The house Springfield built for Ned Flanders
I'm sure this is rage bait but cannot express how badly I think this guy should actually build this house, because I desperately want to take a tour of it and see how fucked it is. let it stand as a monument to the actual quality of chatgpt
Oh shit waddup

Fuck yeah!!!!! If I’m being squeezed into a tiny seat with zero legroom on a trans-Pacific flight you can be sure I’m wearing a fucking caftan over my jammies. Keep treating people like animals and see what you get
Between "dress better when you fly" and seeing several articles about "why don't Americans dress better when they" in major publications, it feels like there's a creeping move toward classism disguised as fashion or taste happening and it feels very intentional.

If a student’s reaction to assigned material is “I reject the assigned material outright as a matter of personal belief,” the response should be “we respect your beliefs so much that we’re unenrolling you from this class to make room for a student interested in engaging with the subject.”

I saw a friend off at Melb Airport today & was struck by how civilized and kind 🇦🇺’ans are at public comforts. We can sit at a cafe, do a spot of shopping, take a free seat w/o needing a ticket or entering security. I recall the Daniel Moynihan train stn in NYC and the absence of seating ANYWHERE 1/

it’s always hilarious to see capitalists complaining about where people choose to spend their money instead of simply adapting to those choices

Taking a New Jerseyan on a tour of Melbourne’s various botanic gardens these last few days has been an eye-opener. How beautiful is my country? #proofofmove

one of the coolest things about ChatGPT is how you can actually just never use it. you can fill your whole entire life with simply not once using it. it's incredible.

Last night, my son asked me, "Hey, are we doing that thing again this year? Where we grant wishes for kids in foster care?" (I get to finally call him my "son" because his adoption was finalized in July—10 full YEARS after he was initially placed with us.) www.onesimplewish.org/giving/megwa...

Just finished Sally Rooney’s Intermezzo. Bawling my eyes out. Emotional wreckage over here. This woman gets sibling feelings like no other writer. Will I reach out to my cunt sister who shut me out of her life after our parents died? Absolutely not. She can fuck off and die

Every time I get a new pair of spectacles to go with my new prescription, I say “this, this is the pair I will look after. I won’t sit on them or toss them on the bedside table. I will treat them like a delicate baby chick.” Six months later, they’re being held together with a rubber band and prayer

everyone can boo me and block me, that's part of the package of being a prophet, but: just imagine, if you will, a socialist politician with a decent golf game, folks? imagine the raw power?
