Freedom of the Press is irrelevant if fascist billionaires control all of our media.
If Paramount is allowed to take over Warner Bros. Discovery, the conservative billionaire Ellison family will control:

Paramount Studios
CBS
CNN
MTV
HBO
Comedy Central
Nickelodeon
Cartoon Network
Warner Bros.
DC Studios
Fandango
New Line Cinema
TNT Sports
TBS
Oracle

And more.

in all seriousness there’s a fun variation of chess called bughouse where if you capture a piece on your board you hand it to your teammate and they can place it on their board it’s insane and fun sorry this is my chess post for the day

"whatever you gentleman think is right"
i think about this preview screenshot of caius cosades' face on the Morrowind Enhanced Textures nexusmod page far too often. i've never used the mod because most attempts to upscale textures meant for low poly or lord forbid billboard sprites are a fucking travesty. anyway here you go.

I've been doing info material for the shingles vaccine during my day job

YOU DO NOT WANT SHINGLES. GET THAT VACCINE IF YOU'RE ELIGIBLE.
PSA: if anyone in your life is trying to dissuade you from getting the shingles shot, you should probably assume that person hates you, and wants you to suffer. There is literally no other explanation.

Shingles hurts worse than childbirth. Worse than knee surgery. Worst pain of my life.
I am baffled by this because I have had so many friends with shingles and NONE of them made it sound fun. Not one. A vaccine that made me absolutely miserable for 48 hours would still be a huge improvement over the mildest case of shingles I've heard of. (Also it made me tired for 1 day.)

Again with tech that sells itself as a magic finger snap
Genuinely funny that the agencies behind two different poorly-received AI-generated corporate ad campaigns *in the last six weeks* have both responded to criticism by saying "Hey we worked really hard on this!" Insane way for a professional studio to communicate, "Sure you hated it but we TRIED!"

Jimmy Fallon: And you say you have a bridge to sell?

Guest: That's right. The Brooklyn Bridge.

Audience: *halfhearted claps*

Fallon (nodding at the audience): It's a famous bridge.

Fallon (turning back to guest): That's amazing! Wow!

Prosecutors are just cops in better suits.
Months after a judge tossed out his 1998 murder conviction, Jimmie Duncan is free on bail.

But prosecutors have asked the Louisiana Supreme Court to reinstate the death penalty for Duncan, even as the victim’s mother has come to support his release.

Draw your kinks y’all.

Your dirty, nasty kinks that so called normal society will look down on you for.

Because it doesn’t matter. Because drawing any porn is distasteful to them. You could draw the most basic missionary crap and they’ll still want to hang you.

Be free. Be a lil weird. Be loved.

I was visited by three spirits last night.

The first, peppermint schnapps, showed me an image of Christmas past, when I made the mistake of imbibing peppermint schnapps.

The second, cachaça, showed me an image of what I'll be drinking on the 25th.

The third, mead, showed me the future.

Ow.

Our Dumb Century was dreadfully significant in the development of my sense of humor, there are too many great gags to name but starting off the most significant event of the 20th century with a typesetting joke is peak

If we want peace, we'll need to foster international grassroots resistance to all forms of state aggression—opposing Trump's strikes on fishing boats, the genocide in Palestine, the genocide in Sudan, Putin's land grab in Ukraine, and the state itself as an institution.
