Silksong has exactly two bosses: 1) WEEPING WIDOW has 4 phases, moves at lightning speed and fills the screen with attacks. The greatest boss fight you've ever experienced 2) SILLY CHUMBUG who makes you play Flappy Bird in a tiny room full of adds with zero margin for error and a 10-minute runback

This is my Evangelion

I think the central premise that young men searching for information on how to have a sex life will invariably encounter just an absolute avalanche of right wing misogyny peddlers and very little actual helpful advice is a genuine problem.

me when I'm bad at my job and I keep losing elections: "it's the posters' fault. They're posting about celebrities all wrong." man, have you seen the shit Republicans post?

i think about this all the time. what has our society done to its men? fucked up.

this is a letter to the editor from a high school track runner who came in second to a trans girl in a race. her state house rep in maine started talking about it. so she wrote this: www.pressherald.com/2025/05/14/r...

wendy's cashier: will that be all? me: i think so. we just close our eyes for the last time and we're gone. but it doesn't have to be sad. it's like before you were born. we don't miss those who haven't happened yet. we don't feel their absence wendy's cashier: mothers do. i do

"oh hey, I hadn't heard of Fevre Dream before. I wonder what other people think about it. Let's check the replies."

It looks like someone has hacked a crosswalk button in Palo Alto to deliver at least two different messages in the voice of Elon Musk. (They are not complimentary)

not having the AI convo anymore i’m just sending people this

NYU canceled a planned speech by the former president of Doctors Without Borders because she planned to discuss the humanitarian crisis in Gaza and cuts to US AID. This is what actual campus censorship looks like.

I've had a low opinion of NYT for a while, but I think this is the most condemning thing I've ever seen from them. If I were an editor and I saw this on my desk, I'd bury the story and cover it up. But they're proud of it.

finally figured out the lyrics

I feel like Catch 22 is one of the most obviously leftist books just bc the protagonist is a smart guy who understands the insanity around him in perfect clarity, but nobody takes him seriously because it's also turned him into a miserable, high-strung neurotic And what's more leftist than that

"Common Side Effects" is coming this Sunday (Adult Swim / Max). By the co-creator & the animation studio behind "Scavengers Reign".

this is what a lot of tech people used to be like 😭 it bums me out that younger people probably have no conception of the internet ever being this way

you know how a friendship with a pet dog can be deeply life-affirming because you love each other despite not speaking the same language? i think this disgusts me so much because it's the opposite. a machine that adopts the guise of companionship without even liking you. man's worst friend.

“I see a difference, definitely,” said Tony, who has spent 18 years as a bus operator for the MTA. “There have been no delays the entire week, and when I look to my left and right down the avenues I can see all the way down – I’ve never seen it like that.” nyc.streetsblog.org/2025/01/10/m...

after days of grifters and con men at CES we stumbled upon the booth for VLC. they were all dressed as wizards and told us, "we have nothing to sell, we just decided to show up". i told them I'd been using their software to pirate media for 15 years and they said "keep doing that"

I also want to stress that some of you don't seem to understand that there is a difference between this and "individual action can help." I do actually think it mostly can't. But I do want /the government/ to /force/ you to change your consumption patterns.

Fun fact about those AI accounts on Instagram: you can’t block them. (Cc @davidgerard.co.uk)

When I had a violent stalker who would graphically describe how he would have me gang raped, puncture my organs and and break all my bones, I was told the police "couldn't do anything". Consider this a reminder that they absolutely ✨can✨ do something. They just don't care about YOU.

BlueSky is trying to monetize so let's show them some numbers: Reskeet this if you refuse to pay for BlueSky+ until trust & safety decides to prioritize marginalized users. That's $96 / year of lost revenue for each reskeet...

Yep. The goal of anti-porn laws isn't to stop people from seeing pornography. It's to create a class of speech that's legally suppressible, and then apply it to dissent.

i see the intuitive appeal of the idea that voting for Dems is forfeiting your leverage, but i think that misunderstands how power is built in practice. the most powerful demographic in American politics is white evangelicals, and they got there through relentless engagement with electoral politics

Customer: I LOVE PUKE DMV: I LOVE PUKE Verdict: DENIED

The cat's out of the bag, baby. I'm adapting MANHUNT for TV with Lilly Wachowski, and I couldn't be prouder or more excited to be writing it. We're going to do our damnedest to bring this thing kicking, screaming, and queer as hell onto the screen. www.autostraddle.com/lilly-wachow...

straight up yoinking that shit

i love when people get shocked that some opinions are unacceptable. Yeah, sorry. People don't tend to respond to abhorrent ideas civilly.

Anyway please enjoy the whole awful adventure in one image so you don't have to go flipping through posts

I watched FURIOSA today FURY ROAD was inspired—every element was bursting with colour. Simple but with immense attention to detail. By contrast, FURIOSA is muddled and weak. The new villain talks too much but has nothing to say. The new designs are dull; the good bits are reused. I'm disappointed.

Romney openly admitting it's because too much information about Palestine was getting out is some of the most sickening, dead-eyed freak shit I've ever seen

"Everything the Communists told us about communism was a complete and utter lie. Unfortunately, everything the Communists told us about capitalism turned out to be true." —Russian joke from the 1990s

Shocker!! The thing most trans women could already tell you is very obviously true from our own experience is in fact true

i come not to bury police abolition but to praise it. the hard truth is that the george floyd protests failed. if want to do better next time, we need to take a hard look in the mirror and understand why. www.liberalcurrents.com/how-movement...

i can't stop thinking about this. If moviegoers wanted video games, they'd play video games. Obviously. This proves blindly adding more interactivity doesn't inherently improve art. So Altman gaslights us! He pretends blindly adding interactivity DOES improve art, and trusts we won't think about it

Hey y'all, saw this on Insta and thought I should pass it along, just in case ppl are using JUST Google Docs and might want to back things up or pull things down from their Drive. You can check out the Insta & see the screen caps here: www.instagram.com/p/C48JN_Trvx...

I think about this post so much

go to @moderation.bsky.app and tell it to let you see rude posts. i wish i was joking about this

oh i spoke too soon. it's not JUST patreon making any form of nsfw art extremely difficult and tedious, fucking GUMROAD is banning ALL nsfw content entirely too! a place seemingly only for nsfw artists! the power that stripe and paypal have to dictate acceptable content is an incredibly worrying.

there is a square-shaped hole in your heart and you're trying to fill it with piss: a thread in six parts🧵

relax!

a "found family" story where the family members are barely even characters. They're props at which the protagonist can blandly perform kindness, & in return everyone coos about how kind he is. Utter dreck. And if that's not bad enough, it's mean to be a twee heartwarming take on a real genocide.
