An evening of fun in the metropolis of your dreams

Anne Parillaud, in stiletto heels, a tiny black dress, a chic haircut, and an enormous pistol, in the promo photo for La Femme Nikita.

"The girlfriend of one of the founders of Antifa."

May December would have been a vastly more interesting movie if Red Skull had been a character.

Ladies and gentlemen, the con law stylings of Ms. Kristi Noem!

Trump's version of this video will be nowhere near as fun.

"Lobster" is a pretty good shibboleth. Not only does it identify tourists, it identifies people who have only lived in Maine for three generations.

When my brother told someone that his son was a Mainer because he'd been born here, she said, "Cat has kittens in an oven, don't make em biscuits."

I will always love Scott Miller for:

"Give me some false hope that I can take seriously."

and his epitaph:

"Nice guy as minor celebrities go
All together now, very minor."

Also because he referred to China Beach as "One of San Francisco's not-very-much-fun in the not-very-much-sun beaches."

Robert Pollard is certainly an interesting lyricist, but I'd hesitate to call him a great one.

He's an _insanely_ prolific songwriter. He's written more songs than Irving Berlin.

Criminals are bad. I'm sending in the army.

READ LEVITICUS 19 AGAIN YOU FUCK.

No, don't be ridiculous. They didn't _just_ want to make the "Join ICE" commercial.

They also wanted to evict the tenants so that the apartment building's owner could sell it.

The elimination of USAID is a moral atrocity and all involved made a choice to enable, and then lie about, ending the lives of some of the most vulnerable people in the world.

I think the two guys on the right may secretly be Bears fans.

Ah, I misunderstood completely. They meant, "the artifacts we examine in order to gauge whether or not something is true."

I'm just an old country philosopher, but I don't really see how it's possible to gauge truth computationally.

the trump administration attempted to assassinate a critic and when she lived, they prosecuted her for surviving

She’s Pat Summerall’s daughter!

Jack-in-the-Box tacos, the Jeppsen’s Malort of fast food. Even as I am craving them I know they’re revolting.

You might also add in some melted butter.

Screen cap of parodic version of William Blake's "The Tyger" that begins: Tyger! Tyger! Burning bright (Not sure if I spelled that right) What immortal hand or eye Could fashion such a stripy guy? What the hammer that hath hewn it Into such a chonky unit? Did who made the lamb make thee, Or an external franchisee?

In honor of National Poetry Day, the greatest parody rewrite of all time:

It’s bad to talk about Jews like they’re not human. It’s not bad to talk about combine harvesters like they’re not human. Since combine harvesters don’t convincingly mimic human speech, no one has a problem with this.

In case you were wondering why you think anti-LLM talk sounds like bigotry, it’s not that hard: Bigots don’t think their hated group are human beings, and have beef with anyone who does.

The problem here is not that other people don’t think LLMs are human, it’s that you think they are.

for fuck's sake, no, bsky is not selectively moderating against trans people, if anything, some people have done a lot of behaviour that according to the letter of the rules would result in permabans, and yet they're getting 24h strikes and being let back on because of community pressure.

A little later, we did something similar in NYC, only it wasn’t Communists or Irish, it was Meyer Lansky’s organization.

I think maybe you are missing the difference between the Freikorps and the modal American gun owner.

I would like to know how we can identify the specific persons at CNN who researched, wrote, edited, and approved this and hang it around their necks for the rest of their professional lives.

inventing the male genital panoply is just like: "what if your ovaries were in your labia. what if you peed through your clitoris. what if your urethra had an on-off switch you could touch in your butt. i am not a crackpot."

CEO: we're all trying to improve this place

You: so you're gonna kick out the guy who keeps trying to kill me, right

CEO:

You: You're gonna kick out the guy who has literally helped kiwifarms target me personally, right

CEO: WAFFLES

That’s totally stupid enough for Hegseth to have come up with it by himself.

midnight raids, no warrants, theft, vandalism, brutalized and terrorized men women and children, with no recompense and no recourse in the courts

Pritzker should be parking garbage trucks blocking every ICE facility in the state
