we passed this point long ago. the Christchurch shooter murdered more than 50 people for the memes. if you don't realize that was part of the point for him you don't understand this stuff.

ancient meme image: four panels depicting a large head saying "how many layers of irony are you on" to which a squiggly guy replies "like... maybe 5 or 6 right now. my dude." The large head replies "you are like a little baby," with eyes now glowing, "watch this." In the final panel the large head visually dominates the image in a psychedlic manner, with the word "SUCC"

Google AI search result for “was 2010 fifteen years ago?” returning: “No, 2010 was 14 years ago, not 15 years ago. The current year is 2025, and to find the number of years ago 2010 was, you subtract 2010 from 2025, which equals 14. Current Year: 2025 Past Year: 2010 Years Ago: 2025 - 2010 = 14 years”

Keiichi Arawi is an all-timer cartoonist, but episodes like #09 show CITY's team (including himself!) attempting to best him. The magnetizing effect of consecutive spreads becomes one (almost) single cut that draws you in just as much, even more packed with chaotic energy than it was before. Insane

Well, damn. A true American icon.

Most games already have a “Gore Slider” so you can reduce the amount of bloodshed but Sucker Punch really said “but… would you LIKE to have viscera cinematically sprayed everywhere? 🥺”

Ok so when Microsoft was making the first Xbox I was doing Flash ads for them and they had an 800 page brand standards binder and when I used a green that was, and I quote, 6% off, I got my ass chewed out. Fucking losers now. Have some goddamn self respect.

"The problem with AI isn't that it can do your job. It can't. The problem with AI is that your MBA-brained boss's boss doesn't know how your job works and thinks AI can do your job at fractions of a penny on the dollar, and hears the siren song of 'maximize shareholder value'."
