I must not explain the joke. Explaining the joke is the joke-killer. I will face my followers who did not get the joke. I will permit them to pass over me and through me

you are making this so difficult

my friend was testing perfumes out at the store and she sniffed a bottle and anounced "ngl this bitch kind of sucks" The girl at the counter suddenly looked really sad, and my friend was like "I'm sorry, I wasn't talking about you." And the girl looked up and said "No don't worry, I didn't think that, but I just crushed a ladybug with my shoe" We both took a peak over the counter. she'd stepped on a red m&m

Tasteful bulge? Yeah I would like a taste f- [I am interrupted by the sound of a dry twig snapping. This is impossible, as I am in the infinite linoleum bathroom dimension for this joke.]

whenever i hear about hustle culture i always think about this post on r/antiwork

had a minor crisis when 12ft.io went down yesterday and thankfully it's back now but this seems like a good opportunity to compile a list of similar paywall-evading tools in case 12ft ever gets canned for real:

  • 12ft.io: the legend himself. definitely my favorite of the bunch by virtue of being the easiest to use (and the easiest url to remember), but it's configured to disable paywall evasion for a handful of popular sites like the new york times, so you'll have to go elsewhere for those.
  • printfriendly: works great; never had any issues with removing paywalls, even on domains that don't work with 12ft.io. since this site is literally designed to make sites print-friendly, it might simplify the overall formatting of the page you're trying to access, which can be a good or bad thing. my only real issue is that the "element zapper" (which lets you remove content blocks from the print-friendly preview) is a little sensitive if you're browsing on a touchscreen device, which means you might accidentally delete a paragraph when you're just trying to scroll. but if that happens you can reload the page and it'll revert everything back to its original state.
  • fifteen feet: basically a 12ft clone, minus 12ft's restrictions. haven't used it much since I only discovered it yesterday in the wake of 12ft's 451 error but it seems to do the trick.
  • archive.today: an archival tool very similar to the wayback machine, but it also works as a de facto paywall removal tool. (the wayback machine seems to remove paywalls as well, but archive.today has better UX imo and is way faster to use.)
  • and an honorable mention for sci-hub: only works for scientific/academic journals, not random news articles, but the other sites listed above only work for random news articles and not academic publications so you gotta have this one in your toolbelt for full coverage. pubmed is your oyster.

I donโ€™t know how to say this in a way that doesnโ€™t sound like Iโ€™m advocating for casual cruelty or whatever but something that grates so much about this current social moment is how many people are incapable of saying they dislike something or someone without cooking up some higher morally correct reason for their dislike. Sometimes you just disliked a book. Sometimes you donโ€™t โ€œgetโ€ an actor or a musician. Thereโ€™s nothing morally wrong with your girlโ€™s fuckass boyfriend heโ€™s literally just annoying and youโ€™re annoyed that you have to pretend you like him when you know heโ€™ll be history in six months. Itโ€™s fine. You donโ€™t need to justify your dislike.

Yes, my grandmother's family, for example, came to Argentina to escape Mussolini's forced conscription and repression. They hate him with passion. I can tell you more stories of Italian resistance members who came to Argentina if you'd like.

Funny thing that you think the fascists only came to Argentina and only Argentina though. Did none of them at all go to New York or New Jersey by any chance? Or is it just Argentina the fascist magnet? Fuck off.

The US literally invited actual nazis to work for them after WWII, and these days both the US and England have people openly displaying the nazi flag and quoting Mein Kampf - but these arsewipes think they can judge the whole of South America as "a haven for nazis", as if those were the only immigrants we got. Bunch of wankers.

I think its really funny that usually what people point to for evidence of this is nazis getting found out and arrested in south america and I wonder if they've thought of the possibility that the US just doesn't arrest nazis lol
