A really funny complaint about the Zohran discount grocery store idea is that non-poor people could use it when there’s a grocery store half a mile from my grocery store that has everything cost 20% more that rich people go to because they don’t want to shop with normal people.

More cops have been arrested for using flock cameras to stalk women than there are transgender athletes in youth sports.

Big Walk is so awesome I wish friends were real

while i don't think i'm gonna play this since i don't have much time for multiplayer stuff these days, i think this is easily the most thoughtful and intentional of all the "do silly co-op with your friends at some goofy semicoordinated activity" games that dominate buzz rn. good on house house!

This will be the US if the SCREEN Act passes. Call your Senators before August 5 and tell them that you oppose the SCREEN Act, KOSA, and the KIDS Act. Use the official lookup tool at www.senate.gov/senators/sen... to find yours by state.

my hot take about superhero media is that we absolutely need it - it is a necessity, and it needs to be formulaic. i think people who complain about 'superhero movie fatigue' have just grown out of it, and that's fine, but there is always a new generation of people who need them

seeing an uptick in people using "larper" as slang for "poser" again so I have resumed responding to anyone who does that with enthusiasm for actually participating in LARP until they stop that nonsense and maybe try a LARP or two

there's a secret third thing about it being august now and that's that it marks 10 years since "Don't Worry, You're Great", still my most "successful" album to date, came out. it still means a lot to me and I'll be posting a lot about it in the days to come. in the meantime, listen / pwyw:

Obama chuckled. “You mean The Disintegration Loops?”

Threads finally got its first good post

if I ever taught film criticism lesson one would be “you being smarter than the movie is not interesting to anyone”

The diarrhea lettuce company, Taylor Farms, uses slave labor contracted from the Arizona Dept. of Corrections. The backbreaking labor is often performed by imprisoned Mexican nationals who would be otherwise ineligble to work in the US. They are paid $1.50 an hour.

The Diarrhea Lettuce Company Has Been Linked to Forced Labor

The lettuce-producing Taylor Farms was linked to the widespread use of prison labor before its involvement in a cyclospora outbreak.
