JRR Tolkien: You paint that picture of the key scene from the Two Towers where Frodo and Sam fight Gollum? Donato Giancola: Sure did, Ron, real fuckin' sexy just like you asked. JRRT: What.

Switched from 1Password to the Apple Passwords app earlier this year and haven't looked back, though I switched because I didn't want to keep paying an ever-increasing monthly fee

When we hate on these disgusting immoral evil billionaires it’s bc just look at everything Dolly did. They could be doing that. They could just be helping people and every day they choose not to help people. They choose to harm. And when they die, we’ll dance and laugh and be thankful they’re gone.

The lines of MAGA attack against both Ossoff and Talarico--"feminine," "beta," "theater kid," "low-T," etc.--are a beta test for the GOP, which is hoping that anti-gay hatred will be their next winning argument. You'll hear "homo" and "faggot" in their 2028 campaigns--and they'll come for marriage.

This is the one good thing about a super rural restaurant. You walk in and see the former menu and know you're gonna have a good time--or at least interesting. You see the latter and you know you're getting dinner by Sysco with a dash of TikTok trends from five years ago.

More cops have been arrested for using flock cameras to stalk women than there are trans athletes in youth sports.

It is funny that as more people get duped by AI, the response more frequently seems to be to insist that the models are developing godlike intelligence and we all need to be sooo careful when the real lesson is clearly that the human psyche can get absolutely one-shotted by personalized flattery

They specifically want books before 2022 because they are uncorrupted by AI. They need books that have not been poisoned by the poison they are making. It's just like pre-war steel. They invented cultural radiation.

Trump doesn’t force people to do bad things. All he did was show people they could get away with being horrible if they really wanted to, and a lot of powerful people decided they didn’t need to pretend anymore. Especially those in influential positions who could push back but did not.

The entire right wing ecosystem, from politics to media to business, is just for-profit contrarianism. The formula is: they name a real shortcoming of the imperfect status quo and once they got you they sell you horseshit that's much, much worse

What made the Metaverse so funny is that VR was always destined for Furries and anime avatar weirdos hanging out in an accurate recreation of a Waffle House and any attempt to extend that to normies was destined to fail.

As I slowly work through my gaming backlog, I’m playing the PS4 remake of Nier: Replicant. While the bulk of the game happens in the 35th century, some of the logs and documents you find are from the far-flung future of *checks notes* last year.
