I never understood what the point would be of staging an elaborate conspiracy which could fuck up a million different ways to secure your victory against unpopular and visibly senile Joe Biden

I have hit a point with my videos where I just kinda let these guys have their say without responding or fretting. Let them juice up my algorithm, the 99.9% of people who watched and enjoyed don’t care

Very funny that the President of movies is draining as much money out of Warner Bros as possible right as they merge into Skydance

For the past 7 years, my previous Midsommar vid's gotten a steady stream of comments complaining the boyfriend Christian "didn't deserve" his fate. Some even laud him a paragon of patience. Let's try to figure out why so many people empathize with this mumbling doof. (Hallucinogens optional)

Yeah you’re on the right track as I recall. although it being written in the 1st person does also kinda open the possibility that Bateman is a flawed narrator. Ellis has always been adamant that the killings are real tho, for whatever that’s worth

I think what trips people up is that the last scene is kind of shot as if some Sixth Sense style plot twist is being revealed

One of the things I know about writing is this: spend it all, shoot it, play it, lose it, all, right away, every time. Do not hoard what seems good for a later place in the book or for another book; give it, give it all, give it now. The impulse to save something good for a better place later is the signal to spend it now. Something more will arise for later, something better. These things fill from behind, from beneath, like well water. Similarly, the impulse to keep to yourself what you have learned is not only shameful, it is destructive. Anything you do not give freely and abundantly becomes lost to you. You open your safe and find ashes.

Three panel comic. Panel 1: a psychic medium is conducting a seance at a table with a small group of people. With his head lowered, the medium says, “we will now attempt to contact the spirit realm.” Panel 2: a wraith-like ghost is sitting on the toilet in a well-lit bathroom, idly scrolling on its phone. The phone is ringing. Panel 3: displayed on the phone screen is an incoming call 
 from “Creepy Psychic Guy”, whose default contact photo is one of those fuckin bitmoji emoji faces - i can’t stand those things. Anyway the ghost declines the call.

more Bernie Sanders supporters voted for Hillary Clinton in 2016 than Clinton supporters voted for Obama in 2008. The idea that some unheard of progressive defection swayed that election is a total fantasy

“What a beautiful universe, hon" says a telescope as gazes upon an aurora borealis. “It really is”, responds the telescope's partner, who it turns out is not a telescope, but a microscope. Hands full of algae, she wades waist deep in a disgusting swamp, amazed by the heavenly microscopic life all around them.

The Odyssey is bigger and bolder than even the hype can keep up with. A primordial moan of dread which nevertheless earnestly reaches for someone, anyone to believe in.

Would have loved to have this guy for a professor. You can ramble in any direction you want, whatever random thought hits your brain at any given moment, and get an A. Maybe we should keep the Department of Education!

I voted for both Biden and his VP. Yes, he did some things that I liked while he was in charge. Yes, he didn’t always get as much credit as he should’ve for some of those things. He is also a war criminal with tens of thousands of innocent lives on his hands. Either you care about that or you don’t

summary of article is basically “Twitter is a cesspool of hate, but Bluesky is just as bad bc my friend said ‘billionaires should exist‘ and some people were mean about it,” implying but not quite saying they were more mean than twitter would have been? Would be embarrassed to put my name in this

The Backrooms gets a little bogged down with miscast performances and one-the-nose dialogue, but once those yellow walls get whizzing by, there's nothing like it.
