"The author turned out to be a terrible person, so I retroactively never liked his work" is a coward's way out. Especially when the truth is more akin to "You bastard, I loved that book and now it will forever remind me of how many people you hurt".

My beloved wife is watching a horrible YouTuber, who just got a Cybertruck, and it's surreal hearing him gush about how great this piece of junk is.

That used to be Etsy's policy, but then the new owner decided they should be a shitty Amazon clone instead, and scrapped that rule. :(

If you're asking "when did The Boys get woke" or "when did Star Wars get woke" or "when did Star Trek get woke" or "when did Doctor Who get woke" or "when did X-Men get woke" it might be time to face facts: you don't have the basic mental capacity to be able to handle watching TV or movies.

Oh yay, the trend is back! This happened in 2019 as well, to him and other racist candidates, and it ended with the cops pre-emptively shutting down milkshake machines at McD's on his other campaign stops. (Cowards.)

Every time they do a survey of people's political views in the UK or the US, the demographics seem to be nearly reversed according to age - young people being very progressive, olds the most conservative. However, similar surveys in Flanders show young and old being practically identical.

What humans make is art, what AI makes is “content”, and the fact that we mostly say this the other way around is telling.

My municipality's Facebook group, which was great for finding out about flea markets and such, is now mostly old folks whining about the new mobility plan and posting endless photo updates of streets that are either too full or too empty to their liking. Lead poisoning, man. Not even once.

If someone made a diss track about me, I would simply re-record it with a whiny voice, causing my opponent to inevitably respond with "I don't sound like that!"

I'm missing out on a lot of fun-looking videogames because they're co-op, and none of my loved ones: a) want to play, b) have time to play, or c) are old enough to hold a controller.

From a very entertaining Spelljammer side-adventure, where our autognome mechanic decided to earn some money with a side-hustle.
Our DM had 3 mini character sheets prepared for the rest of us players to fill the other roles, randomly pulled from his hand.
Shenanigans ensued.

Following a lot of US comic artists on here is honestly kind of depressing. Way too often they'll write about their struggle to make it ends meet, and then post art that makes me think "in any just society you'd be a millionaire off even *one* of these drawings".

The fact that there is ZERO coverage of the fact that Jews are loudly and proudly participating in all of these protests is telling b/c it goes against the narrative the media and the administrations and the people in charge are painting. (That they're busting these up because of antisemitism.)
