the bathroom thing is worse than tearing out the east wing sorry

the MARINERS???

Distressing echo of the trot->neocon pipeline

Billhelm has spent all day insisting that by this he simply means a crude intercomparison of the respective number of participants at street demonstrations. But that is not what he said: I'm sorry but the one ranking higher on a "scale of historical notability" is the one that had a king.

I feel like in terms of gates, Hitlergate has to be the worst one you can get or at least in the top 5.

milei's government really was the prototype for this where they followed this order of operations and then put all the tailings left over from the destroyed "a social contract exists" departments under the banner of the "ministry of human capital"

"ChatGDP"

I think the biggest difference between The Internet Then and The Internet Now is how Being Mad Online used to be the one thing you could never admit to, under pain of death, and now, Being Mad Online is a whole career path with a skill tree and an ever-expanding variety of debuffs.

this is how I found out your account got reinstated

The McRib is back for a limited time

Too late, Batman. Once this Tylenol floods the city's water supply, my wiki won't run out of editors ever again

I've spent considerable efforts over the past year trying to get my friends to watch it so I can blab at them about it thank you for your service o7 o7 o7

Was trying to find this to confirm it’s real. Turns out it’s from Threads and dril is killing it over there

Leto II has many powers we cannot comprehend.

Some rudimentary googling did turn up some other people talking about this poster who I definitely associated with it though but it might have actually been from a different thread

Not endowed with the curatorial powers to fish it out (I distinctly and viscerally remember the coffee cup post and another one about someone dreaming about being in a bakery with all these cakes and cookies and etc)

remembering a thread on the somethingawful forums from like 15 years ago where page 1 was "let's do the paleo diet!" and by around page 8 was like "breakfast: coffee mug of bone marrow and beef fat" and around page 12 the thread was closed because somebody went to the ER.

every ancient custom is from 1880
every cultural heritage is from 1925
every national tradition is from 1960
every latter day perversity is from the bronze age

i think comparing vote blue no matter who type democrat stans to sport fans isn't especially apt because if a sports team's GM was always making the roster worse on purpose in an attempt to win over fans of their most bitter rival, that man would be killed

a clever historian could place this event as the coronation ceremony for the cadre of nazi freaks who rule over all of us now.

when the milei government stripped out any part of the state with even a vague pretense of serving the public good, they put the tailings all under one heading that they called the "ministry of human capital"

If we understand late 19th century antisemitism not merely as a hatred of Jews qua Jews, but a specific worldview in which Jews stand for transnational ideologies threatening the hard borders of the nation-state, we can see why Jewish nationalists had to reinvent antisemitism from first principles.

I know I'm extrapolating and there's no reason to think this is going to achieve national prominence but my gut says we're gonna have congressional hearings and Chuck Grassley is going to be told what Futanari is.

Never stop hating. Never give in. You are just a few hours of finally succeeding with your singularly obsessive burning hate.

Maybe Something Beautiful Will Happen Today.

I'd just like to point out how weird it is that places with hundreds or even thousands of reporters — the NYT, WaPo, CBS, NBC, AP, etc. — are all getting pummeled on every major story by the dozen computerboys at Wired. To fumble the bag this consistently is, at some point, cowardice and a choice.

screnshot of CNN interview with Rahm Emmanuel. You can scan a QR code "for Full interview with Rahm Emanuel"

They're calling it the least scanned QR code of all time

I am going to get a full professorship at this center. I'm going to show Veggie Tales videos to a bunch of 19-year-olds who brought briefcases to class and ostentatiously cry for much of the running time. My salary will be paid by a grant from the Vlad Dracul Youth Education Initiative.
