GOD she's so cool: doesn't abide by clock time; doesn't keep track of how old she is. Boss bitch ! Love her so much

not to "has actually read the book"splain, but

say what you will about SLEEPAWAY CAMP but

"Eat shit and die, Ricky!"

"Eat shit and live, Bill."

is about as good as dialogue could ever possibly be.

i cannot believe we are into year 2 of the groyper regime, the camps are open and the state is revoking id's, and we are still getting "oppressed minorities are kinda rude on the internet :/" hand-wringing

yeah we're a little tense right now, believe it or not. fucking shut the fuck up about it

this is the main thing if you're thinking about grad school: it's a job: it's a really weird job, with unusual advantages and unusual disadvantages alongside some of the more usual disadvantages: maybe it will suit your life and help you do all the things you wanna do for about six years, maybe not.

tumblr is not horny for australian anime

a grey sasquatch lights a joint while a brown sasquatch sits a bit further back. The grey sasquatch says, "I'm a fuckin' prisoner, mate. They've kept me down here to study me, run tests on me."

The brown sasquatch says, "What sort of tests?"

The grey sasquatch says, "One of the tests is how much weed a sasquatch can smoke."

the grey sasquatch hits the joint and says, "The experiment's ongoing."

they're showing me australian anime

Telling Edward Said's nephew that I am flipping the order I hyphenate this whole Canadian-American business !

elite institutions are so funny...

crying quietly! in front of Edward Said's nephew

This I think is more than anything the central fact of my "whole deal"

If I can look at something carefully, then it is going to interest me.

IDEAL THEORY: Readers should be careful that they don't take philosophical metaphors and analogies literally !

NONIDEAL THEORY: Readers are definitely going to take your metaphors and analogies literally, so you might as well make 'em weird, engineer them to help people set jokes up

I liked Foot when I read her and would broadly describe myself as a virtue ethicist to the extent that I have any opinion whatsoever on moral philosophy, but I read her so long ago that I doubt I could discuss either book I've read by her in much detail

I'm very interested in how the trolley problem entered into the broader public imagination, and the function it plays there. People really latch onto the imagery in a literal way, and ignore Foot's later iterations (ex. organ harvesting).To me this is more interesting than the actual trolley problem

imagine if your portuguese language translator was Tony Guterres. I'd be pissed off, even if he did a good job. Especially if he did a good job. I'd be like, "Don't you have more important things to do right now?"

how did he have the time

I guess he was translating Martin Buber when he died but that is less interesting to me

what the fuck? Dag Hammarskjöld translated Djuna Barnes into Swedish? While in office???

tall, evil, brunette.

I'm not exactly a woman without qualities. But it's true that I don't have that many qualities.

your man is weak in the ways of cribbage. He starts pegging with a five. He misses nobs when he counts his hand. He throws a six and a seven into his opponent's crib. He's a liability. You'd better send his ass to the dōjō before we muggins him.

it would go down like the scene in ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER where the 1-800-REVOLUTION call center boss decides that DiCaprio doesn't need to follow opsec

The Iranians would let me pass through the Straight of Hormuz, no problem. I'd be like, "Guys, come on. It's me. Lonnie." And whatever NEDAJA commander would be like, "Oh, Lonnie! It's nice to see you. Of course. Come on through."

lately I've been considering becoming some kind of maniac

click hole parody quote: "Often Ill see advertisements for porn games and they say, "Try Not To Cum, but then when you play the game, it seems like the object is to cum. So yes, I would call that bad game design." -Shigeru Miyamoto On his revolutionary career at Nintendo

“Super Mario was based on an Italian man I saw die in an accident on a construction site. I thought to myself, ‘What if that man had been killed by a gorilla, rather than negligence?’ - Shigeru Miyamoto

Happy Mario day!
