We talk a lot of shit about anime characters not looking their age for a media culture that routinely casts thirty-five-year-old actors to play high schoolers.

I watched the only episode of degrassi I've ever seen in a bar and it took me most of the episode to figure out those were supposed to be teenagers. A character asked another character why he wasn't in uniform and I had to work out the puzzle of why this thirty year old man was expected to wear a uniform.

Do you ever read Thomas Pynchon? His dense prose mixed with his playful recreations of the language of the periods he writes in seems like something you'd appreciate

I tried to read gravitys rainbow and quickly realized I did not have the time and attention this book assumed I had. Seemed excellent though.

One time a person whose literature takes I respect mistook some of my writing for a passage from pynchon and let me tell you I rode that high for months.

i genuinely think boats are such good places to set a story because it automatically gives you a set of really interesting circumstances -- boats are transitory, you are not meant to stay on them forever, there is an automatic assumption of ending up somewhere different from where you started...characters are forced into close proximity, stakes are higher, etc. boats also just look cool, so that's always a plus

i feel that existences causes harm, everyone who exists causes harm and the best we can do is minimize it.

you can only exist if someone got pregnant and that's a very unpleasant experience.

everywhere you go you shed skin and hair that must be cleaned up by someone and that's an unpleasant experience.

Lots of people like being pregnant and having that feeling. And there are whole ecosystems of bugs and bacteria that LOVE cleaning up your skin and hair.

For every unpleasant there is likely a pleasant. Swings and roundabouts.

yeah i am being melodramatic about losing my ex's boxers when doing his laundry.

There shall be no forgiveness for such a sin. To hell with you.

context: the heritage foundation is trying to launder data in support of doge by sending a survey to only their supporters and using blatantly leading questions. the survey takes less than 5 minutes and they don't verify your email

you CAN do it multiple times if you so wish

Oh good we broke the first one. New link is here, same story.

Cannot even make this shit up

Just did this, took 2 min!!

my infamously data skewing followers rise up!

My followers urge to scew poll results knows no bounds

Looked at this and knew what was needed, do your part, fuck the DOGE, fuck the heritage foundation

singing house of the rising sun at the pub last night and when the song ended the musicians just kept playing while people ad-libbed more verses about various pubs they knew

(with ominous hurdy-gurdy accompaniment): "there is a pub in walthamstow, it's called the fox and mole, but we don't go there (long pause) any more. Because the manager is an arsehole."

For those of you that may have just finished watching Cory Booker’s record-breaking senate speech and are inspired to “get in good trouble”, you have a great opportunity for it this Saturday!

On April 5th, numerous advocacy groups are banding together into one nation-wide rally that will be held in major cities all over the country - you can easily find a participating location here!

I’ll be volunteering as a safety captain at my own local rally, and I encourage all of you to go out there too and get in some good trouble as well!

for the record when I say a lot of major cities I mean a LOT of major cities :P

Hey if you own a business I need you to repeat after me:

  • I will not let my web developer manage my domain registration.
  • My domains are my responsibility and they cannot be handed to a contractor.
  • If I do not control my domains, I do not control my website.
  • If my domain is paid for on somebody else's credit card, it isn't really mine.
  • I will read every contract carefully and abide by its terms.
  • If the terms of a contract are not agreeable to me, I will amend them until the contractor and I both agree to and are aware of the terms.
  • I will pay my contractors in a timely fashion.
  • I will not burn bridges with my contractors.
  • I will pay for domain registration myself, and will never grant anyone else complete control over my domain.
