Best in the business

TIL there are MULTIPLE Halloween themed parodies of Beatles songs. Thanks SiriusXM!

This is a deep cut that warms my heart.

All the quasi recent TV shows where they jump into the future and capitalism/technology is predatory and terrible and ruining lives, it’s all come true except for the awesome advances in phones. We’re still basically stuck with 2010 phones with slightly better batteries.

It’s gonna ruin a lot of people’s lives. I’m no prude but this all seems like a really bad idea.

The overarching theme of Trump 2.0 is that reality doesn't exists, that the material world is simply fodder for Posts, and that if something gets attention and retweets the people trying to stop you are irrelevant scolds. And they're going to extend that principle to actual war on a foreign nation

Lebowitz believes naked racism is behind Trump’s election. “He allowed people to express their racism and bigotry in a way that they haven’t been able to in quite a while and they really love him for that. It’s a shocking thing to realise people love their hatred more than they care about their own actual lives. The hatred – what is that about? It’s a fear of your own weakness.”

Seems like a guy who’s building a bunker, not a ballroom.

The plural of chief should be chieves.

why am i soft in the middle when the rest of my life is so hard

Joe Flacco is elite

"One day everyone will have always been against this"

They’re not even biting me or whatever they just wanna exist on my leg.

It’s crazy how some flies won’t leave you alone and you try to be nice and brush them off and they keep
coming back and at some point it’s like, “hey I’m gonna have to crush you if you don’t stop” and they’re like “totally worth it!”

I find myself thinking a lot lately about Chappelle walking away from Comedy Central’s contract for ethical reasons and now there’s literally nothing he won’t do for money.

There are two types of people in the world: People who like Final Destination and people who like The Fast and the Furious.

We all have nostalgia and it’s great but Cracker Barrel is gonna tank again in 18 months and a rebrand might’ve saved it 🤷‍♂️

The whole thing had a “I’m with Coco” or Toys R Us vibe because people weren’t going to Cracker Barrel. It’s not like it was genuinely popular and the rug was pulled. People were mad that something they used to like and no longer financially supported and would never support had been taken away.

I still don’t really understand what people were upset about, if I’m being honest.

Finding the right program and committee would be really important. A lot of academics think scholarship should not be accessible. If they don’t think your writing is “scholarly” it could be a really frustrating experience.

I’ve wanted to play Ker Plunk for 40 years and never at any point did I consider the possibility that I’d be bad at it.

Getting your belt loop caught on a door is among the most demeaning and debilitating moments in life. You go from capable adult to small child in a nanosecond.

One thing I love about BlueSky is I’ll log off for a few hours, then come back and hit refresh and there are no new posts. It’s the same 5-6 posts I saw last time and it feels fantastic. We don’t need so much content! Some is enough.

This is an excellent point. We’ve had a bad media landscape for a long time. It just crept into the “news news” and some of us didn’t notice.
