is it cringe if i just synchronously post my bits from X (The Everything App) on here

divisive issues that don't threaten the immediate interests of capital are more precious than gold, they'll never give one up for free by winning the argument too hard. two identical capital parties that only differ on which bathrooms trans people use would be a dream come true

"And take great care to preserve artistry, artisanship, your knowledge and skills. In times of suffering, when misery is on the rise, these will loom like walls, closing round for your protection, nourishing you."

The Nahuatl original (normalized transcription and translation mine):

"Auh xicmocuitlahuican toltecayotl, in amantecayotl, in tlaiximachiliztli. In icocoyayan in ye timalihui in icnopillotl, hualtenantiz, quihualtzacuiz, ca cualoni, ca ihuani."

when you go to someone else’s house for the first time you have to inspect their bathroom and see what they got going on. this bitch don’t wash her face. oh this bitch believes in the power of flossing.

shit like this you can really tell he’s such a nerd for stories

exactly correct

we may be witnessing the first pope who loves it when you call him big papa

Hmm interesting, but did Maine try giving Trump what he wants and getting kicked in the face anyway?

anime lore hits different when nerding out about stories is the vibe

who else loves stories? all my favorite shit seems to have stories in it. real big into stories myself. always geeking out about plots and the like, i'm such a nerrrrddddd

Related: The Book of Henry is "Fiercely Original', Says Colin Trevorrow Back in April, Thor screenwriter Zack Stentz tweeted to Trevorrow that he was "ride or die" for Book of Henry, which was a box office flop torn apart by critics. Trevorrow responded, "Someday we’ll get drunk and I’ll lay out how that movie is a carbon copy of A New Hope. My favorite bar trick for fellow story nerds." In a recent interview, SlashFilm asked Trevorrow if he could explain the "carbon copy" comment for the story nerds of the internet, and Trevorrow obliged:

the "when the anime has lore" post has reminded me of this colin trevorrow moment that i don't think anyone is more obsessed with than me, in which he pretends he independently invented the hero's cycle in the context of Book of Henry, and then calls himself a "story nerd"

An image for #BlueSkyMonday. There's a bit of blue sky but mostly glorious clouds on this morning in the summer of last year. When popup storms race across the bay, it's great to have a camera on hand. #photography #landscape #clouds #lighthouses #EastCoastKin

prosperity theology is real for hair. bald people are being punished by god for their wicked souls

the nice thing about microsoft is that basically everyone under the age of 40 who has ever used a computer probably already has some experience pirating their shit. just keep it up folks

With the Oblivion remaster taking up the hype cycle, it's probably a good time to re-up that the Palestinian-led BDS movement has asked for a boycott of Microsoft's gaming products due to the company's ongoing and enthusiastic technical support for the IDF's ongoing genocide in Gaza.

@jun3buggy posting on twitter: this is what its like following trans women on twitter two panels of Calvin and Hobbes. Panel 1: Calvin is playing with a truck saying 'when I grow up, I want to be a radical terrorist'. And his Mom off-panel saying 'Mmhmm...' Panel 2: Calvin's Mom sitting at the breakfast table sipping coffee, off-panel Calvin is now saying 'I'm going to inhale this can of pesticide.' She's still just saying 'Mmhmm...'

this is still unbeaten

we have constructed a belfry outside the moat my liege . it has been fitted with 5 all-gender garderobes according to your request my liege

seeing otherwise intelligent and principled people backslide into spitting out the exact same lines that AI's most annoying peddlers do—Sure, It Has Its Problems, But If Youre Smart And Discerning It Can Be A Great Tool!—it's just maddening. the product didn't change, you just got worn down. wake up

LRT i feel like i have not seen anyone talking about the fact that tech companies did such a good job ubiquitizing and normalizing gen AI that even people who took hardline stances against it are carving out exceptions for themselves to use it in this context or that—for the love of god just stop

Please, if you love anything about this life, stop using ChatGPT and other GenAI. Just stop. Don't use it to dunk on it, don't use it for a laugh, just stop and let that shit wither.

with all respect i drew this picture because i thought it was cute and funny, not to convert anyone into an ideological communist or open a dialogue about the merits of international socialism—i’m ok with not changing your mind right now, and it’s really not likely at all you’ll change mine either

basically i think they should establish global communism right now!

ok! global communism now!

it’s not a both/and situation, unfortunately, because a lot (but not all, tbf) of the disengaged libs showing up to this stuff are still grimacing at the notion of plugging into an org. the toothlessness is specifically what appeals to them about these protests—it’s why they’re palatable to them.

my hot (or maybe tepid) take for the day is that—as nice as it is to see people getting involved who normally aren’t—it’s frustrating that all the discontent people bear against trump and musk is getting sublimated into the 50501 protests, which are nothing more than liberal enrichment exercises.

the redditors are not liking this one
