1.) Oh, The Intercept, you Useful Idiot Putin-shills. “The lawsuit against Wikileaks is an attack on press freedom!” Jesusing Christ, you navel gazing ego-cases. It’s an attack on espionage taking on a flimsy cloak of journalism so as to get away with espionage. You’re. Being. Used.

2.) “Russian government”. Dear journalists, there IS no Russian government. There is a cabal of Kremlin spylords and energy plutocrats rigging their elections and then rigging ours too. By giving them the dignity of pretending they’re a legitimate government, you help prop them up.

3.) Of course you shouldn’t go chasing waterfalls. They are a stationary phenomena. You can just stand there to look at them.

4.) Rich people pretending to like terrible cheap beer so as to pose toward “working class cred” always bothered me. You can drink a nice craft IPA stout, you aren’t FORCED to drink PBR or UC or that Stewart’s housebrand swill Mountain Brew. Just go drink your actual good stuff, huh?

5.) When Kylo Ren isn’t wearing the mask on Sith business, just literally chillin’ like a villain, you know he rocks a fedora. A space fedora but none the less.

6.) As sociopathically psychotic as “guy with a gun in a picture with his daughter and her date” is, as if the threat of gun violence is a funny funny joke, don’t overlook the sick misogyny of it either, treating his daughter like chattel property, like a rancher and his herd.

7.) During his brief “back to nature” phase, Data would refer to himself as a “Thoreaubot”.

8.) Saw a roadsign for a psychic fair with the corrected date of the event taped over the date originally printed. You’d think they would have seen that one coming.
