Yeah, it runs DOOM. There is no release time-frame right now for the PineTime Pro as general pre-production issues are still being ironed out (improved boards are being sent out as we speak). We are all crossing our fingers for it to be available […] [Original post on social.treehouse.systems]

[JK Rowling] Here's an unsolicited take from me: JK Rowling is NOT a TERF. TERF, as we all know, stands for "Trans-Exclusionary Radical Feminist," but for JK Rowling to be a TERF, she'd actually have to be a feminist and not just a bigoted dipshit. Of course, real feminists aren't TERFs, but […]

Figured this old format could use a touch-up. I do not apologize for this dumbassery. And yes, I explicitly chose have some of these with their older logos, simply because I like them better.

An existing meme that I put a large twist on. The original meme uses mostly different platforms in its comparison, but I chose some more modern stuff.

Anyway, the meme is: THE LIFE CYCLE OF A MEME.

In the top tier, you find: 4chan, Something Awful, and Funnyjunk logos (Also IRC, Usenet, and obscure onionsites). (Those are mostly older examples where you'd find memes, but the onionsites (like imageboards and obscure forums) are where you can find some spicy modern memes - yes I am chronically online) The image is of a person taking a shit.
In the next tier, eating the shit of the above tier: Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat
In the next tier, eating the shit of the above tier (you get where this is going): Reddit, Tumblr
Next tier: Facebook, TikTok
Next Tier: iFunny
At the bottom, not taking a shit, and instead having the last bit of shit put onto a plate: 9gag.

Looking back, it's no surprise I grew up hating the GOP and MAGA crowd. Just look at the awesome shit I read as a kid!

A page (16 specifically) from a Captain Underpants book. The image is of two old people, one holding a sign saying "WE DEMAND REPRESENTATION!" and the other holding a little sign saying "...AND HARD CANDIES!"

The text of the page reads:
In the interest of pleasing all the grouchy old people (GOP) out there, I have also included topics especially for them. So this adventure will containreferences to health care, gardening, Bob Evans Restaurants, hard candies, FOX News, and gentle-yet-effective laxatives.
So sit back (on your hemorrhoid pillows), turn up some music (Lawrence Welk), and grab a snack (black jelly beans that are all stuck together). It's time to enjoy the all-new, squeaky-clean, fully appropriate, and NON-offensive adventures of Captain Underpants!
