pleased to announce my new RTX Remix mod for Vib Ribbon, a classic restored for the 4K era!

The Bliss wallpaper from Windows XP with jagged and square bits extruded out of the grassy field, and a photograph of a rabbit on the left side of the screen. There is fake bokeh in non-sensical places around the image, and an "RTX ON" badge in the top-left.

"How do you expect to win back men...?"

We don't want those men. They are the hot dogs on the floor of humanity and we still have all these nice prepped hamburger patties if someone would just let them cook.

People act like all the men are gone. The men are attending protests. The men are putting together scooters for their kids. The men are getting a set of turntables for the first time. The men are buying Nikes. The men are getting super into noir. They're not Nazis and they're fine. Keep your freaks.

we can't get back the men we've 'lost' to these horrific ideologies because we never had them in the first place. it's been 84 years but dorothy thompson still says it best at the end of 'who goes nazi," which you should read if you haven't. the link: harpers.org/archive/1941... . the quote:

Kind, good, happy, gentlemanly, secure people never go Nazi. They may be the gentle philosopher whose name is in the Blue Book, or Bill from City College to whom democracy gave a chance to design airplanes—you’ll never make Nazis out of them. But the frustrated and humiliated intellectual, the rich and scared speculator, the spoiled son, the labor tyrant, the fellow who has achieved success by smelling out the wind of success—they would all go Nazi in a crisis.

Believe me, nice people don’t go Nazi. Their race, color, creed, or social condition is not the criterion. It is something in them.

Those who haven’t anything in them to tell them what they like and what they don’t—whether it is breeding, or happiness, or wisdom, or a code, however old-fashioned or however modern, go Nazi. It’s an amusing game. Try it at the next big party you go to.

Pets are a great gift for any occasion, especially high-maintenance ones that are very expensive and difficult to take care of. Remember that the receiver is a good person and would never deny this gift like a bad and probably racist person would.

Ce type de réaction dit absolument tout.

- « Nous », les puissants, ne pouvons tolérer d'aller en prison (& d'être soumis à la loi commune)

- Et donc il y a « eux », les « animaux », qui peuvent y aller.

Ce n'est pas anecdotique : C'est la clef des politiques pénales de ces dernières décennies.

Reminder that Violent J of Insane Clown Posse has the correct response to a lot of the shitty things he said in the early days.

STEREOGUM: People my age, we talk about how we were lucky that we didn’t have social media growing up, and there’s no record of all the dumb shit we said and did. You didn’t have social media, but everything you said and did in those years is on record, and you’ve got to live with it now. That’s tough.

VIOLENT J: And the amount of gay Juggalos out there is really surprising. I think about them doing their research and getting the old records, getting excited about it, and getting their hearts broke or something, you know? I tell my daughter, “For the rest of your life, when your friends ask why your dad said that, say it’s because your dad was a fool. Don’t defend me. Say I was a fool then, but I’m not now.” There’s no excuse. I was going with the flow, and that’s the very thing we preach against — being a sheep. And that’s what I was doing.

the year is 2050. you use your VPN to get around state censors and log onto Xiaohongshu. the first thing you see is chinese netizens producing "aesthetic" edits of 1/6 and the white house demolition. it is overlaid with the distorted vocals of sabrina carpenter's espresso. this is your life forever.
