With a billion dollars, I'd hire an army of Pinkertons to run the residents of Lebanon, TN out of town. I'd then bulldoze the entire city and pave it over.

QRP with the doctor you'd trust leading the hantavirus response instead of RFK Jr. How about three?

Historian of abolition here, history tells us how we got here, to put it succinctly “John Brown was hanged for treason and Robert E. Lee was not.”

The VA Redistricting Commission was formed in 2020 to take redistricting power away from the Legislature and effectively throw it to the same conservative VA court that made today's ruling. The constitutional amendment should've been worded to abolish this commission altogether.

One side is like “can we disenfranchise all the Black voters by this weekend” and the other is like gotta follow the rules that govern the rules that control the rulebook

This is 40-year old me playing BG3 for a half hour solo twice a week, versus 25-year old me playing 3 hours of online L4D2 every night.

Sometimes the music takes you.. to the ER #metalsky

American society has this one neat trick to see who the bad guys are in real time: Protestors on college campuses are always vindicated in the end.

As a Trekkie from birth: I love new Star Trek overall, but I am exhausted with the "Is Starfleet good?" episodes. Because the answer is always "Of course it is." And it should be if we're still treating Star Trek as an optimistic version of humanity.

Am I not supposed to refer to Clair de Lune as “a banger”?

No one who works 12 hours a day, six days a week has adequate time to exercise. You're not working, you're "working."

Announcing my new think tank.

Trans rights are human rights.

This country is exhausting.

We don’t want AI slop. Stop sending us AI slop. Stop wasting our time with AI slop. It doesn’t sound good. It’s antithetical to our core values. You didn’t even make it. Knock it off.

Makin' my way downtown, walkin' fast Faces pass and I'm hellbound

In this manner, Fox News is more honest inasmuch as they openly admit their right wing stances against MSNBC's illusion of being progressive.

Sorry, folks. Sounds like the civil war has been postponed due to white shooter

Kind of feels like in the past 48 hours Online has Donkey Kong punch-dived down a long chasm into an even deeper sublayer of hell

What is your all-time favourite video game? 🎮 🕹️ The modern age of games is chock-full of amazing stuff, but Chrono Trigger endures as my favorite. Peak SNES-era RPG with perfect gameplay, narrative, and music. And this scene still gets me 30 years later.

Just thinking about this tweet

If the alternative kids can let go of Neil Gaiman, the wizard kids can let go of Harry Potter

2010: I'm going to a foreign country. What vaccines do I need to get beforehand? 2025: I'm going to a foreign country. What vaccines should I get while I'm there?

A friend of mine has a pathological hate for the entire state of Maryland. As in, we once did a 45-minute detour through WV in order to avoid driving down an empty 270 at night. Turns out he got into a traffic accident a couple of decades ago and decided to hold the entire state responsible.

First they came for Bill Clinton, and I said, yes, that man is a sex pest, get him

You have not experienced Shakespeare until you have read him in the original Klingon.

New Nine Inch Nails hit just the way I needed it to in 2005 when I was 20. New Nine Inch Nails hits just the way I need it to in 2025 now that I'm 40. Guess it wasn't just a phase.

Having applied to thousands of jobs in the last 15 years and having received responses from a few dozen, I believe this is the only ethical use of ChatGPT.

What if the reaction wasn't about trying to convince Anil to stop apologia for AI but rather not having to hear AI apologia because it's annoying? Also, tech that talks kids into suicide not getting instantly shut down is not the fault of scolding critics. But then most Twitter-famous types...

As it turns out, you can beat democracy by saying "fuck you, make me."

One of the consequences of not having a primary in 2024 is that we didn't have candidates talking about policies like M4A or marijuana reform. Instead we got higher border security and further investment in our already "lethal fighting force."

Still blows my mind that MTV (and VH1) chose irrelevance by going all in on reality TV when bands and artists are still spending heinous amounts of money on music videos for promotional material. Like all of those videos are making fractions of pennies on YT; Drag Race can't be cheaper than free.

dril from the top rope 💀

I run into a lot of online centrists who seem to go on nonstop with "the problem with the left is (thing that nobody has ever done)" or "the problem with the left is (thing that only liberals do)"

Looking ahead: How do we get the the Vice President to start a relationship with ChatGPT

They tried to ban music in the 70s because they thought there were subliminal messages hidden in the recordings, but now we have a machine that convinces people to do murder-suicides and it’s being haphazardly and hurriedly installed into every aspect of our lives

a terrible game of Guess Who?

Every day, one of my coworkers starts the day in the groupchat with "[cheerful day of the week], let's have a good day!". Every Thursday is "Little Friday" and I take an intense amount of psychic damage every time I read it.

King shit.
