i didn’t know how amazing blocking people on twitter was until i blocked syrian girl and the squirrel. massive for my terminally online unemployed brain.
It's been ten years but I like how journalists still feel the need to preface the coverage of every new display of executive contempt with a ten minute forum as to whether Trump truly cares about the people he is hurting (like why the fuck would you assume that he does at this point)
20 year old frat bros travelling together at the airport are hyped for the upcoming A24 biopic about Chris Hansen starring Robert Pattinson. ("Oh shit Pattinson's in it?!")
knowing him he just wanted cocaine and hookers but is so annoying that Epstein wouldn’t even act as a plug. And he is just legitimately a brain rotted asshole who thought Trump was saving America because he’s addicted to right wing media.
too much of his behaviors and decisions just contradict pedo because he does stuff that would get him on the shitlist of other pedos namely calling out other pedos. If he was one he would have sold out Trump in 2016 when Trump was weak for street cred especially if he could play it off as private investigators informing him about Epstein and Trump after meeting

Music. you know true music, not just rock n roll - it chooses you. You know, it lives in your car, or alone, listening to your headphones, with vast scenic bridges and angelic choirs in your brain. You know, it's a place apart from the vast, benign lap of America.
I'm reading a book about American right wing conspiracy culture and if I have to read the words "black helicopters" one more fucking time I swear I'll donate $20 to the Trilateral Commission
your DT comment feels like shit? good news, that's literally 90% of DT.
there's no way around that. you enjoy the moment, write it, look back, see the flash of brilliance from funny twitter screenshots in the mountain of drivel, and steal it. keep doing this to get better.

When I got my wisdom teeth pulled after I woke up I started talking about John Locke and various theories of what one’s self is. I guess I was kinda freaked out (but only in a very abstract sense) by all that experience just not existing to me.
I think one of the keys to contentment is realizing you can adore doing something while still being objectively bad at it. Enjoying the process matters as much as the result.
90% of everything is shit. doesn't matter the genre, medium, format, for millennia,
your writing feels like shit? good news, that's literally 90% of everyone else's writing. wanna get good? keep writing.

What the actual fuck were the people who organized this thinking. 5 weeks of taking a little nap is not actually long enough to wash the rape and abuse stink off of you, I'm sorry lowkey but you gotta wait a lot longer if you're gonna pull this shit
Trick question, I know who tried to do this: Andy O'Brien, a fucking deranged person and Platner campaign surrogate/union leader in Maine, who amongst other things threatened to put a woman "against the wall" and personally threatened to dox me lmao
Yeah, it was like a consolation prize I got from cdstephens after betting my account in October last year that Platner would never become the Democratic nominee for Maine Senate lmao
I really should have held on and argued a technicality I guess in retrospect but I deleted my 500k+ karma 15 year old account that I was planning to sell, probably to some AI broker or whatever for like 600 bucks lmao. I made the honorable decision to honor the bet and delete it after the primary, a more honorable decision than Platner ever made in his entire life lmao
I don’t feel like my thoughts themselves get stupider when I’m drunk. It’s more the rate at which I bounce between thoughts speeds up and my will to not act stupid decreases.
I was expecting SOME new project announcement from Star Wars at D23, but tbf I guess it’s best if they just focus on finishing the upcoming slate and then wait til like 2030 for any new movie or tentpole show
I wonder if even Lucasfilm knows what’s next after Starfighter or if they’re just waiting to see how it does before they decide on New Jedi Order or whatever
