@adammarkbrazier @Noahpinion Dude, it's right there in the profile. He is from America, Ukraine, Taiwan, and a rabbit.

@Noahpinion You are from Texas, right?

My ranking of seasons: 1. Spring 2. Winter 3. Summer 4. Fall All are good, but Spring is the most good and Fall is the least good.

@CococonutGun Don't deadname them, fascist. They go by "Titler" now.

would you misgender transgender hitler?

@Noahpinion Yes.

OK, if every adult has completed 7th grade, and yet most adults can't read "at a 7th grade level", what does a 7th grade level really mean?? Is this just the level we would *like* all 7th graders to be able to read at?

@ReubenR80027912 Think about the average lexile level of the material you encounter on this site--the spelling, the grammar, the punctuation. Take this from someone who fielded letters to the editor at a newspaper: what you read here is well above average. 6th grade might be on the high side.

I refuse to believe that most Americans can not read at a 7th grade level If this is “true” then it means we are simply measuring literacy incorrectly; 163M Americans are actively employed Can your 6th grader read an employment contract? Read heavy machinery instructions?

@katrosenfield On the brighter side, this is the first time I have seen a post of this type that spelled "fascist" correctly.

chanced a peek at The Bad Place and, well then!

@CorpseKings Dread Panda

What's a fun name for an Evil Undead Acrobat? 💀

@LoveTherapis1 A partner. Someone to travel with, to share new memories with. To laugh with. To appreciate me for who I am, and to be appreciated by me for who she is. To rely upon; to be interdependent with without the slightest sense of shame. To be my ride AND die.

Men only , serious question Besides sex, what do you really want from women?

@justindeanlee You, sir, are the poet of your generation.

The first time I abandoned a girlfriend in the mountains was an accident. We had an argument about something trivial, and she decided to go off on her own for a bit to cool down. I insisted she stick to the trail, but she said she didn’t need me mansplaining how to find her way in the woods. So I dropped it. How does one manage to get lost on a mountainside, anyway? You just walk downhill until you hit a switchback or reach the valley. Common sense stuff. Well, she managed it. When she didn’t turn up by nightfall, I contacted the ranger station and they set out to find her. By 1am, I got tired of waiting and drove home. They called the next morning to say they’d found her in a makeshift den she’d dug beneath a deadfall. She was naked, gone completely feral, her face painted with menstrual blood. A ranger tried to wrap a blanket around her shoulders, and she bit a golf ball-sized gobbet of flesh from his shoulder. So they sedated her and took her straight to the nearest hospital. That was three years ago and she still hasn’t recovered human language. Needless to say, I acquired a taste for it. I’m up to a baker’s dozen now, not counting the one that found her way back to the car before I could drive off. But you never forget your first. Sarah will always have a special place in my heart.

@LeviABx Better check the graphs for the names "Shaggy" and "Violent".

@LeviABx So...your thesis is that new parents look at the Gallaghers and say, "YES, this is who I want my son to become..."

The popularity of the name Liam has basically been on a huge rise in the US since the release of the first Oasis Album not DEFINITELY causal, but MAYBE

@SolomonFoskaay Alternative explanation: The Corgi took charge because it is, in fact, the reincarnation of Queen Elizabeth II.

I dove deep into why this corgi became the undisputed mastermind and leader of the pack of 7 lost dogs- here are the key verified facts in concise points: Corgi Breed Traits That Made It Happen: Pembroke Welsh Corgis (the most common type seen here) were originally bred as cattle herders in Wales and their entire genetic blueprint is built for leading, directing, and protecting groups over long distances. Natural Leadership Instincts: Herding dogs like corgis are wired to take charge. They instinctively circle, check on stragglers, and keep the pack moving together - exactly what footage showed when it constantly glanced back to make sure the bigger dogs and the injured German Shepherd stayed in formation. Fearless “Big Dog” Personality: Despite those short legs, corgis are famously bold, confident, and assertive. Owners and trainers call them “a big dog in a small body” — they don’t hesitate to lead even when outnumbered or facing danger like highways and traffic. Top-Tier Intelligence & Problem-Solving: Ranked among the smartest working breeds, corgis excel at quick decisions and adapting on the fly. Navigating 17 km of unfamiliar expressways, fields, and obstacles while keeping seven dogs cohesive? That’s textbook corgi genius. Endurance & Low-to-Ground Agility: Their sturdy build and low center of gravity give them surprising stamina and stability for long treks, perfect for staying ahead and setting the pace without tiring out. Pack Loyalty on Steroids: Corgis were born to manage livestock as a team. That same drive turned this little guy into the ultimate pack protector and navigator. The corgi being the tactical leader is literally in its DNA. No surprise at all! For the full story of the epic 17 km escape of the 7 dogs, the fall from the truck, and the happy reunions led by Corgi, check my complete deep dive here: x.com/i/status/20361…; Who else knew corgis were secretly tactical geniuses? Drop a 🐾 if you’re not shocked! Share to celebrate these legends.

@robbysoave I was an enthusiastic participant in the Animal Farm backlash. But where performative rage is concerned, I keep losing track of the zeitgeist. Help an old man out. What, specifically, am I expected to be angry about this time?

I am shaking with rage

@reachsummitpod When your revenue model is driven by alums who are nostalgic about what it was like to be a college student--as is the case with a lot of high major programs--you can afford turnover. The fans that matter economically aren't rooting for the players, but for the uniform.

We havent seen it quite yet but an 80% turnover at most high major is going to kill fan interest at all levels

@jessesingal Hey, remember college?

uhh this is partly my bad but because I misunderstood an online offer via DraftKings/Polymarket I now have $40,000 riding on whether I will experience "wistfulness" more than 3.5 times in the next 12 hours

There’s a huge problem with naming a street after Chuck Norris. No one crosses Chuck Norris and survives.

@Fredosphere I bet I know what it's paved with.

The surprising thing about Hell, Michigan is that the road is narrow and twisty and you're most likely to fail if you try to go there

This week, the LLM and I are digging a hole through the center of the Earth to the other side. Claude is less than enthused about the whole thing. stevedubois.net/2026/03/the-cl…
