I see people online being like “god I’m in my 30s my life is over I wasted my youth” like bitch stop following teen influencer insta accounts and live your life
How the media portrays anarchists: Okay guys let’s smash some shit!
Actual anarchists: Okay so it’s been 8 hours but we finally reached consensus on the use of the word “guys” in meetings
My most insane current belief is that shift in the millennial narrative to “they’re old and hate/fear zoomers” is 100% an op to push us towards identifying with power structures and tradition
I'm still recovering from getting dumped by someone I thought I was going to marry, I'm unemployed, I'm utterly disgusted with my body, and I feel like I will never create anything of lasting value. Maybe I'll start reading One Piece
Men writing fanfic: John was attending Sex University, where all of the students and teachers are horny for sex
Women writing fanfic: At Sex University, sex is strictly forbidden. Here is the complete administrative structure of the school
Imagine, just for the sake of argument, as I'm pacing the pews in a church corridor, hypothetically, and let’s say I can't help but to hear, no, I simply cannot help but to hear an exchanging of words
Whoa there friendo! You're fantasizing about inflicting violence on the people systematically stripping away your rights? That's a little much for this heckin pupper. Also I freaking love science
I love when someone is trying to own the libs and it becomes evident that they stopped paying attention to culture in 2007. Like they're going on about skinny jeans and Starbucks, sir it's 2022 young men are wearing straight cut jeans and drinking vtuber urine
Devs getting mad that people like Elden Ring "despite" it not following any of their rules for design which are essentially marketing dictates from American publishers
I'm working on an unbiased article on dogs for the New York Times. I'm not looking to speak to dog owners or veterinarians at this time but if you hate dogs and think dogs are controlling your mind and that they should all be launched into the sun I would like to hear from you
You can say gender neutral or have many sexual orientation. But you are buried, in 100 years when archelogolist dig you up, he is going to say "jesus christ a fucking skellington"
“My tenants aren’t paying rent and it’s my only source of income!” Damn that seems like something you should have thought about before you decided to become a human parasite

@elonmusk
I hope you are surrounded by massive security and in an extremely safe undisclosed location - you just became public enemy number one to some very very bad people, I pray for your safety and thank you for your bravery! We need more
@elonmusk
in our society!!!
Was waiting for my number to be called at the DMV and this employee came up to me, I figured because I was in the wrong area or something but she was like "hey so I don't know if you swing that way but my friend up there thinks you're really cute." Anyway I'm getting married
unpopular opinion, but all work is valid work. hitman, child poisoner, guy who sells contraptions to wile coyote. when we live in a world where you need money in order to literally survive, all work is valid work. it’s ridiculous to judge people on what they had to do to survive.
Insane that the CEO of Reddit is singlehandedly destroying the site in pursuit of short-term gain. The internet is basically getting burned down for immediate profits and in a few years there's going to be nothing good about it left
Realizing there are people getting sucked into NFTs who weren’t alive for the period of time when everyone was mass-buying comic books because they were convinced they’d be worth thousands in the future
everyone talks about the bizarre sex stuff in the later dune books and the big worm but i really hope they get to the point in the series where it's revealed that orthodox judaism has survived all that weird shit totally unchanged
Doctor Disrespect is leading a charge to uninstall COD because Activision removed a streamer's in-game skin for homophobic comments. Damn, he must really care about children and public safety. Hey on an unrelated note remember this
Feels like a very real possibility that the internet as we've known it for the last 15 years ceases to be soon. Google's useless, centralized social media is collapsing, VCs are shutting everything down. We're all going to go back to little enclaves and maybe that's good
Scott Bixby — the guy who wrote that article about a Bernie staffer having a private Twitter account — has a trust fund and lives in a million dollar apartment, in case you were wondering why he might be interested in doing this kind of thing in the guise of journalism

Doctor: Great job, you've been born. You're a natural. Now, press [A] repeatedly to cry. Right, just like that. As a baby, crying is one of your most useful abilities
Dude I'm so excited to live through a time when AI means nobody wants to pay for most jobs but we still think you need to work to be allowed to eat and have a place to live. It's going to be just like Star Trek (the part before the show starts when everything fucking sucks)
I thought I knew what fear was but then I encountered a couple on Tinder who were, in their own words, “looking to boink left-leaning cuties who are into mindbending films"
Insanely funny to me that people my age are now getting upset at younger people getting into Y2K aesthetics without having lived through the era. That's how this works. That's how this has always worked
Comedians in interviews: I bleieve, that I am a kind of sacred jester whose task is to push the boundarise of society
Comedians on stage: Girls pee out of the butt
my therapist: people with emotional regulation issues actually feel positive emotions more deeply also
me: that’s bullshit
[later, staring at a picture of kirby on my phone] i love the funny boy. i would die for the pink orb
Reminder that even if everybody changed their consumption patterns tomorrow corporations would keep producing 70% of emissions because supply and demand are completely unrelated concepts
My advice for young queer creators is do not try to create content for your “community,” because you will be setting yourself up to be pigeonholed and torn apart by people who feel you owe them something. Make the work you feel is important and you will form real community
And just like that. The music industry is forever changed.
I recorded a verse, and had a trained AI model of Kanye replace my vocals.
The results will blow your mind. Utterly incredible.
I've applied for hundreds of jobs over the last year. Many listings are fake for various reasons. Employers know they can pay peanuts because people are desperate. Online applications get filtered out by AI. It is literally a hopeless situation
We need a separate internet for people under 25 and a separate internet for people who love Marvel movies and a separate internet for people who want to fuck anthropomorphic bicycles. Bring back forums, basically
Imagining a world where disillusioned teens imprinted on American cartoons instead of anime. A legion of Woody Woodpecker avatars, big white gloves in every selfie, bios affirming that they’re wascally wabbits
Do you ever feel like you were born missing the crucial spark that makes a person a person and have thus spent your whole life trying to act human by fulfilling other people’s ideas of how a person should be. That seems like it would be bad
