I get that the news cycle is packed right now, but I just heard from a colleague at the Smithsonian that this is fully a GIANT SQUID BEING EATEN BY A SPERM WHALE and it’s possibly the first ever confirmed video according to a friend at NOAA 10 YEAR OLD ME IS LOSING HER MIND (a thread 🧵)

You guys, so many Romance girlies are reading "On Tyranny" that they've broken the Goodreads recommendations algorithm. 10/10; no notes. #romancelandia

for all people mock it wikipedia is genuinely one of the wonders of the modern world

BREAKING: My agent read my novel and said it was good (but needs a bit more work). 🙂

Listen to me. You have to watch The Dark Crystal Age of Resistance. You have to see these fucking puppets dude. There's a puppet show within the show where the puppets are using puppets and it fuckin rips shit. The skeksis are so shitty and I love them and they are all my friends.

Here are some things that Charlie Kirk said in his life. The man is dead, and so it only seems fair to share his legacy by cataloguing the values he spread while alive.

BREAKING: My mom read my novel and said it was good. 🙂

It's a get out of bed at 1am and play Donut County start to finish kind of night. Excited to replay my favourite entry in the Room of 1000 Snakes ludic universe.

Reminds me of the shovelware philosophy that crashed the game industry in the early 80s.

Hi there, do you ever want to just scream and scream and scream? Asking for a friend. 🫰

My calorie counting app just gave me an ad for ChatGPT. You know, the place where they also advertise Temu. Reeks of desperation.

Weapons, folks. It really is. I feel like I just learned something new about the world. I am so happy. I didn't even fucking like Barbarian!!

Okay this is about as desperate as I've seen OpenAI
