Nearly all the people I’ve seen dragging Audrey for how “hideous” she is have been women — it’s actually women who have higher standards than men, even for other women.
As for me, I’ve liked Audrey for a while. I had no idea she was supposed to be some super hideous freak to many people. I cannot understand why. It looks like she’s having fun and she has some good pop songs. Women, leave her alone.
Sister, I can assure you that women are capable of really bad sex. For instance:
1) A woman who used more teeth than anything else during a blowjob. That hurt and left marks. She was genuinely trying, just terrible.
2) A woman who bounced around like a crazed gorilla and almost broke my penis. I was just a human dildo to her. I might as well not have been there for all I got out of it.
3) A woman who stuck her finger up my butt without checking with me first. If I did that to a woman, it’d be called “rape.”
There are more, but that’s a good sampling. This is another example of “women are wonderful, blameless, and cannot be held accountable for anything.” I think women are probably bad at sex more often than men, to be clear.
My honest and historically realistic land acknowledgement:
You used to be here; now you’re not. The land you dwelled on was taken. You were not strong enough to hold it so it is now ours. You lost. We won. History’s tide sweeps all away eventually. Thus it ever was and ever will be.
Alas that is probably true. Because that’s the way it always goes, like all the doofclowns now writing “authoritatively” about the 90s who are too young to recall that time.
When you advocate for copyright in the modern age, you are advocating for artificial scarcity that is a deadweight loss to the entire civilization. I do not care what your “good” reasons are. Every argument you make ultimately reduces to prioritizing extortionate rent extraction from things that cost nothing to copy. Culture is a commons, and you are fencing it off so a middleman can charge admission at the gate. Call it what you want and cry all you want. It doesn’t matter. It’s still a tollbooth built on infinite abundance.
I’m certainly not defending misogyny, but women in the US in particular are just worse now. Their mental health has been destroyed by smartphones and social media; these are not the same women we used to have. Most of them are entitled, repugnant, spoiled brats who hate men but still think they all deserve that top 0.1% man — while offering nothing and looking like a cave troll due to no exercise and obesity.
So of course there is going to be some backlash to that. It’d more notable if there were not a counter-reaction.
Uh…I’m sorry for reducing all y’all’s earnings. Kind of. A lot of you deserved it though.

So much clownery from all sides regarding AI. None of these people understand it, have any kind of valid thoughts about it, or really have any basis for even pondering it. And they are worthless losers.
Also, I don’t care about copyright at all, in any context. Destroy it forever. I’m glad the AI companies trained on all that copyrighted material. I hope they do much more. Ingest it all; create the world mind.
To me, audiobooks are worthless time-wasters. I have a thousand thoughts between each word. So painfully slow. I tried listening to an audiobook once and wanted to kill myself.
I read somewhere between 8-20x as fast as the average person speaks, depending on the complexity of the work, so I have no time for the glacial pace of audiobooks. Just no.
This is the best cover of Smashing Pumpkins’ “Tonight, Tonight.”
There used to be a great live video of the band playing the song. Now lost, like most things on the internet. Sarah has great enunciation and her voice is single-tracked and unprocessed (very rare now and then). Just such a great cover with more heart than the original, and a far better voice.
This song has a nice lead-in, build-up, lead-up and lead-out.
Anyway, y’all, I like it.
