Inside us there are two Ringos trying to write a song. One about an octopus. The other about a garden. Make them kiss.

Every time someone in the Trump orbit mentions a refund check, they should be asked how much these refund checks would’ve been if they didn’t spend $170billion on ICE and send $40billion to Argentina.

Like, if a psychic told Kim Kardashian she could be a survivalist would everything but the plastic parts of her be decomposing in a Borneo jungle right now?

It’s just a really weird way to find out psychics are full of shit.

If having your phone records looked at is worth 500k, how much does each US citizen detained by ICE get?

When I was a teen in the 00s it was sites like Stereogum, BrooklynVegan, and Prefix that really guided my music exploration beyond radio/mtv. I owe them a lot. Subscribing is the least I could do.

The morgue lobby from MIB should be the blueprint.

My partner worked at Target for 15yrs from cashier up to store director. The goal is to be as understaffed as possible. They lean on their ETLs (dept. managers) to work 50hrs (in theory but more like 60-70) to offset lack of hourly employees. No one there wants to smile because they are overworked.

This is Marketplace. I’m Kai Rysdal. Remember way back in 2026 when the AI bubble popped, ruined everything and left a swath of abandoned data centers in its wake? Well the warlords who now govern these lands have repurposed these sprawling indoor expanses for blood sport. Sabri Ben-Achour explains:

It takes an insane levels of revisionist history to refer to the left who opposed the Iraq War as knee-jerk, and not the centrist Democrats who were tripping over themselves to keep up with Republican jingoism.

It’s been about 3 years since I signed up and after HBO Max and Netflix, Nebula is my 3rd most used app on my TV. $36/yr is a steal for what you’re getting, but I just decided I’m fully hooked and got the lifetime membership.

This looks like the opening shot in roughly 80% of pornography filmed in 1998.
