This is a good question and something that sounds fun to write about, so I'm going to do a thread and periodically add to it. I argue that what a lot of people refer to (and unfairly dismiss) as "modern Simpsons" is often a decade or more out of date, and the show has turned a corner in recent years
can you give us a "recent episodes" primer with examples of ones to check out?

For my next book, every character will pee, poo, dilate, brush their teeth, and eat breakfast, lunch and dinner on the page at least once, so people know that these things happen in my fictional universe.

Check-ins at the end of every scene: “Okay, before we go kill God, does anyone need a shit?”

If you (all) want to actually solve the problem and not just have another Biden interregnum then you need to start deciding now what you're going to do when Democrats push "look forward not backward" (and whether liberalism can do what's necessary)
I think people are failed understand that for democracy, to be rebuilt and reestablished in the United States. There is going to have to be a reckoning. and it’s going to feel very, very scary for a while as democracy is solidified again as it will feel like a war for many people.

If I had a dime for every time a cis person I've never met accused me of transing their kid who I've also never met and demands that I undo it or they'll kill me, I would have a dozen or so dimes at this point, which isn't a lot but I would still like it to stop happening

Some cis people see me struggling with hormones and don't understand why I'm doing this because I seem unhappy to them, when they largely didn't see how unhappy I was before all this. At least now I feel like there's a path to a life I want to live, however hard it may be

This feels like the central toxicity of these dude-gurus: They're feeding men an ideology that immediately casts it as "virtue signaling" whenever anyone states a moral value of any kind. An explicitly nihilistic worldview and a recipe for lifelong misery.

TIL about a memorial ceremony in Iceland in 2019 to mark the end of a glacier, changing the place name from Okjökull to Ok (jökull = glacier). Uncompromising wording on the bronze plaque:
"This is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it".

a big part of why you're seeing this rush to use fentanyl in the global drug supply is that quite simply heroin production isn't going to reach the levels it was in the 2010s again for a long time and they need something to pick up the slack.

the US lied so much about this during the early 2000s, the idea that the taliban were trafficking drugs. in reality the taliban banned the production of poppies and global heroin production more than doubled after the US invasion and the installation of the karzai government in kabul.
The Afghans were selling the opium we burned it. But you’re an idiot. They also used meth and smoked weed on patrol. They raped animals and children. They killed an entire village in my district with a VBIED. Want to try again dipshit?

This is why mainstream comics suck. The Big Two abuse their creators and steal their intellectual property, so of course writers and artists aren't going to use their best ideas to make established franchises better. That's why you have 50 different iterations of Spider-Man and barely anything new.
Miles Morales co-creator Sara Pichelli says she does not get any royalties from the ‘Spider-Verse’ films, Insomniac games, or merch

that whole thing about returning vietnam veterans getting insulted and spit on was a right wing myth that never happened

Gavin Newsom is an absolute freak who is obsessed with trans girls and homeless people. If he wants normality in his life he should start by having the personal maturity of the median grocery store cashier
California Governor Gavin Newsom said on Thursday that the Democratic Party needed to be “more culturally normal” and “less judgmental.”

Almost everyone I know is sick right now.

They’ve got a “bad flu” or a “nasty stomach bug”.

Almost no one will utter the word Covid.

It’s not too late to start wearing a mask.

It’s a great way to practice community care while keeping yourself healthy.

Ideally an N95 or better!

you cannot be a leftist and a veteran of the US military at the same time unless you are willing to fully denounce and accept responsibility for everything you did and the institution you served in.
