I love Hallmark Christmas movies . Well, maybe love is too strong of a term. I will watch at least one Hallmark Christmas movie yearly to bask in the channel's dedication to repetitiveness, cheapness, and corniness. It makes me feel comforted that hundreds of practically identical movies are playing on the Hallmark Channel all day, every day, during this time of year. Even during the rest of the year, the Hallmark Channel has committed itself to the values of churning out the same tired stuff b…

What did he expect?

"There is no excuse for my lack of coasters"

Greetings, friends. There's no denying it. As I'm sure my fellow users of the world wide web can attest to, hell is upon us. No, we're not talking about Donald Trump being allowed on Twitter. We're talking about the madness of Thanksgiving and Black Friday. Say what you will about Covid-19, but I was perfectly happy to sit at home, with friends, enjoying a big meal, maybe a bigger amount of wine, and some happy conversation. The years of Friendsgiving were marvelous. No overly concerned grannie…

This is the way the world ends. This is the way the world ends. Not with a bang, but with a Pop Crave announcement. Last night, chaos erupted on Twitter dot com. Several sources reported that Twitter insiders claimed the public version of the app might not last for longer than a week. Since Elon Musk took over the company and began firing huge numbers of employees, the future of the website has become increasingly uncertain. Brands, advertisers, and longtime Twitter users began ditching their a…

Having a blast or frittering away one's time on the world wide web may seem like an easy feat for many internet enthusiasts, but it's really more complicated than one might believe. Boredom has a funny way of diminishing our abilities to seek out intelligent activities, pastimes, or hobbies. And our attention spans are more pathetic than they've ever been before. I swear, it's nearly impossible for me to make it through a forty-minute television episode without feeling antsy, let alone attempt…

Greetings, friends. We're back with another jam-packed gallery of fresh and mostly-funny tweets. Which is, for once in our lives, saying something, because the bird app has been worse than ever. Between misinformation about the situation in Iran, Elon Musk being Elon Musk, and the recent elections, sh*t is looking pretty damn bleak. If it weren't for the funny people who still churn out jokes on the site, we'd have been gone a long, long time ago. Today's batch of Twitter treats features the ob…

I just absolutely love waking up each day, wondering how the hell Elon Musk will manage to screw Twitter up more than he already has. And by screw it up, we kind of mean make it better. Because while some people may think they're tired, the parody accounts are simply killing it lately. And by killing it, we kind of (definitely) mean causing predatory companies to lose a f*ck ton of money. Anyway. We know that not everyone enjoys watching annoying people freak out about the inevitable demise of…

It's not a crime to want attention. And some people need it more than others. But for some reason, when people are needy , it's a bit more annoying than animals. My cat has moments where she will literally be forcing her head into my hand for hours at a time. It's a little obsessive, but I tolerate it. If it were a human? There's no way in hell I'd submit to their need for validation. But what about memes? Memes are literally created to be seen by the masses. But some of them don't get the love…

Twitter Blue has arrived

Have y'all heard the big news? Well, I guess it's more like rumors. According to a report from Platformer , Elon Musk is now considering the idea of putting Twitter behind a paywall. The report reads that “One such plan might allow everyone to use Twitter for a limited amount of time each month but require a subscription to continue browsing, the person said.” Frankly, this is a terrible idea. People are already tweeting (a lot) about their dissatisfaction with Elon Musk's Twitter takeover. Mus…

It's challenging to summarize the sheer number of wild things Elon Musk has proposed as the new unwanted overlord of Twitter. He laid off an excessive number of Twitter employees seemingly without understanding the consequences of doing so. He will allow people to buy verification for $8 a month. He has permanently suspended comedians with no warning for mocking this new initiative by impersonating him. He has begun unblocking his personal account from people who have blocked him. He has even p…

They don't want 'em

Twitter has been on a lot of people's minds these days. And that's saying something because it's always on our minds. But that's probably because we have been completely poisoned by the world wide web. ANYWAY. The reason that people are talking about Twitter is none other than Elon Musk , who has been stirring up all kinds of controversy since taking over Ye Olde Birde App. The site has been turned upside down between the mass firings and rumors about changes the billionaire is planning on maki…
