People say “Avatar had no cultural impact” as though teaching a whole generation about the sacrifice of our brave boys who died fighting on Pandora doesn’t count as a cultural impact

Fellowship of the Ring - Frodo: *is stabbed by the With King of Angmar’s Morgul Blade* “AH FUCK!”

The Two Towers - Theoden King: *is stabbed by an uruk’s spear* “AH FUCK!”

Return of the King - Sauron: *the One Ring is destroyed* “AH FUCK!”
The Lord of The Rings movies were rated PG-13. By current rules that means that each film could contain one use of the word "Fuck". Which line are you altering to insert the most useful swear word?

I once asked on the other app if barbers take into account face shape when cutting hair and make recommendations. Everyone who replied to told me that was “gay” and “men don’t do that”…so then it dawned on me why so many of ya’ll be looking crazy

12YO girl signed up to do “stand up comedy” at the talent show. 13YO boy decided to heckle her. Teacher started to tell the boy to leave her alone, but the 12YO comedian said “no, no, let him go, this is the closest he’s ever going to get to having a conversation with a girl.”
What's an insult you'll never forget?

thanks to AI you can now become the malignant illusion spinning demiurge whom Descartes had to axiomatically banish in order to make Rationality possible
The comments on this are all about how sweet it is and I feel insane. Using AI to make fake memories of your grandma with dementia and telling her they happened and then filming her reaction

"they will be, one day"

no, they won't, any more than tires can help you fly. They're not built for that. They're a fundamentally different technology. An LLM does not exist to model conscious thought, it exists to take advantage of your willingness to see faces in things that aren't there.

Remember how all summer I had the chorus of white centrist pundits quoting my posts claiming I was fear mongering and a “doomer” for clearly stating my analysis that this kind of thing was going to become normalized and that rule of law wouldn’t matter in this situation as law is a construct.

I remember the phrase "they can't be allowed to melt back into society" re: the de-Baathification of Iraq after the war there. Like everything about that experience, the attempt was cynical, stupid, and botched. But there really should be a plan about what we do with guys like these in the future.
ICE detain father shopping on Christmas Eve—then steal his family's groceries.

Then 3 agents divvy up his paid for food—taking what they want for themselves.

"Can I just get the wife's number to call and let her know?" woman asks.

"No, guess he should've complied," agent says.

Shacoby Kenny. #SayHisName

He was killed in a Boston jail by correctional officers on December 7.

@wutrain.bsky.social's administration has been paying that Sheriff's Department to house arrestees prior to arraignment.

Public dollars are funding these killers. City and state. #ShutDownSouthBay

Something that's getting lost in this story is that the "instructor" in question is not a professor with a PhD; she is a Graduate Teaching Assistant, meaning the University of Oklahoma has thrown one of ITS OWN STUDENTS under the bus to appease a right wing grifter who tried to dunk on a trans woman

The University of Oklahoma has removed an instructor who was accused by a student of religious discrimination over a failing grade on a psychology paper in which she cited the Bible and argued that promoting a “belief in multiple genders” was “demonic.” https://cnn.it/4b6g3rd

And that’s why all dead Ender neoliberals keep loosing easily won elections to Nazis.
America is a literal fascist police state
“Defund the police” is a moderate position now get over quisling or be correctly labeled as a fascist collaborator as your narrative is only helping the fascists in power
In a democracy you have to convince people to vote for policies and positions that you hold. If your slogans bring up imaginings of chaotic anarchy, of bands of criminals going door to door with no cops to protect people, that slogan is stupid.
