addendum: threads is so bad that it's literally banned in All Of Europe because it violates the GDPR, aka General Data Protection Regulation.

catholic emperors would name themselves “pope innocent” “pope clement” “pope never did anything wrong” “pope tiny little baby” “pope good guy” and then commit atrocities

“It's taboo to admit that you're lonely. You can make jokes about it, of course. You can tell people that you spend most of your time with Netflix or that you haven't left the house today and you might not even go outside tomorrow. But rarely do you ever tell people about the true depths of your loneliness, about how you feel more and more alienated from your friends each passing day and you're not sure how to fix it. It seems like everyone is just better at living than you are. A part of you knew this was going to happen. Growing up, you just had this feeling that you wouldn't transition well to adult life, that you'd fall right through the cracks. And look at you now, it's happening.”

what the fuck happened to the word artist. or entertainer. a content creator is what you'd call a bulbous worm disgorging bilious nutrient feed into a larval trough

[with concern] the content creator is gurgling again

I cannot express how much I have riding on Greta Gerwig’s Barbie (2023) like y’all don’t understand I want it to be phenomenal I want it to be groundbreaking I want it to break box office records I want it to make film bros angry beyond comprehension I want it to overwrite my brain chemistry I want to see camp and trash and elegance and sublimity I want Ryan Gosling to win an Oscar I want Greta Gerwig to haunt my dreams like the ghost of Barbie Past, Present, and Future
