Trump has deleted and reposted his take on Sydney Sweeney to fix the spelling error. But he also added some more bullshit about Taylor Swift getting booed at the Super Bowl?
“Being WOKE is for losers, being Republican is what you want to be.”

The vast majority of Americans voters understand Barack Obama to be “liberal” and Bernie Sanders to be “very liberal,” this attempt to import a meaningful left-liberal distinction into American politics is an annoying affectation by people for whom politics exists entirely on their phones
Oh u think the Democratic socialist is liberal I’m sorry for your accident

The #1 way to explain America working properly is by saying “comedians can make fun of he President on TV.” A good way to explain fascism is “the President forces companies to fire those comedians as a condition of allowing them to conduct business.”

Yeah I guess LeBron putting up a 22.6 PER is pretty special, but it's not that impressive when you compare him to people rolling out of bed and firing off something like this at age 86.

Thought I might share a life story from a few months ago to brighten your day. Back in March, I spotted a raccoon on the side of the interstate that had very clearly been run over. I pulled over thinking I’d have to put it out of its misery. We ended up becoming good friends.

I think it's linguistically disastrous that somehow "goth kids are doing satanic murder rituals because of Heavy Metal Music" and "a novel communication medium could have adverse affects on the quality of communication and information" get the same label of Moral Panic. Really impedes our discourse.

I’m halfway through my first full watch of The Sopranos and I can’t stop trying to ape Paulie Walnuts’ hand gestures. The pinky, index finger point combo is his magnum opus.

Longtime powder nation member. I just remembered you guys talking about wanting to play Tiny Glade (or some other Shire-builder?) and I meant to mention GeForce Now as a way you might be able to. It’s basically really good cloud gaming.

Halftime show is a good reminder that the left will always win culture. Always. Art comes from curiosity, novelty, openness, the ability to understand & juxtapose multiple perspectives simultaneously, surprise & irony & layered meanings, all of which are alien to the authoritarian mind.

A real pain was so fucking good. "Blork" might be the single greatest one word line in call of cinema.
Also, inside me are two wolves and they are in this movie.

The Agency sealed the deal for me when they had a beautifully tense psychological scene about sanity vs insanity and then cut scene to inside a theatre showing Catch 22. It's on the nose but in a way that I think is actually interesting and rewarding.
