why did the atlantic and the cut publish nearly identical trend pieces about "loneliness influencers" by two different writers today? they talk about the exact same people and include the same anecdotes about them. so weird

would you kindly get out of my fucking mentions please

Oh here it is, @albertburneko.bsky.social has a way with words share.google/gU0rHb34XW0W...

I'm still thinking about Under The Silver Lake. The more I think about it the more I like it

they should have to change their name to old guys of today or youth of yesterday

Discovering these at the grocery store has ruined my life. They’re all I think about…

Ppl are so into giving me “tips” that essentially amount to “don’t make a stir fry”

tbh I get why Scorsese + other filmmakers, esp older ones, are interested in AI. They've been around long enough to see the medium change dramatically and the filmmakers who have lasted have been open to incorporating those technological changes into their work. They're wrong, but I can see it

"stir fries are so quick and easy" I just used every bowl and ramekin in my house and my smoke detector is going off

Basically the con of being a Borrower (4" tall person with normal intelligence but proportionally smaller strength) is the cats eating you. The pro is when you steal pills you can get seriously fucked up for a long time.

my friend Danny wrote about how ramp fever is leading to a lot of exploitation of both land and people. I had no idea they didn't grow out west!

I completely agree with this but I think having the editor of playboy write it is intended to ragebait all the 20 year olds who are trying to do gender separatism again rather than actually make the case www.nytimes.com/2026/05/31/o...

Hot tip if you need to eat near penn station there is an inexplicably good sushi counter in a stairwell above a convenience store at 35th bt 7th and 8th. Sushi 35 west

The lawsuit is less about Pattie & more to create a record of defending their trademark from possible infringements. There’s a way to open yourself up to losing the TM if you don’t actively defend it. *I am not a TM atty, & idk your background so you may know way more about this than I do

And I will point out again that Patagonia didn't sue Patty Gonia for having the same name - they're both named after the same thing, after all. The company sued her after she *applied for a trademark to sell branded clothing* with her very similar name.

The way woke ppl are talking about this lawsuit is a good reminder that no ideology has a monopoly on critical thinking skills

A foreign country or corporate espionage firm could just have a spy ride the Acela back and forth from dc to Boston all day every day overhearing loud dude zoom calls and bring down the American economy within like a month

I think if you’re gonna make a movie about “trauma” in 2026 it has to be something totally nuts like a musical or a silent film or something. It can’t just be regular and it ESPECIALLY can’t be horror.

I was making an online reservation for a pretty fancy restaurant and they ask you to upload a selfie so they can recognize you at check in and I accidentally uploaded this

there's an old sailor's rhyme: if Stephen Root be in your show give an episode a go

Tbh when it first came out I avoided seeing under the silver lake bc the trailer made it look like a hipster misogynist wish fulfillment fantasy and i was both completely right and completely wrong

honest question: what is the equivalent meanest movie for Gen X

Just watched UNDER THE SILVER LAKE which seems like the meanest movie ever made about the millennial character. It’s like what LOST IN AMERICA is to boomers

Really enjoying Widows Bay, mainly because “What if you tried to gentrify Innsmouth?” is the most accurate depiction of the North Shore of Massachusetts possible.

Was texting about the news while also texting with Amtrak customer service and accidentally sent their customer service rep this

Ppl gotta stop acting like curry barker is brilliant for making a mid movie at the same age pta was when he made boogie nights

The thing I don’t get about graham platner is that every aspect of your personal life and history is going to cause scandal and deeply compromise the causes in which you say you believe why not just be a weird asshole as a private citizen instead of a political candidate???

“The Graham Platner Campaign” has been a performance art piece. We thank everyone for their engagement with our work.

The indie sleeze stuff was really fun too but the millennial experience I think young people really missed out on that is impossible to recapture is when house of balloons came out

Every time Amtrak gets delayed (about 2/3 of the time I am on Amtrak) I get so mad about how I live in a third world country for no reason

The secret waiting level at Moynihan has become a TikTok dance studio. They’re are five groups of people filming down here all w competing music. I WILL be in the background on my phone

learning dr orna from couples therapy is one of those rich park slope psychos who lets her dog run around unleashed at prospect park is throwing all of her advice into a new and unflattering light

film and tv allusions ppl have made re: this 20 second video - abel ferrara - david fincher - christopher nolan - jacob's ladder - midnight meat train - the warriors - predator 2 - blade - willy wonka - russian doll - twin peaks - "a24"

last night i watched a movie which featured michael winslow and he did not do a single sound effect

It’s fun to do thought experiments but it’s annoying when people who profess to be influenced by Marxist thought will discuss every reason the left is unpopular instead of it just being that we have no money. That’s really all it is

we need a phrase for when you have met someone like one time before and you both only vaguely remember it but are encountering them again and being re-introduced. "nice to see you again" is a lie and "nice to meet you" seems cold

subtle.

If u don’t know low cinema is Jon Wilson’s 35(ish) seat single screen theater in ridgewood. They play lots of cool weird stuff as is befitting Jon Wilson. Also he is often there if you’d like to go be weird to him. It’s really neat

It’s manhattanhenge today

Went to low cinema tonight. Really good bathroom decor

And we are live! Massive thanks to everyone who contributed to this. Reading your posts made me so much madder than I ever knew was possible

What kind of job is it where you have to “make decks”. I feel like this is referenced a lot in terms of office jobs but I don’t know what it means

Light went out in my subway car and it’s kind of a vibe

Hate him playing off the trump terminology but it’s funny to imagine he called it COGE for crip reasons

Just insane. New Jersey Gov Mikie Sherrill says DHS just denied state health inspectors full access to Delaney Hall. She's calling for it to be shut down.

CURRENT NEEDS AT DELANEY HALL as prisoners are being gassed and beaten inside. Two large garbage cans At least 4 people at all times to manage the tent area, and support people being released and family members. We especially need people to take relief shifts from around 9pm until morning.

Since Covid the club shows have gotten steadily worse and the DIY shows, while fewer than before Covid, are steadily better. Lots of really talented young comics who clubs are never gonna book but you can see them in the back of a bar on a Wednesday for whatever you decide to throw in the hat.

he has found a new headquarters

I think it’s true now for comedy like it is for music - if you want to see interesting stuff, go to little diy shows in the bars in your city. A lot of them suck but a good litmus test is that if there’s a trans person on the flyer the show is probably going to be good
