I’m just on here because my neighbors hate talking about religion and politics. Bad Democrat, bad Jew, bad New Yorker, bad Chicagoan. Follows = happy puppies.

Gonna stay up all night watching random American history documentaries on Netflix and no one can stop me and it's glorious.

Listening to Gavin Newsom's podcast where he interviews Chris Christie. Why am I punishing myself like this.

If you're looking for good advice, just remember that most happy, well-adjusted people typically don't spend a lot of time on Twitter or Reddit.

Reddit atheism, early 20th century LES Jewish version: "Morris Winchevsky, a leading Yiddish poet and publicist, later remembered ironically, “For me … disbelief and hatred toward all faiths reached a high point of fanaticism.… My greatest delight was to prove.."

Eg Hasan Piker isn't really a "socialist" in any practical or robustly ideological sense, he's a solo capitalist entrepreneur with an aesthetic affinity for Communist dictatorships. Guess what the socialism of resentful small-time capitalists tends to look like?

Whole point of parenting is to make sure your kids end up with good brains on their shoulders and are physically active and are happy with themselves and are ready for a world filled with complete idiots like you can never even imagine.

Having an addict parent ruins your empathy and makes you run out of fcks to give. I saw you choose heroin over your family and make every excuse not to see a psychiatrist for your bipolar. You chose chaos and losing everything. Goddamn addicts. Ruined my life in process too.

Love this on alcohol, marijuana and ADHD. Alcohol tends to quiet the internal noise many adults with ADD complain of. It also reduces, in the short term, the anxiety commonly associated with ADD. Unfortunately, in the long run, alcohol is a depressant...

Oh Lord so many intellectuals with a doctorate-level grasp of history but no understanding of actual human behavior. Put down the book, go to a damn poker game.

Almost like social media is full of people acting in bad faith egging each other on. Huh who woulda thunk it.

Huh maybe putting easy access to 24/7 gambling apps on people's phones was an evil idea that destroys families and lives. Huh.

Used to be on the left in my teens and twenties... then got older and realized both political parties were full of it AND activists on both side are a collection of sociopaths and destruction merchants. And now here I am, not knowing nothing. FUN!

Maybe a nonstop 24 hour news cycle and an incentive cycle for people to post ever more aggressive takes on social media was a terrible idea. Back to weekly Time magazine and nightly newscasts. Pandora, get back in that box.

I need to reread A Confederacy of Dunces now that I'm in my forties and the world is going to hell in a handbasket.

LOLOL I grew up on welfare peanut butter. My family was on public assistance forever. Chaos comes and chaos goes, you just have to ride out the storms.. Bad times don't last forever, good times don't last forever. It's the way of the world.

Living in Chicago as a New Yorker is great. It's all highly local fast foods. Italian beef? Yup. Hot dogs with a zillion toppings? Yup. Pizza puffs? Yup. Gym shoes? Yup. Put a tamale on a hot dog bun and give it French fries on top? Have I got the meal for you...

Quick movie review, Deliver Me From Nowhere edition: Springsteen biopic! Light, sands the rough edges off crippling depression. The Boss looks like the dude from the Bear, and OMFG dude's music aged well. 6/10

Spend every day resisting the urge to live online. Shop in person. Talk to your neighbors. Go to the bar. Go to the gym. Go for a walk in the woods. Anything but the screen. Turn off that screen.

You stop drinking. Yo! The bad news? You still have all the stuff stuck in your head that you needed alcohol to cope with… and you have to cope with it without alcohol.

Chuck Norris passed away. An absolute movie king... And, as an early 80s kid, it was so good seeing him get a new pop culture life with all those memes back then. Salute.

No this hellsite isn't real life. Go lift weights and eat junk food and drink alcohol and talk with your normie neighbors and watch movies and read books instead of consuming algo churn. The outside world is freakin' lovely my loves.
