When he's not in character Conner O'Malley looks like a divorced Middlebury literature professor from 1987. Just like a guy with a midcentury modern house and two hunting dogs who's spent sixteen years poring over Milton or w/e

they hate us cuz they anus

over on x the everything app some Chicago high school kid named Danny Spud tried to disrupt his school's anti-ICE protest by yelling about how much he loves ICE and then filmed himself getting walloped by a fellow student lmao the quote tweet making fun of him has 3x the likes

AI Stan Lee: check out my new character, the amazing Spider—Man

sorry, can you explain that in rayman's terms?

i just saw someone say that we should strand elon musk on the moon with a camera & a gun. then after he does it, go back and get the camera and publicly broadcast the video 24/7. and make anyone with over $5m watch it every day before theyre allowed to get out of bed wow. sounds like a lot of work!

I've been playing so much Metroid lately that the other night I had a dream where I was just hanging out with a bunch of friends and we were all talking about how cool Samus is

what do you get the autistic kid who has everything

Skeptical about Big Walk because it seems like the hardest Bachman book to adapt into a video game, but I was pleasantly surprised by the movie so I’ll give it a chance

Thinking about SEND HELP and Raimi’s hilariously stubborn resistance to giving us anyone to root for. He remains something like a cross between Old Testament God and an axe-wielding Bugs Bunny.

CW: corny earnestness I've been despairing a bit lately about how much violence and hatred is in my heart these days. so many people I wish were dead. and not peacefully. and while I don't even think this is necessarily wrong, I do think I need to build more of a balance, for the health of my soul

everyone is fighting each other every day for the chance to make you angry. ya gotta make sure you fight for some space to be happy too

coworker walked in on me listening to Pam Bondi testimony, and I literally did the "shaking my head so they know I disapprove" thing

congrats Pam Bondi, you are the winner of today’s Bannable Drafts award

You have til Sunday to become a studio executive and submit your nomination for March’s bonus pod! Drop any questions in the comments!

and Your Honor, if I may say so, you are totally muumuu mogging on your fellow joids this morning, sir

hearing that Darabont got Kingmogged by Flanagan and it sent his Cortisol levels spiking???

one thing I'd really like to attempt this year is divesting from Google entirely. It'd be a chore for sure, but man there's just nothing redeemable about this company anymore

and any time they do want to make something “original,” they just rely on AI because they have no actual ideas

Some Dark Magik (2025) - Dalton Deschain & the Traveling Show

please stop telling me I look like this man. it is not something that I enjoy hearing, for probably obvious reasons

we're at a real tipping point when it comes to tech companies being antagonistic to their users, and it's clear they're going to keep pushing until their user bases collapse

New York has a Muslim mayor; the Patriots are losing the Super Bowl. The Long 9/11 is finally coming to an end.

the people on our side are so much better than the people on their side. Their side is a cess pit of selfish, sniveling little gremlins, preening toddlers except toddlers have a good excuse for acting that way. They could not conceive of, let alone understand, doing something like this

amazing halftime show, now it’s time to switch over to The Mummy (1959)

Bad Bunny just scored the first touchdown of the game.

it’d be pretty funny if bad bunny also called drake a pedophile during his halftime performance

couldn’t begin to fathom what they thought that coinbase ad was gonna do

coinbase left "am I sexual?" out of the lyrics because jeffrey epstein funded cryptocurrency for the international trade in csam

extremely telling that Anthropic thought everything about that AI therapy ad was desirable UNTIL the advertisement

man everything that happened following the release of American Idiot (21st Century Breakdown, the musical) really sucked, but I have to admit they were actually cooking on that album

is Hundreds of Beavers the first movie that's also a Metroidvania

haven't seen anybody post about bill ackman being in the epstein files but....that can't be right, can it? he's gotta be in there. like a lot. right???

gonna watch the Super Bowl to be part of the cultural conversation (and have an excuse to eat snax), but during the football parts I will most certainly be playing Super Metroid. sorry if that's sportsball of me but I yam who I yam

yeah 2026 Green Day might say fuck ICE at the Super Bowl, but 1996 Green Day would have just played Longview four times in a row and the last time would have just been sex noises and tbh I'd kinda prefer that

it's Game Day!! that's right, the final showdown between Pod Grant and Prime Grant for control of his mind. Streaming now on YouTube or wherever you get podcasts!

“Does Green Day Get the F-slur Pass,” the greatest thread in the history of punknews forums, locked by moderators after 3,429 pages of heated debate

go ROBERT MUELLER and the RULE OF LAW!

I can not express enough how much you should not “watch the Super Bowl for the ads.” Super Bowl ads have not been fun for a decade. You are going to watch 3,000 AI commercials that make you sad, and 4,000 sports betting commercials that make you spiral, and 20,000 Uber Eats ads with the same joke.

Never forget — everyone is fighting a battle you can't see

who up munting and mogging with they moids

unfortunately a great example of an untalented person who doesn't need AI to make their art

I used to work in home theater sales and the best time to buy a new TV was the week after the Super Bowl, because so many dudes would buy a huge one, use it for the game, and then return it, and we'd have to sell them at open box prices

I'm sorry the guy changing the rules on the fly is named what

sydney sweeney

I need someone to make a jersey that says The Girl Reading This instead of a team name. preferably that I can buy before the Super Bowl
