Candace just might be the dumbest member of the rogues’ gallery of dumb right-wing chancers that pollute our culture. A genuine imbecile. Makes Dave Rubin seem 50% less cretinous just by being in the same room as him.

I can understand being locked into a worldview that doesn’t make sense or is immoral, people are weird and easily led. However, if you think Candace Owens is smart and worth following, there’s really no hope for you. You’re basically a Tamagotchi with IBS.

There’s nothing “free” about being a racist and an <insert minority>-phobe. It’s a day in, day out non-stop nightmare. Anxiety and desperation are the only emotions she’s capable of experiencing. Everything she says and does in her life is fuelled by terror. And it’s all of her own making. So not only is she a bigot, she’s too stupid to have the depth of character necessary to recognise that it’s all based on nothing.

I hope this judgement helps Imane Khelif with her lawsuit(s).

Laura complains about people eating curry, meanwhile she’s evidently eating handfuls of live bees every day.

He knew her strategy going in, because every media outlet talked about it and everyone in Darneld’s circle would have prepped him on it, but it still worked.

This dude has been a layup this whole time, but everyone has fucked it up, until Kamala & Walz came along. I think everyone else expected too much of him and his base, and assumed that simply enumerating his flaws was enough.

Kamala took a much more “show, don’t tell” approach, plucking his strings like a harpist in a mediaeval softcore porno, then standing back and letting the man embody and demonstrate his flaws unabated, laughing at him as he plays out the 3 lines of uncommented JavaScript that govern his emotional life. She could have late-term abortioned a Haitian cat right there on stage and it wouldn’t have made Dundald seem any saner by comparison.

Of course, a debate doesn’t mean all that much at the end of the day. The Dendald Tramp contingent of voters probably don’t have a lot of fence-sitter types who might be moved by it. You’re either all in with that “first image of a black hole” lookin’ motherfucker, or you’re mentally well. But still, history will keep this debate fat and watered for the rest of recorded history. It will be shown to up-and-coming politicians being trained for the stage. It will be a permanent thorn in Drumald’s side and he will ruminate on it for the rest whatever remains of his pointless life. And it will hopefully be listed in the textbooks as one of the key turning points in the electoral win of the first female United States president.

I thought the little markings on his nose were his teefs 🤣

Well he fucked it up immediately. He didn’t ask for sprinkle stuff or whatever makes sense. Pretty standard requests when donut shopping, I thought??

I’ll accept that they were victims if they henceforth renounce the stupid shit they’ve spouted for the last decade.

If I’m behaving in a certain way that makes me attractive to cartoonishly evil Putinesque cunts, I don’t care how benign the behaviour is, I’m not doing it anymore. If as a result of these revelations, Tim Pool et al. dial down their divisive nonsense, even if it’s only by 10%, I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt.

I’m not holding my breath, though.

In the UK and Ireland, we call the SNES “the Snez”, but I’ve never heard it said that way in the States. Is that peculiar to this part of the world?

Your kid’s first musical instrument. It’s counterproductive and false economy to buy them a piece of shit guitar or tuba or whatever it may be, in the belief that “if they like it and want to continue with it, I’ll buy them a better one in the future”. You might well turn the kid off the instrument for life if their instrument is harder to play/maintain and worse to listen to than it ought to be.

If you want your kid to be enriched by music and to be creative, buy them a decent mid-range instrument. Make it so that the kid can’t wait to pick it up, don’t make those crucial early days of learning the instrument feel like eating watery gruel for months with an expectation of pizza at some point down the line. A shitty instrument will be an additional barrier the kid will need to deal with every time they use it. Get out of their way, buy them something serviceable. If they lose interest regardless, well at least you know they had a fair shot at it and it wasn’t the crappiness of the instrument that caused them to abandon it. And you can always sell or donate the instrument if they really don’t give a shit about it.

The best instrument you can reasonably afford is significantly more likely to hook your kid than a £50 piece of junk would. It doesn’t need to be fancy, it just needs to be well-made, pleasant to play, and easy to tune/maintain/clean/whatever the case may be.

When you’re 100 words short of a 200-word essay.

I can’t help but pronounce it like a Slavic surname.

Can’t have childhood problems with no living children to have them.

The Outer Worlds didn’t really click with me. I found it to be a relic of a much-earlier time. I hope Avowed is a bit more ‘advanced’.

If you hate exercising, there are other ways to get it “for free” that don’t involve tediously lifting and dropping weights over and over, etc. For example, play ball games with friends. Take up climbing (indoor or outdoor!). Rekindle your love of cycling around town on a bike. Paintball with friends. Take up a martial art. Pretty much anything that has movement as a side effect, rather than it being the ‘main event’.

Running on a treadmill is fucking awful to me, I hate it so much. But running as a consequence of playing a sport or moving around a boxing ring or whatever, that’s different. I don’t hate running per se, but on its own? I’d rather take the L and die years earlier than I should. Seriously. Gyms and gym equipment make me want to fling myself under a passing bus.

They’re so used to their own children either hating them or having complete indifference towards them that they think that’s the norm.

They’re psychologically abusing children from behind their keyboards and phones, for fucking nothing. Like, it does them no favours, but they just can’t help themselves.

We should be compiling lists of such people and their bullying tweets, and sending them to anyone who advertises with them or employs them. This shit needs to stop.

The use of apostrophe’s to denote plural’s need’s to stop. I will dispatch a syphilitic spidermonkey to fuck your face in your sleep if you do that shit when talking to me.

Lose the ‘infinite growth’ promise to shareholders (in fact, lose the whole shareholder thing entirely). That’s the root of all evil right there. It’s the cause of all woes suffered by gamers, devs and even the very sociopathic CEOs who think Epic exclusivity is a sound financial strategy. We all suffer for it, and all to benefit shareholders who, in 2024, still believe the lie that next year’s profits will exceed this year’s. It’s delusional, and even if it weren’t, it would quite literally be cancerous. Cancer is just a board of shareholders in a biological system.
