i do more than hug them

that’s me

the problem with mechsploitation is that if you turn a girl into a dog that's also an ace pilot you've just succeeded in creating Snoopy

it’s hard to think of a more disastrous result of goodhart’s law than basically everything in education

i was not in any gifted classes and it was great because i had so much free time to learn what i actually wanted (and also didnt have to interact with the overwhelmingly rich and annoying gifted kids)

I get that the news cycle is packed right now, but I just heard from a colleague at the Smithsonian that this is fully a GIANT SQUID BEING EATEN BY A SPERM WHALE and it’s possibly the first ever confirmed video according to a friend at NOAA

10 YEAR OLD ME IS LOSING HER MIND (a thread 🧵)

Just learned that one of you acted in a manner somewhat beneath yourself in a moment of weakness and insecurity and yes genuine pain. And that in that moment what should have been your problems became someone else’s problems? Considering how best to punish this good and hard

I’m on that good kush and Tylenol

excuse me

I should watch that again

quote from that vice guide to partying: “If the tranny doesn't feel loved, she will leave. Then you're fucked.”

a chilling warning to america from 2004 !

somehow the worst post from someone who ive only ever seen make awful posts

the great leap forward was the original abundance agenda (/pos)

soon they’ll find the exact words to be able to remind everyone that obama solved racism

the entire liberal commentator mode of thought is to ignore reality when it doesn’t line up with popular slogans and then be confused when they don’t understand anything and also lose elections

seems like the overall motivation was “normal guy driven insane by vague proximity to what trans people have to deal with” which would be amusing in a way if it wasn’t going to make things much worse

that might also be because white south africans in the united states are much more likely to be the most racist ones

was just walking near a viaduct and noticing you could clearly hear it from 4 blocks away

Deergirl Chaser. A man with Goatee and flannel shirt is worriedly shaking his arms at a melancholic deergirl. He says "No! Don't cut off your antlers! They're so hot!"

I mean "about something" more in the sense of having a motivated plot and thematic coherence than just an allegorical meaning. The only thing I really didn't like about it was how tacked-on the final act felt (though I do normally love my horror movies atmospheric and thought provoking)

i have a lot of problems with foucault's interpretation of history but its like people don't even try to understand his argument

its like how they dont let you pump your own gas

i read infinite jest in 7th grade i never had a chance

this is a really good one

your cart is a muscle

the size of your lungs

keep on ripping

keep on breathing

and hold on

and hold on

hold on till it blinks

i didn't consider the possibility of a rewrite but i don't think it's a totally untenable reading--there's a few other vestiges of like "kid with a troubled home life being responsible for the disappearance of all his classmates"

my least favorite part of that movie was how quickly it went from being an unsubtle metaphor to being about nothing at all

i hope none of the ones i reposted say anything weird
