Posts you had second thought about and decided not to post - put them here

i mean, yeah, Sufjan, you're right -- there are certain ilx threads that are definitely folder like and their intent is such and there isn't really too much conflict or fraught-ness about it. But like, coping with covid is different than album covers with little people in someone's hair

right, but that's the other folder-like extreme. even the more conversational threads will have some anecdotes thrown out and ignored. when someone posts about a spotify bug on their phone, they are certainly hoping to have a conversation* about it. it just isn't going to happen every time, so the thread looks like a log of spotify app issues.

at some point satire becomes worse than the thing it's satirising, and that point is where it thinks it's qualified to mock the prevailing pop culture but also really, really wants to be the prevailing pop culture as well

it's no Dyson with Death that's for sure

VIDEO GAME DUNKEY

it's not the dunkey we wanted, it's the dunkey we deserve

do i post Lana Del Rey parody lyrics?
do i make a joke about the Subway Soda Drip Tray?
is it even worth making a horribly formed joke about these stupidly named TV shows?

this has nothing to do with anyone who has a birthday today or the surrounding days or weeks, but

who cares about birthdays!?!!!?!?!?!?!?!??!

Allende must be relieved to hear that

morelike man-a-post-a-loada-shite syndrome

Or even Obama'08-Romney'12-Clinton'16-Trump'20 voters, though I would like to meet whoever that describes.

ORC Tards are all thats wrong with this country

and i would do anal things for love

her eyes are orange, her tongue is black, she has purple prickles all over her back

Americans, please join the stop posting on the Ukraine thread challenge

Proxy Paige

can we list board members here?

it's all on poxyfule.slack

where no one talks shit from a distance

Will talk shit from nearby.

Your egg could be the next Simon Pegg

Your jism could help revitalize neoplatonism

Your yoni could harbor the creator of a new type of macaroni

Your secretion could help create the next emperor Diocletian

Sometimes it's like pulling teeth to inspire the sort of aforementioned "engagement" most people here enjoy, but that's probably my problem.

Pika-pi!

Exactly the people whose opinions you’d want to hear on South Asian politics

applying standards to others you have no intention of applying to yourself: C/D?

Can someone open a window please?

Heavens no, not the middle class! Whatever shall we do?

putin is just punishing ukraine for not helping with the hunter biden laptop thing, isn't he?

(i don't feel like getting shouted at in that thread for a semi-sarcastic troll post like this one, so I won't)

vlads

nice

otm

Not going to touch that toxic ass Ukraine thread again, but I see it’s really active today. Is it safe to assume all the Americans posting in it now are also getting shouted down and chased out? Or are the ilx politics gate keeping trolls still only targeting specific posters for abuse and harassment?

it has chilled out a bit for the moment

Americans getting shouted down, there's a novelty.

getting pisse d off imagining my trolls and dissenters crawling around my house in little butler outfits and expecting tips

Unfortunately, their new album coming out tomorrow has a few song titles that are all too apt:

"Gas in the Tank"
"Knock 'em Dead"
"Shoot for Your Heart"
"Unleash the Beast"
"Crossing Borders"

whose Ukrainian friends aren't depressed and cynical tbh?

it’s all so utterly fucking depressing

thanks

hey Andy go fuck yourself, you imperialist pig

it's an outrage that calz and Comrade Alphabet have been banned and VHS gets to continue to spout hateful nonsense 24/7
