The other day a student asked me about the prevalence of insider trading in prediction markets. I now have an answer.

Meme image showing the various stages of enjoying the character of Kazuhira Miller from metal gear solid } haha funny burger man } did he just have homosexual sex on screen??? } He is genuinely the most depressing character in the entire mgs franchise. Born an allen to two worlds, being ostracized Japan but not fitting in the American lifestyle in the states and losing his parents and only connections to his home countries, he finds himself building a world with snake above all nations, a home for those without one, only for this home and all of his soldiers, who he considered family, to be killed and destroyed in front of him with nothing he could do but watch. Ten years he tried to build the dream back from scratch promising revenge and to get back everything he and snake built, only to realize he's been played by snake the whole time, the man he revered as legend, and it sends him into a bitter spiral for the rest of the series. The dissonance between the two versions you see of him is jarring, one happy and always making jokes in your ear vs an angry man only focused on revenge and the ghosts of the soldiers he's lost, it's just so sad to watch. This is on top of the fact that you know from the first game in the solid franchise that he is destined to die alone in the cold with none of his dreams fulfilled and the one to pull the trigger is an elderly Russian man dressed like a cowboy from the Wild West.

I think about this post by tumblr user kiran a normal amount. Truly how it is to be a Kaz enjoyer (alt text if you can't read from the image)

South Korean protest culture is one of the country's huge strengths and it relies in part upon having large networks of people who can be mobilized at short notice. The U.S. is at nowhere near this stage of organization but it badly needs to be.

just discovered that Ben Platt is married to the *second* person to play the role of Evan Hansen on Broadway, and I feel that this is somehow incest and should require a Papal dispensation.

Each alleged mass shooter is even more On the Computer All the Time than the previous one. Probably nothing to worry about there

with everything going on last night I almost forgot to put out chick-fil-a and freedom fries for Never Forget Ned

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but it is totally appropriate to ask this question.

In fact, it’s deeply inappropriate not to ask.

This isn’t even the first example of political violence this year: Minnesota’s house speaker was shot and killed just three months ago, as was her husband. One of her colleagues was critically wounded. What was their rhetoric then?

I don't feel any particular joy in Charlie Kirk getting shot. It's not the sort of thing I celebrate.

But I also struggle to care when someone gets the very thing they've wished for openly, on multiple occasions, in multiple iterations, for literal years, b/c they thought it would be someone else.

Have been tagged in to provide the reminder about traumatic video because of the Charlie Kirk shooting video going around!

1. Settings -> Content & Media, turn off "autoplay video"
2. Keep your device sound off while browsing so an accidental activation won't include the sound

I would like to take this opportunity to remember the children killed at church in Minnesota and the children killed at Uvalde.

peak narrative to write the thrall of the god of murder into being a daddy’s girl who has a massive crash out with a skill check

One of the things that shocked me getting older is how common this is and how few men are willing to do anything about it. I’ll be talking to one of my girl space friends and she’ll be like “yeah i was basically fighting off an attack on my own competence by 3 unprepared idiots and nobody said boo”

Old Soviet joke for today:

A man walks into a newsstand every day, looks around, and leaves.

After a long time of this, the owner says “Can I help you find something?”

“I’m looking for the obituaries.”

“The obituaries are in the back of the newspaper, comrade.”

“Not the one I’m looking for.”

Inside of you are two tacos.
