Narrator: "The Confederate forces continued their preparations, but still General McClellan refused to advance." Shelby Foote: "Now one time I saw a gator chowin down on a hush puppy, if you c'n believe it." [Smiles into the camera for 3 seconds] "Pshaw!"

Sorry i meant to say we need more celebrities to donate $100 million to suicide hotlines so we can call someone who will beg us not to kill ourselves when the state takes away our medication and housing, and then send the cops to our home if we say the wrong series of words. My bad.

Just trying to post pictures of a warhammer dude I painted and Bluesky keeps eating the posts. I do not have the energy to re-write the caption and alt-text a third time, I am wasting precious baby-nap time. Fuck this stupid webbed site.

"OK, everyone! Thank you for coming to this panel on the detrimental effects of memetic turns of phrase - or "poster's lingo" - leaking into academic discourse. In this essay, I will..."

Tbh, it is pretty funny to say "How dare you accuse me of being insensitive to the plight of the poor? You must be one of those people who fake being poor for all the obvious benefits that provides, just like everyone else who disagrees with me!"

Why do people feel the economy is bad when charts show the economy is good? Because we are in the middle of a paradigm shift about what people's definition of a "good" economy is.

I take a walk but the air is acrid from another country on fire. I stop into a gas station to buy nachos - the last food not linked to cases of ultradiarrhea. On the radio I hear the president announce we've somehow lost two wars to the same country at the same time. I think, thank you capitalism.

The average English shop looks like the offspring of a vape store and a pop-up ad. You'll see something that looks like the last holdout in a derelict food court but also simultaneously looks like the physical embodiment of a phishing scam, but it's actually a beloved local chain with 200 locations.

People joke a lot about whether Tom Bombadil should or should not have been in the movies, but damn I'm glad Ghân-buri-Ghân didn't show up. Did not need to see that guy.
