This is actually kind of wild because once you hear it laid out like this you can’t unhear it. The 90s “wow… yeah” sarcasm and the early 2000s vocal fry on conference calls hit way too close to home. Armisen’s ear is disgusting in the best way.
Fred Armisen breaks down the fascinating evolution of conversational accents and speech patterns decade by decade on The Tonight Show. "I've been working on some impressions of accents through the decades" 1900s: "the manufacturer and the farmer, people thought it was very British, but it's actually very Dutch and German" 1920s: "They start getting very aware of the microphone" 1950s: "It starts to flatten out a little bit. I'd like to on a Friday night, I'd like to read a book on a Friday night" 1960s: "Diverges a little bit where there's an official sort of news hour... and then the sort of people in interviews looked like they were in shock" 1970s: "There's a whisper to it. There's a sort of confusion as to what's going on, there's a whisper" 1990s: "Very kind of laid back, wow, the nineties laid back, yeah, very sarcastic and ironic, wow" 2000s: "You start to hear the vocal fry... guys are in a meeting and they can sort of hear that throughout when they're talking on a conference call"

Never forget, a 13-year study found that protected bike-lanes led to a drastic decline in fatalities for all road users. ALL ROAD USERS. What about painted bike-lanes? No safety improvement at all. For sharrows, it’s actually safer to NOT have them. Via @StreetsblogUSA @StreetsblogNYC usa.streetsblog.org/2019/05/…

How is the internet less private than in 2006, when the whole family shared one computer? Back then, the internet was weird, personal, and all of ours. So, we got your favorite meme legends back together to say it louder: What happened to the internet? 1/3

I saw someone say she's appropriating white culture by being punk and it's very important to me that everyone knows the song played in this trailer is LITERALLY about a black woman being called a poseur by fellow punks because of her skin color 50 YEARS AGO
no one's cooler than her

Way back when, I had a tumblr post about Bugs Bunny thwarting Thanos through Looney Tunes antics and an artist adapted it into a comic. Someone had sent it to Bauza who then posted this. I always treasured it and was touched by his sincere love for Looney Tunes fans

“My vote doesn’t matter! It’s worthless” Genuine question- if your vote is so worthless, why are they spending billions gerrymandering and ending voting rights and shutting down polling places and sending troops to intimidate you? Why are they buying CBS and CNN and TikTok to influence you? They paid so much for your apathy. Show them you can’t be bought. Let’s show up in a TIDAL WAVE and vote every single one of these fascist billionaire-bootlicking fucks OUT

#Wildwood was incredible. Just a beautiful piece of animation with great acting, cute jokes, and a genuinely harrowing battle scene. See it in the theater.

the most vicious harassment i and my loved ones have ever received came in the days after Rowling targeted me personally, posting uncensored images of my account to her millions of followers calling me a man in a dress. i had just turned 21, and had less than $100 in my account
J.K. Rowling has published a new essay defending her views on the trans community and calling out trans activism in the 21st century for being "elitist." "My views haven't changed... what to me represents no change at all in my political or ideological outlook has, in recent years, seen me and women like me subject not only to criticism but also to death threats. This is because we oppose the current, dominant strain of trans activism, which holds that a man who declares himself a woman is, literally, a woman, and is therefore entitled to be treated as a woman in all contexts..." variety.com/2026/tv/global/j…

I actually enjoyed “You can see everything” but people need to understand that this is not a documentary. And the device Elizabeth showed Nathan WAS NOT THE DEVICE
