Colonel: What is that you've got written on your helmet?
Joker: "Born to Post", sir.
Colonel: You write "Born to Post" on your helmet and you wear a t-shirt that says "Posting is a form of self harm". What's that supposed to be, some kind of sick joke?
Joker: No, sir.
let's say the opposition is right and it's an insane idea - why can't this insane idea have the same space in discourse shared by the insane idea of "we have to treat the country's budget like a household" the last 20 years
The country wants a wealth tax on assets.

They're panicking because "won't the rich just leave" has been utterly debunked.

They've got no actual argument.

Hong Kong fire and Grenfell are just alike. Fire spreading through unsafe building materials installed due to penny-pinching, killing dozens. One difference: before the HK fire is even out three executives at contractors have been arrested, eight years after Grenfell no-one has been arrested.

lad has said in a vid he made his idea go viral on tiktok and the most watched video on the channel is at 200k. man respect to creating your own reality but if that's considered viral then i need renegotiate my contract
guy on tiktok is trying to open a coffee shop where they only sell flat whites and it is perfect for being a hater on an economic level man. alright man what's your growth strategy. how do you increase per customer spend. they buy two coffees?

Sega has admitted sales of its games may be lower-than-expected due to players awaiting "definitive editions" before buying. https://bit.ly/4imXUqA

zack mate i know this is a big moment but retweeting everyone who's ever said anything nice about you smacks of being shown your auntie's holiday photos

i once quoted someone and said if we're debating the effectiveness of satire in a movie that hasn't been in theatres for 30 years we should probably go do the dishes and during the ensuing series of replies i've never more wanted to have chosen to do my dishes instead of log on
PSA: if you quote post me first, you have formally invited me in

Chainsaw Man is simultaneously worthy of serious discussion for its heartfelt look at society and cycles of abuse and dehumanization, and it's also like, a fantastic nonstop barrage of shitposts

I’m enjoying Pluribus a lot but if I wanted to be cruel about it I would describe it as The Good Place for people who made a point of staying on Twitter and not going to Bluesky

theres a tiktok ad i'm getting a lot of these two polite but over it actors being asked the kind of "what would you do if a gnome came in here and started screaming" tier junket stuff and you'll be surprised that no one is engaging with it

It's objectively strange that Chrono Trigger is the name of a JRPG series about time travellers dealing with a crisis, and Time Crisis a series of light gun games.

a fun thing today on here of people accusing someone of making up a guy to get mad at. but a unique flip was people pretending the guy had a different opinion than he expressed, thereby making the people replying to it the ones making up a guy to get mad at.

they've clearly edited this for retention and speed when if the real game is any good it's about the tension inherent in the pacing, and it's making the whole thing come off like the fence jumping scene in taken 3

the lad that does it again has once again, done it
EXCLUSIVE: So far it's been unclear what proof Rockstar Games has to justify its firing of 34 union members, who it claims were leaking "confidential information in a public forum".

PMG has now seen some of the messages which contributed to this decision being made.

bouncer that checks you for drugs and when you don't have any they're like. why. mate. it's fucking boring in there otherwise.

spliting hairs here but the review didn't recommend a ban, it said there was insufficient evidence of safety pending clinical trial. it was the government who said that review couldn't, say, include everyone currently taking them.
a clinical trial is something you conduct to see if a drug is safe, not something you conduct to "build evidence" that a drug should be banned.
