When You Get Caught
That’s what the headline that starts with “I research porn” is telling me. Just admit that you were honking off, going through and getting a whole career in this field of research seems like overcommitting to the bit to be honest, but it’s your life. To be honest I didn’t read much beyond the headline; once I saw that the intent of the research was why use of adult streaming sites has increased, I expected the answer to be “uhh everyone’s at home all the time, great job everyone let’s go out for mozzy sticks”. I don’t know that there’s any sort of underlying causes other than the conditionals of sedentary and bored are being met. I think the story does eventually get there, but uses many more words than necessary.
If there was a subsection on quality of videos uploaded though I’d want my grant money back.
Watch This: Jackass 3 - now available on Amazon
So I’m sure that you don’t need me to tell you about the existence of this film, spun off from the famous MTV series. But you might need to know that it’s time to re-examine the film, as ten years after its release it feels like a blueprint for for today’s culture where people are constantly striving to go viral, inflicting upon us a plague of Paul siblings, Vine celebrities and other people who make me feel like I’m a thousand years old when I hear about them. Also I was just very excited to find out it was available to stream, though sadly not in the 3D format as in its theatrical run. At any rate, that Jackass existed and achieved its level of cultural notoriety was a very strange and cool thing, even getting Spike Jonze, director of HER, BEING JOHN MALKOVICH and ADAPTATION involved. Also, if it’s good enough for the Museum of Modern Art, it’s good enough for you dammit.
For being less than 30 seconds, there is so much that happens in this fight, including a man straight uprooting a tree and using it as a weapon. And that guy doesn’t even win! Also I can’t tell if that’s a fart when the guy gets his entire soul kicked in, I’m curious how people feel about it.
Donald Trump, Jr, underrated as the dumbest Trump child, has challenged Hunter Biden, long adequately-rated as the dumbest Biden child, to a debate over which of them has benefited more from nepotism. I’d been so excited for the Sundown Showdown between their fathers that I forgot there was going to be so much Idiot Child Energy in this particular presidential matchup, and barring everyone figuring out the correct answer of barring the doors and burning the venue down, this should be great theater, in the same way that Nero could really bang out that fiddle.
This is a good thread on the utility of the Postal Service, highlighting the less obvious ways that it supports communities that would be left behind if it were up to other delivery carriers. The future of the USPS, already on shaky ground, is at a critical juncture in these recent bailout talks, and its survival is essential for other auxiliary services like mail-in voting.
I would absolutely change my name and move if I saw this STRANGERS-looking lineup outside the house. CUTE BUNNY COSTUMES ONLY. But not too cute, that’s spooky too.
This year is the Hubble Space Telescope’s 30th year of operation, and to celebrate NASA has a tool where you can punch in your birthday and see a neat image captured by the telescope. It’s part of a site that includes other highlights from the telescope’s existence, along with some events that will hopefully still happen later on this year.
These Boston Dynamics robots always vacillate between being horrifying near-future tools of fascism and horrifying slightly-further-in-the-future tools of fascism, but, in these trying times, they’ve now been repurposed as horrifying near-future tools of horniness.
Finally, kudos to you if you can decipher what the email in the image is trying to convey:
I’m not aware of a database schema, period. But if I were, the name Jeffrey throwing some sort of critical error seems like a resolvable issue, but then I’m not a programmer.
