My last GTA game was 3, and I have no plans to buy 6. I think my days of killing hookers are probably over. Y’all have fun, though.

When reality surpasses fiction! Top: fictional forecast for August 2050, broadcast by French TV in 2014 to warn about the consequences of global warming. Bottom: Real French forecast for yesterday, June 22, 2026.

Genuinely: for what? What has Bill Maher ever done to deserve special honors of any kind? At best he’s a Comedy Central roast.

Bookshop .org is doing their Anti-Prime Day Sale, and you can get all of my books on there, including the paperbacks of the Reanimator Mysteries as well as the ebooks for the rest of my books

The headline leaves out the lying, because of course there was a lot of that too.

So we’ll all die, but on the other hand we get to have this fucking useless technology that’s ruining everything.

Me in 1768: I dislike the new Prime Minister and the Steam Machine is still too expensive. Me in 2026: I dislike the new Prime Minister and the Steam Machine is still too expensive.

The crazy thing is that for most of my life I would go ten, fifteen, sometimes even thirty minutes at a time without thinking about the Reflecting Pool.

I have no way to test this, but I'm becoming more and more convinced that any time a goal is scored in soccer it radically increases the chances of another goal being scored in the next five minutes.

THE PRETTY MAN GOT A GOAL

Today's bloggery:

Is there a single word equivalent of "existential dread"? It's on the tip of my tongue.

It would be easier to follow Haaland instead the ball if I could ever find the gigantic bastard. What if we reduced the size of the pitch by 50% or so? Let's do that.

Just searched for the score of the France-Iraq match and was shown, on one half of the screen, the current score of 3-0, and on the right half of the screen, a "search assist" explaining that the game was over and France had won 1-0. I want just one thing in my life that never provokes despair.

Going to follow a suggestion and try my best to watch Erling Haaland during this match rather than watching the ball, which will not be hard, because my God that man is so gorgeous he transcends normal sexuality.

My assumption is that any national anthem I don't know the words to simply repeats the name of the country over and over.

I would like a law to be passed that if someone sends me an unsolicited text message offering to buy my house, I can hunt them down and kill them. Bonus points if they have to include their home addresses in the text messages.

I have never been happier to be indoors than I am right now watching this France-Iraq match.

Okay, I'm not sharing Anthropeum anymore until I stop sucking at it.

Seriously, when are we going to start burning the data centers down?

everything is a joke but nothing is funny anymore

i’m sorry to all the fuckshits out there but “not being able to handle profanity” is a character flaw imo

Speaking of horrible old people, is Mitch still in the hospital?

God damn, this bastard just can't die soon enough. I need him to die in the *past* at this point.

There are parents out there who genuinely seem to think it's up to them whether their kids are gay or not, and I will never understand how they think that works.

More and more I'm realizing that the crux of this debate, such as it is, is actually about whether parents literally own their children or not.

I might give that to slavery but he’s close.

I genuinely thought we were done with Chris Brown.

New app: do you want to enable notifications? Me: I don't even want to have this phone

Let's take a moment and pretend we live in a country where laws matter. How do these cornfed shitfucks have any jurisdiction in DC to detain anybody?

Neither of those are problems 😂 #books #book #reading #iamreading #booktalk #booksky #tbr

ORANJE!!!

Look at all that orange! This is practically a home game for the Netherlands!

I feel like knowing they’re all in the same place at the same time has obvious implications.

Oh my god.

What is the religious meaning of a giant snake hanging in the main window of an old convent? Or am I correct in assuming I have stumbled into a horror movie

Apparently if I want to watch World Cup games on Amazon Prime, which I pay for, I have to also pay for Fox One? Someone fetch my hammer.

I've decided after thirty years of U93's Roofsit fundraiser to help prevent child abuse, I'm going to start a monthly donation. Wanna join me?
