A horse eyeing a cake that says "Happy 30th Birthday." It is covered in M&Ms, and has a single carrot in the top, in lieu of a candle.

A horse eyeing a white-frosted cake, covered with rainbow sprinkles in the shape of the number 31. There is a carrot in lieu of a candle.

A brown horse, eating a slice of cake on a plate, being held in a hand.

A brown horse, visibly happy, his lips covered in white frosting.

Since people seem to be extremely into the horse-cake photo...here are his 30th and 31st birthday cakes, and a before-and-after of him eating a slice. There was always singing and sometimes balloons. He died just short of his 34th birthday, a good, long life for a horse.

Give the horse cake!

I'm so happy to have photographic evidence that this horse thoroughly enjoyed his birthday cakes. It's like we have satisfying answers to that Onion column:

1) yes, the horse got to try cake
2) the horse liked the cake
3) the horse's person gave him a good, long life that sometimes included cake

this is super cool and i hope that the artists were paid well for this work

three competing arguments against suicide from scifi video games:

Death Stranding - what if people cared about you

Pragmata - what if you had a daughter

Marathon - what if you wanted other people to suffer more than you hated being alive

TheCyberSmith tweeting out: "Human Pet Guy" All my wisdom, all of my intelligence, all of my genius insight is forgotten. You do not consider the hours I spent debunking veganism on Tumblr. You do not consider the fiction I wrote for Deviantart. You do not consider the essays I submitted to Reddit.

this is the funniest shit i've seen all year ngl

-9/11 attacks were either planned or intentionally allowed to happen

-the cia helped create (+ organize crime syndicates to sell) crack to poor/working class black folks in the 1980s, so as to fund its contras operation and continued to do a version of this with opium poppies/opiates & afghanistan

For those of you who withheld your vote from Kamala Harris, is Palestine now free under Trump?

How to tell the person that’s posting in April of 2026 is not a serious person

A system where the only viable choices support genocide *clearly* has massive problems that began way before that fucking ballot!

People who call the genocide of Palestine a "single issue" are co-conspirators with genocide. Genocide is never just a "single issue". It is everything. It touches every political, economic, social, and moral issue. If you reduce genocide down to a "single issue" then YOU are the problem.

The Onion plans to turn Infowars into a comedy site with satirical echoes of the fringe conspiracy theories that Mr. Jones is known for. Tim Heidecker, one of the comedians behind “Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job!” on Cartoon Network’s Adult Swim, has been hired to serve as “creative director of Infowars.” He said he initially plans to parody Mr. Jones’s “whole modus operandi.” Mr. Heidecker has been working on his impression of Mr. Jones. But eventually, when that joke gets old, Mr. Heidecker said that he hoped to turn Infowars into a destination for independent and experimental comedy. “I just thought it would be just a beautiful joke if we could take this pretty toxic, negative, destructive force of Infowars and rebrand it as this beautiful place for our creativity,” Mr. Heidecker said in an interview. During a recent trip to Philadelphia, he traveled to the Liberty Bell to film a video in character as the new creative director of Infowars.

Get excited.

Gil Duran tweet: TLDR: Fascism in response to Palantir's long fascists screed on X.

"Your Account is Suspended" Message on X

The CEO of Palantir posted a fascist manifesto on X.

I pointed out that it was fascist—which resulted in a permanent suspension from X (my second time!).

So, when you hear the tweeters complaining that BlueSky is intolerant, remember why many of us came here in the first place.

Reminding me of a trip to Arkansas to visit family as a kid, stopping to get gas with the sunroof open, and me getting eaten alive by a swarm of mosquitoes while the rest of the family didn't get a nibble.

Share this with your friends who use ChatGPT to answer questions (and are fucking stupid and dumb)

I think America's response to Covid, Trump voters being distrustful and fearful of everything around them, and people consuming mass amounts of true crime are all related

For Americans, burger disinformation is the scariest type of disinformation

My dear I just wanted to say to you that I admire the posts you make and you are the ultimate “lady” entertainer. It doesn’t hurt also that you are easy on the eyes if I might say this.

The Brains of the Firm; or a lack thereof? Requisite variety in the data. Monoculture in the civilization. A point-for-point reply to Palantir's 22-point manifesto.

Alright. You don't even have to go digging through 22 skeets to get my full rebuttal to Palantir & Alex Karp's demented manifesto.

You can just read it on an old fashioned webbed page.

Can the government dictate admissions policies of private colleges who take government money?

Conservatives: Yes! Kill Affirmative Action!

Conservatives: No! We love discrimination!

Obama shouldn’t be able to show his face in public without fear of being rightfully harassed for what he’s done. He doesn’t need attention and friendliness from the supposed left. This applies to any living president.
