Bluesky keeps uncropping my photos, so I have to be careful when taking photos of items on my desk. Although I try and keep a nice workspace, you can occasionally see my crocs peeking off the edge of the desk and people are weird.

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH... Butt."

That has to be the most hesitant zombie I've ever seen... "I don't think I'm supposed to be here..."

Imagine if this is how it happened. Thinking so hard his head just explodes like in Scanners.

Off Brando.

Reminder that the versions of RE1,2,3 and Dino Crisis on Steam are the same as the GOG versions. So, if you’re looking for a cheaper way to play? This is it. (I know, “of course they’re the same!” I mean, they’re literally the same builds ported by the same people.)

Gone is the dread I felt when seeing the rain, knowing it would flood a conservatory roof full of holes, or leak in a bedroom, or flood a drain. I am far away from that place now. In, is the dread that the rain and sun will make my lawn grow and I'll have to buy a machete to get the bins out.

Removing the space between "It's" and "a" makes it sound like Mario is saying it.

I get that they have to make Batman heroic, but it’s surprising how his response to *not* killing the Joker is “It would be too easy” and “If I did, I would be no better than him” rather than “You know I’ve seen a tied up Joker get caught in a nuclear blast, and he was back next week? Shits hard.”

Who needs a soul-draining whip passed down through generations of vampire hunters, when you can just throw birds at Dracula?

As a Brit who has seen people drinking at football events, imma just let this thought hang in the air... You're going to have something that contains 12 beers, around people who are likely already drunk... Then, put it in something people are GOING TO KICK even if you tell them not to?!

Please remember, the future is not set in stone. We can turn things around, but it takes effort. Contact your reps, get involved in local orgs, do what you can.

I'm reminded of that bizarre reply I had on Twitter where someone saw my ":D" and said "Nice handmade emoji". 🤷‍♀️

I just got this mental image of an Ooze style "Listen here, you little shit" and had to make it.

*Sigh* He has a three headed dragon to fight tomorrow, and before that, he has three Tokyo blocks to crush and those will definitely have the military firing at him. Let him sleep.

Twinsies!

Don't get me wrong, it's beautifully animated, but the tonal whiplash just had me in stitches:

be careful if you’re on these ssri/snri’s with the hot weather! reposting this with alt text 🩵

Headline: "You can earn a billion dollars; This is why it's misanthropic to say otherwise." Me:

People weren't kidding when they said The Hills Have Eyes part 2 was bad. It's one of those rare movies where I lose half the story because I doze off and only the odd horror music sting kept jolting me awake. It didn't have enough of its own merit to even ride on the reputation of the first.

Male Bird: 🙋‍♂️🕺🙆‍♂️🕺🙅‍♂️🕺💁‍♂️🕺🤷‍♂️🕺🙇‍♂️🕺🤸‍♂️🕺🤹‍♂️🕺 Female Bird: 😒 "I have concluded that your proposal is neither credible nor attractive"

My sister was confused when the person on the phone asked her for a code she was told never to give out... She was right to be confused. I get that it's contacting *them* rather them contacting *you* but it's still as clear as mud for chronic overthinkers like ourselves.

This is exactly how I used the Steam Deck as my first gaming PC.

This was my internet before internet was a thing in my parents home. 😊

It's nice to experience things actually released this year. Due to horrible personal circumstances, I was unable to keep up with movies and sequels, only catching the odd TV series as something to look forward to. But lately, I've been able to catch films and games close to release, it's great.

Well, yeah, CGA stands for “Cool, Gender Affirming!”

I feel like every few years, we should update this image

It's funnier when you've seen Part 2 and know that Joseph's training involved carefully navigating spikes using hamon, and now he's like "Screw it, I'd rather electrocute myself".

It's weird how Stella thinks that movies are on this linear path through decades, and there hasn't been dips and rises in watchability. As a child, I still watched movies out 20+ years ago. Even now, I'm getting around to the stuff I missed and rewatching things with a new outlook.

These have been left for an action movie protagonist to ride down a steep hill and save his family. Also, Mountain Dew paid for product placement.

No, Aaron. I get you’re in a tough spot, but I cannot permit you to run from this.

The origin of my Miqo'te catboy's surname in FFXIV is Q'tayl. It's a pun for "cute tail", tying in to a running gag I had for a little while about an unhealthy admiration of tails. The joke was a warrior of light so deeply engrossed in literally chasing tails, that they happen upon success.

I envy those who have the free time to formulate and discuss vapid conspiracy theories, while also playing games... ...They're... Playing the games... Right? They're not just going online, chatting nonsense and speaking more passionately about the "discourse" than the medium? Right? :|

“What the hell was that?! Am I supposed to believe this is the same Captain Falcon capable of punching people for miles?! What a total waste of time-“ “Uh, Zeno, your mic is on-“ “I KNOW ITS ON!”

You know, in uni, the lecturer insisted that we call ourselves "writers". Many of us were saying we "want to be writers", she kicked that last barrier away so we can be ourselves. Gatekeeping generally sucks, but it's perfectly fine to say these people shouldn't have "author" in their names...

this advertisement has become funnier with every single management decision

I wish sensationalist channels would stop calling a game “controversial” because of review scores. Firstly, the hyper-fixation on review scores needs to stop. It’s an opinion, nothing more. Secondly, unless a shady publisher is paying for review scores, it’s not the game that’s controversial.
