Really proud of this project Liam and I worked on

It allows them to not do the much harder work of introspection and changing aspects of their personalities. It’s strictly a body issue, and they could change that at any time if they decide to invest the time. Lastly men in healthy relationships won’t see that content until the poll is over. 3/3

that every woman on earth will find you more attractive. But if it doesn’t, and will even make some less attracted to you then it’s not and you’ve wasted thousands of dollars. Second, the single men without this physique tell themselves that that’s the reason they’re single and undesirable. (2/x)

I think the reason men get upset about this is two-fold. First, the men that have a shredded physique are spending hundreds of dollars on drugs and hundreds of hours in the gym and kitchen to attain it. They’re also risking organ damage and a shorter life span. That feels worth it if it means (1/x)

I’ve always assumed anything below 1 on these rankings is made up to promote shows

An AI photo of a family at a baseball game

Not shocking but still a little surprising @ticketmaster.com couldn’t be bothered to find a real photo to advertise the Cubs in Chicago

What a summary of the anti-trans movement:

March 23rd: female fencer competes in mixed-gender event, beating several male competitors, finishing 8th

March 30th: same fencer films herself telling trans competitor “I am refusing to fence you, because I am a woman and you are a man,” collects $5000

Sometimes I think about how many monopolies exist that legislators wouldn’t touch even if they wanted to because they’re industry specific.
Specifically thinking of Autodesk and Adobe for the work I do, but I’m sure there are dozens I don’t know about

my hope is that AI can empower the Dumbest, Least talented slobs i know to replace everything i ever loved with One Million Years of Content

Just saw a millennial gray gas station this recession is going to be brutal

Decided to do my taxes today since I knew I had baseball to look forward to when I finished and :(

Far from the most important news but @mlb.com’s $150 streaming service not working on opening day is a level of enshittification I didn’t see coming

well we also fired all the local beat journalists who used to report on shit like this and replaced them with mister beast and Candace owens

VCU got hosed on the seeding

Shirley doesn’t like the vaccine but does it to protect her kids.
Dean is vaxxed but every time it’s brought up he uses it as an excuse to mention he’s on PrEP.
Chang is surprisingly very pro vaccine.
Duncan gets it because it’s free.

My breakdown of the community cast:
Troy, Abed, Annie are vaxxed.
Pierce is the first person vaxxed in the city and gets 5 vaccines in the first month they’re available
Britta is a classic anti vax hippie. Jeff is too selfish and obsessed with bodily purity, also thinks it’s fine if people die.

Post a fictional character who you think would be an antivaxxer. (Both of them)

Incredible basketball game to start this tournament

Well there was one that went through earlier, but it was basket interference

They also successfully gutted local newspapers with private equity firms and at the same time showed they can litigate independent news sites to death if they make a misstep.
I think the clear cutting before the sowing gets overlooked sometimes

I am positive that if you had asked to take a photo he would have said yes

Eating alone at a hotel bar. Overhear the man next to me say that he first tried Zyns because he was annoyed by his children, but now he uses it to “lock in” on the golf course
