My thoughts from July
"So like, you'd go home from work and you're a totally separate guy."
"But I live here. It's the Vatican."
"Right, but... OK, like, you wouldn't REMEMBER."
"OK."
"You'd just be some guy named Leo."
"Actually, my birth name is Robert."
"I feel like you are trying not to get it."
"But I live here. It's the Vatican."
"Right, but... OK, like, you wouldn't REMEMBER."
"OK."
"You'd just be some guy named Leo."
"Actually, my birth name is Robert."
"I feel like you are trying not to get it."

This is not even a convincing fake. If this is enough to fool people, we're truly cooked.

There's a whole thread in which people are earnestly debating whether or not THIS image is AI generated. THIS cartoon image, with the bent flag pole that the flag doesn't completely touch, plus a three-eyed frog and nonsensical protest signs. It's already worse than I thought.

20%?! These doofuses think 1 in 5 Americans are trans? Really goes to show how hysterical discourse around trans issues has become. It has no objective basis in reality at this point.

I get that people on Bluesky are jaded on Matt and Trey. I've had a lot of problems with them over the years as well, and I fear SOUTH PARK may have done the culture more harm than good over the years... But this is GOOD. It's good that they did this. They have a lot of cred w/ middle aged guys.

I get that this is an unpopular take On Here but we should not be surprised by ANY late night network TV show getting canceled. It's a dead genre. Once these current contracts are up, I feel like all or most late night shows are going away.

What's MOST INSANE is that they already TRIED "Basic Instinct 2 Legacy Sequel" and it was a miserable disgusting failure?
