Do you know what a farm vet does? He helps cows get well so they can live long enough to be turned into Quarter Pounders. It's ridiculous!

Listen I'm tired and I'm cranky and who to blame but capitalists?

I'm saying I'm mad at the situation

Counterpoint: what if the work is universally adored because standards of taste have been systematically lowered by cynical capitalists, overrated is a great word for that

This sounds insufferable. This sounds like being so unable to read the room that it counts as a learning disability

You can't post this and expect me to believe we aren't living in a simulation

Morrissey and the Smiths come up in ‘After The Hunt,’ Luca Guadagnino’s new cancel culture thriller starring Julia Roberts, and the actress talked about it in a new interview with ‘The Times’

Has anyone else noticed that Don Jr. and Eric are Master Blaster from ThunderDome? Like if Don Jr. were to ride Eric's shoulders

That new Thurston Moore book has heavy "dinner at your girlfriend's coworker's house and you're stuck with the coworker's boyfriend and he's showing you his CD collection" vibes

SWIFT: Trav, honey?
KELCE: (looks up from first edition Krazsnahorkai in original Hungarian) (pauses rare Steve Reich LP, Japanese pressing) Yes?
SWIFT: What rhymes with "thighs"?
KELCE: Hmm. "Belies," perhaps?
SWIFT: (under her breath) Oh for fuck's sake

I think there needs to be a strict one hour of screen time rule for everyone. Even if it's your job

A someone who has written extensively about the eugenic roots that permeates those who claim to be building so-called artificial general intelligence, I'm here to tell you to please NOT compare criticism against corporations claiming to build a machine god, with eugenics. The audacity.

if you're writing a sentence that sounds like eugenics but you go "oh that's fine to say because it's not a real person" (whatever that means) you may want to consider what made you okay with saying that.

Apprendre à jouer du saxophone
Je joue juste ce que je ressens
Boire du scotch whisky toute la nuit
Et mourir au volant
Ils ont un nom pour les gagnants du monde
Je veux un nom quand je perds
Ils appellent l'Alabama la Crimson Tide
Appelez-moi Deacon Blues, fuck
