Look, when 3/4 of the blurb on the back of a fantasy novel is about the author, and not what the damned book is about, fuck off.

I do not care. I do not care about their many awards. I do not care how many other books they've written.

I WANT TO KNOW WHAT THIS ONE IS ABOUT.

Turns out, having a narcissistic, anti-social, paranoid, sadistic, senile asshole as a president wasn't the greatest idea.

lol, love how Twitch tells me to watch a stream to not lose my streak, I clicked on it, and it says I lost my streak.

...I watched the entire 2½ stream. I only clicked on the notification because I was curious, because it only popped up after the stream had ended.

Don't care, but it's kinda funny.

Tearing down a huge chunk of the white house if a good metaphor actually.

He's tearing shit down, for his own ego.

And no one can, or will, stop him.

"Leavitt: At this moment in time, the ballroom is really the president's main priority."

Democrats, run it as fucking billboards in every city.

It's still amazing that there are still americans that are going shockedpikachu.jpg and saying "He can't do that! That's illegal!"

Your country is fucked, bro. No amount of people standing around in a park on a saturday with a witty sign is going to stop that.

Mom calls: "[Thing Online] isn't working!"
Me: "There are huge outages online right now, I'm not going to troubleshoot tonight."
Mom: "Oh."

10 minutes later.

Mom calls: "[Other Thing Online] isn't working!"

I don't think online comic strips should do reruns.

I will fight to the death over this.

In the 2000's, we had the dotcom bubble, in 2008 the housing bubble.

I feel like now we have like... 20 bubbles just waiting to burst.

Forbes continuously posting "See what this billionaire wasted money on!" articles on bluesky is so fucking tone deaf it's hilarious.

It'll be interesting to see how they'll spin "Rightwing trump supporter who blamed mormons for what happened to Kirk" to be the lefts fault.

Just watched "One Battle After Another" in the cinema. It was pretty good.

Very topical to present day US politics.

You know what I find funny? When a website "checks for viruses" and makes you wait before downloading a file.

You'd think that'd be done when it's uploaded.

Google is especially funny, because it always says it failed to check. Never had it work once.

I was promised a rapture, but we're still stuck with all the christians.

I want a refund.

Tip to A.I-Bros:

You can't accuse anyone of "stealing" your ai slop.

You don't own anything, because you made nothing. And the computer that generated it can't own it, because it's not a person.

Sure, maybe you could argue that you somehow own the prompt, but you don't own the results.

Just saw someone on reddit ask "What has Kirk ever said that caused anyone harm?"

And someone linked to lists of hatecrimes against trans people, gay people, and racially motived.

And the immediate response was "how did what he said cause any of that?"

Dehumanising. Useful idiots. Gaslighters.

No, no. I'm not saying that about Charlie Kirk. Charlie Kirk said that about George Floyd.

Just in case anyone's interested in what he thought was fair to say about someone who was killed on camera.

The past few days, I've seen a bunch of "I'm not rightwing" followed by all the rightwing talking points on how the left are responsible for all the violence ever.

You know what impresses me?

When a game or movie has a distant lightning bolt, and it takes a while before the sound arrives.

Every time I'm like "Hell yeah! Physics!"
