i am sorry but you cannot tell me that pokemon has been around for 30 years

best halftime show in recent memory and probably the most boring game in recent memory as well. at least it was funny watching the eagles absolutely boat race kc last year

You can criticize the politics all you want, but you gotta give it up for the artistry of the production.

i think a key part of woke 2 needs to be relentlessly mocking TPUSA types for their repeated insistence that they need a safe space where nobody is allowed to criticize their horrible, horrible attempts at music, movies, and literature

i think that was the best produced super bowl halftime show ever

this is considerably better mic'd and mixed than any halftime show in recent memory

i'm not going to get angry at any artist for collecting their bag unless they're taking money to promote a product that is committing active harm to the world (e.g. crypto or genAI)

this is a function of the current state of the media economy. there are fewer projects being developed, which means fewer jobs available. meanwhile, super bowl commercials have become tentpole productions with movie-sized budgets and are able to pay talent in a way that the studios aren't

it's a crime to pay for the rights to "everybody (backstreets back)" and not include the line "am I sexual"

the coinbase commercial felt like it was going to fix the vibe deficit caused by the dunkin ad for a sec and then it caused it to deteriorate further

just thinking about the mechanics of staging a suicide in such a way that nobody squeals. also thinking about what it could take to get someone involved in such an affair to come out publicly

Could they have simply gotten the date wrong? Maybe. Did they? No, Trump killed him.

Jeffrey Epstein died on August 10th. In the Epstein files, there is what appears to be a draft DOJ press release announcing his death that is dated August 9th. (It’s here: www.justice.gov/epstein/file...)

did my workout at midnight and once again i feel ready to fight god. unfortunately it is also 1am so there’s not much i can do with this energy

A desperate plea sent to me by a Minneapolis resident who's been on the front lines since the beginning of the ICE occupation:

stefania constantini, one half of the italian mixed doubles curling team and skip of the women’s team, hello

My favorite artifact in the "you don't need AI to do art" discourse is, of course, screenwriter Dan O'Bannon's sketch of the facehugger to explain it to Giger.

Nodding gravely

And here’s what a lot of folks aren’t ready to hear. THIS is why the US is becoming a fascist state. There’s fascists in every country. But what allows them to take hold here is that we don’t have an opposition party. If we don’t refuse to vote for these people anymore, this won’t end.

renaming everything that had been named for trump needs to be one of the first things we do after we take the country back

wake up man. i think you had one too many PBRs and blacked out here in the bathroom. bartender wanted me to come and check in with you. yeah, the song playing…. elon musk? the tesla guy? no dude this is grimes. i heard it at american apparel and had to put it on the jukebox. are you ok?

The Wright Museums Instagram page is HILARIOUS. Think The Office but it's the staff at a Museum for Black History. Better believe this is on my list of places to visit. Gentle Spades "I'm a veteran"

agreed that the public response is the real story here

gonna keep it 100 with you i’m not sure why one of the most racist men in american history posting something racist—which he has done dozens of times before—is especially newsworthy at this point

i….. i don’t know what to do with this. help me please my brain is breaking

It’s funny they still feel the need to go with “phantom staffer/we got hacked/bad medication combo” still when their whole message for the past year has been “fuck your feelings” They’re still bitch made weaklings

maybe you shouldn’t have tariffed all the fucking lumber we need!!!!! jesus christ

leading indicator for the impending LLM collapse imo

Trump took down the racist photo of the Obamas as apes, which was the right thing to do, it shows he’s willing to listen to criticism and hopefully, HOPEFULLY, learn from it

i am admittedly not yet a parent but i just can’t understand the frame of mind that causes a parent to treat their child like this. don’t you want your kid to develop an identity, personality, and way of living that is separate from your own? isn’t that the whole point of childhood?

kamala harris's 6-7 themed zoomer digital marketing group has already changed its name after getting made fun of. for some reason they changed it to "68." we're witnessing a level of political instinct never before imaginable

perhaps the most cursed thing i’ve ever recorded just dropped on the ill conceived patreon: www.patreon.com/posts/150071...

hello, our (@junlper.beer and @bosh.worstpossible.world's) dramatic reading of the zootopia abortion comic is now available on the ill conceived patreon. thank you for your attention to this matter

i think that if pizza hut did a full rebrand to return to their 90s positioning as a relatively upscale fast casual establishment they'd be able to find their track again

Who is buying this

you might not be ready to hear it but bananarama in their music video for “cruel summer” are the hottest any woman has ever been

i'm not interested in debating bbq vs grilling or how to cook chicken thighs or anything like that. i'm solely curious about what position someone else could have taken that caused the contrarian synapses that rule her brain to fire off "barbecue is really easy, actually"

While reporting this, I had something happen that's never happened. A comms rep for one of the co's disputed my reporting and said what I was telling them was untrue because it was not in Grok, xAI's chatbot. I was looking directly at the files. And this person was using AI to challenge the truth.

i don’t think this has ever happened to me but it would be kinda fun if it did

big bill shakes is goated. sorry but i will never entertain the argument that he’s overrated. to write something like this and have it ring with such tremendous clarity four centuries later would be incredible if he pulled it off once but he did it dozens of times

I had soooooo much fun on TWOAPW getting to talk about the best and worst game in the world

im only in favor of this change if they add 3 training modules that talk about when they can and cant use masks. we need more training modules

America: where you can sell a random “wellness” drink at CVS, claim it “may” somehow “reinforce” your immune system, and literally call it “The Flu Shot.”

truly the best representation money can buy
