Wow. In another huge upset, Mesmero, the Master of Mentalism, has been elected mayor of Chicago. Political pundits are shocked - he’s a first-time candidate who barely spent anything on advertising, and there wasn’t even an election scheduled for today

i'm not trying to make this about me, this time, but among many other incredible and charismatic qualities, mamdani is the first political candidate in history that seems like maybe, just maybe, he's played firewatch or untitled goose game

Heyyyy cool. When I passed by and saw that they were closing, my heart went thud.

Men are from Mars. Women don't like the Vehicle

I talk about this a lot. These are also the spaces where your friends would take you aside and quietly but kindly inform you when you're completely full of shit.

The rise of Qanon and other piles of seeping trash are a direct result of isolation, loneliness + the loss of these spaces.

Once again, if any organization is asking you to add your name to a list, DO NOT DO IT. THEY ARE NOT LEGITIMATE.

If you want to sign your name to something, sign it to strongly-worded letters to your elected representatives.

Yes. Great idea. Stick uncanny valley aliens in areas of critical business. People are playing with fire, and if anything is gonna kill AI utilities, it's shit like this.

A cartoon witch with green skin, messy black hair, and a long crooked nose wears a teal dress and tall black hat while carrying Bugs Bunny in her arms. Bugs appears annoyed, his arms folded and ears drooping. Behind them is a light-green cabinet with white silhouettes of dishes and teapots, and a vase of red flowers on top. The wooden floor contrasts with the flat, pastel background.

Just look at how Phil de Guard rendered a hutch in this background painting for Bewitched Bunny (1954). Absolutely perfect level of fidelity for a quick pan. Absolutely obsessed with that dude

Engraving two bullets with "this bullet only lies" and "this bullet only tells the truth" to really stump the FBI

There are two RFK Jr jokes that I've seen this year that I absolutely cannot get out of my head.

1: That every photo of him looks like a gross-out stillframe painting from Ren & Stimpy and

2: That he sounds like a spirit box when he talks.

Both are hilarious and 1200% true.

So does masked goons dragging someone out of their own restaurant, but you do you, you giant gross ghoul of a man

Headline: man fined for pretending to be ghost on portsmouth cemetary

Classic case of how extenuating circumstances should include "sure but it was fucking hilarious, your honor"

This is a lovely story.

This looks like a title card from Borderlands, it just needs Claptrap yelling about some weirdo with a busted-ass voice

This is an absurd datapoint because a small, tight, genetic pool may not even have much neurodiversity.

Now, that said, I'd put money on at least one of these Ezekiels having one hell of a plow collection/fixation.

I’m late to this party, but K-Pop Demon Hunters not only slaps fucking hard, but no theatrical release seems like a damn CRIME. so good.

I found the vacation spot

This one is a nooooo brainer.

I read this in the stuffiest nosed third grader voice and it sounded normal.

Nonstop dipshittery masquerading as patriotic web copy.

This is. The dumbest. Thing. I have. Ever fucking seen.

You’re telling me professionals made this?

Sure, ok.

Also, you would definitely be wrong.

This is an owl I would not riddle with

I dunno if this means I’ve finally lost my mind or if it means I’m fine: but I just heard the shortest big barge boat horn blast I’ve ever heard and I laughed for a solid minute

Hi everyone - especially hi to pals in the PNW - my niece is missing and any help would be greatly appreciated.

You know in movies where they kinda wipe their hand gently over the face of a dead guy and it closes their eyes. It would be a good gag if they did that on a guy with glasses. Either his eyes close or the glasses turn into sunglasses.
