a repressed serial killer could really get some zoomies out right now if they wanted to.

just read that there’s a guy in minneapolis who, one by one, has captured several ICE agents who entered his home. zipties them and throws them in his basement for safekeeping until their boss comes to fetch them. i don’t want this in my life I just appreciate the originality and chutzpah.

The depth of the shame of a country this wealthy and abundant allowing its people to go hungry is impossible to measure. The fact that a handful of people could fix this by paying their fair share of taxes while still remaining obscenely wealthy makes it even worse.

Kind of amazing to think about how different the world might be today if PayPal had just... failed early on and shut down. You can trace so much nonsense today back to PayPal getting bailed out by eBay.

Europe’s Noise Capital Tries to Turn Down the Volume To combat the ill effects of urban noise pollution, Paris is deploying automated sensors and cracking down on the loudest vehicles.

“The effort to quiet Paris complements the wider campaign to make Paris greener, cleaner & less car-dependent, which include vehicle restrictions in the center, crackdowns on polluting vehicles, & an ambitious expansion of bike networks. Those have cut the city’s average noise level by 2 decibels.”

“Sometimes the pieces that seem to do absolutely nothing end up being the pieces that win you the game.”

extremely on-point comedy is the clearest form of communication, and the swiftest disseminated. we need the Awesome Foundation but specifically for trump-mocking antics/bits. the baby-trump-balloon GoFundMe types mustn’t be afraid to dream a little bigger, darlings. /rant

I’m in virtual-detox mode and don’t have time to sift through viraling videos for the funniest&cleverest anti-trump ones. whoever makes/curates a comedic anti-trump channel that I can ideally stream on AppleTV w/o having to scroll, my Disney+ money and full attention will be yours. thanks in advance

"We're all throwing dildos at women athletes to promote our memecoin" really puts a fine point on not just how sexist, mean and stupid so much of right now is, but also the grim degree to which we're just inundated with Stuff a 15-Year-Old Dipshit Would Think is Cool. A confederacy of Beavises.

If you don't already, watch Colbert. He is a man with no more f*cks left to give. And it's glorious.
