While the Onion buying InfoWars is indeed extremely funny, very few of the posts I've seen commenting on the sale have mentioned that the families of the Sandy Hook victims apparently agreed to voluntarily reduce their lawsuit payout as part of a deal to ensure that the Onion would acquire InfoWars wholesale, rather than having the company broken up and auctioned off piecemeal, as the latter course could potentially have allowed some of those pieces to end up back in the hands of Alex Jones' cronies.
Like, yes, it is in fact very funny that InfoWars is now a wholly owned subsidiary of the Onion, but the real props go out to the Sandy Hook families who saw the opportunity and willingly gave up the additional millions of dollars that could have been realised by stripping InfoWars for parts in order to make that happen.
(EDIT: Fixed a sentence incorrectly suggesting that Clickhole is still affiliated with the Onion – it totally slipped my mind that they'd sold it back in 2020.)

kitty sounds!!!!
😭😭😭 mama calling them all in and then going to find the one that fell behind and then another baby panicking and screaming because she can't see mommy and mama calling her and the baby rushing over with obvious enormous relief oh god I am CRYING
I want an entire streaming service of nothing but this!
This is the level of hyperanalystic bullshit I live for
not so fast, in the review of gusteau’s anton ego compares gusteau to chef boyardee or hector boiardi with a tone implying that boyardee is dead and in history
given that gusteau died shortly after this and the will takes 2 years after death
assuming that ego’s review was the same year that boiardi died then the absolute EARLIEST the movie can take place is 1987
and about the incredibles, when looking for the scene with the newspaper i stumbled across this
a headline from 2002, and given that lawsuits generally take a while and september to december is really quick for the banning of supers so let’s say they were banned in mid 2003, at the EARLIEST incredibles can take place in 2018, with ratatouille taking place sometime in between 2003 and 2018
assuming that was a mistake, thunderhead died november 15 1958, a date where superheroes would’ve been illegal if incredibles 1 took place in 1962
and adding onto the impossibility of the date being 1962 his death is included in the shutdown reports of the national supers agency
so the year in which the movies take place is impossible to find because the staff of the incredibles couldn’t chose a date and commit to it
I take it back
This is the level of hyperanalystic bullshit I live for
IS NO ONE GONNA MENTION THAT THUNDERHEAD IS GAY?!?!
OMG OMG OMG
“loves kids, adopted single father of 5 children, raising them with help of his roommate, Scott”
oh my god, they were roommates
i view just enough horror and have poor enough visual processing that i legit thought this was a gore-drenched bedroom that i would nope the fuck out of
Yeah, I feel like the floor is going to squelch blood if I step on it, and if I touch one of those dangling red strings, I'm going to get pulled up, enveloped, and digested by the sticky red organic globules hanging from the ceiling.
no it's nice design cause in color theory red is associated with more positive emotions than negative 😁
I engage with fiction in a normal way. don’t look at my blog

people always talk about evil clones like oooh a dark mirror oohh what if you saw what are cruel person you were/are capable of becoming. and well yes but what if you were the evil clone. what if you looked in the mirror and what you saw was so bright it blinded you. what if you had to know exactly how good you could have been.
Reminder: Antisemitism is wrong and shouldn't be participated even if you deem someone a "bad jew" Antisemitism is always wrong. This is not a flexible line. There will never be an acceptable form of it.
Oh sunk-cost fallacy, we're really in it now. We are in fact so really in it that if we quit now then everything we did would have all been for nothing and so we have to keep going in
There were two professors like this in my department and I was one of like 20 people who was taught by both of them so there was a very small gang of us who knew that Professor Brick Wall and Professor Overshare were married with two kids.
"fat privilege" I'm gonna need you to take a step back and think about the stupid ass thing you just said
"Similarly, “fat privilege” is another concept that recognizes that individuals who are considered overweight or obese may also experience privilege in certain situations. This privilege can manifest in various ways, such as not being subjected to the same level of scrutiny or judgment regarding their appearance as individuals who are underweight or meet conventional beauty standards." medium has lost it's goddamn mind. this article was written by the skinniest of bitches wtf. I was looking up how being fat bars you from obtaining any actual privilege from being pretty, because we're always seen as fat first. and this motherfucker makes an article just lying lol Fat people aren't subjected to the same level of scrutiny?
that's right, we're subjected to more. literally wtf the article i'm referring to was written just 4 months ago, and not infact, 2005
It's an opinion piece. It is not a bad opinion piece. She's not invalidating weight stigmatization - she even makes this distinction.
She's saying that:
"Ugly privilege and fat privilege are concepts that highlight that privilege can manifest differently based on one’s appearance. These less-discussed forms of privilege serve as a reminder that societal biases are complex, and people’s experiences are influenced by a variety of factors."
And I agree.
For example, Fat Privilege is being given a pass to be misogynistic against women (calling them skinny bitches, as you did) because you feel if they have a "social advantage" over you, it's okay to reduce them to an attribute and treat them like dirt.
You are stupid and I hope you die forever
made an entire blog to harass fat ppl lmao.
also i am losing my shit at the whole “fat people aren’t subjected to the same scrutiny as pretty i mean thin people!!!!” wow i’m so sorry you felt self conscious bc you only kind of look like the women in magazines! i have permanent disabilities bc my doctor ignored health problems and put me on medication without doing any tests bc she thought it would make me lose weight and instead it shredded my body forever! one time i went to the doctor because i couldn’t eat and literally less than ten seconds after i told her i was worried about malnutrition she said “oh you lost x pounds since i saw you last month, that’s great!” i had a hard time getting hired for productions out of college because most companies rent their costumes and they never rent bigger sizes for their leads bc who would cast a fat lead! in school i often had to BRING MY OWN CLOTHES! TO WEAR ON STAGE! BC THEY SIMPLY WOULD NOT BRING OR MAKE BIGGER COSTUMES!
