Don't forget to look up your old professors and email them if one or more of their monographs show up on the list of stolen works! We can redistribute some wealth from the tech industry back to the humanities!

The other night I had the joy of telling my wife about the time George H.W. Bush threw up on the Japanese Prime Minister AND the time Jimmy Carter was 'attacked' by a swamp rabbit.

This post brought to you by The Return (2024), a movie which dares to ask "What if Odysseus and Penelope lived in the ruins of a 13th century crusader castle?"

This statement is true, and Steve also knows what Iβ€˜m about to say, so this is just additional commentary not a correction:

This is not new. Cops have been doing this for ages. Talk back to a cop and they’ll rough you up. They have been doing this and getting away with it for a very long time.

RIP to a real one. Dick Cheney, you were taken from us too soon to see the final Fast & Furious movie, which I know you were holding out for. This one goes out to you, buddy.

When adapting part of the Epic Cycle for film, the goal is to make it better than Troy (2004), a notoriously silly film. You'd think this would be easy.

I hate "I hate gay Halloween", what do you mean you're just making an obscure reference that would be weird to see as a Halloween costume, not posting a pic of an actual Halloween costume that is an obscure cultural reference?

Riker: Hey Dr. Crusher, how was your month-long leave? Did you enjoy Risa? Or did you just go to another medical conference?

Dr. Crusher [returning from her 19th visit to the Scottish Sex Ghost Planet]: Uhh, yeah, Risa was great.

Man Lying on a Wall by L. S. Lowry. Painting of a well-dressed mid-century English man taking a daytime nap on a low brick wall. The top of the wall divide ls the painting in half horizontally. A clock tower and two smokestacks protrude above the wall in the background, and his umbrella leans vertically against the wall alongsode his briefcase in the foreground. It doesn't qhite make the Loss.jpg shape, but it's kinda close

COUNT I

Kat Abughazaleh did, while law enforcement was in heated pursuit, paint what appeared to be the entrance to a cave on a sheer rock wall, causing law enforcement to forcibly bonk into said wall.

COUNT II

The same thing on a different wall, but then a train came out and ran us over???

I've built a socioeconomic system that depends on everyone to do useful work and act ethically except the people at the top, who get unimaginable rewards for being antisocial frauds and criminals. And I think it will stand the test of time

What most of you don’t understand about trumps White House renovation is that he is trying to destroy Toon Town to build a freeway.

bourtange on tumblr: "a common misconception is that a revolution is built by years of painstakingly raising class consciousness among the masses while at the same time building up a party capable of taking leadership during a revolutionary crisis. nothing could be further from the truth. a revolution is built by making social media posts calling for a general strike over and over until one day it just happens"

It's very telling Centrists can see possibly the biggest-numbers protest in American history happen against the Right and then have their main takeaway be to make up a story about how it owned Leftists.
