I saw the greatest of worlds
To be the cheapest attraction

That's what the masks were for? And the trenchcoats? Yeah, Splinter didn't do quite as good job as he'd hoped.

When the evil Shredder attacks
These Turtle boys will scare the fucking shit out of him

THINGS WE COULD ALL DO WITHOUT What not to say to someone with a chronic illness | But you don't look sick. | Have you tried yoga? Or cutting out gluten? | Everyone gets tired. I'm exhausted too. | You just need to push through it. | At least it's not cancer. | My aunt had that and she's totally fine now. | But you were fine last week. Belief costs nothing. Sometimes the kindest thing you can say is simply: I believe you.

a four-panel stick-figure cartoon panel one: three standing figures. from left to right, a guy wearing a necktie looking at his phone, an angry MAGA guy yelling FUCK YOUR FUCKIN POST FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU, and a rando just standing there like an NPC. panel two: the guy looking at his phone shows MAGA guy his hand, causing MAGA to vanish. the word Block hangs in the air where fuckface once was. a green-bordered in-game message appears, reading "+2 Mental Health." now the rando is suddenly interested. panel three: as our man continues doom-scrolling, a sly grin on his face, the rando on the right puts on a punch-me face and snarls: "Typical lefty, blocking everyone who disagrees with-" panel four phone guy shows the hand to punch-me face, causing the rando to vanish. the word Block hangs in the air where that dickhead was. a green-bordered in-game message appears again, reading "+2 Mental Health."

This isn’t a hallucination, Michael Gove. You’ve never explained the millions you disbursed to buddies with your crony Covid Contracts.

Cashing in on the worst public health crisis in a century should disbar people from public life permanently.

It's only been just over a week of taking them but I really don't feel like I can work with venlafaxine. It's making me feel so lazy, and my mind is now permanently foggy. Keep waking up so late too, that's so unlike me.

Damn new meds making me tired all day. Can barely open my eyes for the first half hour of being awake, and the groggy blurry vision lasts ages after that. No energy to clean up or do housework, just want to sleep. Oh, and weird as fuck dreams too. Last night? Ghostbusters on the moon. Like wtf?!

Wait - the corner of Olympic and Cloverfield, Santa Monica? Ladies and Gentlemen, that is almost exactly the location where the old Buffy offices stood. I believe we may owe thanks for this one to the Hellmouth.

I don't know why, but reading this made me imagine Winnie the Pooh in court, with crayons shouting 'Jesu! Jesu! Jesu!' instead of repeated cries of 'guilty'. And for some reason, one shout of 'POLL-TAX' too.

...and probably even more things beyond that!

The best thing about animation is that you can create literally anything and have an artistic style as unique as a fingerprint. So why do 90% of all animated films just copy the Disney/Pixar aesthetic? So frustrating.

It’s actually FEWER Misérables

I don't think AI is going to replace all jobs, but if it DID, we would need Universal Basic Income immediately.

As it stands, heavy wealth taxation + UBI is still the best (non-communist) solution for an economy that is increasing in efficiencies while bleeding middle-class consumers who buy stuff.
