Completely pointless Thought Of The Day thread

This pandemic has taught me the joy of smoking weed every day, and also why I probably shouldn't smoke weed every day.

While it’s not technically “woods porn” I did find porn in the ceiling of my house that I’m remodeling.

Listening to history podcasts is depressing because you get to hear statements like “sir francis, who was a competent and bold leader respected by the public” and go “wow there is literally nobody alive now in my country I can think of that meets that description”

Take solace in the fact that most of those people were actually really shitty and we just don't really acknowledge it. I studied WWII three times in school before I quit history lessons at 14, and I was well into adulthood before learning that as well as being a brave soldier, a charismatic and determined leader, and an artist, Churchill was also racist enough to make all the other white dudes from the 1800s go "woah dude maybe dial it back a bit" and then never do anything about that. You don't want to envy those people, because the highly popular, successful leaders, also think things like "Indians should starve because they are a beastly people".

What I'm saying is that you're wrong about exactly why those podcasts are depressing.

You're Wrong About is a fantastic podcast for that.

Remember kids, it was capitalism all along!

It’s not really about morality or ethics, the past is full of venal corrupt assholes with awful views, but my concern is the loss of general quality. Winston Churchill has dogshit views on nearly everything and a few big fuckups but he did a decent job as a wartime prime minister, at the very least. Compare him to the current crop of Tories in power and the discrepancy in competence is huge, even if the racism is the same

the antivaxxers should talked way less about blood clots and way more about how sore my arm would feel

'The big man upstairs' is probably the funniest euphemism for God I can think of but it's funnier if it's just used to describe a large fellow on a floor above you.

The first time I heard this phrase it was in like season 1 of the Simpsons and I thought they meant there was a subletter in their house that was just never mentioned previously. In my defense I was 6 or 7 at the time.

art is very liberating when not performed for school or in other restricted setting. just drew two birds in a minute and:
-i can start and stop when i want
-i could have give the bird a sword if i wanted to. or two swords
-one of the birds is a cat
-no one could stop me
