I know it’s unlikely but had to make sure mine hadn’t run off.

Talk section of McConnell's wikipedia page getting downright snipey. Lots of rules followers but YOU'RE following the rules WRONGLY.

How can a protocol to protect Living Persons be used to protect a dead person? This is a misuse of the semi-protection protocol.

Tacit endorsement for Kat Abughazaleh?

I expect the law to make the white decision.

Text from article:

"It was not immediately clear whether the teens would face any charges."

Which means, y'know....white.

This is the kind of chuckle-fucky skeets that'll lose me the left.

So I was on a random wikipedia trail during therapy and is it weird this is like 67% of a face instead of straight half

I see this rock formation on my drive home and they look like two drunk friends crying it out.

Rock formation on the edge of Papago Park in Tempe AZ. The lines and shadows in the stone make faces.

Reminds me of the Onion article the day after Obama won in 2008.

Sorry Ten Minutes Ago Richie, I couldn't resist. Also who fuckin' killed with alt text huh?

Screenshot of a reply on Twitter.

TiredofItAll posts: What an absolute and utter discrace all of you are. Rural Virginians area stuck with representation from Northern Virginia that in way represents us. Hopefully, Karma is headed in all directions for the architects of the crazy ass hit.

Colored map of Virginia with a key blue for No, red for Yes. Map is overwhelmingly blue (no) and just the big city spots that are red (no). We'll put a pin in how this election is a major democrat win so while geographically it shows as mostly rural, they make the ostesible Republican color blue here.

Aaaaaaanywho I (Richie Ryan) replied with:

Wah wah wah whah[sic] wah wah wah!

That's you. That's what you sound like.

Keep up the good work. I love you.

Here you go.

Arbitrary screenshot of a video of Senator L. Louise Lucas, President Pro tempore of the Senate of Virginia. She is a African American woman of a certain age with silve hair cut short. She wears a dark blue dress and is in the middle of punching the camera with a red and white boxing glove.

Can you really put a price on a smile?

Picture of Adam Weistman who apparently has money. He wears a green tee shirt that has some fabulous embroidery on the shoulders. He wears a watch with hands that probably cost more than I make in a year. He is standing on a bridge in the woods near a rushing creek.

Sound was clearer in my memory but that tiny whistle is him. Nov 14 2016.

the fuck is this

I am shocked, shocked to find out this basic ass white boy sounding advice was written by a basic ass white boy.

Kinda blurry screenshot of the article byline.

He is a basic ass white boy with tossled gray hair and thick glasses he probably does ned but he's smiling a bit too merrily and while the top button isn't fastened the color of his dark gray button-up shirt does rise a tad high.

Search your camera roll for “Hell”

The website for this thing is amazing. It feels like an April Fools Day gift on Think Geek, back before they did things besides TV/Movie gear.

White bag with a yellow-and-black strip along the bottom. Top left corner is cut diagonally with a pour spout. Text reads:

More Arms And Another Smaller Butt: Can Science Make Happen?

Ka statue of the pharaoh Awibre Hor, where he wears a headdress that makes his ears look ridiculous and atop his head are two arms bent at the elbow like they're goalposts but apparently its a heiroglyph that means "life force" which is what Ka is and that's kinda nice but cheese on crackers his ears are like way big and he's got this vacant gaze and small smile and I'm like oh no this is too peaceful something horrible is gonna happen like the Red Wedding or something oh also the statue is made of wood with traces of a stucco layer that is gone now and that's really too bad.

David Simon of The Wire got asked a similar question by Ari Shapiro on NPR awhile back.

SIMON: I don't think AI can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level.

SHAPIRO: But if you're trying ot transition from scene five to six, and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into an AI and say, give me 10 ideas for how to transition this.

SIMON: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.

I left this out at an antique mall and then felt like an idiot for the typo.

A display of license plate slices with a message spelled out saying

JEFFREY EPSTIEN DIDNT KILL HIMSELF

because I was so giddy I got the letters switched like a dang fool.

Randomly dropping myself into Google street view can lead to some suprisingly fascinating moments. Shoutout to these Milanese college students given proper stinkeye to the ostrich backpack mapper.

Blurred face Google street view photo of two women staring at the camera with crossed arms and you can pretty much tell bemused-to-annoyed faces.

I asked google and it gave me this shit

Hey people who like Mars does this little nubbin guy have a name? I've looked at a few different maps of varying detail and don't see it named yet.

A section of a map from Mars focused on the eastern portion of the Valles Marineris. A small jut of land off the north rim is circled in red.

Who’s the tiny bust of? Probably Domitian or some bullshit.

Blurry zoom on a tiny bust on Epstein’s desk. Looks Roman, possibly Domitian. He wasn’t the worst but very controlling and got unalived in the end and he certainly didn’t do it himself.

Is this email a HIPAA violation? Yes NO

Here it is, had to track it down.

poorly photoshopped infographic where words randomly change font and size at random times.
