They will never experience real happiness because people who matter will never like them. They want so badly to be welcomed into society, and to be the cultural tastemakers, but everything about them repulses good, cool people. This will upset them until the day they die.

Fuck it we're day drinking. Stupid freezing rain.

They will kill you for showing up to a protest that—let's be honest—does not ultimately change anything. Or for just being nearby where one might happen. Despite the performative outrage from shitlibs like this, it's actually very understandable that people don't want to risk being murdered.

One noteworthy part of our current political system's ability to preserve itself is that nobody who cares enough about the things happening right now is ever going to have the funding necessary for a successful election campaign.

Very cool that Bluesky managed to perfectly clone all of the features of the old Twitter verification system over here, including whatever it is that makes you post like this when you have the checkmark.

There are many people this could be about, but there is one person right now it is definitely about.

Forecast is calling for nearly two full days of winter weather now, and it was kinda cool when it was going to be snow, but now it looks like mostly just ice. Fuck ice.

It should be less surprising that libs in other countries are also spiteful and do not have an internationalist view of the working class.

Come on. I need this so bad. Please. Please!

Introduce yourself w/ 5 concerts you've been to: Autechre Aesop Rock Nine Inch Nails Dwight Yoakam Yeasayer

It's crazy how all the guys in Skynyrd died in that plane crash and nobody ever heard anything from them or their families ever again. They made so much good music. What a shame.

I basically love every song on St. Anger, and the newest Metallica album too. I know they're all dog ass, but they're also very fun.

The "everything is a distraction" people were simply not built to handle the Epstein stuff. You can't be that libbed up and also expect consequences for anyone in those files. They'll be indistinguishable from hardcore Qanon dead-enders within a few more months. Resisting their way into madness.

Sure Reddit is full of the least funny jokes ever, and maybe they've had some incidents with racial hate and non-consensual porn, but I just can't get my world news and consumer electronics content anywhere else. It's the only place! Besides, My Algorithm™ doesn't show me that stuff so I'm good.

I love to charge all my little devices

"Abolish ICE" is such a restrained demand for what should happen. It's so quaint that there are people who think that's too radical.

You should be able to click the phone like a mouse.

If I get new records from both Everything Everything and All Them Witches in 2026 I think that might fix me.

Who up contemplating they mortality?

I joked once that a bunch of X Dot Com morons clearly hate this site because they think the "blue" in "Bluesky" means it's a place exclusively for Democrats, but now the majority of the morons on here also believe that and think it's a good thing.

Hate when people say Dems are all we've got. The Democratic Party is not one that "we've" "got." Their interests are not ours, and we don't have any influence over their actions. They've fought their base on every meaningful decision for my entire life. They don't need to be changed, but excised.

Sudden urge to buy a food processor and also to put a Pentium/Intel Inside sticker on it.

Not posting anything that will get me onto any official lists tonight, so you'll have to imagine what I would have said about all this.

There are no good excuses for humanizing GenAI software, but the one that goes, "We don't actually understand how human consciousness emerges, so who are we to say if AI is alive or not?" is easily the most dimwitted, cowardly, intentionally obtuse one to deploy.

This is obviously a lie to juice his net worth some more, but if he ever brings this to market, maybe we can finally get this guy Dealt With™ for all the people he murders with this stupid bullshit.

My resolution for 2026 is to get worse. Also more modular synth.

Garlic in a jar is actually fine for cooking and has never once been the reason someone's cooking has been bad, and the only reason a certain type of person complains about it is because they heard someone say "jarlic" on the internet and want to be in on something for once.

A life hack for my fellow Americans: if you stop speeding, the asshole with the bright ass LED headlights will pass you, and thus you won't be blinded anymore.

Y'all have got to stop engaging the Shark Tank guy on here. He is not going to give you universal healthcare if you debate him good enough. He is a billionaire. He is your opponent.

Deer ran into the side of my car. 🆒

Haven't seen one single "actually Jesus was actually a radical socialist actually" post this Christmas season, but I'm not letting my guard down yet.

A cool screenshot from SF3, in which something very interesting is about to happen to this Afrikaner "foreman" at a South African mining company.

For the past several years around Christmas, I have replayed the PS1 classic "Syphon Filter 3" to delight in its ridiculous weapons, strange voice acting, and awkward controls. This year will be no different. :)

If you look up one single "retro" "gaming" "handheld" on YouTube, the algorithm is going to swarm you like flies. You're fucked, buddy.

Speaking of going out of town, if you issued new certificates for your VPN last year before you went to grandma's, it's time to go renew them.

The week before Christmas is always the hardest part of the year because you have to save all your podcasts and streams to watch when you're out of town.

Why did everyone decide to hate polyester for a while there?

I've been using Firefox for almost exactly 20 years now. I've seen Mozilla do some really stupid and annoying things to this browser, but never bad enough to make me abandon it for Chrome or one of its million reskinned clones. This is the first time I'm seriously testing alternatives.

Is the internet not loading right for y'all today too?

A hot take I honestly believe is that 2025 actually *was* the year of Linux on the desktop, and all the resisters and naysayers will fall in line over the next decade as Windows becomes even more broken and invasive.

I still don't know what a "Tron: Ares" is and it's a really weird name for an album, but it's always a good year for music when there's new NIN

People think they want a car that drives fast, but what they actually want is a car that FEELS like it's driving fast. 65 MPH in a GTI feels like nothing. 65 MPH in a Pontiac Vibe feels like you're doing NASCAR shit.

Moron from TV show for fawning over toilet paper holder entrepreneurs comes up with his most profound thought yet: "Healthcare profiteers like myself would never willingly provide services for reasonable rates"

I'm glad the American media had fun with making Livvy Nuzzy think she was on some Lana Del Rey shit for a minute because she wrote a book about fucking the Kennedys' weird iguana offspring, but the time has come for everyone to shut the fuck up about it.

Nintendo announces major investment into Dolphin, the popular emulator which cannot and will not run any official Nintendo GameCube ROMs, and will send 20 FBI agents to your location if it finds "Super Smash Bros. Melee (USA) (En,Ja) (Rev 2).iso" on your hard drive.

I don't need to see anything more about Sam Altman. I am already aware that he needs to be dealt with. You could not tell me he sucks in a new way.

It's official. The hottest trend of the 2025 holiday season is the take all your money out of the bank challenge. Don't miss out on this epic viral phenomenon!

guy who has never seen a single crowdfunding project in his entire life:

They've got Wikipedia Wrapped now and idk what I'm supposed to do with this information.

They should invent a way out other than through.
