Look, I think people are entitled to like Newsom. Do I think a wild animal with no concept of human behavior would look into his dead eyes and immediately recognize him as a vacant sociopath? Yeah, but men are not animals.

This is a four-panel comic strip by your BlueSky friend, Pete Toms. Panel 1: A barista says, “So I went to the doctor and it turns out out I somehow swallowed a switchblade.” His coworker says, “Aww, poor guy.” Panel 2: an xray of his body with the knife inside. He says, “Luckily the blade hasn’t opened so nothing sharp has touched my insides yet.” Panel 3: All I have to do is stay calm and hope for the best and the knife should pass through me without incident.” His coworker replies, “ Nice, you got this!” Panel 4: Blood is pouring from all his orifices. “Uh-oh,” he says. I’m posting this from the laundromat and don’t have my reading glasses with me so if there are typos please blame the concept of the frailty of aging.

tech needs insane religious cult behavior bc if you used that amount of money to make absolutely nothing/nothing good you have justify it with mystical eugenics, flagellant monasticism, spreadsheet fueled orgies, otherwise they’d face the reality they’re “new computer slumlords” who pollute, destroy

Hi, poor person here. this is an incorrect trope often used by the upper classes. both political parties cater to the very rich who have oddball priorities often driven by esoteric moral values. the poor are never given an option to vote for any of their own interests at all. thanks for reading.

Honestly believe, if filmmaking technology keeps advancing, humanity will someday create a film where someone acts for at least 2 hrs.
A screenshot of an article about how "Javier Bardem acted for 80 straight minutes. 20 of them open his new film," from a journal called Film Directing.

One thing I’ll never forget about 9/11 is in the days after people banding together as one to yell at me at my minimum wage video store job bc we had the Die Hard arcade game in the store and the cabinet had a drawing of Nakatomi Plaza exploding.

Just saw an ad that was like, “From the mind of Zach Cregger…Resident Evil,” which feels a little like pouring Coke into a glass and then saying it’s a drink you invented.

Would be v sad if that thing that people have been doing on social media for like 30 years where they take clips from a comedy out of context and pretend it’s a drama that’s unintentionally funny annoyed one specific guy every single time.

Trying to imagine what would happen if a celeb doctor went on tv to talk about a measles outbreak he helped facilitate and blamed the deaths of babies who had died on the weakness of the babies themselves. I assume he’d at least get chased around by a mob like Dr Frankenstein (another celeb doctor).

Big Walk feels like a game that’s just about walking around and solving puzzles, but it’s actually a spiritual journey towards discovering that you’re the stupidest person in your friend group.

tfw your uncles take you to the jeans store for the first time.
An ad for pants that's a triptych where the middle panel is a wide shot of the model instead of a close up of his pants so it makes him look tiny. I think this is basically the type of thing they did to make those Lord of the Rings movies. I wouldn't be surprised, with the state of the entertainment industry, to learn that maybe the team that worked on those movies was now making ads for the pants store

Doing a thought experiment where I imagine a world where corporations are using the concept of ai to fire people and force them into poverty and take away their health insurance and I respond to this by saying stuff like, “What if bb8 from Star Wars wrote a poem? Would you put him in jail?”

Every few days I hear my neighbor angrily wrestling with her sink and garbage disposal and then my sink overflows with black sludge and when I casually try to bring this up to her she basically tells me she’s never used her sink, has never heard of a sink, and isn’t even sure where her kitchen is.

I enjoy every sf ultra affiliated podcast but the 1st episode of this introduced the concept of “The Monkees Unabomber” into my life which I have since successfully used multiple times to not get annoyed at weird takes I see online. I’m like, “Oh that’s just another Monkees Unabomber”
