I have single male friends that are 6 figure earners, in shape, eat healthy, and intelligent, and they are primarily looking to court foreign women as a whole because of their loyalty, traditionalism, and lack of entitlement.
This is the effect of how destructive our culture…
Seth Rogan and I are the same age.
He's chosen to live his life full of weed and child free.
I've chosen to live my life weed free and child full (5 w/another on the way)
Which way Western Man?
Breaking: Police just broke up and arrested all students at the University of Minnesota encampment for Gaza , charging them with trespassing and banning all students from campus for one year.
I don’t know why we need to keep acting like Andrew Callaghan is “on the left.” He just interviews people on the far right with no clear underlying ideological motive.
I found 100 people ages 1 thru 100 and trapped them in cubes. Then they competed in mental/physical challenges for $500,000 to see which age is the best :D
This website feels like what would happen if a bunch of tech bro fascists took over a beloved dive bar frequented by depressed left-leaning artists and writers.
Two school buses full of children were stuck on 110 freeway for over an hour, during a Wednesday morning roadway protest calling for a ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas war
Think I'm going to start making some non-corporate affiliated content soon. Want an excuse to get more philosophical and weirder than I can at my job.
I'll post some links soon for those who care to follow along.
words of encouragement for younger leftists:
It's hard to hold ethical and political stances at odds with dominant ideology and your friends and family. But 9 times out of 10, you'll be on the right side of history, and folks will scramble to retcon their bad takes.
The problem with Marxism is that a loud man on the internet told me it was bad when I was 12 years old and I remain committed to the cognitive abilities of a child.
Why can’t anyone just hang out? Why must every moment of existence be tied into consumption and/or production? Why do we want to sacrifice our organic humanity to data collection devices? Why can’t these bros just get stoned and watch a Peckinpah movie?
Hot Take: a good show or film can’t be spoiled. If something’s value is dependent on a big reveal or plot twist, then it’s just a gimmick and not good storytelling.
The same party that supports cutting entire college programs that deal with race, gender, and critical theory is now suddenly super concerned with antisemitism on campuses.
I did a series of interviews for a job with Mr Beast and was asked some of the weirdest questions by some of the rudest people I’ve ever met. This whole operation is . . . not good.
Yes. If you are mentally and physically healthy, taxpayers should not pay you to retire at 65. When Social Security was created, life expectancy was 64. Today, it's 78.
Also, people require purpose. If you can retire and find purpose, go for it. For many, that's a bad idea.
Posting this and thinking it makes voting for Biden more urgent is so funny.
She’s basically saying, “vote blue and the collapse of the climate will be slightly slower than the other option.”
did a video about how maybe making trans jokes isn't funny and a million incels showed up in the comments to say that actually trans jokes are very funny. great culture we have here.
People seem very upset by our new video. So I guess don’t watch it? Or do? I don’t know anymore. It’s on the possibility of right-wing comedy. Happy Friday.
Wisecrack went from making Rick and Morty philosophy videos to doing C-list Breadtube content because of this guy, real mystery why people might think Karl Marx’s ideology is gay and lame when these are the people supporting it
As ex-presidents become mediocre content producers, nice to remember that Jimmy Carter just dedicated himself to building houses for homeless folks and things of that nature.
Earlier this year, writers and actors went on strike to advocate for better working conditions and protections. It led to important changes that will transform the industry for the better.
Here are some films that reflect their hard work over the last year — including some like…
@TheOmniLiberal
Could do tomorrow, though have no interest in debating. But would be happy to chat political principles in an open way if that’s of interest. Genuinely curious about what motivates your interest and perspective on this stuff.
Have spent the last 6.5 years working for
@wisecrack
(first freelance and then full time) and can earnestly say it’s the best group of humans I’ve ever worked with. Hoping we last nine more years.
It’s our ninth birthday! Thanks for helping us get this old, which is increasingly uncommon in digital media.
To help us celebrate, share some of your favorite Wisecrack memories from the last nine years, and/or what you hope to see from us in the next nine!
JUST IN: U.S. House votes 234-188 to censure Rep. Rashida Tlaib over her remarks and actions in response to the Israel-Hamas war.
Several Democrats voted with Republicans in support of the measure.
gonna be fucked up in 6-9 months when we have to watch friends and family enthusiastically support a president who stood by as a fascist military took babies off ventilators.
"yeah, but Trump . . . " isn't an argument for supporting these atrocities and those who enable them.
@prageru
Yes, in the history of philosophy, a number of moral and ethical theorists have developed systems that provide clear ethical paradigms grounded in non-theological principles. Some of these systems were developed before the birth of Christ, and then were appropriated by the Church
A society without high level journalism and no cultural criticism and no film and music reviews and increasingly limited opportunities for artists to make a living is surely on the right track.
The IDF is killing babies but the American media is more concerned with university presidents answers to bad faith hypothetical questions.
We’ve completely lost the plot.
Might fuck around and write the most successful series of children’s books of all time and sell the film rights and make a billion dollars and then spend the rest of my life making everyone hate me because I don’t like peeing next to trans women.
I think most debates are dumb.
Having an open and curious conversation in good faith about important issues can be cool.
Writing down well thought-out and researched arguments about important issues is cool.
Dudes yelling at each other? not cool.
Watching Peterson and Destiny talk to prepare for tomorrow’s stream and it feels like someone opened the top of my skull and started using my brain as a toilet for a bus full of fifteen year olds with infectious diarrhea.
If you believe grape juice can become the blood of a guy that died 2000+ years ago and that a stale cracker can become his body then it shouldn’t be too hard to accept the existence of trans people.
Yassir Lester, who is writing ‘ARMOR WARS’ for Marvel Studios, said this on Instagram:
And again I say: it's not complicated, and it never was. It was never nuanced. The plan was always this, and creating a battle of semantics in how people addressed the situation was precisely…
Can’t wait to get assassinated by a 15 year old in a couple weeks for hosting a video that asks if a system that necessitates charity from the ultra wealthy is maybe not the best we can do.
At halftime the lights go out. Usher is gone.
From a private box Taylor Swift walks down steps made of air and stands at the 50 yard line. (She’s holding a cross with a hammer and sickle in the middle.)
She casts a spell that turns Joe Biden into a 35 year old (in Arabic.)
weird that so many millionaire and billionaire dudes are psychotically angry about everything. If I fleeced this dumb country with some bullshit job I would cash out, get a cabin in Minnesota and a bungalow in Key West, and just hang out watching movies and taking walks.
A show called The Good Philosopher where I hang out at bars and help strangers work through their problems by talking about Aristotle and Kierkegaard. Also I could get real sick and do a crossover episode where The Good Doctor saves my life and I tell him about Deleuze.
If I was a billionaire I’d buy a Super Bowl commercial that was a full minute of me asking questions like:
What are we all doing?
Does this really feel good?
Why are we excited about commercials?
What are we other than consumers?
What that mouth do?
Since having a baby I’ve read three different books on childhood cognitive development and neuroscience.
When my dad had me he just tried to not hug me too much so I wouldn’t be gay.
This weekend, American Jews are being told to stay inside, because - effectively - there are planned pogroms taking place (aka Free Palestine marches) and the police are aware they cannot protect innocent civilians from attack.
"This is America" etc.
wish Bourdain was alive to call Fetterman an "embarrassing mass of meat masquerading as a human" or "the scum you find in the drain of a dirty diner sink" or something way worse.
my most delusional take is that if I was single, I could date Margot Robbie.
My reasoning is that we once sat near each other at an improv show and laughed at many of the same things, and she's probably bored by conventionally attractive men.
watching J*rdan P*terson videos again for work research so expect increasingly unhinged posting on here as my brain gets infected by world historical idiocy.
Retirement is for cowards. I pray I work until the day I die, and when I arrive at the gates, I hope St. Peter greets me with a time card and a hard hat so I can work 80 hours a week at the blessings factory in Heaven.
We are LIVE! LIVE! LIVE! Join us as Michael (
@michaeloburns

We got a new DEI director at work. She held a big workshop over lunch today with all the white employees. She locked us in and said we could not leave until we picked two of whites to kill in an act of tribute. We’re still in here. Help.
(Lunch was turkey wraps and chips.)
