every second clip I see on social media now is someone talking into a microphone as part of a podcast. I feel like I live in a dystopian novel where people are only capable of transmitting information in podcast form

Fallout season 2 premiere was siiiiiiiiiiiiiiick, I’m so ready to watch Walton Goggins and Ella Purnell figure out the best way to New Vegas that doesn’t involve crossing paths with a deathclaw

A Battle with My Blood
When I was diagnosed with leukemia, my first thought was that this couldn’t be happening to me, to my family.

'hope this helps' has to be one of the top ten most annoying snarky internet responses of the 2020s

It feels disingenuous to talk about "Donald Trump’s decisive victory among working-class people" without acknowledging other factors that drew those people to Trump; if it truly were just about class then Black working class voters would have voted for him in overwhelming numbers, and they didn't.
Right-wing parties and politicians from One Nation to Donald Trump decry their left-wing rivals as "elitist". Do they have a point?
One Nation and co think progressive politics is elitist. Are they right?

zoomers making fun of millennial cringe makes me laugh because I can literally see the influence of millennials I’d consider cringe (Jenna Marbles, Buzzfeed, basically any YouTuber) on their mannerisms and way of speaking on TikTok every single day. millennial cringe raised you I’m sorry to say 😭

does every piece of media really need a companion podcast… what do people think will happen if they’re left alone with their thoughts for five minutes…

I commented on a Gianmarco Soresi video where he was doing crowd work with a college professor who admitted to using ChatGPT to help simplify concepts for her students and now the worst people in the world keep replying to tell me why that’s good, actually

spare a thought for journalists who have to keep using the same photos of elon musk in the oval office in may because he's barely been photographed by getty photographers since then

I'm desperate for someone who thinks Zohran believes in both communism and radical jihadism to explain to me what they think both of those things are, and in which ways they are compatible

It being Halloween has me thinking about the fact that without it, Australia doesn't really have a holiday that's largely about whimsy. Sure, Christmas & Easter are fun, but also ostensibly about Jesus – Halloween is far more divorced from its pagan origins and is really just about candy & costumes

I often feel bad for not paying closer attention to Australian news but whenever I do check in I see something ridiculous like people talking about the Prime Minister's choice of t-shirt and I wonder why I bothered
