the most essentially American beliefs are that effects do not have causes, causes do not lead to effects, your natural superiors are in power, and possessing any knowledge of how and why their decisions are made is both foolish and dangerous.

Keep getting ads for Pete Davidson’s podcast (on Netflix?) that looks like it's filmed in the kill room underneath Club Random.

Remember that these people make/do/produce nothing. Their productivity martyrdom, their bullshit asceticism, it’s all busywork nonsense in this empty edifice that exists to prop up a fake economy they expect you and your planet to die for haaa

Had a couple p stressful weeks where I was having difficulty getting a handle on a bunch of cascading problems but now that I’ve thrown my back out and can barely move, I’ve regained perspective and can devote time to daydreaming about my dog becoming like an Air Bud Kevorkian and euthanizing me.

tbf Musk probably says stuff like this by mistake just like he accidentally throws a nazi salutes and inadvertently stole all the usaid funding and killed a lot of people who coincidentally are some of the same people that nazis don't like
In the past month and a half at least two people in Minneapolis famously and specifically died defending a multicultural economic zone
1/3 What Musk is really referring to here is, of course “race” - that construct that served to define the hierarchies of wealth & power structured by modern colonialism. Like other far right racists though, he uses the word “culture” as a seemingly less pernicious synonym.

This dog is so inspiring that even after she finally accomplished her goal of eating something poisonous (she’s mostly fine now) and was projectile vomiting, she never got off that grind of trying to eat other possibly poisonous items off the ground.
I envy my dog’s singular drive and focus in attempting to realize her lifelong dream of eating poison.

Saw like 10 mins of the DOJ hearing at the laundromat and it was just a congressman reading out mean tweets people have sent him and then being like “Won’t somebody do something about these mean tweets?”

In 2017, when The Patriots won the Super Bowl, a dude came running out of a bar draped in a Patriots flag and yelled “Wooo Pats Pats Pats” into the faces of me and my friends. We walked around him and I heard him quietly say, “Awww they don’t care.” Thinking of this guy today.

I have a few friends that have become ai evangelists (all in the exact same way) and I do have to admit that it does seem to be successfully democratizing psychosis and creating a lot of opportunities for people that didn’t previously have the ability or opportunity to lose their minds.

Sometimes wonder if only sleeping 3-4 hours a night for decades has had some negative long term effects (beyond being so tired that my life is essentially unlivable and my never fully awake brain operating as a conduit for creatures from the realm of nightmares).

You’re describing an emergency. The world is also watching you and waiting for you to do something.
Are you going to establish an eviction moratorium? Rent is due today.

They’re taking kids from Minnesota and sending them to detention camps. They’re shooting American citizens in the street and locking investigators out of the crime scenes. The world is watching what happens next.
Hundreds of people spelled out the distress signal "SOS" on Bde Maka Ska in Minneapolis on Friday, Jan. 30.

It’s not surprising that Aronofsky would make an AI history channel show since his last movie felt like it was written and directed by a guy who keeps dozing off while also half reading a Medium article on how to write a streaming tv show.

Barefoot guy at the laundromat told me that he could see people’s auras from a block away and they were always either “nice” or “mean” and was like, “Watch I’ll prove it. That person walking in is mean.” And then he said hi to a woman that ignored him and was like, “See?”
