It doesn't make sense for me to ask the tiger not to eat me; It WANTS to do it. I'm not saying it can't help itself, I'm saying why would it? So instead of asking the thing that is actively hurting me to please stop, I'm asking the person responsible for stopping it to stop it.

im going to spell this out for all the very clever people who must have learned the word "agency" recently: A tiger, both literally and in the metaphor, does have agency. It wants to kill me. It is carrying out its plans. The zookeeper is the person tasked with keeping people safe from the tiger.

anyway also the zookeeper is really smug and blames you for the tiger getting out of their zoo

it is a foregone conclusion that yelling at the tiger will not produce any positive results. the fact that people are yelling at the democrats is actually a positive sign: it means they still believe there is a sliver of a chance they will wake up and become an opposition party

my problem with these takes, is it's like imagine if you were being attacked by a tiger at the zoo, and the zookeeper was over there kinda halfheartedly going "hey. come on now. get off him" and you went HEY WHAT THE FUCK! and the zookeeper went "uh don't oyu think you should be angry at the tiger?"

So. Uh. Bud can read. Very well. We bought him a new bedtime book and had him help us read it, he can sight read pretty damn accurately now and that’s terrifying

These Amanda Seyfried stills (the interviewer said she hadn't washed her hair in two weeks) are such good reaction images

Lmao Rob did it. Goddamn that was good

History doesn’t repeat but it rhymes

The Boulder Brothers for the Blood Money era

The collective groan of Punk’s weird goth friend being given a job

'why would kids be on a base???' is extra stupid if you come from a military family

Veep has lost something over the years because it took place in an era where politics was not entirely Trumpized (and had a lot of trouble dealing with that change), but when it comes to the nuts and bolts of politics, it’s still as on point and devastatingly funny as it ever was

there’s a bit in Veep from 2015 where Selina asks Kent if we’ve gone to war and Kent goes “ma’am, we’re America, we’re always at war” bsky.app/profile/cmon...

Right wingers calling everything George Orwell 1984 for a decade only to do it for real themselves

Bone Thugs are also in the first group honestly

i think it would be in the interest of all americans to adopt this view if they have not already bsky.app/profile/hels...

i am grinding my teeth so hard that every dentist in a 50 mile radius is concerned

EC and Hell in a Cell being yearly spectacles killed them being special honestly

Honestly, the millions of Americans who simply can’t be bothered to care about this stuff are almost bigger pigs than the genocidal maniacs who love it.

posting this just once for efficiency, not that anyone was waiting to hear from an anonymous rando: I am opposed to this administration of bandits, bigots, & gangsters committing war crimes; in a better ordered country they could look forward to being sent to The Hague, but we are not that country.

if you're smugly chastising people who begged the previous administration's presidential candidate to promise to stop help killing their families in the face of this you don't care about the people being harmed and never have. you are a bad person.

Getting Bacon Ranch Mini Chalupas fuck it

Scum leaders, scum nation.

Even more than usual I hope he fuckin dies

I’m in a certain mood, send me samples you want flipped into 85-92 BPM beats that wouldn’t sound out of place on Carter 2 or 3 leaks

announcing a war in the dead of night on Friday is a clear sign that you're confident it's gonna go really well and that everybody's gonna be on your side about it.

The 2017 Warriors are responsible for killing children today

Close enough

Of course I make a beat titled SQAD Wayne and we start a war in the Middle East

Now more than ever

it’s good to point out that Ellison getting CNN didn’t really change their coverage all that much from what they do now. they’ve been catering to their audience of 70 year old boomers for some time now

This is both how I found out Neil Sedaka was still alive and dead

You can't blame Max Landis for being the way he is. He had a helicopter parent

Should I have seen this at 8 years old. No. But also yes?

If a "draft executive order" is "circulating" among "pro-Trump activists" who say they are "in coordination with the White House," I need to understand whether they are actually doing so before I consider a year-old PDF to be a "draft executive order" in any meaningful sense of the phrase

This has me crying in real life 😂😂😂 🦁

The streaming marketplace encourages this though. If you have 4 shorter releases a year it keeps you going in the recommendation list because no one is buying it in huge numbers off bandcamp/amazon/itunes as a full album and dropping full length albums depresses total streams

Cutwater cans need to look like more of a party. This is on cutwater

I was already there but Sam wasn’t fully there…dealing with Bud’s NICU stuff and the financial fallout from that did it for her

Calling Kendrick Mr Morale is like in TNA when Sting called Hulk Hogan “Hulkamania” just CTE nonsense

the fracturing of our media/attention markets into a billion pieces is both a horrid curse and one of the things that will save us from being completely subsumed. that, and the one constant of the american character being NUH-UH, I WILL NOT.

The rumors are true! Another has hit the feed this week for DAY ONE TAPERS™ @coleymick.bsky.social Our guy @dragonflyjonez.bsky.social drops by to talk and draft all-time cartoon characters. Captain Planet,, do not listen 🚨 patreon.com/posts/151745...

There was no need for Steely Dan to go this hard at all but they did

The fact this never happened between Wags and Axe in Billions means the showrunners have way more self control than I do

Game of Thrones Season 8 is good. The Idol is good. Frank Ocean’s best album is like a B- and Blond is objectively terrible to me.
