Black 17-year-olds are adults, white female 15-year-olds are adults and white male 30-year-olds are children. The republican mind has no problems with age as a complicated social construct

Vance on public outrage over the "I love Hitler" group chat: "Grow up! Focus on the real issues. Don't focus on what kids say in group chats... The reality is that kids do stupid things, especially young boys — they tell edgy, offensive jokes. That's what kids do."

Remember, AI bros are pushing outrageousness (“casting” beloved dead performers, inventing AI actors) because they are hemorrhaging cash and need the buzz. Ignore.

Dusted off the 3DS for no particular reason this week, and I'm fully back in on Link Between Worlds.

Only really played Ocarina and Mario 3D Land on it otherwise, but got Monster Hunter on order. What other games should I pick up?

Jay would absolutely have blown his inheritance on NFTs.
Neil is convinced his AI girlfriend is real.
Will is a middle manager who everyone hates.
Simon is still stalking Carly.

That time Jared Leto definitely wasn't mad that someone threw a dildo at him. Please don't put in the newspaper that he got mad.

Also, shout out to the video editior immediately cutting to an inflatable penis, he earned his money that day.
