Being bombarded by "Cyber Monday" sales pitches...by the same companies who did "Black Friday" sales pitches.

This is actually quite brilliant, up to and including the final sentence 🔥

talk to you later, my bus is pulling up

Banana Vans were some of the most advanced rolling stock in the UK in the 1920s. Automatic brakes, insulation, interior temperature control. Bananas were treated better than most passengers. :D

Words of wisdom right here.

Welp, I'm awake. Fuggit, breakfast leftovers time.

Just a reminder to leave a rating/review on all the games you’re picking up in these sales. Taking two seconds to leave a 5 star rating can and will help that creator immensely. That one rating you leave could be the tipping point in the algorithm that gets that game seen by far, far more people.

I have never drunk/impaired texted anyone. And I'm kinda proud of this fact.

If you're out celebrating the excesses of capitalism, or taking advantage of the steep discounts to get needed items, DO NOT patronize Starbucks. Your pumpkin spiced abomination is not worth crossing the picket line.

@badsquiddogames.bsky.social it am arrived safely over the pond! Thank you!

Make your holidays more maudlin and tremulous

really went dark for the sequel

Thanksgiving is a high-tier holiday because it's one of the only proper Feasts we celebrate anymore. There used to be feasts all the time. The liturgical calendar is full of feasts. We should be doing more feasts. Like I'm not "having some friends over for dinner." We're holding a proper feast.

If your time on this site is spent trolling through old posts looking for things to pick a fight over, welcome to the nuclear block club, no matter what else you claim to be.

UNBOUND AUTHORS: Leftover copies of your books in the UK (MacMillan) warehouse will be pulped within the next week or two. DM me for a link to the warehouse stock list and contacts. If you have no dosh, another publisher (Wilton Sq) is willing to buy the books & distribute on a 50/50 profit split

Thanksgiving is the sole Food Oriented Holiday for which I have no interest in culinary creativity or novelty. I want turkey and stuffing and potatoes and green bean casserole and I want gravy on all of it. “Liven up your stuffing with persimmons” no, fuck that, I will liven it up with gravy.

Are you still massively against me breaking into your home and stealing all your stuff so I can sell it or have you moved more towards acceptance?

Sure, I'll walk to every address* in this odd oblong shape to post a flyer about the upcoming zoning hearing while wearing a podiatry boot and violating my "stay off of my foot" order. FML. *over a hundred

This is an insightful but deeply upsetting article about why everyone in the US feels poor, and why the current political situation emerges as a direct result. www.yesigiveafig.com/p/part-1-my-...

The fact we no longer put little chef's hats on the legs of roasted turkeys is a *travesty* and a *moral failing* of this once great nation.

@kbspangler.com @alepresser.com Leo just walking off with the Buffingtons like that was *chef's kiss*.

I love* it when my cat looks me directly in the eyes AS HE IS COMMITING A CRIME. *I do not, actually.

Blessed are the out of town friends and family who insist on staying at hotels during the holidays

The internet is closed thank you this is the final post.

One of the most jarring things about social media is following incredible, award winning authors and discovering they’re utterly ratfucked financially. And then watching their work get fucking stolen. I dunno, this doesn’t feel sustainable.

Oddly I, an American, know where this is, and it is a travesty this parcel has not been developed into housing.

You cannot respect artists at a fundamental level and steal their work. Sorry, but that's why we hate AI.

Good luck losing less than an hour to this: a huge archive of logos for government, non-profit, private, military, and even fictional space agencies and companies. [kottke.org]

I knew this happened with airports, but I didn't make the mental leap to cruise ships.

Just a friendly reminder as we go into the holidays: Folks don't have to explain to you why they don't drink. If you offer them a drink and they decline, don't ask them why. It's not your business. Just offer them something without alcohol to drink instead. And move on.

I have been playing their games since the before times. Dig in!

Did you know that this one acre of restored habitat can support up to 20 wedding announcement photographers

This will utterly destroy US exports, as countries will refuse any PFAS-containing products.

I'm just an old man doing old man things until my body says I'm out of time.

Not a very good magician if they couldn't make the evidence disappear.

@jayforeman.bsky.social @markcooperjones.bsky.social did you shave *just* for your Virgin Radio interview? :D

Me: I should really get to sleep. My brain: Here's the focus you need to make that breakthrough in the game mechanic you've been struggling with. Me: ... fuuuuuuuu-
