Hey, I’m just asking questions. Ignorant questions, bigoted questions, questions that have been repeatedly answered for many years. Sorry, but I’m not listening to answers right now; I’m far too busy asking questions. It’s called being intellectually curious.

You honestly cannot know the joy this brings me. It's like discovering dirty magazines in the woods when you were a kid.

Banning the existence of Panhellenic fraternities would not solve every problem on every campus, and certainly not the existence of sexual assault, but when you've got a mosquito infestation it doesn't hurt to go right for the biggest pools of stagnant water

Kyle is of course the creator of the epic Karate Prom. But what teenage rite of passage would be an appropriate setting for a story focused on a gentler martial art such as aikido or tai chi? Lastly, how would each of you make such a nonviolent teen story exciting for the modern comics reader?

sorry, but torturing the omelas kid is just a smart move, polling-wise. i personally wish there wasn't a kid in the omelas hole--of course i do!--but let's not get distracted by purity tests, here.

In case you somehow need more evidence that Charlie Kirk was a bigoted piece of shit, Orson Scott Card wrote an essay eulogizing him.

I don't often engage with the fandoms of things I enjoy because, in my experience, fandoms have more often decreased my enjoyment of those things rather than increased it.

Screenshot of the video for Anything Can Happen on Halloween starring Tim Curry, but I've photoshopped it to say Anything Can Happen on Labor Day. I added a yellow hard hat on Tim Curry's head and I put a bunch of graphics of all kinds of tools floating around -- a hammer, saw, stethoscope, paintbrush, etc. I also added a red circle with a line through it, and in the circle is a pair of white shoes.

I picked up a copy of the collected letters of JRR Tolkien for reasons, and this is the most bullshit table of contents I've ever seen. I'm actively angry that it exists

Introduction - vii

Foreword to the Revised and Expanded Edition - xi

Letters of J.R.R. Tolkien - 1

Hot take: Indiana Jones dealing with aliens in 4 was a good idea, since that's what the popular pulp of the 50s was focused on. They should have continued that trend so that the next one, set in the 70s, would be a drug-fuelled supernatural conspiracy thriller like 'The Illuminatus! Trilogy.'

In my opinion, a failure to understand the white-hot rage so many people feel about ICE's campaign of terror and oppression is what has taken some establishment Dems by surprise in their primaries. Abolish ICE and Nuremberg 2.0 is basically the floor for what the Dem electorate is demanding.

“…But on the other hand, the Trump administration deserves praise for…” There is no ending for this sentence, and no reason to have ever begun it the first place. Anyone who has anything resembling this thought is completely untethered from reality.
