I tried a pier, but the hat was too small to read when I had Link scaled to fit.

Link wearing a hat that says "Women Want Me. Fish Want Me. There is Some Overlap Between These Two Categories."

Audience culture is the worst it's ever been, I swear to god. People forgot how to act. I'm at the theater, trying to enjoy my show, which I've paid GOOD MONEY for, and these two old assholes are in the balcony heckling the life out of the poor bear onstage. Not letting him finish a single joke.

Actually, it’s kind of diabolical the way they’ve defined “hoarding” as NOT acquiring new things.

I think at this point if you make a new compound word with -slop, you should be put to death. Some have called me harsh, however I feel a firm hand is called for.

The last of the original Garbage Pail Kids has died in custody

Unless there's presently a war on, the average common folk in my Angel's Blood setting don't feel a constant need for self-defense, I reckon. Unless you're unlucky enough to wander into Certain Places.

"a single person of this demographic may have committed a crime, therefore we must punish the entire demographic" is a policy response you may recognize from fascist governments dedicated to ethnic cleansing elsewhere.

Handing back student work that’s been written by ChatGPT with a 0 followed by the comment “This essay will never stand in authentic wonder before the Beauty of God’s creation.”

A package hasn't "shipped" if you've only "created the label"

That schadenfreude is delicious. I want what y'all have, Brazil.

raise your hand if you'd buy a phone or computer that promises it has no generative AI on it

Current CSM arc, summarized:

I make my entire living selling current event bingo cards for the year and people are constantly bitching about how things weren’t on their cards and it’s very exhausting trying to come up with these things and no one ever appreciates all the effort I put into them

"Immigration is good, actually" could be a very easy message to land in an environment where Americans increasingly just look at Trump and think "what the fuck is wrong with this guy's whole deal?"

Hopping mad that my local theater that carried Glass Onion for that very limited run isn't running Wake Up Dead Man because ???? Gonna have to either drive a damn hour or wait for streaming.

I've been blessedly free from the job hunt for nearly a decade now but this would have been incredible back when.

*Aqualung riff*

Keeping it spoiler free as I have some friends who are midway through it atm, but what I mainly want from s2 of Dispatch is some spotlight time for the rest of the Z team. It's a short game, so I'm sure it was a time/plot economy thing, but one of my main criticisms of season 1 is that it has the

BREAKING: This is huge news, the EU's equivalent of the 🇺🇸Supreme Court's 2015 Obergefell v. Hodges ruling. 🇪🇺Court of Justice just ruled all 🇪🇺countries must recognise same-sex marriages granted in other member states. This effectively legalises gay marriage across 🇪🇺

I think Democrats should double down on trans rights now. It's obvious that most voters don't care about it so you might as well stick with your principles and goad Republicans into focusing on it at the expense of everything else so they're the ones who look like freaks.

Imagine having as traumatic of a childhood as Elon Musk did and somehow coming out of it this unfunny.

There's no official achievement for getting Vampire Survivors so overloaded it hard locks, but I feel there is a moral one

Having finally finished the main story campaign (slow going because I was doing it co-op with the roommate), I can confidently say Borderlands 4 is the best game in the series. Manages to mature the series without compromising its identity, and delivers major improvements to every facet of gameplay.

How did it just now hit me that "Dairy Queen" is a pun on "Fairy Queen"?

For me? I almost never do evil runs, but my usual CRPG playstyle of "generally heroic smooth-talker whose main failing is extreme kleptomania" feels like it means more when I could be King Bastard of Shitheel Mountain just as easily.

Big day for hopefully never again having to get mad that I think a post is about cards and is instead about the Jewish Space Lasers lady.

Another commission of Philly's Gritty, in the snow, Frank Miller style. Sorta. Gritty City Sin Gritty That Orange Bastard. Your call.

Ricky Gervais is a warning about what happens to you when you become absolutely certain you figured literally everything out in your 20s.

There is a certain strain of media criticism that is incredibly boring and vacuous, and it basically amounts to; “People like media that I hate. This says a lot about society.”

I like that it describes his body like a zoologist would a particularly hardy animal's

The more surface runs I do in Hades II the more convinced I become that Prometheus is a bigger menace than Typhon, by a good margin. Beating Typhon, more often than not, hinges less on how well I perform against Typhon himself than it does how many DDs I can limp away from Promethus with.

Strange thought I had: is Watership Down xenofiction?

Guy who doesn't understand the colloquial meaning of "not safe for work": "What? Who said anything about banning porn?? All I said was they need to follow the same OSHA regulations as everyone else!"

My take on this has always been that there is and pretty much always been a market for games with dating sim elements/subsystems that doesn't necessarily translate into a demand for games where that's the main or only gameplay available, though I do get why some folks find that frustrating.

Beautiful. Absolutely beautiful. Johnson realizing that the other rats have already fled the sinking ship and his ass is going to drown.

i think it's important to note that bill maher doesn't like mamdani because he's muslim. that's the whole reason

I am extremely loathe to ever hand it to the cops, but that is just an extremely funny way to phrase it, and they were arresting a sex-trafficking ICE goon so I have no choice but to hand it to them.

Everyone has a second full time job being mad at the government now

Historians talking about Imperial China:

I genuinely cannot imagine being a working comedian for 30+ years and flopping that badly in front of a self-selected audience. It's like watching someone tear a basketball hoop down, throw it on the ground and *still* somehow proceed to throw a complete airball.

I've long been of the opinion that the best type of game to adapt into a movie or show is the kind that is heavy on character and/or setting but is light on actual narrative (see LoL-to-Arcane as probably the prime example), so you have a canvas to paint on vs just copying.

Only like 5 people will understand this comparison but.. Justin Wong is the Snoop Dogg of the FGC

#3157 A helpful tutorial

it's really important to pay attention to how Dem leaders are always eager to pat a fascist on the back, but when a socialist talks about affordability, equality, & security for all, those same Dem leaders choose to slander, smear, or ignore them. (it's because liberal centrists are fascists)

tl;dr - this first post is just as bad as the second one. No, I'm not elaborating.

Just heard re: some ICE agents who raided a Chicago taqueria, then went back to the same taqueria for lunch the following week and got confused when the owner kicked them out, and I realized "jesus these doofuses really do believe we're all living in a video game where the NPCs have no memory"

Imagining babies posting about object permanence like they're flat earthers
