"incurious" still GOAT insult. You could be better but you're not. You could learn but you won't, and for no good reason, just a base dispositional apathy. Get fucked

Uther Pendragon @ Arthur

it should be illegal for things in drawers to accumulate dust. you were IN the drawer WHAT is your problem

we do need to revisit the wording of "you can't have your cake and eat it too" because i don't think it clearly enough conveys that it's more that you can't simultaneously retain a cake and also get to consume it (which would render you cakeless). for years i was like But why not....it's my cake....?

this fucking problem is how they caught the unabomber

hey you should uh. elaborate. for my own personal satisfaction

the unabomber was pedantic about idiomatic phrases like "have your cake and eat it too" and rephrased it to "eat your cake and have it too" (which to be very fair makes sense). fast forward to when he starts writing manifestos. he uses the phrase word for word in his pedantic style and his brother (who has been keeping his eyes on the unabomber shit for obvious reasons) notices the phrase and is like "oh fuck that's my fucking brother no one else fucking says that" and calls in an FBI tip

Well you can't deliberately speak in a way nobody else does and also stay anonymous you know. Can't eat your cake and have it too.

I love the idea that if Bruce had picked any other way to cope, Alfred would still have been ride or die for him. Bruce wanted to become a doctor? Alfred would be up helping him crunch before the MCATs at 3am. Bruce wanted to become an actor? Alfred would be enrolling him in all the best schools and getting Sir Ian McKellan to coach him. Bruce wanted to fight for the environment? Alfred would be showing him learn how to dismantle deforestation equipment. Alfred loves that boy but it's just Alfred's luck that his boy wants to dress like a Bat and fight crime with pointy boomerangs and a bitching car.

i could smell your boytoy coming from down the road. Wretched little rotted morsel of a thing, may he fall to time and become carrion

I love how Zohran Mamdani is wearing a suit everywhere. And if he has anything else he puts it ON TOP of the suit. A basketball jersey. A high-vis vest. All worn over the suit. He’s like the mayor character in a cartoon who’s always dressed as The Mayor. If I didn’t know who he was and he biked past me in NYC I’d be like holy shit was that the mayor
