Dog with an upset stomach finally settled down here after 3 walks in 90 minutes and big slice of peanut butter bread 🙃

This site gets really fuckin weird when one of your posts crosses over to the Discover tab. Really wish the devs woukd give us a setting that lets us opt out of having our posts appear there

@masnick.com they said she could never stop it, but I'll be damned if she didn't find a way

me, listening to Soul Coughing then ,(on drugs): Oh that's how they made this

me, listening to Soul Coughing's El Oso then: the groove is fine, the lyrics are a little goofy me, listening to Soul Coughing's El Oso now: oh. oh, this song is about drugs

Your periodic reminder that people are *more* abusive online when they're using their "real names" than when they're using a persistent pseudonym and this effect has been replicated in literally every study that has ever been done

Saw a cute animal video and went through the crushing despair of "oh wait this might be AI" followed by the instant relief of "oh wait it's 9 years old phew" this is like living in a world where everyone has started glueing pennies to the floor

Remember: It's only Gatorade Hot Dish if it uses tater tots, some peas, and a cup of wild rice. Everything else is just Gatorade Casserole.

A friend of mine gave me the blue box D&D set her deceased brother owned and going through his notes on PC's and scrawled dungeon notes is both a reflection of my own teenage years and a curiously intimate look into someone else's youth. This seems no different.

Jerry Gretzinger has spent 40 years using a deck of cards to generate a map. It is now made up of 4100 panels, and we spent three days helping him to assemble it.

Was just watching a trailer for a show with Mark Ruffalo and Keira Knightley and it seemed mildly interesting right up until the point that James Corden popped up 🙃

I’m going to be a tedious scold for a minute BUT I’m seeing various jokes comparing the Knicks’ comeback to Pratt losing in LA and, while I get the point, this mostly just reinforces the problem. 1/4 (sorry)

Tonight in ~What We Do in the Shadowsdark~ "Bakrosh have magic spell called Greataxe. Turns one mongrelfolk into 40 lbs of fresh meat. Unfortunately duration: very permanent."

The reason the game industry keeps laying people off and canceling games despite consumer appetite is because the game industry doesn’t exist any more. It’s been subsumed into the black hole of venture capital, which deliberately believes there is value in treating every industry the same.

Last week I bought a used CD player that was made in Canada and when I put a Barenaked Ladies CD in, it plays the disc just fine but at the end it gives a big, wistful sigh.

CTO: As the board knows, we recently replaced our human support staff with an LLM chatbot. This approach shows strong signs of improved efficiency and increased accuracy. It's a useful and valuable investment of our resources. Put simply: we're working smarter, not harder. Meanwhile:

@diceexploder.com should be enough material here for another 10-15 playsets

Deeply annoyed that Kickstarter, a so-called public benefit company, would retaliate against union members, including one of our own in the game designer community: www.instagram.com/reel/DYF9d86...

Patricia said Matt it's been years I failed to hear her speak of many things the eyes I once believed were swimming pools now she flaps and blinks like leather wings

@beukema.bsky.social this CD is now old enough to huh beer

They never want us talking about the low rates or how difficult shoots are. You raise your voice and you risk not being invited back to set. Very happy to see the crew of Obsession slowly talking about their experience

really recommend spending $15 on a used CD player also, these M-Audio speakers kick ass

I was not steeped in He-Man as a kid so the Masters of the Universe movie didn't fire up the nostalgia neurons for me but I will say, the Marvel-style quips fire off at a steady pace so if that's not your jam, be forewarned. Upside: They buried Jared Leto under a pile of CGI and voice modulation.

Booked a movie ticket and an airline ticket. One of those things was roughly 100x the price of the other.
