He knows he's a good-looking guy, so why does he keep falling into self-loathing when he talks to women? How can he silence his jerk-brain's self-hate?

I am torn between our cyberpunk dystopia being so much dumber than we were told to expect and being amazed at folks who seem to think legal exposure is something that happens to other people.
These Instagram Reels featuring AI-generated influencers having sex with celebrities frequently have hundreds of thousands and sometimes millions of views. They don't disclose that they are AI. @evystadium.bsky.social has more.

I know I shouldn’t be surprised but hearing Sam Riegel’s voice on a random podcast network ad is like a goddamn jumpscare.

My 2025 budget says I spent >2X as much last year on bills than 2024 due to medical problems, and last Friday, a New Related Problem began to surface. Today, I ask doctors about it!

NEW COLUMN: Their last relationship was “perfect”, and that’s a problem. How can they accept that a new, different relationship isn’t inherently worse than what they had?

we often talk about “what anime would you adapt into a movie” but here is a reverse: what movies would you adapt into an anime?

This is an amazingly sweet manga that is exactly what it says on the tin: a middle aged salaryman having regular smoke breaks with a supermarket clerk. That’s it. That’s the whole manga.

I love it.

I think so many of people’s lack of media literacy and unwillingness to consider moral complexities that aren’t strict black/white dichotomies comes from parents not teaching kids how to read as God intended: with books kids are far too young to read kept within in easy reach of an 8 year old.

This is, no shit, precisely the cover that got me to read this book. Because *damn*. Pirates! Sorcery! Mate Care-for!

The Pirates of the Caribbean-ass re-issue can't hold a candle to this.
Today's Classic Cover of the Day is On Stranger Tides by Tim Powers. This 1987 cover was illustrated by James Gurney, who also created the book series Dinotopia.

I have been informed about the movie “By Design”, where Juliette Lewis swaps bodies with a chair and I swear to Christ my first thought is that the director is literalizing Kelly Sue DeConnick’s Sexy Lamp Test.

This could be AMAZING.
