1.2M immigrants gone from US labor force under Trump, preliminary data shows
There should be a new Fantasia every 10 years, every 5 at first to help fill in the backlog since 1940.
AI cannot fail, it can only be sabotaged. You must stay ever-vigilant against Trotskyist wreckers.
Placing Trump's unresponsive body in the cockpit of a stealth bomber with a helmet on. "Highway to the Danger Zone" plays on a tinny speaker. An aide helps him do a thumbs-up.
Not even the scariest quote in the article.
Well hello there
Dumb games
You know what this is, someone trying to mentally prep a society to commit genocide.
It's a rare gift, to know where you need to be, before you've been to all the places you don't need to be.
The line delivery in Band of Brothers of "Hitler's dead" from the Office Space guy keeps rattling around in my head
every single one of us expending the vast sum of our collective energy hoping that beyond all realistic possibility we find out tomorrow trump is somehow secretly dead still amounts to a fraction of a fraction of a percentage of the amount that vance is praying for the same
of all the phrases in the English language, of all the combinations of words, this one is the most beautiful 🥹
My money's on a big press conference to weakly mumble about how he feels great, never better, while visibly drooling from one side of his mouth
hes fuckin dying fast and wanted to see his tribute vid before he goes lol
Now that The Toast is gone, it's very hard to find the text of the greatest piece ever produced, The Pitch Meeting for Wishbone imgur.com/gallery/pitc...
I keep staring at "Bone-petite," and ultimately I've decided that it's not a joke, because jokes are funny.
Real talk, though, this is what can happen when Europeans surrender their actual identities to partake in the social and political advantages of "whiteness." Their "heritage" becomes corporate logos.
this guy is their lodestar. tacky idiot making this ugly shit
A Labor Day reminder: today there isn't a single city, metro area, or state in the U.S. where a full-time minimum-wage worker can afford a modest 2-bedroom apartment. Millions of people with jobs—even multiple jobs—aren't safe from homelessness in this country.
"why is my favorite sitting table covered in very stupid books?"
Mu, shown here ruling from his Mountain of Power
Americans Astronomers watching watching US politics Betelgeuse 🤝 “It could happen at any time”
One place has a lot more implied violence, but the other one like, wow, really reads you for filth
Certain media types hate this place because, while they of course also get treated like shit on twitter, only like 1% of people on twitter even know who the fuck they are. But on here every single user knows them and despises them
X: STFU homo libtard Bluesky: STFU you John-Ashcroft-defending Straussian freak
a neglected/"replaced" skillset withers rapidly because your brain doesn't think you need it anymore! they made a turns-you-stupid machine and it doesn't even make good stuff! it's like if the monkey's paw didn't even grant you a wish it just punched you in head until you got worse at everything
the thing about AI is even if it were accurate and good at what it's claimed to be doing, we, like all organisms, are extremely lazy! the goal of every organism is to expend as little energy as possible in the propagation of itself. to that end, anything that we can offload, we get REALLY bad at!
When this particular fash slop goes around I'm always struck by how it's not just an idealized '80s/'90s childhood, but that of a really spoiled rich kid. Like this is the mental universe of the most uninteresting, coddled gentry dipshits everyone else hated.
Just basking once again in the wonder and glory of this one.
say what you will about those rascally Danes, they know their way around lacquered wood!!!
First, they came for the giant pieces of shit
MAGA got everything they wanted out of Cracker Barrel and they still want to punish the company anyway. Just about the most predictable outcome you could imagine.
Never forget, a 13-year study found that protected bike-lanes led to a drastic decline in fatalities for all road users. ALL ROAD USERS. And painted bike-lanes? No safety improvement at all. For sharrows, it’s actually safer to NOT have them. Via @usa.streetsblog.org @nyc.streetsblog.org
Who's the worst cartoon character? I vote Henry, the dad from Dennis the Menace. He's a mask deliberately invented to whitewash the identity of his creator, Hank Ketcham, one of the worst men to ever make comics. It's gonna take a thread.
Rudy Giuliani happened to be in the middle of one of his favorite pastimes - RESPECTING WOMEN - when he suddenly broke every single bone in his body. Please do not call and ask any questions because his business partner is taking care of him ❤️
Just incredibly fucking insulting that we all have to do this "Hmmm, the Emperor smiled when Deputy Chief of the Household Department Sima presented him with a new concubine, perhaps this means he favors the Eastern Faction's proposal for an invasion of Mongolia" shit.
Lest you say "it's not like that in the United States," I am currently representing a person facing criminal charges for - and this is true - saying "protect trans kids" during a school board meeting
at some point the résumé is more embarrassing than bolstering
Dish washer! Mechanic! Foot scrubber! Hamster pellet subproduction supervisor! Travel agent! Sales! Duties as assigned!
It feels like Mamdani is running for mayor against three competing Tim & Eric sketches
did mushrooms with Theseus and he's just been staring at his ship for like two hours
people on twitter call me gay for liking clothes, but honestly liking suits is the least gay thing about me

Riker was pure grade-A king and the world is all the better for it
One of my favorite Riker moments is when a sleazy business guy brags to him about dating Troi to get a leg up in negotiations and Riker looks him square in the eye and is like “buddy if you knew me at all you’d know I’m totally fine with my ex doing whatever makes her happy”
The meta-lesson of Star Trek is to extend a bit of grace to people's sexual expression, including in the fiction they write, because in thirty years fucking your grandmother's candle-ghost won't raise an eyebrow but getting tricked by a sexy hologram lady while the Bynars steal your ship will
yeah you basically need to hire a guy to live up there half the year to shovel the snow off the roof. Our guy was named Roy, I'm pretty sure. Got into some fights with the geese.
they would like nothing more, I'm afraid
told a 20 year old at my gym i went to see Jaws for the 50th anniversary and she was like "whoa! from the 70s? is that in black and white?"
get an old player piana to play the Jaws Interlude
yeah Frank LLoyd Wright had a number of...acolytes? who definitely designed some weird and only half-functional buildings (like my high school!)
last night, I seriously had a dream that some meal delivery subscription was offering prepackaged daily salads like this. A coworker told me they were actually pretty good. I was like, ok, I'm doing this, time to become a Salad Person. Gonna buy a wood bowl and big wooden tossing forks.
POV: You’re in the whimsical house with the secret rooms.
Today’s Millennial Product of Excellence is “the bags they put inside of bagged salad” Bag inside of bagged salad: maybe the salad went bad because I didn’t eat it, but I should save these and keep them in the refrigerator for the salad I will eat very soon
any time described as "evening" in New Hampshire is basically open season on senior, gape-mouthed drivers of any sobriety level. We gotta get up the hill, gramps, time to floor it.
Someone slamming into you in NH on those death wish two lane no light 55 mph “highways” is certainly plausible however.
They’re calling it the most believable story ever told
Yes after I had saved the orphans I went back to my car where I informed the cheering crowd that I was more legally sober than any man on earth, and drove away. That’s when the unfortunate event happened.
sharpen, sharpen, sharpen, and all will be well!
Him: And here's our foosball hall of mirrors with a minibar! Her: Great! I can rip out the dropped ceiling and hang my wolfsbane from the rafters!
Fascinated by the masculine urge to live in a house that's like if Pottery Barn designed an escape room, compared to the feminine urge to live in a one-room Russo-Finnish witch's hut on chicken legs
Nice! that's a nice long lawn-cutting blade! And I like the adjustable height on the handle!
"and in this room, no one can hear you scream" vibes. No thank you!
Him: "...it's a blockbuster video!" Her: Wow, that's incredible! So, like, what do you make in a year to afford all this? Or did you just cash in your stock at 42? No judgement! Just curious.
Getting food poisoning and having to run through the entire set of Nickelodeons Guts and solve a Scooby Doo mystery with a living talking dog before you can use a toilet
I mean, there are a whole lot of vaudeville-ass shenanigans in the original Star Wars trilogy. So many "busters" and "sisters" and "worshipfulnesses." I think it's part of the charm. It almost has to be.
Once Trump's "vice vessel" is topped off and buried, he'll finally start taking damage to his own health bar.
(brunette in a chintzy polyester robe does a sarcastic bow to the camera) This guy: uh in Japan this is a sign of respect Me: She clearly isn't Japanese, and this is some racist dogshit. This guy: wow guess you can't take a joke!
i work at the factory that makes resealable snack pouches making sure the “tear here” label is too high above the ziploc thing when you rip it off. every day i leave work i get shot at in the parking lot by a half dozen guys wearing shirts tucked into jean shorts
Is R2-D2's wolf whistle canonically of the Star Wars universe or is it only in the Meco version? Because if the former it might lead to interesting speculation on how that sound made its way across galaxies and aeons to land on Earth.

also wtf we have Air BnB for car rentals now? That does not sound cool or safe, and I wouldn't be surprised if this kind of thing happens constantly in rented cars. Hertz can absorb the loss, but regular folks can't.
Driving while texting is even more dangerous than driving while drunk, and there is absolutely no excuse. This should be an immediate license suspension and mandatory safety courses.
she's clearly (if occasionally 🙃) grabbing the steering wheel in front of her and the center line is visible out of her side window. So either she's in a left-side-drive country or the video is reversed.
here’s a version where the POV is blacked out whenever the driver takes their eyes off the road
incredible. And I can only imagine the gnarly burns the green-onion-chucker gets on his forearms.
not the first person to make this observation but its rules that the "i wont let my body temple be defiled by putting seed oils or processed food in it" people and the "let me go behind the gym to inject these steroids i bought from a guy i met here" people have merged into the same group.
Me, when a recipe says "one clove of garlic"
right? just make a big pot of soup for a family of giants. US would absolutely just have ingredients in hoppers with ramps and chutes and conveyor belts, little to no human contact. They would not be hupping big bowls of peeled onions into the giant wok.
I'm honestly floored. How do we mass produce a flavorful soup? Well, we get a really, really big pot, and some really big bowls of ingredients, and then we huck in the bowls of ingredients at the right times. A robot helps us stir because the pot is very large.
This is so healing. Bless the spicy hot pot soup base
going back to the founders it would have been recognized as an act of gratitude and patriotism to dedicate one's life to service of their adopted country, but Vance rejects the fundamental ideal of America in favor of crude blood-and-soil Nazism that he learned on the internet five years ago
Going mute and lethargic, publicly, for days before being assumed bodily into Hell would be a fitting end. Might need to soil himself a few times and drool a bit to make it really special, but beggars can't be choosers.
You'd think, logically, the White House would know these extreme telephoto Bigfoot sighting photos aren't exactly helping their "not dying" cause and would let him trot out and do his usual blather to the pool. But, I'm not sure that you can really draw a firm conclusion from this team being dumb.
out on the town having the time of my life with president trump. he's just out of frame, very much alive
today's random theater photo: Herschel Rosen, Miriam Kressyn, Joanna Peled, and Zvee Scooler in The Dybbuk (early 1980s)
Taylor Lorenz on Monday: Nazis are really nice to me Taylor Lorenz on Saturday: yeah so the Jews are gonna shut down the internet- i read it on 4chan
Not sure whose fault it is primarily that most people don't seem to know that the president is basically a manager whose job is to carry out the will of Congress, and not The Country's Boss
Congestion pricing is actually the perfect example here. Trump declared that “congestion pricing is dead” (and that he is the king) Hochul and the MTA told him to fuck off, and now, more than 6 months later, congestion pricing is still alive and working exactly as planned
bring back the Wicker Man Corn Flakes
Gonna dopple the fingle any day now
MEANWHILE Oslow: Incredible. The things they get up to in Serbia or thereabouts. Vourdalak rising from their graves to feast on the living. Daisy: You should stop watching Open University before bed. Oslow: They feed on those who loved them in life. Your Hyacinth would have nothing to worry about
Hyacinth: The Bouquet residence, the lady of the house speaking. Oh, it’s you, Violet! Yes, the Count is coming to the candlelight supper. Yes, Romanian. Count of what? I don’t know, dear, something Romanian, Dragula or Draculo or something. Richard: We don’t know anything about him!
reading about culture before the 90s and it's like "there were like twelve parties a year, everyone went to them and 80% of art and music was just based around that"
Imagine living in this wonderland
