. Tomorrow when you wake up it's Alice's Restaurant for 26 days straight.

Best Halloween skeet.

October is scary fall, November is cozy fall. We have all of December and (given how long it's gonna take me to get around to taking down the lights) most of January and February to celebrate Christmas.

I think that AI isn't doing a good job when I google something and it just has a paragraph about how it's pretty sure I meant to google something different, followed immediately by the thing I wanted. Presumably they will eventually get rid of the embarrassing correct result.

It occurs to me that a person who is good at Pokemon (with no other science education) has a stronger grounding in how physical systems interact than the HHS Secretary.

Listen, do I sometimes go off on a tangent in multi-post replies and end up... somewhere? Yes, guilty as charged.

The Maine guy has a Nazi tattoo and he's still getting support. I'm sure this is gonna cook Zohran's chances.

Stop (in the name of love) Mandatory wallpaper check! (before you break your phone screen)

I think by now everyone knows that drugs in Halloween candy is a hoax, but (especially with RFK Jr. suspending all food inspection by the FDA/USDA) you should be careful to investigate your child's candy for potentially harmful contamination. For example, unspotted this butterfinger impurity:

If a cool 19 year old called me "absolute himalayan sea salt," did I just get owned, or complimented, or some third thing?

I know three things about Draculas: They eat blood and will kill you to eat your blood They can have any job Dracula CAN get wet.

Tom Brady is as good at color commentating as Bill Belichick is good at coaching UNC.

Yes Tom, absolutely perfect pass, as we watch the safety hold up to avoid sending the WR to the hospital.

SHUT THE FUCK UP TOM BRADY

Gotta love Saquon's commitment to rubbing it in the face of the NY Giants.

If they're going to give Jaxxson Dart an extra yard after he starts his sliding motion, the defense should be allowed to hit him for an extra yard after he starts his slide, right?

Wait, if the Blue Jays come back and win this game, they're gonna play the rest of the series in the morning or at least early afternoon?!?

It might be my favorite joke that in the @nicklutsko.bsky.social song Spirit Halloween Theme Song he gets spooked when a woman on the phone says she is a skeleton. (youtu.be/77cMmCVBT3g?...)

Zoomers [arms clasping meme] half the members of Congress -not remembering 9/11-

This is the perfect description of Wentz. He's moving gracefully, making amazing leaps from tree to tree, but then he has to cross the road, and he knows this is dangerous, and suddenly he does a combination of freeze and go absolutely bananas all at once and a family sedan ends up hitting an oak.

you think it's "gay" to be associated with anything left of center ... *opens manilla envelope* ... and yet, on jan 21, 2025 ... *slides 8x10 photo across table* ... you wore the tutti frutti

Mike Johnson: "If people were so upset about pedophiles then why haven't they been demanding to see what is on my, House Speaker Mike Johnson's, secret burner laptop that is just full of the most disgusting illegal porn you can imagine?!?"

The @nytimes.com decided last year what the story was; Trump II was the righteous punishment visited upon their interns and junior staffers and grandchildren for being so annoying about MeToo and BLM, and once they understood that and repented, they could have democracy back.

"I don't expect anything to be a silver bullet" but...unless someone shows me each of these protests the nihilism posting will continue until morale improves.

When the current owners and leadership of the NYT flees the country to avoid the Woke II winemoms with machetes, I vote we turn the whole thing over to Jamelle Bouie.

You hate (love) to see it:

Is this good?

Between not inviting @sheilkapadia.bsky.social to speak about journalism and making my boy @treblaw.bsky.social sad all the time, I am not officially OUT on Penn State. #PSU #PennState #NCAAFootball #Sports #SportstheHueyLewisandtheNewsAlbum #IWantANewDrug

I gotta say it isn't very fair to be putting all these new MAGA people on a blocklist called "fucking losers." If there is one thing we know about these losers, it's that they are not fucking.

Have you considered that maybe cops are mad about the No Kings protest because they have no choice but to stan a short king?!?
