Merry Christmas for me usually means a rather unhappy new year for my Delta Green agents. #TTRPGs #HorrorGaming #DeltaGreen #RollSAN #HaveYouSeenTheYellowHashtag

I, too, thought this was a NYT Pitchbot headline, but I was incorrect. Unfortunately.

While Amazon is investing billions of dollars to expand AI, independent bookstores are hosting community events, personally recommending books to readers, and providing a space that is safe and welcoming during a time when we need them most. Never underestimate the power of a local bookstore.

Yes, I want one. Now, an hour later, of course …

You know why Jack posted this?

Teen Vogue produced some of the best journalism out there for years, on topics that were vitally important to teens (and the rest of us). So they had to go, apparently.

ChatGPT then tucked him in nice and snug, turned out the light, and said: "Good night, little human. Such a good, smart human." After ChatGPT closed the door and sealed the chamber, it removed the oxygen to prepare for the next prompt.

Innsmouth. Weird town. Something fishy about that place. #DeltaGreen #ArcDreamPublishing #TTRPG #HorrorGaming

Age yourself with a film you saw in the cinema as a kid.

What’s your sign?

WHAAAAT?! I am SHOCKED and SADDENED the band behind such albums as "Scumdogs of the Universe," "This Toilet Earth," "We Kill Everything," "War Party" and "Bloody Pit of Horror" would be promoting violence. SMMFH. I cannot wait for Oderus Urungus to return and obliterate this timeline.

It's like the lyrics to a Staind or Creed song you didn't know you hated yet.

It is most helpful when companies repeatedly persuade me to not patronize them. #HBOMoreLikeHBNo

Someone keeps pressing the Mr. Meeseeks Box in the White House.

So it’s “illegal” for the CIA to spy within the United States, but it’s OK for ICE. Got it. (Note: It is not OK for any branch, extension, iteration or polyp of the government to randomly spy on us. Just because government does a thing does not make it OK.)

What happens when a CBP agent finds himself standing before a bathroom mirror in an old tenement saying "Candyman" for the last — and I mean LAST — time? Do plastic cuffs work on a vengeful ghost? Any DHS officers allergic to bees? Will a Philip Glass soundtrack melt ICE?

Yes, it is. Also yes, he is.

I read this in the voice of John "Bluto" Blukarsky, which is about right for such a deeply stupid public statement from an elected official.

Fact check: mRNA vaccines for respiratory viruses are meant to prevent severe illness (bad Pneumonia). This means beefing up our immunity in the *lower* respiratory tract, eg the lungs. Kennedy talks about the *upper* respiratory tract and vaccine efficacy in nonsensical gibberish.

Remember, if you see an axe murderer, run up and feed his ass a few slices of kiwi. Problem solved and whatnot.

These 13-16 year-olds are clearly a threat to national security. First, they get a visa. Then what? They turn a 6-4-3 double play. Not on Marco’s watch!!! www.politico.com/news/2025/07...

Again, because it bears repeating: The machines are not our friends.

What's a reliable way to block all the hideous AI memes and the accounts that sling 'em thinking that a fake image will change a politician or a government agency or ... well, anything? Need a one-click, keep-'em-all-away-from-me fix. Or a pocket universe where they don't exist. Either would work.

I would be wearing my shocked face, but what's the point? #MachinesAreNotOurFriends

The machines are not our friends.

It's easier to support the artists we like, directly and indirectly, than we're sometimes led to believe.

If you had a 15 year old who said this to you and seemed to believe it, you’d be up all night panicking about what it’s going to cost you in tutors to get them into the 2nd-to-last ranked public university in your state.

Yeah, the crowd with the "Don't Tread On Me" flags and T-shirts and license plates — LICENSE PLATES, paying a premium to the government they don't want treading — doesn't seem to mind all sorts of treading on other folks.

Camp Washington Chili FTW! But even a Skyline or Gold Star counts as a win away from Greater Cincinnati — our delicious slop becomes increasingly rare the farther one travels from the Queen City. Or the Athens of the West. Or Porkopolis, whatever.

Nashville resident, can confirm every damn day we're wearing Greeleys and Stetsons and Wythes everywhere we go. ... y'all.

It looks like the answer is right in the middle of the question. Also, this might be unrelated, but as of late I can't seem to get "War Pigs" by Black Sabbath out of my head.

Quick video of the crowd from two of the #NoKings protests in Greater Cincinnati.

The organizer of a smaller march in one Cincinnati suburb said they expected 500 people; by 1 p.m. they estimated at least 1,500 had gathered. #NoKings #FiftyFiftyOne #Indivisible

Times like these can make us all feel a bit like Mud. (Aluminum baseball bat not included.)

Here's a primer for those just catching up with the rallies planned for today. #NoKings #Indivisible #FiftyFiftyOne

A string of protests is planned throughout Greater Cincinnati June 14 as part of a nationwide movement opposed to President Donald Trump and his administration. #NoKings

The "No Kings" demonstrations are expected to be the largest and most numerous since Trump's second term began, dwarfing the "Hands Off!" protests in early April that drew as many as 1 million Americans to the streets. #NoKings #Indivisible #50501Movement

And if an oligarch known to "use drugs" happened to collide with a hungry leopard near a window, it might not even need to be open.
