Fellow tinnitus sufferers: I was Googling, again, and randomly fell upon this Reddit comment and ... uh ... it actually worked? Or like, seriously reduced the ringing at least temporarily. np.reddit.com/r/WTF/commen...

Border Patrol “attempted to arrest a plumber working inside a Logan Heights home but left empty-handed after the homeowner refused them entry. The homeowner told agents she would not allow them inside because the warrant they presented did not include her address and lacked a judge's signature.”

Felt like watching Patton tonight, for some strange reason.

David Letterman on his career mocking presidents: “Beating up on these people, rightly or wrongly, accurately or perhaps inaccurately, in the name of comedy—not once were we squeezed by anyone from any governmental agency, let alone the dreaded FCC.” Watch more: bit.ly/4n0Uv2p

This is one of the most beautiful things I have witnessed, the craft here is impeccable.

I think it’s cool that my city gets to be 1970s Belfast because an intern got his shit rocked by a teenage girl

As end-of-empire scenarios go it is so much more dignified to get your capital city sacked by the Visigoths than to have a bunch of illiterate rich people in their 70s doing it through a series of incomprehensible tantrums because their brains were defeated by their phones.

Motherfucking wind farms…

I once read a comment saying something like "if you choose not to laugh at farts, your life will contain less laughter but still the same amount of farts". I think about that a lot.

I do firmly believe that refusing to outsource your basic cognitive functions to LLMs right now - as so many are stumbling over themselves to do right now, like hogs trotting to a pile of slop that’s been set up inside of a butcher’s delivery truck - will very much pay off in a few years.

The first privately developed U.S. nuclear enrichment facility is going to be built in Paducah, Kentucky at the site of a former nuclear fuel plant. The US government is now allowing a private citizen to enrich uranium, aka nuclear bombs. That private citizen is "destroy humanity" Peter Thiel.

Yes, that's the one I put on mine, but I kept the switch buttons

Younger people will be shocked to hear this, but way back when I grew up, anytime you saw a movie where some government official stopped someone on the street and demanded to see their identification papers, that was supposed to let you know they were the *bad* guys.

I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving. There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later. They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

Anderson Cooper reports on innovative technology now in an early clinical trial that is allowing participants with paralysis to stand up and walk or move their arms – by thinking about it. 60 Minutes, Sunday.

I bought Twitter for $44,000,000,000 and sold it back to myself for $33,000,000,000. I have 43 kids and no friends. Everything I make explodes

This is art. 🤗

one of the most important things to learn, if you're out there doing things: you don't get to talk about it. you don't get to brag about it, you don't get to tell your friends, you don't get drinks bought for you in the bar off the story. it's *always* shut the fuck up friday

{while being mugged at gunpoint} This guy is just bluffing {mugger seizes my wallet} This is just a distraction {mugger shoots me in the gut and runs away} He'll screw up soon and then we can go back to normal

I've been hearing extremely promising things about the possibilities of argent energy. It's very simple: you open a gate to hell and directly harvest the energy generated by the screams of the damned. And before you ask, I can asure you that the risk of demonic incursion is virtually non-existent.

I mean, “died in fireworks explosion” “cybertruck” and “Trump hotel” are 3 things that just seem to belong with each other.
