Makes it so much easier for people who might want to reskeet you if they can reskeet just one or two posts and not have them starting and ending mid-sentence.

I wish people threading would learn an important thing I learned from @alexandraerin.com saying it once -- make every post in a thread one coherent thing, and break it at the end of a sentence, even if you have characters left.

here's a fun one. I barely if ever wrote about Stray Bullets back in the day because it was too good and I wasn't good enough. now I'm old enough to not know any better, so here's a few words about Stray Bullets, Juice, and the risk inherent in doing favors for your boss:

Funniest thing about this is that Juelz Santana started calling himself Young Mohammad Atta after 9/11 and no one in Dipset broke stride or anything. They started calling themselves Dipset Taliban and only got bigger.

Jack Black has replaced Kyle Gass with Tim Tebow and they are now called Respectful D and sing songs about doing normal push-ups instead of ones with their dick

Wild that Jack Black is so keen to keep playing the frog that cucks Chris Pratt on the weekends that he would disavow his own mother to keep the role. Sleaford Mods showed similar desperation for the continued adoration of Guardian columnists. Hard to say which is more of a riddy.

And of course ironically the *most* cringe taste you can have is just agreeing with the cool kids' received wisdom.

For way too much of my life I tried to shape my media tastes about what would prevent people thinking I'm cringe or getting mad at me. It's not a good way to live and it's largely a prison of your own making but inevitably there are disagreements. Also: People being mad at you isn't the worst thing

Obviously I'm not talking about, you know, actual evil or malice, but disagreements like "is it OK to like and find redemptive readings of problematic artists?" are the kind of thing where if you can't amicably disagree you'll neither have any friends left or ever build a coalition.

The emperor sets all his tweets to "Everybody can reply," as a matter of ancient custom. This, of course, does not mean you should reply to him. There are formalities to be observed.

The thing is, all Black had to say was something like "obviously we don't endorse political violence. We're a comedy act and comedy involves pushing borders. This time we pushed too far and we'll try to do better in future" and it'd have blown over in a week.

I don’t look back on my teenage Morrissey fandom with much joy but I do remember being 15 and buying a record with a song calling for the Prime Minister to be guillotined and thinking “yeah fair enough”, it didn’t feel like some unwritten rule of rock star civility had been broken

This episode aired in 1994 and no other joke about American politics has held up that consistently for so long.

Kyle Gass is one of the most genuinely *nice* people I've ever met. Don't know him all that well, but I am now in full, raging, protective "How dare people fuck with my friend?" mode the way I get over people I'm much closer to.
