I think it’s cool spending four months trying to keep your infant son’s face off the internet only for your mother-in-law to show you an AI video of him singing “I Like to Move It Move It” she made on the world’s jankiest looking app

Bill Clinton is still hailed as a political genius for replying "I feel your pain" when a regular person asked him a confusing question conflating national debt with everyday people's financial problems. All the WSJ graphs in the world can't make stuff feel less expensive or gig work less precarious

Mondaire Jones responded to attacks calling him a police-defunding AOC clone by flooding the zone with ads where he bragged about how much money he wanted to give the cops. He lost his race by 16 points. Hope it was worth it, man!

Watched Taken for the first time and easily the most unrealistic plot point was a 17-year-old girl lying to her father so she could follow U2 around Europe in 2009

one of my many new beliefs after spending a couple days in the hospital after the birth of my child: every team should immediately replace its military/cop chud of the game with the maternal/fetal nurse of the game, also we should redistribute all of Elon Musk's money to them

Just watched "Escape from New York" for the first time and couldn't stop picturing the parents of the Manhattan prison guards driving around Long Island with PROUD GUARD PARENT stickers and getting mad when people don't clap loud enough for the USPF Officer of the Game at Islanders games

Sure, having boomer parents who had me quite late (late 30s/early 40s) means that my kid won’t get to know his grandparents, but it also means having aunts and uncles who casually discuss their ‘70s PCP and quaalude use at family gatherings, so I’ll call that a push

Went for a swim at Orchard Beach in the Bronx today. Saw a drone flying back and forth down the beach and thought huh, that’s kind of annoying — then I took a walk and saw it was controlled by two NYPD cops with a police-tape barrier around them. As always, fuck Eric Adams and every cop

“YMCA” is a remarkable track not just because it tricked Middle America into doing a novelty dance about having raw, anonymous gay sex for decades but also because it’s the only pop song bold enough to use the syntax “you can make real your dreams”

The Meta commercial where a teenager creates an AI generated image of Little Italy in 1954 instead of just googling real pictures of Little Italy in 1954, and the fact that this is supposed to impress me somehow, is the most recent bit of AI bullshit to break me

I’m sorry, it’s so fucking disingenuous to call Saint Petersburg (pop: 5M+) “Putin’s hometown” in a headline. Republicans to hold 2024 convention in Jeffrey Dahmer’s hometown Dems to hold 2024 convention in John Wayne Gacy’s hometown Biden spotted at fundraiser in Donald Trump’s hometown

AIPAC just spent a record amount of money to unseat a black progressive Democrat in my district, and there are no limits on them or any other PAC spending even more money next time, what democracy?

Latimer knows that everyone knows what he means by his "results, not rhetoric" slogan and his accusations that Bowman has "his own agenda," but it's still so funny that if you take it at face value, he's saying it's bad for politicians to have agendas and explain those agendas through rhetoric

the NY Post has always been Der Sturmer with good sports pages and a flair for puns but it's funny to see it go so far around the bend that it's using "NYC Jury" as a dog whistle, how dare you besmirch the greatest city in da world (baybee) to appeal to the chuds the same way like Clay Higgins would

Randy Rainbow is fascinating as a topical comedian because unless you watched 18 hours of MSNBC per day, the bits made barely any sense or even seemed dated in the moment, like seeing a spoof of a Kellyanne Conway gaffe you half-remember hearing in a cab that had NPR on two weeks ago and going “huh”

"The Boys from Brazil" is a perfect film, Gregory Peck as Mengele, Laurence Olivier as a borderline antisemitic stereotype of a cranky old Nazi hunter, 94 Hitler clones in their asshole teenage years, and this scene that comes out of absolutely nowhere: www.youtube.com/watch?v=p4_H...

A fun scene. The Nazi doctor war criminal Josef Mengele is played by Gregory Peck in "Boys In Brazil" from 1978 which always stars Lord Laurence Olivier, Jam...

in "The Parallax View" (1974), a CIA cutout uses this test to find people both dumb and psychopathic enough to kill populist/progressive presidential candidates on behalf of capital, 50 years later it's a prerequisite for getting a job as a dishwasher at a Darden restaurant
