Hole in one? I’ll put holes in as many as is legally allowed.

Can’t believe I live in world so stupid that 23 years later, and 36 years later, people still believe the US is invading west Asia because of nuclear threat instead of imperial capitalism.

Survived my own trial of 7 today when I slipped and stabbed the tip of a 7” phillips bit through the top of my hand. Do not recommend 0/10 experience.

University of Arkansas too.

Definitely a thing. University presses publish fiction, poetry, and CNF all the time. UK, UGA, and University of Pittsburgh all have great fiction work. I’m sure there are more.

Yeah, liberals align with the fascists to defend their capital interests.

If you all had that much power to make people answer for stuff you would have won the election.

Just found out I was accepted into an anthology for the writers workshop that made me the poet I am today. Sometimes it’s a good day on Al Gore’s internet.

Worried that I wouldn’t like kotsk but now I’m in the much worse position of loving it and having no more episodes.

a man wearing glasses and a green shirt with the 2df logo on the bottom Alt: David Foster Wallace shrugs as if to say β€œI told you this would happen,” he is wearing a faded, fatigue free shirt and wore glasses. Despite being correct, he finds zero joy in his precognition.

AI has always been ridiculous to me, but I don’t even like backup cameras on cars, or cars in general.

Why is it that a prince of the realm must be jailed so that a moldy orange nouveau riche might be spared?

One time entering Ireland I asked the customs agent where to find the local Bobby Sands memorial and he turned stark white, didn’t answer, then advised my fellow travelers to keep a close eye on me until we left the country.

When people ask me why I’m a communist and not an anarchist, I’m gonna show them this picture.

I'm convinced AI is our generation's radium - a discovery with genuinely useful applications in specific, controlled circumstances that we stupidly put in everything from kid's toys to toothpaste until we realised the harm far too late where future generations will ask if we were out of our minds.

SB ad spots are a fully fetishized commodity at this point. As always, the primary side effect is the disposal of creative energy.

Look man that Trump post was racist as hell but now my feed is full of Obamas lionization and I can’t stress enough the problems with ICE and an unaccountable reactionary right are inseparable from choices Obama made. Now is not the time to whitewash their role in all this

Check out the ossuary at Kutna Hora if you get a chance. Incredible.

It’s just a variant of escarole, itself a slang term for money. So, the money is in escrow = the money is in money, a bank’s way of saying β€œit is what it is”. Or something like that.

Littlefinger is a proto liberal capitalist, who, similar to today’s Democrats, wanted to prolong the Gramscian nightmare at the end of the Targaryen reign. In this essay I will

Reform + retrain = collaboration. The Dems want to collaborate with the white power party because they share organizing principles (capital).

If they won’t release the names of the goons who committed murder then I’m changing my stance on collective punishment.

She could have won except for that whole failure to condemn genocide routine. As a public servant it is she who owes us an apology for failing to win due to having no spine.

and must live or die as the world lives or dies. People who I’ve never experienced having a political view are speaking out, seeing the destruction of their communities (finally!). It is only a matter of time until the dam breaks and the flood can come to wash away this wretchedness. All that to say

in the form of Christo apocalypse. Like ents they don’t see how they’re affected, and actually have resigned themselves, even if not religious, to the idea of End Times. But it appears to me from here that perhaps the ents are waking up to their reality, that the are in fact a part of this world
