songs would just come off as soapbox-y if delivered in a different way, but it works perfectly when they do it.

idk what a "yinglet" is but i misread 'character creator' as 'tyler the creator' and just accepted that as the name for his fanbase

This @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social fella is speaking my language over here

Interviewer: In New York.

Mamdani: In New York. I say these things because sometimes it’s tempting to think that all that is wrong in this moment is from Donald Trump. But it’s important that the very same people that we have villainized and thought of solely through the prism of Trump existed prior to him. And in fact, were some of the very people that were uplifted by these kinds of leaders from the Democratic Party. If you want to understand why so many have come to associate politics with an extended play of diminishing faith and trust, then we also have to understand who the politicians have been that have been leading these very parties, and that many of these issues are not exclusive to the Republican Party. They are in fact endemic within our own party.

Interviewer: Right.

Mamdani: And if we want to truly move beyond Donald Trump, we also have to understand the systems that allowed for the flourishing of someone like Donald Trump, and that many of those systems and styles of politics are also within our own party. And Andrew Cuomo being an example of the fusion of these things.

"Debate is a way to find truth" is the worst, most wrongest lesson I learned in 2000s era internet forums and some motherfuckers never caught on and just kept going with it.

And I'm saying this as the person who would usually win. Being a better, funnier bully didn't make me right.

of all the dumb shit that sucks these days, the dumbest and pettiest shit that sucks is the way people fetishize debate. i would like to revert to the old roughly agreed-upon cultural understanding that debate club is for boring friendless nerds

The Japanese parent company of 7-Eleven is betting billions of dollars that it can expand its business in the U.S. by making its convenience stores more like the food meccas they are in Japan. nyti.ms/3KTwGve

A photo shows a 7-Eleven store with the headline: Is America Ready for Japanese-Style 7-Elevens?

no the fuck it isnt

google search: "It grew to the size of an orange."

ai overview: "The phrase "It grew to the size of an orange" is a common idiom, often used in creative writing, that refers to
something growing to a specific and tangible size, much like an orange. It could be a literal description of a fruit, or a figurative one to describe the growth of an idea, an object, or even an emotion."

been yelling this to the heavens for so long lol

any time i get bummed out about the lack of traction someone jumps in with the "success doesn't define you and you have to make stuff for yourself first" self-esteem stuff

i LOVE my shit and what upsets me is that i can't SHARE that feeling

Milk'n Cookies @milkncookies.bsky.social · 18d

I don’t think ppl understand the whole “who cares if nobody likes it! make content for yourself” is extremely dismissive
Bc we ARE making the content for ourselves but it feels /bad/ when people don’t engage or show interest. You can care about both at the same time
