Not only did I meet Robert Kraft, I worked for him. His kid Jonathan asked me to “remove the black music” from my gameday playlist in ‘94 & I refused so they fired me. I was the cheerleader director at the time.  I sued them for wrongful termination and won. So yes, I know that motherfucker.

9/11 is a great day to reread my viral Seinfeld spec and to remember I’m one of the most talented TV writers available to write for your show. I have $225k in student loans and my family is about to pay OOP for my dad’s post-stroke rehab, so you’d better believe I’m gonna give you my best!

Nothing has radicalized me harder in the last 18 months than establishment Democrats. Not fascism, not the GOP, not the broligarchs, not corporations, not AIPAC. The Dem leadership who denies us representation while holding hands with - and taking checks from - our oppressors.

Well dang, should’ve just memed it in the first place
An illustration by Gustave Dore for Dante’s Divine Comedy that shows two silhouetted figures standing on a tall summit gazing up at a great celestial conflagration of souls in heaven.

What Dolly taught us is that it is in fact possible to be wealthy beyond your wildest dreams of avarice but still be a fundamentally good person with a strong moral compass, and the only reason more rich people aren't like that is because they don't want to be.

I know you're not allowed to say this during the current debate, but the reason the left dominates academics, art, comedy, and music is that the right has stupid, discredited ideas, they're not funny, and dull resentment does not make for good art. No grand conspiracy required.

"oooh baby are we gonna enshittify Subnautica" www.rockpapershotgun.com/krafton-have...
rockpapershotgun.com
Krafton have big plans for Subnautica, after the second game's once-divisive co-op "confirmed the potential to expand beyond the existing fan base"
According to Krafton, Subnautica 2 has sold over five million units and is now "our second franchise IP". Time for a Subnautica Cinematic Universe?

bluesky's tag line is "social media as it should be" but it has no official slogan, or didn't, until this quoted post; I feel that I'll get as close to unanimous consent as is possible when I move that this slogan be displayed alongside the butterfly always & everywhere. so say we all?
