not only is AI art ugly slop that threatens creative livelihoods, it's replacing the inherently funnier and more joyous medium of shittily photoshopped images
years ago my weed dealer in New York found out i had published a novel and said he wanted to check it out, so i gave him a copy. on his next delivery he told my ex “that shit is advanced reading,” which remains the nicest way of saying you’re not going to finish someone’s book
crazy to think how, despite your best efforts, more and more people will wear whatever clothes and jewelry they like, while you get more and more scared about it for the rest of your life
Developing an investment portfolio where I buy the dip on companies that conservatives are attacking and then sell a few months later when they’ve forgotten their outrage campaign
i worked in an elite college admissions office (not making acceptance decisions) and can tell young white men with good grades that it’s not underprivileged minorities taking their spots but lacrosse players who totaled their jeep one time
everyone rightfully loves the stew line, but underrated Carl Weathers moment in Arrested is when he's on the news at fancy restaurant where the Bluths have caused a riot — completely unharmed, leftovers in hand, saying "I'm looking at $50,000 in medical bills!"
I called up the general manager at Fontaine's down in Atlanta to chat about the woman who ate 48 oysters on a date for a viral TikTok. She says it's not even close to the most oysters she's seen a customer take down in a sitting:
Gob and Lindsay too stupid and lazy to execute their schemes, Tobias and Buster both hapless betas, the kids are the kids, and Michael combines the most manipulative tendencies of both George Sr. and Lucille to make everything worse whenever he can. it’s quite impressive
Musk is AGAIN being sued for defamation over some reckless tweets, but the difference this time is he owns the platform and, in a deposition his lawyer tried to keep confidential, had to answer some embarrassing questions about how he runs the place:
this is what really sold me. a gadget that brings you to a dead halt blocking a subway staircase so you can reply to a text by hunting and pecking letters on a virtual keyboard with one finger
At min 44 of today's livestream, Catturd has to jump off the call. At min 59 Jewel breaks the news that he's been swatted, uttering the instantly immortal phrase, "Cops are absolutely everywhere, they're all over Catturd ranch"
So, I was just swatted during my podcast.
The caller pretended to be me and told the cops - "I've stabbed someone, had a gun, and was going to kill myself."
This is the result of being doxxed over and over by leftist outlets. You can imagine how dangerous this is.
I'm okay,…
simply the most watchable movie. heist plot about everything besides the heist. every Brit gangster actor with a cool voice. 1 hour 28 minutes. sublime
Don't miss Jonathan Glazer's debut feature SEXY BEAST (2000)—a startlingly original crime drama built around a ferocious, Academy Award–nominated performance from Ben Kingsley—before it leaves the Criterion Channel in April!
I watched Jim Caviezel's QAnon-ish child-trafficking drama "Sound of Freedom" with the kind of muttering, coughing, "Amen!"-bellowing boomers who have made it a right-wing indie hit. Hard to overstate just how disgusting it was!
it’s so cool that they spent so much money to build a place where you can k*ll yourself in front of as many people as possible, forever changing their bonds and the trajectory of their lives
having worked in catering i can say the music choices at most weddings are beyond comprehension. i remember a DJ kicking off the dance floor with “I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For”

GROVES: fuck. we can’t win the Cold War now that commies have nukes
STIMSON: we’ve trained the ultimate double agent to give us the upper hand
GROVES: dazzle me

STIMSON: i’d like to introduce.. Lee Harvey Oswald

the 48 oysters gambit is incredible, though what truly sends it into the stratosphere is how the waiter kept bringing her more without clearing away the empty platters so that she had to stack them in a tower of shame
it rocks that when i reviewed 'Sound of Freedom' the QAnon crowd was screeching that i'd be fired and arrested but the only person who lost their job was the guy the movie is about and his organization won't explain why no matter how many times they ask
of course, Grimace used to be normal. McDonald’s made him how he is now, with a targeted energy weapon, because he dared to speak out against the Ronald regime. they juice his body for those purple shakes, and if he doesn’t toe the party line, they’ll dice him into purple nuggets
X is running NFL ads on white supremacist accounts, including one that featured a video interview in which a guest calls for Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce to be hanged for endorsing the Covid-19 vaccine. The league has demanded X address the problem.
Bill Maher recently revealed he had a two-hour interview with Ye, the rapper formerly known as Kanye West, for his podcast – but it will likely never be released
Just before I took off for vacation, I put together this comprehensive guide that we’ll no doubt have to update from time to time: the big master list of Elon Musk’s big, dumb lies:
I love that “Twitter-shaming a woman who fucks roller coasters and has been banned from Six Flags New England” sounds like a podcast bit and yet is a real, incredible thread about an actual person
Today in court, Trump had to hear and see memes mocking him as his defense sought to have jurors dismissed for past social media posts. He did not appear to enjoy it.
funny how Pizzagate and Qanon types never latched onto True Detective S1, which deals with a hidden society that abducts, abuses and ritually sacrifices kids, because it made clear that evangelical churches and cops were in on the conspiracy lmao
