TERMINAL MODE

This video is clearly AI. Although Charlie's voice and words feel extremely accurate and genuine, his face and hair are obviously synthetically generated.

The false consciousness of his base is more false than any other false consciousness is human history. I thought Thomas Frank's What's the Matter with Kansas was a fun read about a weird little state. But the problem with Kansas has gone national.

I can't seem to get much traction here either. It's unfortunate because it's still much easier to get eyeballs on work on the Elon's garbage site. Would be nice to be incentivized to share videos here.

When you’re in the 7 items or fewer queue & the cashiers are changing over & having a long chat.

Trump encourages Elon to kill himself @terminalmode.bsky.social

Sorry off topic, but Steve Martin was so good in these... I didn't realize they were both Frank Oz. So good, & easily on par with his direction under Carl Reiner, perhaps even better? Reiner fully utilized Martin's zaniness, but Oz uses his talents more evenly. Scoundrels is perhaps Martin's best.

Why do we get no play here? Your assessment was true, mine possibly funny and yet...other than Hammy (reductio) we get no action.

Hey everyone! Help me grow a following here so I can stop using Elon's app. He doesn't deserve my videos on his site. Well...he does, but it always feels bad having to be there because I have no connections here.

Back pain...ughhh...it defines me...It must be why I am complaining all the time about things when they are so perfect.

Such great bit of standup. Even with the subversion, It feels expected to be warmly received in that crowd. Edinburgh Festival, for example is pretty much the world wide home of a similar broad based cultural critique. I could be wrong, I'm an American from the states locked in a cultural prison.

This album is beautiful. My favorite is obviously "Don't You Worry..." , but I'm going to give this track more consideration next time it's on my turntable now that I know about this subtle political jab. Thank you.

Like an alien who’s just had smiling explained to him

He may be out of touch when it comes to dolls, but the guy does know his videogames.

Under Trump's new film tariffs, we must prevent MAGA from calling foreign cinema "illegal films." We should start calling them "undocumentaries."

Mr Beast: Need 100 men to test this any volunteers? (to fake image of 100 men vs a gorilla MR.Beast video) Elon Musk: Sure what's the worst that could happen?

Mr.Beast "I might actually own this platform soon" responding to Dexerto saying "Elon Musk volunteered to be in a 100 Men vs 1 Gorilla video

Mr.Beast is openly promoting his brand with a fascist.
We're well past the Hitler salutes, promotion of white supremacist accounts and rhetoric, actively cutting starving children's food & HIV medication...

You're meming with a nazi

PACKERS! PACKERS WON THE SUPERBOWL!!!! Seriously though I've been confusing Shannon with Sterling every time I see the name mentioned.

If this was in Robocop you’d think Verhoeven needed to tone it down a bit

Ok, repeat after me: 1+1=2

For those of us who follow actual political theory, the question becomes, "Are you a top or a bottom?"

Hawk Tuah girl's crypto rug pull definitely qualifies her for a position in the Trump administration.

What a different world we could have.

Everyone is a composite of the 5 people they’re closest to. You’re 1/5 responsible for someone else’s entire personality. Be a good influence :)

I'm Livestreaming Chapter 15 of Vonnegut's "Breakfast of Champions" tonight on Youtube & then talking about the ever-increasing relevance of his work. Wealth inequality, socialism, automation, existentialism, a country devoid of culture, "We are who we pretend to be." And so on.

Comic of a villain with a gun to a man's head, he has about a dozen babies tied to random parts of his body, dialog bubbles say "YOU CAN'T SHOOT ME YOU CAN'T MTAZE YOU CAN'T GAS ME. YOU CAN'T EVEN KNOCK ME DOWN. NOT WITHOUT SOMETHING VERY FRAGILE AND PRECIOUS GOING SQUISH."

POV: You finally corner Elun Mosk after 20,000 of us bum rush his mcmansion with hammers
