Fuck yeah, NYC. Fuck yeah, Jersey. Fuck yeah, Virginia.

How refreshing to feel pride and a little tingle of hope the morning after Election Day rather than disgust and despair.

Podcasts are hard bc my brain auto-disables voice recognition for any cognitive load more complex than "clean stuff."

But today ChatGPT (I know) put me on Hidden Brain and y'all - it's SO GOOD. I feel like a cis ytπŸ“β™‚οΈ lit major in 2006 tryna tell you about Infinite Jest. I apologize in advance.

At what point do I accept that I have jumped the shark and take out one of the MULTIPLE brand-new tubes in the "bathroom sundries" cabinet?

The eastbound LIRR smells real different at rush hour: like unwashed type 1 or 2 hair and upper middle income that hasn't showered for a day or two but thinks nothing of it bc they put on a clean shirt and deodorant this morning.

If hell is other people, the DMV is the 9th circle. And not because of the employees. If had to deal with that many oblivious, entitled, self-involved fuckshits making everything harder and more annoying every day, I'd be way more of a dick than anybody working there was today. Blessings upon them.

I feel like bluesky is ethical (I almost wrote ethnical and I sincerely hope it IS ethnical) and so maybe they don't try to raid your contacts like all the other fucks do?

Also honestly it sounds like you've mastered the algorithm

looool seeing all these little social media anecdotes about the cultural exchanges between Chinese and American users on WeChat and Xiaohongshu is amazing.

Americans: "Oh, you're taking away TikTok because you're afraid it'll influence our political opinions? Hold our beer."

Yeah, sorry, I didn't provide basically any context. I wrote and rewrote that post at least ten times and everything I said was too much and not enough.

Basically he's a fucking monster to have been her daughter's godfather and create Delirium based on her while also being a rapist/sexual abuser.
