I'm sorry ma'am, but your son perished on Kharg Island in a valiant effort to create Wii Bowling meme videos for the White House X account. In the face of danger, he was not cringe; he was based to his last breath. Please have this commemorative Epic Fury challenge coin. Yes that's Punisher, ma'am

The political culture of the contemporary GOP is indistinguishable from that of the school shooter community

A return to Nibblebottom finds Blemish (Martin Wilson) running the tavern the Strange Familiar. And he's not doing great. Listen to the latest episode here: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/s...

Roses are red Violets are blue

Curling has big masturbation energy.

The future looks BAD.

DeMonte the talking crossbow (@captdope.bsky.social) is back and starting a juice business. Also, Usidore is acting strange. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/s...

they should make a movie series about how it’s irresponsible to use technology to mess with the natural order of things for profit

Happy to have print copies of @theonion.com back in my life.

Very fun to have Blaine back on the show.

Greg Bonvino looks like a fascist Don Knotts.

A trip through Pizza Hell leads to a reunion with dragon "enthusiast" Kelvaxostrastymor Ebonwing (@erikaishii.bsky.social ) aka the Sword Bro. Listen to the latest episode here: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/s...

This is a fun batshit one.

We’re back from break and honestly the next few episodes are all-timers starting with the return of @thisistimryder.com as DQ the elf. We’re in Pizza Hell. It all makes sense.

Sure I’m excited that the Bears won but I’m more excited that Industry season 4 starts tonight.

Recently learned I’m two days older than Garfield.

Yesterday, Jan 5, I told my psychiatrist that tomorrow is my birthday. He looked at his calendar, winced and said, “That’s a lot.”

1. Did you know that Girl Scouts has, for a long time, accepted trans girls and nonbinary scouts? Trans kids are under attack. Every year, I make a thread of trans and nonbinary girl scouts you can get your cookies from. Lets get our cookies from them this year in solidarity!

Seems right.

My best New Years Eve was in college (of course). We didn’t have a tv and just missed midnight so we pulled the clock off the wall, moved the minute hand back and everyone did the countdown then. Every ten minutes or so someone would move the clock again and start a new countdown chant. The best.

My 2025 Breakout Character of the Year goes to Cookie Haus’s Chicken Nugget Kid from The Jackbox Party Pack 11. No video game character made me cry more. (The tears were the tears of a proud and happy parent as the Kid is voiced by our 10-year-old, hearing him on screen is such a joy!)

The final Calvin and Hobbes, which appeared in papers 30 years ago today.

I just think it’s so much cooler and more interesting to try to be the best audio show rather than the shittiest television show

For Anyones Eyes If They’re Interested (No Pressure)

And Tiny Tim. to be continued…

The name "Popular Science" doesn't mean we shift our coverage depending on public opinion. It means we cover relevant subjects that are rigorously researched, reliable, and grounded in reality. And trans lives are grounded in reality. We see y'all. No matter what. www.popsci.com/science/tran...

Hey losers leave trans folks alone

Dan Bongino, like so many “manosphere” influencers, looks like his whole body is rejecting a hair transplant.

Patreon gift subscriptions are great gifts that don’t burden people with more “stuff.” Plus a nice way to support shows you (and hopefully they) love. www.patreon.com/magictavern/...

Nice one, Spidey.

A yearly reminder that Kibblesmiths book, Santa’s Husband, is sweet and funny and great. One of my favorites.

Before you answer: she’ll also end up somewhere in AI porn.
