this is like that episode of Black Mirror, “Stupid Shit Sucks And Is Everywhere, 2028 AD”

we need to call them out for the weirdos they are and shun them from polite society until they change their ways. being nice to assholes allows them to live a life free of consequences.

the only reassuring thing about this video is that half the seats are empty

if you are in a professional or personal situation where you cannot fully divest yourself from something being rightly boycotted, you've got an easy out: shut the fuck up. no one asked. you're free. i'm not your priest.

I’m in Vienna right now. A city which went from being the intellectual and cultural capital of the world to a “provincial backwater” (to quote Brian Barry) in a couple of decades due to nationalism, anti-semitism and fascism which drove away the leading scholars and artists it didn’t murder.

we need another villain with a fucked up looking face mask

half the people i’ve talked to who want to the country have one thing in common: elderly parents who need regular care. this is a pretty heavy anchor and if other countries want to attract highly motivated skilled workers from the US then they should consider accommodations for elderly dependents

Jack Reacher describing how I make PB&J sandwiches: “He spreads peanut butter on both faces before applying the jelly. Smart. Prevents the moisture in the jelly from soaking the bread. Doesn’t make a difference if you eat it right away, but if you’re saving it for later? Guy knows what he’s doing.”

and yet when Lee Child writes “Reacher said nothing” for the fifth time that page everybody’s all like “boo, you suck at writing”

New Zealand desperately needs good health workers and if you're a doctor/NP/nurse who gets a job in the public health system, you can get residency straightaway. If you're an American looking to leave, it's a good option. Happy to chat further, drop me a DM

“there’s always a tweet” yeah they’re liars. they’re always lying. of course there’s going to be a tweet where they contradict themselves. telling the truth is consistent but telling lies is not.

if you work in healthcare in america, you should strongly consider looking for a job outside of america

Chappell Roan voice:

CDC expanding five second rule to five minutes

This is why I left when I had the opportunity. Even in the best case scenario, it's going to be generations before the US gets back to where it was. And even if I wanted to stay and fight, I wasn't going to consign my young kids to that when I had an alternative...

i know i’ve said in the past that this is a diseased country but man this is a Diseased country

if i were a teacher and a kid in my class was distracted by their phone, i would staple their phone.

CDC to recommend looking only one way before crossing street

the more advanced vocabulary and sophisticated grammar of everyday speech in the previous eras may give the impression that the discourse of yesteryear was less stupid than the discourse of today, but that is not the case. words may change, but it has always been this stupid.

This song goes so hard

“My autistic superpower is you name a date and I can instantly tell you what I had for breakfast that morning.” “Okay, July 10, 2012” “Grits, scrambled eggs, hash browns.” “Wow! Incredible! How about August 4th, 1998?” “Grits, scrambled eggs, hash browns.” “January 11th, 2001” “Grits, scramb-“

Strange is the night where black stars rise, And strange moons circle through the skies But stranger still is Burger King After Dark

Songs that the flame broilers shall sing Where flip the burgers of the King Must die unwhopped in Dim Carcosa

This is why everything sucks. It's not trans people. It's not immigrants. You are being robbed blind before your eyes and those same people also own all the tech and media networks to tell you that the cause is not them

we fired all the people who knew how to operate the excavator so now my buddy tom is at the controls doing his best. he’s already knocked down three houses and the homeowners are yelling at him, but he’s locked up pretty good in that little cage so probably they won’t be able to get to him

when a house is engulfed in flames it’s a good idea to leave the house. you could stay and fight back but that’s a good way to get melted.

thank you google AI very helpful

the best time to brain drain was yesterday. the second best time to brain drain is today.
