i think if you are a prominent DJ who used to make headbanging dance music, releasing a snoozefest ambient music "album" should be a misdemeanor offense punishable by 500 hours of community service

Is there a name for the phenomenon where someone recasts a pathetic or insane performance (Saul and Walt in the clip above) as valorous or bad-ass?

Reminds me of Randy Newman's "You Can Leave Your Hat On", a paranoid satire by him, top 10 strip club anthem as a cover by Joe Cocker

Imagine viewing this and concluding that academic Gender Studies is no longer relevant as a field of inquiry.

We're at war in Iran, the president is already talking about another war with Cuba, and the White House and secretary of state are spending their time doing a roundtable on Name, Image, and Likeness rights in college sports?

one of the war nerd guys put it very well, they know which way the wind is blowing poll-wise and are trying to do "as much harm as possible" in the time they have

Markwayne is actually a noble title, and is the Oklahoma equivalent to "Marquis," and may be passed on at the same time your father gives you his car dealership

Sorry I'm not more open-minded about LLMs, it's just some fucking maniacs shoveled out a bunch of useless bloatware featuring that technology, did not give me any chance to opt out, reorganized the entire economy around it, zeroed out gains made by green energy, and made it impossible to buy RAM

the US can maintain a hugely asymmetric casualty rate by fighting with missiles at standoff distance - committing cargo planes, amphibious landing, tanks, etc basically guarantees that the front line will turn into a d-day style bloodletting

gotta say, "the modern right is built entirely around vice signalling" seems like a theory with legs

sound advice, though worth mentioning toyota's e-cvt is leagues better than variable-pulley systems, not really the same thing despite the name

Sorry but I love it every time that the fraud betting apps go health insurance mode and find the smallest discrepancy to justify not paying out to the inside traders who are its core customer base. Eat shit.

Again, it is interesting that a single generation was entrusted with the richest, most advanced empire the world had ever known and was just uninterested in keeping it going

it's pretty odd for any actor to get surgery that paralyzes the muscles that allow them to make facial expressions, but especially so for the guy singularly known for making weird faces
