Gonna be real with you, this feels like an advertisement for spiritual death

they really need to invent a second type of money these guys can play around with separate from the money I need to buy food. Business Money. Money 2

Excellent work by new NYT headline writer Werner Herzog

Jeffrey Goldberg thinking he was being pranked and then realizing he was actually just in the war plans group chat is such a good microcosm of how it feels to be alive right now, everything seems fake until you realize it’s actually real and incredibly stupid

The New York Times just pushed this let’s-justify-the-attacks on diversity op-ed. As soon as I looked at the author, I knew exactly who he was from past reporting: The co-founder of an anti-“woke” asset management firm that he started with Vivek Ramaswamy.

We've always been at war with Greenland.

Racoon: what is this stuff? Me: it’s our garbage Racoon: it’s delicious, I understand why you chase me away from it, do you eat it? Me: no we’re trying to get rid of it Racoon: ok I guess I don’t fucking understand at all then

Elon Musk and co. are innovators. They look at something like the trolley problem and come up with a novel solution that will somehow kill an extra couple dozen people AND derail the train.

There are many different ways to prevent larger animals from eating out of your bird feeders, but so far none of them have proven a match for me

Airlines forget why they originally started offering peanuts. It's because they were also offering a prodigious amount of booze. This should be addressed.

Ah damn it turns out this whole political system relies on false assumptions about how big of an asshole someone could be

Pretty fucked up that the only alternative to dying is getting old

you hear Crouching Tiger and you're thinking, well that's gotta be the most fearsome and best camouflaged creature in this title,

‘We Must Protect The Pure Aryan Bloodline,’ Says Child After 9 Minutes Of Unsupervised Facebook Access

It would have been so crazy if JFK dodged the bullet at the last moment thus activating Witch Time and allowing for a powerful combo counterattack. But unfortunately that was not possible back then
