Tower of Babel but for unhinged internet memes
Fun videos btw


Cmon, Bill. There has to be another way. There has… to be… a Third Way.


The best part about threatening yourself in the megathread is deleting your comments and 20 minutes later everyone is acting like you’re literally the most normal guy they’ve ever met
It’s the modern equivalent of having your arm blown off in the Civil War and later being given your uncle’s printing company out of Chicago just in time for the World’s Fair


Does anybody else face so much indecision that they just don’t enjoy things?
I can’t pick a movie, I can’t pick a game, I can’t pick an album, I can’t pick a TV show. I can’t pick a hobby.
I worry about spending my time the right way or how I would hypothetically describe these things in a social setting. I always worry about being asked a question and being expected to know something


My social anxiety and, well, autism, frequently lead me to questions such as, “How does one have old friends” or “How do you get people to shop with you” or “What sorts of decisions go into choosing a chosen family”
I feel like one of those rich people who wanted to sponsor an arctic expedition in the 1800s, except I just want to assemble a group of people who like me
These are not terms under which anyone has ever thought about friendship.
But I go to meetups and I’m silent. I don’t know what to say to strangers. Especially when they all know each other. I usually just try to run out the clock.
I go to class. I don’t know what to say when everyone else is already in this cycle of familiarity and nobody is leaping out at me. Nobody is like, meeting each other for the first time five months into the semester. Nobody is getting to know anybody.
When am I supposed to be building the one on one? I don’t see anyone, ever. I don’t know if there’s a normal ratio of online to offline. I don’t know if there’s a normal number of people or frequency of messages or what. I feel like I’m going crazy.


Got over my cold just in time to be hit with crippling loneliness. Might go look at the stars

Saw a video on social media that seemed to have plaques under every president. I wonder what Trump thinks about Warren Harding.
Edit: lots of coverage of the recent presidents. I want to see what this guy wrote about Chester Arthur and the gilded age bunch lmao


I regret to share that I am sick, and must lay around watching silly YouTube videos with my stuffed blahaj until my appetite rejoins me


The wind gets bad out here, and winter is very dry. I’ve been fighting a cold and accompanying soreness these last few days


If she can cite God, then I should be allowed to cite the hallucinations that plague my many sleepless nights, whether they’re relevant or not


I hope to be as cool as Joe Camel one day


How does he manage running a podcast and supporting a family?
I’m assuming he still hosts Charlie Kirk’s podcast from a closet in the White House. Do not break this illusion for me.


There’s no shame in stopping, or in taking a break.
Another perspective: you aren’t enjoying playing. Do you enjoy listening? Do you have music you just like to sit and listen to?
There’s so many ways to engage with music, and I don’t think you’re not a musician if you take time to figure out what inspires you, if anything. Regardless of what you play, it’s a deeply personal thing to play your instrument.
Maybe give yourself permission to just not try for a bit, and see how you feel if you were to “decide” to be done.

Shocking
