The Mayans were right about the world ending in 2012. Our mistake was assuming the destruction would be instantaneous.

It’s very simple. A reality TV host became dictator because he turned down a role for Sharknado 4 and that’s why the king of outer space, who cheats at Diablo, got to kill Africa. Now the economy is controlled by a sex cult that has something to do with Harry Potter fanfic because of robots.

Sorry to break the kayfabe, but too many people didn't realize that when Mr. Rogers was telling them they're special and worthy of kindness that he was simultaneously telling everyone else in the world the same thing. That's what you were supposed to get out of it. Not that only you matter.

In my opinion Democrats get nothing nothing NOTHING by betraying trans people. They hurt themselves with a good deal of their committed voter base, and still don’t get the Republican votes they are so fucking obsessed with winning over. Lose-lose! People hate voting for squishy moral cowards!!

I think tech's plan for the bubble bursting is to say it's happening bc they are throwing the brakes on a bunch of AI things in order to protect humanity, and therefore deserve to be bailed out, bc it's a cooperative act and they are the future, and I think both Republicans and Dems will comply.

The way the dialogue was written in the TNG/DS9/VOY era. It sometimes gets criticised as being flat and fake, but to my undiagnosed autistic young mind having characters calmly and clearly articulating issues and even emotions was SO helpful, I had no idea.

People are so Capitalism-pilled that they see "user number big" as preferable + a reason Bluesky is "lesser" than other social media. But consider this: I don't want to be in a bigger, angrier, shittier crowd of people. I want to be in the smaller, curated, better behaved and more loyal crowd.

bear gazing
A doodle of a bear sitting on a cliffside, looking at a jagged opening in the sky, full of eyes looking back at it, with text accompanying it saying "bears have been observed sitting on hillsides and other scenic vistas, gazing off into the distance for hours-
leading some to speculate that bears are capable of seeing beyond the veil of normal perception into the abyssal shadow realm that exists under ours and are paralyzed the things they see there."

The breakup
Three panel comic. Panel 1: the Beatles are embroiled in argument in their later era. George says to John, who is laying in bed with Yoko, “John— stop bringing Yoko to the studio!” Panel 2: George turns to Paul McCartney, who is seated with his bass guitar and a cigarette. “Paul, you’ve become a control freak!” Panel 3: George turns to Ringo, who is seated at his drums and wearing the Venom/Spiderman alien symbiote suit. George says with exasperation, “Ringo… lose the symbiote.” Symbiote Ringo replies “calm down, mate.”
