  • Miss you

  • Upvoted, but God damn this cut me deep.

    Here's something a little more verbose to tack on, which helped me a lot through a similar time:

    Yes, death. Death must be so beautiful. To lie in the soft brown earth, with the grasses waving above one's head, and listen to silence. To have no yesterday, and no to-morrow. To forget time, to forget life, to be at peace. You can help me. You can open for me the portals of death's house, for love is always with you, and love is stronger than death is.

    Oscar Wilde, The Canterville Ghost (1887)

  • Marjorie Taylor Greene Torches Trump Tariffs and Corruption: ‘It Shouldn’t Be About Helping Your Crypto Donors’

  • I like to think she was just some lady who got hit on the head by a falling coconut, and that turned her into the cartoon character she was when we all met her, and since then she recently got hit by another coconut and now this is who she is.

  • I had a cat named Kiki years ago who was a doppelganger for your Sesam... Truly one in a million. Was nice to see a little echo of her today. Hope you all are living your best life!

  • A cartoonist's review of AI art, by Matthew Inman

    Jump

  • What AI democratizes in art, is the perception of skill.

    I was a professional artist for many years, and often noted a strong preference for photo-realistic art among non-artists, often to the exclusion of any other style or aesthetic. The people around me who tried to draw or paint or sculpt, even just one time, often had an appreciation for a more diverse array of approaches and media.

    To me, most AI 'art' feels like the product of 'artists' who don't even really like art.

  • JD Vance admits groceries and housing are too expensive but bizarrely blames Biden

  • We'll see this exact headline presented unironically as news every few months for the full duration of the Turd Reich.

  • Alex Jones taken off YouTube hours after rejoining despite MAGA hopes of return

    Jump

  • These are the same folks that routinely choose to eat shit sandwiches in the hopes that a demonrat lib might catch a whiff of their breath.

  • Alex Jones sports Hitler mustache in shocking broadcast: 'It had a wild effect on women'

    Jump

  • Who wore it better?

  • TIL Maru, the youtube cat, has gone to cat heaven.

    Jump

  • Something about human intelligence enables a lot of disappointing behavior... Animals will always seem so much more innocent to me, and so their misfortune will always seem more unjust.

    That said, I'm glad Maru is no longer suffering. Hope his mom is doing okay.

  • TIL that soda crackers were shipped in barrels, and that's where the name of the store came from

    Jump

  • Tangentially related memory: In the early nineties, my grandparents took my sister and me to their favorite Cracker Barrel (and we went to a lot of Cracker Barrels with them), somewhere in or around Pennsylvania.

    It was more or less the same, notably bigger, and right when you walked in, there was a big, old busted barrel, with a plaque that claimed this to be the cracker barrel for which the chain was named. It had several broken planks, and if you looked inside, you could see chewed-open boxes of crackers... And as soon as you looked, a mouse would zip out of the cracker box so fast it'd make you jump, and everybody in the gift shop would laugh their asses off.

    Then they let you in on the joke, and the cashier showed you they press a button behind the counter that triggers the mechanical mouse, and you join the in-group of people in the gift shop waiting for the next unsuspecting victim to walk through the front door.

  • Stephen Miller Blasted for Attacking Anti-Authoritarian Protesters in DC as 'Stupid White Hippies'

    Jump

  • "Stupid doodie heads, the lot of 'em," Miller was also heard to have said before lying down for his afternoon nap. "A bunch of stinky, dumb, poo poo butts," he murmured, just moments before sucking his thumb and being tucked in.

  • Talk about the pot calling the kettle stupid and white.

  • He makes me think of Mok from Rock and Rule (which is a dope movie in spite of starring Stephen Miller back when he had hair).

  • My landlord will fix any problem I point out to him, as long as I am willing to wait somewhere between 2 weeks and however long I hold the lease.

  • Surveillance-Minded Parents Can Now Hide AirTags In Kids Shoes

    Jump

  • Kids have a distinct advantage in this ongoing consumer tech war between parents and kids.

    I don't use TikTok, but I'd be pretty surprised if this wasn't already starting to trend there, along with ideas for where to put the airtags to fool parents.

    Maybe just... talk to your kids?
