Don't bring a knife to a gunfight. Bring a knife to a vault containing many wheels of cheese in a brutalized postapocalyptic society where knives are only a legend. You are now Knifebringer, Divider of the Cheese. Raise your knife and rule the clans.

the thing is that sometimes there are cases when the fans are actually right and it’s still not a good idea to listen to them because then you start listening to them when they aren’t, which is most of the time

I heard this show sucked but watching the actual process as someone who definitely caught a few episodes of survivor is fucking destroying me. They actually were building up an entire million dollar prize pool for hundreds of people competing in games.... and no one hired a game designer??

I'm watching the new Olsen video. Knowing nothing about Mr. Beast, the fact that he has a show where people in colorful outfits on big sets to compete to win money and one of them seems to involve dropping the contestants into a bottomless pit that swallows them I just think, "we live in Robocop"

Oh, I get it... you mean "guys who think they deserve slaves."

And then NYT has to do its fantasy world bit, ignoring the GOP's abandonment of democracy, etc. It is not a positive view of the Court, but really an insight into juristocracy, and probably a more structural set of problems that deal with a rot at the Court, magnified by malignant actors.

Kennedy's rep as a swing voter is questionable; his swing-votingness was also pretty subject dependent, and I seem to remember his last 1-3 terms were a lot less swing voting, which I don't think was ever really adequately explained.

In 1999, I was playing a decker in Shadowrun, and tried to distract a guard by hacking a water fountain to overflow, and my GM said "why would a water fountain be on the network? That's fucking stupid. No you can't try." Well it's 2026 and I just want you to know, Phil, that I FUCKING CALLED IT!

EAT SHIT, PHIL

Nothing will kill a work of art faster than trying to be "responsive" to fans -- or just listening to them at all. It killed Star Wars, it killed Ted Lasso, it killed Game of Thrones, I personally think it killed Hacks. Don't listen to fans.

Guess I'll be A STUPID ADULT and get my oil changed* before it costs several kidneys. (*not a euphemism, but it could be 😏)

Caitlyn Jenner is so worthy of criticism for so many things. Her being trans is not one of those things.

Gas is $4 a gallon but the truck bros still insist on gunning it by cyclists every chance they get

A peer reviewed study shows a promising link between flu and shingles vaccines and a reduced risk of dementia. A heroin addict who cut off a raccoon’s penis for “further study” says these vaccines cause autism. For busy Americans, it can be hard to know who to trust.

Because many kids can be vaccinated with the vaccine in 1 bottle, using a fresh syringe & needle each time, MDVs cost much less & involve far simpler cold chain logistics than single dose vials. And, let me say again, over two decades of research has shown that thimerosal is safe. 6/n

There is no evidence AT ALL of any link between thimerosal & autism. Tragically, RFK Jr, a repulsive man, keeps pushing the myth that thimerosal in vaccines is unsafe & that it causes autism—he even sells a book dedicated to this myth—& anti-vaccine activists have heavily promoted this myth. 7/n

oh my god i did it. game of the year 6 completed, baldur's gate 3. still doing the ending and the tears are here but I DID IT

Timeline cleanse—happy “Caturday”! Y’all. Who did this?💀

Is Cyndi Lauper the Phil Niekro of music in that she uses an eccentric performance quality to deliver consistent results over multiple decades and is unfairly overlooked in the modern game?

Part of this is the new herring ladders that returned herring to their ancient spawning grounds they had been cut off from for a hundred years! They came back to the Mystic Lakes and the eagles followed

Hegseth and co. have been talking at length about taking a machete to the logistics aspect of the military because they only want to focus on (sigh) "Warfighters" so that's probably a real problem right now

"passport bros" are not at all new and they are not "frustrated with modern dating" they just want women who are completely subservient to them and have zero power in their own lives

Today is Superman Day. Each prime number of likes = 1 great Superman comic cover

I, for one, think that Kash Patel is doing an excellent job. In fact, I think he should also be put in charge of ICE.

If "Roman Catholics" don't prioritize the Pope over the POTUS on theology, they're not real Roman Catholics. There is no entertaining this, accept the Vicar of Christ, or become a Protestant.

This year, with a mega-drought expected in summer, I'm biting the bullet and installing drip lines in the garden to save water. All suggestions/tips/warnings appreciated.

beautiful nerds, i need someone to create a search function to find lawyers on a bar association's website. it would search the memebrship and display who is in the geographic area you choose. site is set up on wordpress. obviously will pay. let me know who does this kind of thing.

I once ordered a pizza at a gas station and it was taking too long and the guy working looked at me and said “have a fountain soda, on the house” and I thought this man must be the most powerful man in the state

The Supreme Court long relied on careful, time-tested procedures to issue decisions. But secret memos by the justices, obtained by The New York Times, show how the court decided to bypass those procedures and create its modern “shadow docket.” See key takeaways: www.nytimes.com/2026/04/18/u...

i am starting to worry that john roberts might be a far-right partisan republican.

I was just thinking yesterday how seeing more eagles is one of our great "we can do cool things together" successes of my lifetime. I remember when the first Eagles came back to East TX, circa like 2010 it made regular news as folks watched the nest. Now I see a few a year just traveling around.

There's long been a type of savvy, conservative-coded con man who's especially adept at siphoning the money of AARP-eligible suburban and rural white Christians into their own, city slicker pockets. But the link between the grift and the right wing politics has rarely been as tight as it is today.

A federal judge in Illinois today ruled that the Trump administration improperly coerced Facebook and Apple to remove ICE-tracking apps in violation of the First Amendment. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Went to Broseley Pipe Museum - closed, but Broseley has some lovely buildings - and then on to Much Wenlock, where I found the occasional street market and the church coffee morning in full swing. Failed to win anything in the tombola though... #ShropshireLife

"branleigh, foist time long time, i really think that broad swift needs to do a duet with madonna"

calling into one of those "80s, 90s and today!" stations like a wfan guy

This is what my cousin does basically and the reason, no insult to her, is largely to do with the fact she’s from an upper income household, attended a large and expensive sorority, and (most critically) is now dating a guy who is a back up receiver who has been traded three times in the NFL

I wish it was something I heard a lot more about from elected Dems, especially leadership, when a TV camera was pointed at them.

trumps appointees being alcoholic incompetents and trumps jan 6th supporters being pedophiles seems like something historians are going to be studying tbh

I feel like I am going crazy because to my knowledge, the Pope has done nothing but quote scripture and centuries old Catholic doctrine on war. The Trump Admin unilaterally decided to take this as a personal criticism and start attacking the Pope. That is not a feud or a debate! It's a confession!

The Newspaper: nooooooo you have to debate every bad faith asshole in the worrrrrrld no matter how incoherent or wretched their supposed views are The Pope: nope I’m gonna wear a big hat

All of his businesses and property should be nationalized and dissolved and he should be stripped of literally every single asset and dollar. Put him in public housing and let him live off of whatever UBI the next Congress passes.

asleep under blankey

what shape is this

Donnie I'm taking a picture. look normal Donnie:

it's so cool how comfortably employed legacy journalists can just follow a bunch of independent journalists, rip off their stories, and still pretend they are better than the rest of us.

👇🎯 Yes but it needs to go further: - No shadow docket - No clerks - No building - Riding the circuit We can debate necessary structural reforms like more seats & such. But first, immediately, the next Congress needs to strip these Wizards In Robes of every perk & power not explicitly in Art. III.
