Over the next 4 days, he suffered bleeding from his rectum, had blood in his semen and came up in bruises all over his body. Tim Stillman: fair play to him if he was still up for a wank after all that. What a trooper.

So much of the culture childish: movies where everyone is big and strong and cannot die, worship of authority, an inability to think about future consequences, an inability to think about how things would effect others (e.g. phone videos without headphones), a hatred of shots, disbelief of experts

Justice for Palestine @CoreyBrickley wtf are we doing, as a people, when we automate away "painting a goblin with huge knockers" as an occupation?
