It really sucks that Hitler successfully fired the last ditch ultra-weapon that permanently poisoned humanity's soul an hour before he died, but at least now we can all pay to see him in a zoo in Hell

the subreddits for luxury watches are some of the darkest places on earth

Rolex subreddit post:

My uncle has Alzheimer's and is often forgetful of his possessions. One of them is a Rolex Submariner. Would I be justified in taking and caring for it as my own instead of having it left neglected and forgotten in his jewelry box? Thanks.

Batman kept a boy in a cave. And he made the boy fight crime. And we just kept tuning in week after week anyway --same Bat time, same Bat channel

I spend a distressing amount of time and energy thinking about how Dick Nixon used to drive his future wife Pat to her dates with other men after she rejected him

I found this account that looks like a Richard Nixon fan page.

It has merch.

The merch is sold by the “Nixon Library Museum Store”

Instagram @nixonfoundation

After a severe blow to head, Emmanuel Macron is now "all in on going back to Algeria" say sources close to him. "He's going to get a lot of people killed," one source added helpfully

It's always a good sign when your museum repeatedly apologizes for something but doesn't actually say what

"Why yes, wealthy families sometimes put icons representing how they made their fortune on the family coat of arms. Why yes, our coat of arms has Black people on it. No, we don't know why our ancestors did that" Like bitch please, come the fuck on

Went to a weirdly evil Dutch museum earlier this week that walked the line between "We, a family that made its vast fortune in the 1600s, invite you into our home to show off our impeccable taste" and "Sorry about all the unpleasantness in Suriname with the slavery and such. Not actually sorry tho"

So cool that whenever someone asks the president, “did you eat the Lindbergh baby” he’s like, “no but I’d be allowed to, I have the right to, I might do it later”

If you know basic kabbalah it's actually not too hard to make a golem out of a labubu. Don't recommend it though. They have a pre-existing body-dharma. As soon as they wake they run straight for the sea. V hard to counter. Lost the first one. No idea what it's doing out there. Moved like lightning.
