I saw that there is a new show called Monster on Netflix where each season is about a Serial killer. Are we not bored of this yet? I would much rather watch a show about cool people doing cool things instead of the continuous glamorization of evil.

You know, if he hadn't been wrong about pivoting to video, whatever that fiasco "metaverse" nonsense was, his "AI friends" junk, and if he and Meta weren't responsible for sucking up and selling all your data to the highest bidder...

I mean...why do people continue to listen to this utter clown?

❝ The world of cereal box record collecting is unique, in that the songs themselves and the audio quality are of lesser importance. “They’re fascinating insights into our past,” Cumella said. “Today, it stands out as a bizarre artifact of another time that we would put a record on a cereal box.” →

Cereal Box Records Sound Horrible. They Still Look Incredible.

Decades ago, singles were printed on cereal boxes as cutout prizes. Now, a dedicated few are working to save these cardboard treasures from extinction.

Political violence disproportionately hurts people with less power, not people with more power. Political violence will disproportionately hurt people of color and women and LGBTQ people. It’s not fair, but that’s the way it works. Celebrating political violence means at best indifference to that.

Political violence is bad. It usually begets more political violence.

Celebrating political violence is bad. It usually encourages more political violence, against various targets.

Campus shootings are bad. They make everyone on campus less safe.

It's bad that what I wrote here is controversial.

Why is xenophobia so important to some people? It feels like there are people who really need an other to dislike as a way to define themselves. Are they not aware of other options for hobbies?

Why is it always the last screw with projects that have a problem? I’m building a small furniture project and the last screw to go in is a metal bracket that wasn’t tapped. I guess it’s a good excuse to get some thread tapping tools.
