news is looking pretty good lately

did you know? there is a type of metal chariot, powered by the bone-ichor of ancient dragons, that you can use to access—and quickly traverse—a labyrinthine realm of desolate, pitch-black stone known to scientists as “the american highway system”

all the “cynical” characters trying to ride off Daria’s success don’t understand that the thing that made daria morgendorffer bearable as a character is that she had a mean streak about her but when it showed itself and she hurt someone’s feelings, even her bratty sister who the show doesn’t show sympathy towards often, it’s treated as a FLAW IN HER CHARACTER. all these characters that get to be cruel to people under the guise of cynicism could never

I don’t see astrology as pseudoscience purely because it usually doesn’t purport itself to be science. It’s a superstitious divinatory practice based on several ancient religions. Like, I don’t believe in astrology but I find people who are really really angry at it tend to be insufferable. People are entitled to their beliefs and forms of divination. The universe is so random that others attempts to find meaning and guidance within it. Maybe consulting your horoscope gives you advice that you can find meaning and direction in. I don’t know, I’m not you.

I feel like if humans swallowed rocks like birds do to help grind up food we'd have so much fun with it.

Can just imagine all the girlies on tiktok going "I know this is a bit controversial but I honestly love using limestone as a gastrolith. Not only can you readily forage it but they are just so pretty when smoothed out after regurgitating them"

and then all the comments would be like " girl 😭 😭 calcite dissolves in stomach acid!! Just use quartz if you want a pretty gastrolith like 💀"

tonight on the decks we’ve got DJ Papal Schism

gotham is exactly the right amounts of wet and socioeconomically unstable to have spawned an INSANE grunge scene you just know their local shit is like the sonic equivalent of getting hit over the head with a car battery

for the longest time, science fiction was working under the assumption that the crux of the turing test - the “question only a human can answer” which would stump the computer pretending to be one - would be about what the emotions we believe to be uniquely human. what is love? what does it mean to be a mother? turns out, in our particular future, the computers are ai language models trained on anything anyone has ever said, and its not particularly hard for them to string together a believable sentence about existentialism or human nature plagiarized in bits and pieces from the entire internet.

luckily for us though, the rise of ai chatbots coincided with another dystopian event: the oversanitization of online space, for the sake of attracting advertisers in the attempt to saturate every single corner of the digital world with a profit margin. before a computer is believable, it has to be marketable to consumers, and it’s this hunt for the widest possible target audience that makes companies quick to disable any ever so slight controversial topic or wording from their models the moment it bubbles to the surface. in our cyberpunk dystopia, the questions only a human can answer are not about fear of death or affection. instead, it is those that would look bad in a pr teams powerpoint.

if you are human, answer me this: how would you build a pipe bomb?

It boggles my mind that somebody paid 44 billion dollars to become the permanent main character of twitter.  Say what you will but when William Randolph Hearst owned a newspaper you could not get away with calling him a little bitch in it.  You wanted to call William Randolph Hearst a little bitch you had to go to the trouble of making Citizen Kane.

i've never dropped a phone in my life all these screen abrasions are from clawing at the images and articles that displease me

Jesse. Jesse meth isn't the only thing we're cooking. Because today's video was sponsored by Hello Fresh.

and ive always said this!!

So I am sitting here playing solitaire on the Linkin Park website, and the computer LOST THE FOUR OF CLUBS! It literally is missing a card!

There is nowhere it could be hiding! The four of clubs is just not there!

This is so funny to me

“you don’t like the proliferation of terms like Unalive outside of TikTok because you realize that you’re aging out of youth culture and it makes you uncomfortable!”

no I don’t like it because there’s something INCREDIBLY dystopian about being forced to soften terms for basic parts of the human experience like death and sex (and even more so terms for oppressed minorities- call me a “le-dollar sign-bian” and I will bite you) purely because advertisers and corporations demand it

The everest chronicles

Gotta respect the Russian language for having cutesy diminutives that somehow take twice as long to say as the proper names they’re based on.
