Shunk's Super Exciting and Insightful Observations

Oh. Shit.

The last one

Also good on these people for taking the aggressively petty route instead of falsely registering their pets as service animals

I love how everyone intentionally interpreted this not as “your dog must be small” but “your dog must be in a bag”

That last comment was my EXACT thought.

pewdiepie was one of the harbingers of the alt right internet apocalypse i hate that skinny white man with all my heart

I blame him (at least partially) for the rise in anti-indian racism in the late 2010s to today and people look at me like I'm the friend who's too woke when I say that. But it's true

and you’d be right to blame him. he normalized the rise in anti-indian and anti-desi racism through “jokes.” it took me forever to take pride in my indian heritage bc of the culture he helped set up.

Every UK and Irish news outlet rn is opting for bullshit euphemisms like “unrest” and pussyfooting around calling what just happened in Belfast what it fucking was; a pogrom. Nazis attempted a pogrom of (primarily black African) migrants.

Let me be explicitly extremely clear: the broad majority of these Nazis are organized well connected Loyalists. The media is bothsidesing this too to sell you a lie. Irish people are often racist, but these are organized pro-British gangs who have been planning this kind of riot behaviour and practising it on innocent Irish people and non-white immigrants in the North for years. They have done this openly, inciting hate and violence with bonfires, car burnings, door knockings and targeted harrassment campaigns. They have been protected with cries of 'respecting their culture' from every level in policing and government. This is not an attempt to stoke fear, but it is a reminder that these riots are not a shock to anyone tapped into Irish politics. These are the culminations of years of racism being ratified into the culture of the North of Ireland.

Why is pet play always dogs anyway

Youre a dirty little goldfish arent you. daddys gonna clean your tank out so good so you have to wait in the sink until im done.

This crumbling America economy can't even support a decent kidnapping kink. I chat this vulnerable prey girl up, tell her I'm gonna stalk and kidnap her and then chain her to.... what? My particle board dresser? My fucking flat pack bedframe? "Your radiator, obviously." IN AN APARTMENT??? FUCK YOUUUUUUU

well maybe you should blearily wake up at 5:08 in the pre-dawn light and find the sleeping soft tiny mammal body of your cat just inches from your head like a miracle too beautiful for speech, and you should rustle one hand out from your blankets to rub fingertip circles across the warm eggshell dome of her little velvet-wrapped skull and on the bristly patches just where the cups of her ears begin, and as she inclines her head into your fingers and purrs without ever opening her little eyes you should feel a love so tender that you understand how that love could have reached out from the fireside into the inky spangled nights long gone to reach her, and then you'll feel better

The thing is you can have a grassy lawn or even a golf course without it being an ecological disaster, you just have to a: be cool about having the occasional non-grass plant in the mix and b: be willing to live in a climate that supports grass without irrigation.

Golf courses in California are an abomination which is why the sport was in fact invented in Scotland.

I always thought that golf as a sport should be adapted to the local native landscape. I think this will encourage regional pride when local golfers completely trounce visitors at Swamp Golf, Desert Golf, Forest Golf, etc. Rich tourists will be pressured to travel extensively to experience all forms of golf, instead of staying in their backyard country club golf courses. Internet discourse will probably somehow get worse but I think this is a small price to pay.

Twelve more golfers have been killed today during the ongoing Tsingy de Bemaraha Golf Invitational. Meanwhile, search and rescue efforts for the Polar Golf Expedition 2026 enter their fifth day.
