one thing i would like is for nolan fanboys to stop trying to act like they had ever once heard anything about the text beyond than the names odysseus & helen before now. the first time you ever heard the name "troilus" is THIS SENTENCE. and you had to google it to see if he's in the odyssey

I know the ruling class is actually worried about mamdani because of the nonstop stream of editorials absolutely shitting their pants over the idea that poor people should get to eat food and rich people should not get to evade taxes

if I ever get another phone with an ok camera y'all might get to see some more spicy pics from me at this point, the photos never match up to the what I see and know is real in the room what am I gonna do, post a shitty picture of a masterpiece?? just gotta see it irl for yourself 😌💅

starting to think the supernormal stimulus of endless nudes online has entirely desensitized me to hot people irl

"blank is a political echo chamber" oh you mean the place where no one ever agrees on anything and is constantly fighting over absolutely every aspect of politics? where "I love waffles" is a death threat to pancake lovers? that's an echo chamber that produces the exact same thoughts and opinions??

maybe the reason people still associate you with your asshole character from 20 years ago is because you're still acting like your asshole character from 20 years ago

He will never understand that being "the fat guy from Superbad" is infinitely better than being "the martial arts chud nobody likes"

Alexi Giannoulias doesn't go far enough, under my plan I would make all 2.7 million people in Chicago a cop

republican politicians are moving quickly because a) they know breaking things is always faster than fixing them, and b) they know there's no mercy waiting for the sorts of crimes they're willfully committing they're trying to outrun you and the executioner at the same time

Opinion: Conservatives' idea may sound appealing, but it's US taxpayers who will take the hit, subsidizing corporate bailouts and cruise missiles and aircraft carriers and fighter jets and tanks and ICBMs and military satellites and illegal black ops torture sites they may never even use

Love has never needed permission from labels 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈 My emptiness of gender lets me see that clearly. Anxiety tightens around transgender lives right now. Why must their chosen bonds still pass through someone else’s gate? Why is the soul they claim treated as a request instead of a right?

Anyway I said this in June last year and I’m not a top-billed science communicator with inroads at PBS…

The mere fact that genAI only succeeds at producing a usable product only sometimes, means that when it works, a user gets the same dopamine reward as hitting the jackpot, which then only reinforces the behaviour. They’re replacing thinking and creating with gambling.

your name is hank you're a science communicator you get paid to learn about science and explain it in a way others can understand you start using a machine that does your job for you but poorly and inaccurately you are no longer a science communicator why should anyone listen to you?

Hank Green admitting to using A.I. in research and scriptwriting does unfortunately explain why they released a video on HRT full of (sometimes outright dangerous) misinformation

liberal voters falling for dems the same way they fall for AI: failure to understand regression to the mean

about to rewatch The Menu while eating a giant bowl of ramen noodles

on a trail so wondrous

the internet is making me feel horror and isolation and anxiety again, can someone refresh the instance or something

this is it, this is exactly the mountain I'm staring at every time I try tonconvince myself it's worthwhile to keep writing songs even though no one has even listened to the ones i've already had out for several years now

the evangelical church isn't taxed and they spend an insane amount of money at grocery stores

apparently Walmart sells Holy Communion? that makes it so much easier!! you can skip all the boring parts and go right to the good stuff

local movie theater offers frozen junior mints at concessions 🥰 love supporting local

this croissant was made with love and also some anxiety and maybe some tears as well

slowfox@slooowfox.bsky.social · last wk.

did u know that you can cry a lot about doing something difficult and still end up doing pretty well at it? anyway, croissant dough came out pretty okay today

I just feel like it's important to remind you that the bible is a collection of Jewish traditional and historical writings that were originally passed down by word of mouth and therefore any critique or commentary as to the body of work should be made with that in mind!

listen, you can hate modern christians and historical christians all you want but you cannot throw out 100% of the bible without being antisemitic and that's just a fact! please use your brains before going on a blanket anti-religious screed for fuck's sake

"anna, why do you like progressive music so much" good question, my mom only let us listen to music that "glorifies god" which meant Contemporary Christian or Classical so I listened to A LOT of classical finally got to high school, heard real metal, latched onto The Human Abstract immediately

Christian rock and pop is craaaazy to me only because the artists can really only sing about one thing with one theme and one story

to the anarchists and leftists who are skeptical of the bible as a religious text because of the people who claim to follow it: it's actually full of so much dope leftist shit that they don't even read it for real anymore and you can tell because the bible says literally the opposite of this

Rep. Lauren Boebert insists that public Christian worship events are necessary for America to experience revival: "I don't think that Jesus ever called for any Christian to pray only silently or to keep their faith hidden only in the prayer closet."

ok I thought of an idea that would be funny and turn the entire plane against the evangelical terrorist Bohemian Rhapsody singalong just start as loud as you can and try to get other people who are annoyed to join in

no they're not. that's not true

Your average Republican is pro-IVF, skeptical of six week heartbeat bills, against deporting productive, law-abiding immigrants, and for gay marriage.
