The contrast in tone between the quotes their digital marketing company gave when bragging to Billboard (“We know how to go viral. We have thousands of pages“) and the ones they give here downplaying their work is pretty telling
Before the Challenger exploded, engineers tried to tell their bosses that the o-ring that failed would do exactly that. Their bosses decided their NASA contract - aka the money - was more important than safety and gave the go ahead anyway.
I think about that a lot lately.
Top headlines: Tiger arrested on suspicion of DUI after crash. Sources: Sun sold, will relocate to Houston in '27
another banner day for "if you didn't know sports were real, ESPN headlines would be crazy"
"In America, we fetishize misery. We treat suffering like a virtue, and it’s not. We live in the wealthiest country in the world. We don’t have to live like this."
I don't know how and I don't know the mechanisms for doing so but Meta has to be destroyed. Not regulated but destroyed. Same with X obviously.
hear em out
Everything you want to know about AEW, the WrestleAunts know it. If you want to get caught up or become a new fan, watch the link on the thing and get it together.
more lore recaps in the future, please
 the healthiest thing you could do in the social media era is acknowledge that not everything is an argument to be rebutted, say no and keep that shit moving
[guy who sang baby beluga] the festering belly is splitting, each half digested soul fumbling for a knife
Folks he's saying this shit out loud and into camera you cannot be surprised when you finally realize what he is
NBC ran a piece where Mary Carrillo went to Norway to find out why they're so good at the Winter Olympics and i was yelling BECAUSE IT'S COLD THERE
then she went to a little tiny ski jump for kids and was like "it's free, equipment is provided, & they don't emphasize results"
and i was like.
oh!
if you played sonic the hedgehog and put down the controller, sonic would look at you and tap his foot impatiently. this was proof that sega genesis cartridges had souls. the decision was made to make the storage cases a lot larger than the cartridges so they would have room to move around in there
One of the things that makes rap such a great genre of music is that you learn and experience so much of the diaspora through it. For example, before I even came to understand New York, I learned so much about Puerto Ricans and Puerto Rican history and culture because they were part of rap culture.
Hundreds of millions spent on human misery
For anyone that saw the end of #AEW Dynamite last night and wants to know more about Brody King, this interview with regrettable @rjcity.bsky.social is a great introduction.

"rich dipshit owner doesn't understand the industry he's bought into and clumsily destroys what made it good" feels less like a narrative unique to the washington post and more like the music that's been playing in the background of all our lives for at least 40 years
This post is gone, but even more relevant now than ever
Bad Bunny condemns ICE during his #GRAMMYs speech for Best Música Urbana Album:
“Before I say thanks to god, I’m going to say, ICE out. We’re not savages, we’re not animals, we are humans and we are Americans.”
and a lawsuit
Grammy night was elite live posting camaraderie on socials. Now it’s all fractured and gone. I am detached from the community.
The Epstein Files continue to be a sports story.
ICE murdered Renée Good in broad daylight. Less than 3 weeks later, they killed Alex Pretti, shooting him 10 times. Every day, we watch as people are ripped from their cars, their homes, their lives.
We can't allow ourselves to look away from this cruelty. Abolish ICE.
Alex Pretti from his early days working at the VA
Alex from our time working together, while he was in nursing school. Later, he moved to ICU, working as a nurse to support critically ill Veterans. He had such a great attitude. We’d chat between patients about trying to get in a mountain bike ride together. Will never happen now
