Apropos of nothing, there is something weirdly evocative about these early-mid 90's Jolly Ranchers ads (when they were square!) 🧵

Kimberly Akimbo was just ok. The cast was great! It’s the play itself that...i dunno. Not sure why it got all those Tonys.

Do you think unbending Clippy until he was a long piece of metal would be painful for him. Or do you think it would cause him to feel a great sense of relief

There are very, VERY few people who are equipped to talk about this shooter correctly given the brainrot written on the shell casing. You have to understand so much of online culture to get it and also understand how that culture is both connected to and separate from real world ideological spaces

It's worth asking why every elite institution is issuing statements like this rather than pointing out the obvious fact that the institutional right commits and glorifies violence far more than the left. Is there a reason you feel you can't say that out loud? www.nytimes.com/2025/09/10/o...
Whatever the killer’s motives, it is clear that political violence is a problem that extends across ideology. Prominent conservatives, moderates and liberals have all been victims in recent years.

All these stories about the Evergreen shooter's "radicalization by ab extremist group" without any mention of what the politics are pf said group...🧐 The fact that the Sheriff is being so vague tells you all you need to know .

My favorite part of THE INNOCENTS ABROAD is Twain and co. doing bits
thing for a guide to say.
There is one remark (already men-tioned), which never yet has failed to disgust these guides. We use it always, when we can think of nothing else to say. After they have exhausted their enthusiasm pointing out to us and praising the beauties of some ancient bronze image or broken-legged statue, we look at it stupidly and in silence for five, ten, fifteen minutes-as long as we can hold out, in fact-and then ask:
"Is—is he dead?"

For #FossilFriday, a 2-for-1 special with a Late Cretaceous body fossil (ammonite) bearing tooth traces of a biting mosasaur matching the dental records of _Platecarpus_. Display seen at the U. of Michigan Museum of Natural History (Ann Arbor MI) in June '24. 🧪🦷🕳️ #ichnology
Large (about 30 centimeters/12 inches wide) ammonite fossil in a display case, roundish from incompletely preserved spiraling of its chambers and mostly copper-brown but a little iridescent from "mother of pearl" (aragonite) in its shell. The shell has 3 parallel rows of 3-4 holes representing multiple bite traces inflicted by a mosasaur.

There is much debate, but the one thing the philosophers can agree on is Iowa is in the Midwest. Therefore, I propose the degree to which other places are located in the Midwest corresponds to the degree to which they exhibit Iowaness.

#MSH45 | Aug. 1980 On a mid-August afternoon, a helicopter settles onto the Pumice Plain—the dead north slope of Mount St. Helens, buried by avalanche, seared by pyroclastic flows. Out steps USGS volcanologist Dan Miller, 37. His goal? Cook a 50-lb pig in the ash.

this is why I pay for photoshop
the movie poster for Midsommar with the young woman wearing a floral laurel around her head and crying is replaced by the face of Ernest P. Worrell from the Ernest movies making one of his trademark contorted expressions with one eye pointing inward and one looking at the camera and his mouth twisted into an O-face with an Elvis lip curl. The poster says "Ernest Goes to Midsommar" in the comic sans-esque "Ernest goes to" font in red with a yellow drop shadow and the original serif "Midsommar" font in a weathered off-white
