Stuff I saw on the internet last week
Happy Monday! It’s time once again to avoid thinking about our existential dread and the state of the world by rounding up some stuff I saw on the internet. Yay!!!

On last week’s episode of I Hate It But I Love It, Jocelyn and I discussed the Patrick Swayze punch-fight movie Road House, and it mostly devolved into us getting very horny over Sam Elliot and his pubic hair. It’s worth a listen, and maybe you should even subscribe, if you wanna be cool!

TWEETS!
And this is a very good thread:
REDDIT!
Oh my god, people, JUST HELP AROUND THE HOUSE. It is not that hard:
She would call me lazy for sleeping later on my own days off, she would get angry with me for being sick when I'm sick (she says because she doesn't "get" sick days, but she doesn't have to leave the house if she's ill.) She tries to manipulate me by saying she doesn't like me anymore or saying she wants a divorce, and that's crossing a HUGE line with me. You can't say that kind of thing to make people do what you want. And now it's even worse that I'm home all the time, because she wants me to do a lot of her regular work now too. I think it's rubbing off on the kids because when she asks them to do their chores they say stuff like "why doesn't DAD do anything" so I'm sure she's talking to them about me behind my back.
I just found out that he obsessively searches his ex, like almost every day, multiple times a day, even on our date nights. He left his computer screen open one day with her social media page up and a tab open on a page about "Will my ex come back after X years?"
I have no idea what to do with this information now.
A good thread on fictional characters who’d be alive if everyone around them had demonstrated just a little common sense:
Sirius Black.
Come on, Dumbledore. Really?
An adorable glass of cat:
And I’ve been watching this video of K-pop singers dancing over and over again. It’s hypnotic.
I watched this great video from Jack Conte on how creating things shouldn’t be viewed as “finishing” but as “publishing” and it makes a lot of sense to me.
TUMBLR!
