me midway through episode 3: "could this show GET any trope-ier?" me after episode 3: "ah. I see."

WAR GAMES (1983)

turntable. fm

*takes puff from cigarette* "That Autism test of yours, Kennedy—did you ever take it yourself?"

jd vance has the confidence of a hot person who gets away with saying sneakily dumb shit, except he's not hot

increasingly convinced I've entered some sort of time vortex

seems the genre of this new horse lords album is firmly "music for people who like stereolab more than most"

a baffling degree of failing to understand his constituents, frankly

insane to look at charlie kirk and go "that's a bloke whose life trajectory I'd want to follow" in 2026

wasn't unsure if manson was dead. has been for about a decade. more you know i guess

it is insane how much "if only i could remember my name" kicks this album's ass into next sunday

jared polis moment

reading about veblen, think he'd fit right in on bluesky

peddling tonics is a tad too on-the-nose I fear

my iraqi college friend's crypto-rightist views really baffled me until I better understood the chaldean diaspora

incredibly funny how much time the pads wasted refusing to give france playing time

looking at the personnel section on "songs for beginners" is hilarious. "well i bet neal young guested on... piano?! also he got phil lesh for a song?"

watching arcane and no less than three times in five minutes have characters been told to fuck off so other characters can have a conversation

now that's what I call belt & road

why didn't they tell me the new sublime album is out

"the police are the smashing pumpkins of the 80's" and other takes with zero utility

dana white might be the only guy more loathed than trump in america rn

dawg what lmfao

logged out for fifteen minutes, did the discourse get any better in that time

it really is incredible how America accomplished only Israeli aims (and only the most lunatic, hawkish ones, no less) while wasting untold resources

*taps mic* wine is good, but I also don't like wine with as many things as others

just rewatched bender's big score, surprised at how good it was. peak futurama honestly. also half the thing was a giant scott walker reference?!?

youtube.com/shorts/Y0qZ2... finally, a good youtube short

realized somebody's gonna get an oscar for method acting peter thiel one day

the back half of house was compelling but also a trainwreck, real prison break "what do we do now" vibes

youtube.com/shorts/tnHC4... that's it, AI is cancelled

I may be dumb, and also a dweeb

extremely funny we're bombing everyone we should be trying to thaw relations with while *checks notes* cozying up to eritrea

ol' gray mare she ain't what she used to be

finished Ken Burns' THE ROOSEVELTS. just some remarkable people, straight out of some grand literary work

boxd.it/eLBjHH thoughts on Questlove's new Earth, Wind & Fire doc, a big step up, imo, from his Sly Stone project:

I’d never really experienced it much before but holy shit now I know what people mean when they say the Russian Duma has a mass surveillance problem

me when I play affinity

www.whijournal.com/article/S104... equally salient, imo, is guns' roles in domestic abuse situations

not to be a cop, but kudos to the commenters going "actually wearing a helmet is good" on a yt skit razzing a 'skater who always wears a helmet' archetype. speaking from experience, shit's *extremely* serious

kawhi leonard

youtu.be/6p3HvM-neJA?... excellent

75% of the economist's posts are humdrum wonkery, then ever so often they get a diabolical urge to just throw an insane molotov cocktail into the discourse

it's so nice we haven't had to take childish gambino seriously for a minute

speechify just pronounced bible as "bibble" lmao
