There’s a word we used to say. They don’t let you say it anymore, but I think it’s a beautiful word. We call it: dialectic. You have the thesis, and then the antithesis, and if you put them together it’s a synthesis. Very powerful. We’ll be looking into that. Very materialist, the theory of history

Small blonde boy seen from the back, sadly hunched, hands in the pockets of his hoodie, standing in the cold looking forlornly into the window of a candy shop, where everything is colorful and brightly lit.

i wonder what it’s like to look around every day and see the country being run into the ground by pill-poppers and secret police and anti-vaxxers and book burners and you go into work and sit down at your computer and you’re the guy whose job it is to come up with new oreos flavors

Disco Elysium is so leftist that the 4 founders split up into 5 rival studios. How they physically managed this I still do not understand. It's like something out of a failed algebra answer "invalid solution", but they pulled it off.

AP caption: “Racers take to the track during a preliminary heat during the “T-Rex World Championship Races” at Emerald Downs, Sunday, June 29, 2025, in Auburn, Wash. (AP Photo/Lindsey Wasson)”
It’s like 20 people in T-Rex costumes at various spots across the racetrack as viewed from the side. Most of them are orange, but there are some green blue and purple ones and one skeleton T-Rex.

It’s four T-Rex’s walking in front of some picnic tables the first two of which are purple the second two of which are orange and one of the orange ones has a pink tutu
Now that’s what I call photo journalism.

Beto getting a standing ovation at a full house in Amarillo right now: "Imagine a Democratic party that fights...that no longer rolls over and plays dead..." In a riff on his stump speech, (whoever you voted for, you're in the right place): "If you voted for Bernie Sanders you were right all along."
