The world’s most aerodynamic writer (with the less aerodynamic @caitidh.bsky.social).

I once asked REDACTED if REDACTED had it in their contract that they would only reprise the role of REDACTED if they got to die onscreen and all REDACTED would say on the matter was "no comment."

catching fire is an incredible movie. not even just a good adaptation, just straight up awesome as its own thing. most compelling story. so many people giving career defining performances.

retail advertisers: hey what's the most interracial a family could look? and how do we make that still feel racist somehow? car advertisers: fuck you, it's a car, you'll buy it. medical advertisers: ok so for about $2mill i could get will.i.am to change the lyrics to "let's get Biktarvy in here"

Never underestimate the straight white male urge to make everything about ourselves. Never underestimate the degree to which we mistakenly think the world waits with bated breath for our take.

Some real “graphic design is my passion” shit happening on r/conservative today. Don’t ask how long I spent on the alt text.

An R/Conservative post with the headline 250 YEARS. The post is a collage, described meticulously below to capture the inanity:

Center is Mount Rushmore. Layered over and around it:

Top center: An American flag with the text “THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA / IN GOD WE TRUST,” a SpaceX starship and a stealth bomber are there too. Y’know: aerospace

Top left: A Betsy Ross-style flag with “250” in the star circle

Top right: The Declaration of Independence document, a “250” anniversary logo, the Liberty Bell, and portraits of Benjamin Franklin and John Adams 

Middle: Reagan’s presidential photo and Trumps post assassination photo photoshopped above the Mount Rushmore faces, alongside Marco Rubio in grandma specs and an unidentified man in sunglasses

Center right: The Statue of Liberty and One World Trade Center (we love modern architecture)

Far right: A classical painting of a woman in white robes holding a flag (Columbia?)

Bottom left: Washington Crossing the Delaware painting, overlaid with Iwo Jima flag-raising photo (the flag pole looks like it’s being rectally inserted into the stealth bomber), and a bald eagle for good measure
