I know it’s well documented that Pete Townshend doesn’t give a fuck about selling out, but it feels especially ridiculous to hear a song that’s supposedly about a deeply spiritual religious leader as the soundtrack to a Burger King commercial

“I should do a list” — guy accusing people of being dumb
I just want the Phillies to know that I turned off the game to watch SNL. So that’s where my standards are I guess
I wasn’t even that big of a Capn Crunch kid but I remember something about that figure of him being really.. satisfying? Like it was just really well made for what it was and exciting to receive for free??
I also hate my job but I don’t go on national tv to whine about it
The Flea jazz album is awesome, that’s all
“It’s not me, surely it’s the pope who is morally wrong” is next-level self unawareness
So far, Vance’s foreign policy record is yelling at Zelensky for not thanking Trump enough, campaigning for AfD in Germany and Orban in Hungary, getting rejected by the Pope on his invite to the US, and failing in the Iran negotiations.
Just watched Mickey 17. I don’t want to say I hated it but I pretty much hated it. Wow.
For some reason, Pink Floyd’s Atom Heart Mother is very springy to me. Maybe it’s because the long title suite is kinda dark and wintry but ends on a high note, then there are a bunch of shorter sunny songs and Alan’s Psych Breakfast also feels kinda transitiony to me and ends in an upbeat way
I joined some friends for a DnD night yesterday, never really had the opportunity to see it in person before. I expected to just hang out & chill for a bit but they added me & I got to be involved in the campaign. Really had a great time & was honored to be welcomed into such a fun shared experience
This is a great point. Either we take him seriously or we admit he’s crazy. Can’t be both.
This is an ok outcome for now, but this is no way to run a country. Or to function as a human. When children throw tantrums, they shouldn’t be rewarded
In other words, to clarify, I’m glad this happened. But I know it’s bs. And I know a war crimes tantrum is not how you get shit done. If my 3 yr old were to threaten the kid equivalent of war crimes, I send her to her room; I don’t give her what she wants.
I don’t want someone saying TACO to make him be like “Fine, I’ll do it anyway then!” I also don’t want anyone to say his genius diplomacy is what led to this. He’s an unhinged lunatic and this is no way to run a country
Absolutely. The best I can do is try to be a model for how good humans can be so at least her world is the best it can be. It’s just so hard. I was in college on 9/11; a prof came in the next day & talked about how terrified she was for the world her kid would have to live in. Still rings true
I agree with that. I can’t stand Trump’s nonstop lying but I hope to god he’s lying about this. I hope at 7:59pm he posts some dumb vague shit about how they agreed to everything he wanted and it’s entirely made up and nothing major changes but at least he doesn’t “kill an entire civilization”
I’m going to be getting my 3 yr old daughter ready for bed tonight at the 8pm deadline. I’m going to have to lie and pretend things are fine and she has nothing to worry about and can sleep soundly and happy. I don’t know what we’re doing
Morality and constitutionality aside, how do you propose “eliminating” Iran? We simply do not have the capacity to do this.
Republicans live in a fantasy world where you simply describe something and it manifests - a propaganda dreamscape that comes from mainlining Fox News and Twitter 24/7
Starting with “you’re all gonna die” and ending with “god bless these great people” really just says how divorced from reality his mind is. Flailing, desperate, no plan, no compassion. Someone needs to get his finger away from the trigger asap
I feel physically sick thinking about Trump’s endless lying, but I hope for the sake of all of us, he IS bluffing this time. I hope he’s making it all up. I hope he says at 7:59pm “they made a deal and agreed to everything” and it’s entirely made up but he at least doesn’t do a casual war crime
I don’t care about the circumstances at all. There is no situation in which anyone in the entire world is allowed to think he can kill a “whole civilization” and just get away with it and expect good people to support it. Get this asshole’s finger away from the trigger asap for the love of humanity
If this isn’t the bottom, there is no bottom.
This is an unbelievably unwell person and anyone who’s not admitting it and taking care of him should be ashamed.
To each his own, but I’ve never understood how anyone is able to watch Malcom in the Middle. Every person on that show has a ridiculous punchable face, except maybe Cranston, but they even managed to make him irritating somehow. It’s like watching a headache.
I saw them live in ~2003 and it was fantastic. I don’t consider myself a “fan” but the show was inarguably great, and their ability to write catchy rock songs that get stuck in your head is impressive. It’s not just one or two songs, either; I realized at the show I recognized like the whole set
I like the theory that it’s an April Fools joke a day late and missing the punchline. Even so, it’s about as dumb as it gets. Would love a pro comedian to do an analysis of everything he got wrong here in terms of trying to land a joke.
I’m very very glad Pam Bondi is out, but to all the pundits who will be analyzing it and trying to make sense of why it happened now instead of months ago.. you’re not gonna figure it out. The answer is, his mind is broken and violently random and he doesn’t take anything seriously
Wait, did he really just compare this to other wars to prove a point about wars while saying this still isn’t a war?
This shit is pathetic hahah
Two solid minutes of a horrible person being horribly racist
