Don’t ever use my art to defend some twitter-addicted lit scold who built their brand calling out books for Causing Harm while working at Lockheed Martin.
There's an old saying in Sietch Tabr — I know it's in Jacurutu, probably in Sietch Tabr—that says, may thy knife chip—shatter on you... If thy knife chips it won't get chipped again.
I absolutely love the end credits of Predator (1987) where they do a roll call of the cast and everyone who died shows up smiling and having a nice time.
It's time to make a deal with the man. Offer Trump four Netflix stand-up specials in exchange for remaining off the ballot in Michigan and Pennsylvania.
If I was a secret society billionaire who controlled a Supreme Court Justice I would simply not allow my house guests to photograph my extensive collection of Nazi memorabilia.
Cops in most towns are staffed by local losers and wife beaters. Any shine these pant pissing cowards have is stolen valor from our collective memory of movies.
Onlookers urged police to charge into the Texas grade school where a gunman killed 19 children and two teachers, a witness says. The rampage lasted upwards of 40 minutes, ending when the 18-year-old shooter was killed by a Border Patrol team.
Tunnels are having a much-deserved moment. There are vast networks yet to be reported, there is the copycat effect—many men breaking ground only this morning. We could be in a tunnel renaissance.
Vine will always be peak internet creativity. The six second constraint was key in preventing users from doing influencer behavior, callout drama, ADHD diagnosis, and conspiracies. None of that shit fits in six seconds aka the fun zone.
Just saw the Chris Rock clip. We are now perfectly teed up for a cataclysmic wife guy/comedy/cancel culture/race discourse. May god have mercy on our souls.
Since 2019 I’ve been in an expensive, stressful legal battle to protect Webcomic Name (my “oh no” comics). It’s a relief to finally talk about this publicly! I’m launching a crowdfunder to pay my
remaining legal fees to end this. 1/8
Has a single cop from this town resigned? Societies created exile and ritual suicide to deal with this level of shame and betrayal. These guys get to stay and pull over the parents of the kids they let die to hand them speeding tickets.
Let's review: Democrats sang god bless America, read you a poem, and posted pics of themselves doing yoga poses. Staggeringly ineffectual party that acts not only as if they are out of power, but as if power is a concept they have never come across in their fundraising journey.
Having a toddler you rediscover fart and poop humor. Nothing on earth is funnier. The first person ever ripped one and laughed at the raw truth: our butts fart and stink and poop comes out. We understood this before we understood time.
"There has never been a leak of a vote, much less an actual opinion, much less in a case of this significance,"
@JeffreyToobin
says. He calls it a "shattering experience for the justices" and says "I really don't know how the institution is going to recover."
This is a random thing I tweeted once without a second thought and I now encounter it regularly as a cropped screenshot on clout chasing accounts—it was even served to me as an ad for some pop culture sites Facebook page.
I’m afraid I have some bad news. After ten years of publishing, The Nib is going to close down this summer. Thank you for reading all these years. It's been an honor.
I'm enjoying the manners freakout because Fetterman dresses no different from a rich tech founder who is carried to his table on a palanquin to be fed Michelin star ortolan foam.

It is truly fascinating see this outpouring of people confessing to work in the most morally dubious places on planet earth from those who have developed an intensely moralistic, utterly black and white standard for existing online.
How thrilled would Duchamp be knowing that 100 years later people would still be so pissed about this piece they were enlisting themselves into an arts education in an attempt to win an argument about it?
Why do you need to learn about real art?
So that if someone tells you this is art you can humiliate them in every forum necessary and ensure people are embarrassed to put this in a gallery or teach about it in a school.
So long as leftists control art, they control the culture

A reminder that the shoplifter dog comic encouraged shoplifting from specifically a family owned business that's highly recommended by most artists and not, like, Wal-Mart.
This ain’t instagram. Don’t post about your coffee time. Don’t brag that you read a book. Enjoy sex? You sound like a billionaire now. This space is for maladjusted reactions ONLY. Emotional dysregulation as politics, as a discipline, as life itself!
"These people are crazy. This is the United States government. First of all, you never have to default because you print the money, I hate to tell you, OK?” ~Donald J. Trump
I love how this became normal. You can pay a company more than $12,000 a year and not be able to reach anyone there. You type to chatbots that trap you in a question loop.
My second kid had a milk protein allergy and would have died without formula. It should be publicly manufactured and distributed free of charge to anyone who needs it.
I have sympathy for parents who are unable to obtain baby formula due to the evil and incompetence of politicians.
I would also say that hopefully this is a wakeup call to become more self-sufficient—God literally designed mothers to feed their babies.
Jake Tapper: "One doesn’t have to be brilliant to attempt a coup."
John Bolton: "I disagree with that. As somebody who has helped plan coup d’etat, not here, but other places, it takes a lot of work."
There used to be half a trillion dollars for childcare on the table. Free pre-K for everyone. People don't want it, they don't even conceive of it as a possibility. They will reorganize their lives so a book with a gay penguin is never read to their kids.
DUNE probably has the best cover game of any classic. Absolute bangers across multiple decades. Designers and illustrators working on spiced-up levels of awareness.
@hasanthehun
Thank you for standing up for the bald. While we have toxic people in our community like Andrew Tate and Voldemort, we still deserve rights.

Congrats, your comic panel is now referenced in the MMO Final Fantasy XIV.
They wanted to move away from their old term "tribal quests" to "allied society quests" and updated challenge/achievement names and puns to match, which resulted in this:
Instant Pot parent company declared bankruptcy today.
Sales went from $758m in 2020 to $344m in 2022.
The Instant Pot is like a once-in-decade purchase, so PE guys tried to extend brand with Air Fryer, mini-oven and coffeemaker.
Failure of authorities to protect the children in Uvalde as well as other situations is further evidence ppl need the freedom &power to protect themselves. Not only in schools, & especially in crime-rampant neighborhoods where police take way too long to respond to calls for help
It's been fun watching Scott Adams position himself as an elite master of persuasion, hypnotism, and rhetoric only to fire the Linguistic Kill Shot into his own temple.
I figure the Predators in the movies are rich losers like Trump Jr on safari. Most Predators are chilling back home, working a job, farming, bartending. They probably have weird instruments and make Predator jazz.

No, everyone (terminally online) is laying the groundwork to blame an imaginary army of selfish debt-ridden bros for any midterm losses rather than conclude we have a completely broken political system.
I in no way care about getting “credit.” It’s just a slightly unsettling thing to encounter your own fleeting thoughts served back to you as advertisements as if alive in a JG Ballard novel.
I will use this opportunity to highlight this great advice from van Gogh on producing good work: “you have to eat well, be well housed, have a screw from time to time, smoke your pipe and drink your coffee in peace.”
