The idea of "living up to one's potential" has done more psychic damage to me than any other abstract concept except masculinity

It's the kind of freedom we all really want.

Anytime someone says "So I heard on this podcast that..." I immediately stop listening.

After posting "Don't catch feelings for anything that doesn't have a pulse", I was reminded about the old "humans will pack bond with anything" thread. We are 100% screwed if Skynet makes Terminators cute and sneaky. Wall-e with a brick of C4 in his stomach could easily end half the population.

The most painful thing about life is how powerless we are to correct the ignorance of the world. No matter how much I try to educate people, they go on thinking that the Iguanadon is a cool dinosaur. Igaunadon sucks. There are like 50 better dinosaurs, easily, come on.

Always be the best version of yourself, whoever you are...

People spend a lot of time wondering why the left is worse at using independent media to control the national narrative. A useful exercise is to ask why the left is also worse at selling snake oil and pyramid schemes, because I think the reasons are basically exactly the same.

Anyone have a list of media that pissed off the Moral Majority? I'm putting together a collection for nostalgia's sake.

Sometimes self-care is just making yourself finish a whole episode of Ren and Stimpy before you doomscroll.

Truth be told, we can do whatever the fuck we want, as long as we do it in large enough numbers. Stop letting them convince you to want a broken world.

A Tublr post from user Exestentialmemes that reads: This society could be so, so cool if it wasn't run by avaricious, bloodthirsty tyrants. Our technological capacity is at such grotesque odds with the average person's daily experience. We could eliminate so much suffering, if only our resources were being equitably distributed. But instead robots are plagiarizing artists and writing term papers with imaginary sources. Meanwhile, someone who wanted to be a glassblower is having a nervous breakdown because their kitchen is dirty and they're sick of eating ramen in between fourteen hour shifts at Real(tm) Job (Retail Mandatory Standing). We're just doing this so fucking wrong, all because some guys who are pathologically rich decided this was the only way to have a society.

I've got a whole playlist like this.

A tweet of an image showing an old comic book illustration of a man in formal dress riding a zebra and pointing at an ape who is firing two pistols at a different man in safari clothes. The tweet reads "Bob Dylan's best songs are about this."

Expect to self-rescue, it's easier with friends.

Kurt Vonnegut man

Kurt Vonnegut tells his wife he's going out to buy an envelope:
"Oh, she says, well, you're not a poor man.
You know, why don't you go online and buy a hundred envelopes and put them in the closet?
And so I pretend not to hear her. And go out to get an envelope because I'm going to have a hell of a good time in the process of buying one envelope.
I meet a lot of people. And see some great looking babies. And a fire engine goes by.
And I give them the thumbs up. And I'll ask a woman what kind of dog that is. And, and I don't know. The moral of the story is — we're here on Earth to fart around
And, of course, the computers will do us out of that. And what the computer people don't realize, or they don't care, is we're dancing animals. You know, we love to move around.
And it's like we're not supposed to dance at all anymore."

This is wisdom for the ages, folks... and your mom said "hi".

A post from someone called The Guillotine Shouter that reads "In my Reddit atheist days I could 100 different logical fallacies and would call them out like I was refereeing my own argument. Today I tell people I banged their dads. I am both happier and undefeatable in the free marketplace of ideas."

Why would we have a problem with this? That outfit looks comfy...

hating things is good. you have to understand what sucks before you can articulate why something is great. then, stick to your guns and be curmudgeonly about it. don’t listen to people who get defensive about bad art. if they had taste, they’d be you.
