I'm having fun on the Internet

No one ever wants a list of Jews so they can protect them.

I've been thinking about this all day. I've never seen the current president act with so little bombast in a public event. Ever. It was astounding.

Incredible show. Just a nonstop dance party. It might be the most fun I've ever had at a concert.

And I totally agree, there were a few highlights which didn't make the movie. This one tops the list.

It was the World Without Exploitation PSA, guaranteed. He doesn't understand much, but he understands the power of television.

We need Asimov's Three Laws of Robotics baked into A/I systems, too.

Excellent thread. Stay strong, stand firm, be joyful, and keep in mind how fundamentally rowdy we Americans are.

We're not so easy to subdue. #RockOnPipples

Okay, that made me burst out laughing. Bravo. 👏

In the century leading up to 1975, nearly 6000 freighters went down in the Great Lakes.

The Edmund Fitzgerald was the last.

The last. In 50 years, not a single commercial freighter has been lost in the Great Lakes.

Why?

It's NOAA. Of course it's NOAA.

Plain as day. And not for nothing, but it's remarkable to see such supposedly accomplished people be so much more gullible and naïve than the average person.

(That's a polite way of saying, "what fookin' idjits.")

Mamdani's populism rang true for a lot of folks, in the way that Bernie's did and Kamala's didn't.

At Schiphol Airport in Amsterdam, they cut down on maintenance costs by painting pictures of a little fly near the drains of the urinals so men would aim at them.

I don't know why I just thought of that. 🤷‍♂️

Discovery is a hell of a thing.

World Series 2025: The 14 most absurd moments from the Dodgers' Game 7 win This game had records, a near-brawl, a game-tying homer, a game-winning homer and multiple opportunities for the Blue Jays to end it.

I'm going to go ahead and say it: this was the best game of the best World Series of my lifetime. As a neutral, I could barely take it. I don't know how fans of these two teams lived through it. Unbelievable. #WorldSeries 🏆 ⚾
