- Death by Lightning is rife with historical inaccuracies. For example, at no point did anyone even mention lasagna, nor comment on the shittiness of Mondays. Do better, Netflix.
- Today I honour the brave men and women who fought and died for my right to make a living in the smut industry, and to publicly assert, free from consequence, that Pierre Poilievre definitely has sex with donkeys.
- Poor Dick Cheney. He wanted everyone to hate him the most. And now he's dead, and all the people who used to call him Darth Vader are too busy being starved or deported by some jackass TV host to come dance on his grave.
- I just came across this 2021 survey of experts about what post-COVID life would be like by 2025. Prof. @lrainie.bsky.social, how are you not shouting from the rooftops about how EXACTLY right the negative predictions were, and how EXACTLY wrong the positive ones? www.pewresearch.org/internet/202...
- Same question for Dr. @emilyvogels.bsky.social.
- The way that Doc Brown pronounces "gigawatts" leads me to believe that he would pronounce "gifs" as "jifs." This completely undermines him as a scientist. Back to the Future is a lie.
- I have a theory that only 3% of people who use the word "stochastic" in everyday conversation actually know what it means. Or maybe it's 28%. I dunno, I'm just tossing out numbers here...
- Hey now, for all we know, Musk only went to Epstein's island to visit seven or eight of his kids...
- I actually totally believe Trump's conspiracy theory that the escalator and the teleprompter were deliberately sabotaged at the UN. Which is hilarious. But sure, call for an immediate investigation into a prank that hurt your feelings, because that's what big strong tough men do, Mr. President.
- Sequence of events: 1. Guy shoots at ICE facility, hits 3 detainees, kills self 2. Right condemns "attack on law enforcement" 3. FBI says bullets have "anti-ICE" message 4. Patel tweets photo, location unspecified, with "ANTI-ICE" written in ink, though he says "engraved" Not suspicious at all...
- Also, correct me if I'm wrong, but don't they put little tags with numbers on them next to evidence at crime scenes?
- Honestly? I dunno. It was earnest and it was heartfelt. But if it were me, and I had my biggest audience probably ever, I'd have saved the 18-minute, mostly-joke-free Free Speech TED Talk, spent a minute thanking everyone for their support, and then hammered Trump with Epstein stuff for the rest.
- Remember what Letterman did to John McCain when he bailed on an appearance during the 2008 campaign? He would have eviscerated Trump, given this kind of opportunity. www.youtube.com/watch?v=4SDg...
- There's something very quaint and adorable about the fact that after 40+ years, there are still conservatives and media outlets freaking out about Gwar. The more things change...
- Dude, these Turning Point guys are weird. How, exactly, is it a miracle that the fatal bullet didn't come out the other side? Something isn't a miracle just cuz it's kinda freaky. And "another" miracle? What was the first miracle? Your boy's dead, bro.
- As long as we're designating compound adjectives that describe a state of being to which some of us are opposed and yet must, on occasion, endure, as nouns that define a person who commits acts for which they could potentially be executed, I would like to designate "pants-wearing" as a war criminal.
- I don't often post the stories I report here, because even people IN the adult industry aren't always interested in, say, reading about the legal wrangling that occurs in a Jefferson City courthouse over age verification implementation dates. But this is a fun one: www.xbiz.com/news/292355/...
- The reverence that Republican men are displaying for a mediocre hack like Charlie Kirk can honestly only mean one thing: Every single Republican man is gay. Super duper gay.
- I never really got the right's Charlie Kirk worship, either before or after last week. He was mediocre. None of his content, or his style, or his delivery, or his brand, was original, clever or funny. And there are original, clever, funny conservatives out there. So why'd they pick this guy?
- You can't whine about the gay agenda and Critical Race Theory radicalizing your kids, and then claim that Tyler Robinson is a radicalized liberal because he's rebelling against his conservative upbringing. But you should definitely hire a drag queen to babysit, just in case.
- Everything else aside, having your dad narc on you has gotta be a real pain in the neck...
- I get it, bro. I too was radicalized into being a commie radical eco terrorist while I was attending a technical community college studying to be an electrician. Those places are hotbeds of subversive philosophical indoctrination. Just ask my instructor, Fat Norm.
- So who else came to Amsterdam early?
- The step-by-step guide to your progressive punk rock Facebook friend going full MAGA: 🧵
- 1. Makes a tentative post about how they can kind of see the point that people have about COVID vaccine mandates being intrusive, while still espousing their efficacy.
- 2. Gets called out for a slightly insensitive joke about a female celebrity. Whines about "cancel culture" and doubles down.

- There is no "male loneliness epidemic." There is definitely a "dudes with shitty personalities who can't make friends or get laid because no one wants to be near them" epidemic. Fucking losers.
- Reposted by Drew FoxWe need to build some real social stigma around being afraid of cities. You don't have to like them or live there, but a politics built this strongly around watching TV and going "ewww" is embarrassing, and people should be embarrassed by it. It's like "fear of werewolves" being your top issue.
- Honestly, Stephen Miller may be the only human being on earth whose wife could credibly claim that banging Elon Musk would be a step up.
- WATAA💦
