Such an odd thing to read in the newspaper www.nytimes.com/2025/09/03/u...

Pentagon officials were still working Wednesday on what legal authority they would tell the public was used to back up the extraordinary strike in international waters.

to refuse all butt rock, to eschew all decidedly uncool things is, perhaps paradoxically, about as uncool as you can get

i've spent some time thinking about Alien: Earth and its use of butt rock and i felt compelled to work on a theory

a hand-drafted butt rock graph on a pink post-it, proving conclusively that butt rock is cool but only if you listen to it sometimes, and also if it's used as a hilarious needle drop on Alien: Earth
