"Yes this is better than writing a cover letter; I'm glad I had to type out all the information from my resume again" - statements dreamed up by the utterly deranged.

STOP DOING ONLINE JOB APPLICATION FORMS

YEARS of applying for jobs yet NO REAL-WORD USE FOUND for giving the exact date you left a job 8 years ago.

Wanted to ask people about a time they did a thing? We had a tool for that: It was called "job interviews"

It's very funny to me that if you go to Genius all the lyric annotations are like "well this is about a supersoldier being fed drugs by a dystopian government"

ok that's true on one level but also

"I let you put it in my mouth... I don't think I can last, yeah"

there is something else going on!

God this shit must hit like the discovery of gravity if you’re stupid

The conservative intelligentsia is just wildly, cartoonistly racist, and the fact that this gets less elite pushback from the prestige media/commentariat than "woke" does is such a damning indictment of our whole society.

Telegraph newspaper editorial on Mandelson's appointment in December 2024 versus editorial today

Joe Biden threw unprecedented amounts of money at police. More than TWICE what Obama gave them in the wake of the GFC.

Every major police union endorsed Donald Trump.

The fact that every major police union endorsed Donald Trump is under appreciated in our political discourse.

yeah i absolutely believe this

I will forgive the insane timing and 1930s implications if the movie cold opens with them Weekend at Bernie’s-ing Woodrow Wilson

Greg Lukianoff & @glukianoff - 4h How do vou stay nonpartisan in a culture that demands you to take sides? You pick a principle and refuse to bend it. At @TheFIREorg that means defending speech regardless of who says it. Not when it's easy. Not when it's popular. Always. (Image is a cartoon bus crashing into a wall that is cracking and there’s dust clouds everywhere. looks fucking fatal as all hell)

idk man if i was trying to make my org look good i don’t think the image i would use is a bus hurtling into a concrete wall. not sure that conveys the message you’re intending there bud

How is it 2026 and people are still able to use New York media institutions as their personal blogs. It seems like both of those categories - New York media institutions *and* personal blogs - should be finished at this point.

"argh ow oof ouch shit argh fuck dammit eek ack" - me trying to learn how to time my dodges and parries to match the different animations for Ethel Cain's scythe attacks

Ethel Cain live at Coachella with a big mic stand that is also a scythe. There’s a bunch of long grass on stage and the photo is almost monochrome.

Absolutely no way that wasn’t part of what she was going for

How many of those pale faceless writhing little dudes do you think she could take out with that scythe

also the fact that Heresy seems incredibly of the moment... not great!!!

Helps that the music was fantastic too.

Three days left for Democrats to demonstrate whether they oppose MAGA fascism or will continue to facilitate it while cosplaying and fundraising as the “anti-MAGA” party

Ethel Cain’s scythe mic stand and Nine Inch Noize’s whole “bdsm night in hell complete with army of lost souls” stage show really set new aesthetic peaks over the weekend.

Hey everybody! I am taking the helm of this classic American institution with @theonion.com and want to know what you fine folks would like to see from us.

oh! they got this all screwed up!

Ultimately of course I want Kash Patel's lawsuit to fail but it would certainly not be bad if lawyer fees ate up a good chunk of the money that The Atlantic has budgeted for paying terfs, war criminals, and Nazi apologists.

wait did you already do Doomsday Clock or is that coming?

The part of it that *could* have been interesting is that they had several heroic or anti-heroic characters join Fascist Cap's side willingly with little excuse, but of course the fallout from that was basically nil because who wants to think about Thor being a Nazi sympathizer?

i really wish "children are people and people are not property" was not a radical opinion but unfortunately it's the central question up for debate with much of politics

i luv da pitt. YEAH! #thepitt

cred: @/chickenparmaep on twt

it’s worth pointing out that this is the same media apparatus that elevated TERFs to destroy gender affirming care in the uk

I have largely ignored the new scam discourse.

Idk the details. Don't care to.

I think there are many real people who need help asking for it here and people exploiting that like it is across capitalism.

I find the hyperfixation on discrediting Palestinians here above all else gross though.

Went to AA to deal with my resentments but unfortunately met new people to be jealous of.
