Kash Patel slurping down a beer in a locker room while wearing a USA jersey. Why?? You aren’t on the team! You are a government employee travelling on the taxpayer’s dime! Maintain a modicum of decorum, you pathetic piece of shit!

Just imagining James Comey randomly showing up to a locker room, celebrating a team he has zero involvement in, and slamming a beer

It’s all a grift. Mike Lee et al. know they can’t pass it but it’s a chance to trot out preening doofuses like Scott Presler to make it look like they’re doing something. That’s why mainstream outlets aren’t taking it seriously.

Still thinking about the Attorney General of the United States handwaving away systemic pedophilia and sex trafficking because the Dow is doing well in the cadence of Parker Posey’s xan’d out character on The White Lotus

Super Bowl advertising:

Alright we’ve got… *reaches into sack labeled Celebrities, pulls out balls* Carrie Coon and Andy Samberg doing a *reaches into sack labeled Pop Culture, pulls out ball* Princess Bride parody….for *reaches into sack labeled Product, pulls out ball* Snickers.

Black-and-white editorial cartoon of a living room with a large wall of DVDs labeled “Blu-ray,” “Special Editions,” “Complete Series,” “Box Sets,” and “Bonus Discs.” A smiling, well-dressed adult labeled “Sophisticated Adults” proudly gestures to the DVD library while another adult admires it. To the right, a slouching teenager labeled “Today’s Mixed-Up Teens” scratches his head and says, “B-but I just ‘stream’ movies…” A TV sits below the shelves, and a small caption near the bottom reads, “Empty handed, empty headed.”

How it feels watching Bitcoin bros when all of my finances are tied up in obscure private press records

“Everything that you hoped for—that you dreamed about being a part of—is a fabrication. Your art. Your writing. Your culture. Is the shell of other men’s ambitions. Ambitions beyond what you will ever understand.” youtu.be/suFIGg3G3Fc

I’m not a fast food snob by any means but I refuse to eat at Del Taco. Disgusting every time.

This makes me nostalgic for the days when I would get random calls to settle music-related trivia disputes before everyone had smart phones

YouTube video by Scott Carney Various Artists - Hits of Tomorrow, Vol. 1

Found this on eBay recently and it’s almost like a cross between a song poem comp and a tax scam release. Next to no information can be found about these “hits of tomorrow.” Some gems on here but I’m obsessed with this lo-fi synth jazz track in particular youtu.be/-uxMINtg9GY?...

Growing up in the ‘90s, the “reptilian people” conspiracy theory always seemed like an arch, meta-commentary on conspiracies themselves. Something so outlandish and implausible, no one could possibly believe it in earnest.

But then you see Gavin Newsom…🤔🤔🤔

Some wild pulls at the Goodwill today

I’m so glad @cbsnews.com made a point to say they’ll always love America unapologetically. Really nailed the timing on that one.

My one prediction for 2026: the Butthole Surfers song “Human Cannonball” will be used well in a TV or movie sync, resulting in a new wave of Gen-Z fans.

An email notification from Jimmy John’s with the repeating line “Display images to show real-time content”

New "Passersby were amazed by the unusually large amounts of blood” just dropped

“I sat right here and said I didn’t want any testicles!”

Nothing says honor, commitment, and service like resigning in the middle of an active manhunt so you can talk into a microphone 🫡 🇺🇸

This kinda sounds like Twoism-era Boards of Canada. The master approves.

Found this at a thrift store the other day - lo-fi Christmas gospel reminiscent of Pastor T.L. Barrett. Absolutley worth the $0.99 youtu.be/IzmvKNvzkNM

Criminally underrated. I think about this song at least once a week youtu.be/Jtt8Q94zeV8

Wake Up Dead Man is running for two weeks in like 6 theaters in the entire state of Colorado, in what world is that consumer friendly

An image of an infant urn for sale on a website with a “low stock” alert.

New “for sale: baby shoes, never worn” just dropped

Man, I should have followed @vintageobscura.net a long time ago. Every time I visit here my tabs explode with tons of cool music. Highly recommended!
