This John Candy documentary is going to leave me needing an electrolyte IV isn't it

i don't deserve this kind of treatment

Calling it Project 2029 lets me know it's being put together by the kinds of people who think we need to be a direct foil to the Republican Party, framing our response by their terms, and thus signals to me I can safely disregard their ideas, so

From Bluesky moderation to the US Government, putting people in charge who don't really understand how anything should work is a growing problem. In this essay

just, you know, maybe stop relying on ChatGPT and psychics is all

It's funny to me every time there's a new hit show and everyone talking about it is like, "god, it's so awful to watch!", "i'm so uncomfortable watching this!", "[main character] is so miserable!"

"You HAVE to watch it!"

Anyway I'm hearing terrible things about Pluribus
