I can already see myself living in a cave, dressed in animal skins, explaining to my kids that society collapsed because one day Cloudflare went down for 2 hours and every single object we owned stopped working

Saw Rebecca Black at The Forum last night, and the vibe was immaculate. She was stoked because it's the biggest solo headline show she's ever had 🥹
& dunno what it is about The Forum, but every show I've seen there, the whole audience has been super happy & hyped without being aggressive, it's nice

Finally watching the Alien Weaponry doco, and it's great. A lot of moments that are cute (!!) and funny, and sad, and dramatic

"It's very difficult to always keep pace with inflation. It's sort of ironic, if that's how we peg everything, when inflation goes down, do you end up paying some of it back?"

This is so stupid, everything this guy said in the article is this stupid, & now I'm more stupid for having read it

every adult should know how to craft something. i use that loosely: cook a meal, do a bit of DIY, sew a button, grow a plant.

if there is nothing in this world that you can make yourself... why. what are you doing
Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?

Feeling good after my 6am bootcamp session
On reflection, all those 'fixed it for you' headline rewrites you all did were correct

The phone numbers where I lived in my youth were only 4 digits long. My home number was 8465.
If anyone needs me I will be in the museum, lying down next to the bog bodies.

Just casually throwing back to December when the (democratically-elected) president of SK justified martial law by claiming there were NK infiltrators in the opposition party, & it lasted like 6 hours, & he got impeached & arrested, & military heads that had refused his orders got medals
The president just gathered the highest ranking officers in the military to tell them that he may order them to kill American citizens -- and that they better follow his orders. All in response to a series of crises that have no basis in reality.

I don't know how to yell any louder.
