I was touched by the hand of collective creativity today
A picture of a green and yellow aspic containing corn, carrots, and other vegetables on a white plate sits above the phrase "And yet a trace of the true self". Beneath it, a picture of Doctor Dreadful Food Lab sits on top of the phrase "Exists in the false self".

Each new reddit post like this I've seen since 2016 has radicalized me past "divorce his ass" and directly into "if you're not gonna kill him you need to at least brand him like a medieval prisoner so the rest of us can know that he's a fetid troglodyte".

Dolly Parton wasn't an angel—she was a series of choices that made her feel like one. She could have been a cruel, bitter billionaire, but she chose kindness, care, and helping kids. I point this out because it is a choice, and that means you can choose it too.

Starbucks Workers United @sbworkersunited.org · 25/08/2026
🚨BREAKING: Our union of over 12,000 baristas are officially calling for a Starbucks boycott. Read this statement penned by Starbucks workers on why a boycott from ALL customers, allies, and organizations is necessary to fight back against corporate greed:
BOYCOTT STARBUCKS is written inside a zig-zaggy speech bubble against crumbled paper. Beside it are the Starbucks Workers United logo and an image of a coffee cup being poured out.We, the 12,000 and growing members of Starbucks Workers United, call on everyone who stands with working people to boycott Starbucks until they finalize a contract with union baristas and stop union-busting.
What we’re fighting for is simple: a minimum $17/hr wage, enough hours to live on, better staffing in our stores, and basic workplace protections. Every year, our living costs rise but our wages don’t keep up – a growing pressure many American workers are feeling as corporate greed accelerates unchecked in our country. 
Starbucks is banking on customers' blind loyalty to the integrity and values this company once stood for in order to keep squeezing them for profits. At a time when working-class people across the country are struggling in a challenging economy, it is no longer possible to be both a Starbucks customer and in support of workers; choosing to spend money at Starbucks is choosing a law breaking corporation over the baristas who make your coffee everyday exactly as you ask for it.
Starbucks has violated U.S. labor law more than any other company in modern history–the NLRB and its judges have found that Starbucks committed hundreds of labor violations and there are currently more than 550 unresolved unfair labor practice charges still pending against the company. Instead of finalizing a fair and reasonable union contract, Starbucks has repeatedly demonstrated a lack of care for the workers who fuel the company’s profits by wasting millions of dollars on AI and technology that doesn’t work, launching countless gimmicky drinks designed to distract from real problems, and inventing pointless policies that do nothing but make our jobs harder. 
This ongoing, irrational behavior by Starbucks and its refusal to settle a fair union contract with workers leaves us with no other choice than to call for a boycott. We know when working people stand up together, we win. 
No Contract? No Coffee.

I have many theories of slop, but my current Theory of Slop is that what makes slop "slop" and not just "bad art" is that slop only ever aims to sate a desire created by past experiences of art rather than to create a new experience to be desired.

Any time you see an appeal to purity and nature as inherently superior it's almost always a potential road to fascism. This specifically includes people who insist natural fibers are the only way to go for all fiber-based items.

Since I know that people rarely remember what they say on podcasts from 3 years ago: it's ~1 hour into the Bag Of Bones episode. For the record, I would have considered both versions of the t-shirt, then just made my own that says Plot Relevant Ghost Masterbation. I might still do that.

Advertisers who make bamboo rayons better PRAY that I never get the ability to slap them through my phone. No one calls rayon "wood fabric", and if you tried to, you'd get called out EXPEDITIOUSLY. Rayon made from bamboo is still rayon. Rayon is not necessarily good or bad, but lying about it is.

Happy birthday, Mr. Featherstone. Happy anniversary, Tilita. Happy Soft Rain Day, everyone else.
The opening lines of "There Will Come Soft Rains" by Ray Bradbury. 

"In the living room the voice-clock sang, Tick-tock, seven o'clock, time to get up, time to get up,
seven o 'clock! as if it were afraid that nobody would. The morning house lay empty. The clock
ticked on, repeating and repeating its sounds into the emptiness. Seven-nine, breakfast time,
seven-nine!
In the kitchen the breakfast stove gave a hissing sigh and ejected from its warm interior eight pieces
of perfectly browned toast, eight eggs sunny side up, sixteen slices of bacon, two coffees, and two
cool glasses of milk.
"Today is August 4, 2026," said a second voice from the kitchen ceiling, "in the city of
Allendale, California." It repeated the date three times for memory's sake. "Today is Mr.
Featherstone's birthday. Today is the anniversary of Tilita's marriage. Insurance is payable,
as are the water, gas, and light bills."
Somewhere in the walls, relays clicked, memory tapes glided under electric eyes."

A little worried about what's going to happen at work tomorrow because of this:
In the upper left corner of the screen, a skeletal deer-like creature with a flaming skull and antlers is labelled "my coworkers who genuinely follow football and who put a lot of work into their guesses for the office world cup competition". In the bottom right corner of the image, an opossum in a wizard hat is labelled "Me, in second place from guessing based on vibes alone and who does not remember who they put to win".

The whole article is obnoxious and repugnant (esp. part where he says the tattoos and other issues "never crossed a line" that makes me feel like we need a tattoo check for Ken), and is part of why the Platners of the world will continue to crop up—they know they will always have their Kens.
