GAT DAMMIT

Lisa: by your logic, I could claim that this rock keeps tigers away Homer: oh? how does it work? Lisa: it doesn't work. it's a stupid rock. Homer: uh huh? Lisa: but you don't see any tigers around, do you? Homer: Lisa, I want to buy your rock

ALS is such a nasty disease. Rebel from AEW and now CJ2K, it's really depressing to see

society today if Nickelodeon had never canceled Double Dare

okay so are we gonna talk about Steve smuggling a Thermos into the pool party?

it should've been Brett Goldstein but they wasted him on a stupid post credits cameo that's never gonna be paid off 😤

the most patriotic thing I'll be doing this weekend is rewatching Captain America: Brave New World, not because America but just because that's where I'm at on my MCU watch/rewatch

the deer that's always eating out of my bird feeders left her babies across the street and I'm gonna worry about them because I worry about everything. they seem safe enough and hopefully she'll be back for them but it is sl unbelievably hot

what has three thumbs and is off work til Monday? THIS GUY (I found a thumb on the side of the road)

if you're hot, they're hot. LET THEM INSIDE

I know many of us on this app including me would rather be ripped apart by badgers than willingly seek conversation with our neighbors but if you live around elderly folks now really is the time to step up and do the right thing and check in on them. this is heat that kills people

recently found myself backsliding into some Twitter behavior with people being assholes and me trying to show I'm an even bigger asshole and I'm recommitting myself to just smashing that block button when anyone unfamiliar sullies my replies being stupid, annoying, hostile, or using "USians"

SHEESH

if you hit "skip intro" on X-Men 97 I'm legally allowed to send you to jail

"my daughter is 5'3", can't dribble, can't shoot, can't pass, can't guard, can't block, only gets minutes at the end of a blowout, and the trans girls are taking away her opportunity at an athletic scholarship"

Folks frame this as “physical vs. digital,” but it’s really “ownership vs. licensing.” Physical games exist outside the publisher’s ecosystem—you can sell it, lend it, collect it… Digital purchases tie access to an account/storefront, with no resale and fewer options overall.

Some of our longest residents STILL need homes. All of these cats are so wonderful but are shy & sensitive, so they don’t do well in a busy adoption center. They just need people to go a little slower & give them lots of positive encouragement to show you their hearts ❤️ Elkton, MD bit.ly/4cOmi21

HOW DID I MISS YESTERDAY BEING THE RELEASE DAY FOR X-MEN 97 SEASON 2???

there was a woman splayed on the sidewalk on my commute to work frantically trying to wave down cars and she was sitting in a way I thought she might be injured so I pulled over to see if she needed help and realized too late it was right outside the local woo-woo head shop and she was desperately

my heart goes out to people who prefer owning physical copies of their media but it feels like this was always inevitable. part of why I left GameStop in 2013 is because I was positive this was coming much sooner

Last Night’s Full Strawberry Moon in Cleveland, Ohio

mandatory monthly Sam Bentley post

okay I was positive I had salmonella last week/over the weekend from a bad Wendy's chicken sandwich but now I'm like "oh maybe it was this?" anyway watch yourselves because I was straight up not having a good time and this is the first day I feel close to human again

4 games that I enjoy that aren't video games

Four non-video games I enjoy:

4 games that I enjoy that aren't video games

today has been a stupid day full of stupid discourse from some of the most bad faith goofballs imaginable so don't mind if I retreat into some whimsy for a little bit

this is heat where you can almost feel your eyeballs cooking in their sockets when you step outside

Just walking… but it’s so cute :3

a lot of digital ink has been spilled about how the right lost the capacity to feel shame but this app sure has a LOT of "adult who professionally carries water for Chuck Schumer" on it

he wants to play a season with his son (no, the good one)

MUST BE NICE TAKING A FOUR MONTH ABSENCE FROM WORK FOR YOUR MENTAL HEALTH WHILE RECEIVING FULL PAY AND BENEFITS

told this story before, but when I ran track in middle school in the mid 90s, we all just competed co-ed because people weren't little weirdos about it back then. in two years I finished ahead of a girl ONE TIME and only because she had an asthma attack in the middle of the race

Defending trans rights is a moral imperative.

love to my trans friends. fuck SCOTUS.

a sack's a heavy burden only he could carry this weight

This might be worse than when people were buying empty boxes thinking they contained the game system only to discover they paid hundreds for cardboard.

finally reached season 7 in my Game Of Thrones rewatch and man I know people were just incredibly disappointed by the way the show finished but season 6 was always gonna be impossible to top. The Battle Of The Bastards and The Winds Of Winter running back to back was unbeatable peak

I'm not saying this can't be good but I certainly wouldn't bet on it

who is advising these fucking idiots and how fast can we catapult them into a volcano? can we have healthcare? a commitment to raising our wages or lowering our cost of living? crumb of action on the climate? no, best they can do is push more people to use NordVPN for everything

a family doesn't need 4 feet of leg space per person though. you are conflating "luxurious comfort" with "utility". my Kia Soul sits five people just fine. there might be some leg grazing in the back but it gets to the destination just as well as the Suburban that you can't park anyway

this is humidity and heat that I can only describe as "hateful" and this is the "cool" day this week

I dunno man I started losing my hair when I was 20 and when I was 24 I just said "well, can't wear a hat everywhere" and started shaving it and I've never looked back at all and very few people worth respecting have ever tried to make me feel bad about it

I wish I were more talented at immediately identifying AI when I see it, but I'm also noticing more and more people are starting to declare everything to be AI slop over stuff like "well that guy's jeans look too blue and his hand was behind his back" and I don't think that's very good either
