YEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAH

Included with 1993 point 'n' click adventure game Gabriel Knight: Sins of the Fathers is a neat 'Making Of' video showcasing its Hollywood voice cast. Behind the scenes at Sierra On-Line HQ where we get some prime Tim Curry being, well, Tim Curry at his smoothest. #VideoBytes

I'm kinda embarrassed that the World Cup fans got to see some of the worst Braves baseball of the season

Every last theme I can think of is in L.A. Confidential, including the general idea of a dude like Danny DeVito becoming a beloved celebrity.

Yes, baseball in particular shows the disconnect by showcasing the widest variety of body types among the sport's best players, from Jose Ramirez to Aaron Judge to Payton Tolle to Jacob Misiorowski to Drake Baldwin to Shohei Ohtani to Kyle Schwarber. David Wells was elite!! So was Tim Lincecum!!

witnessing the birth of a new all timer post is such a beautiful thing

It me

"Like any great thinker, some of her insights are too revolutionary to make it to the public. Her most recent video, about the mpreg implications of the Supreme Court’s birthright citizenship ruling, was removed from TikTok after less than a day." www.garbageday.email/p/the-most-2...

Anyway, if you want to know why Jon Chait is angry, here's my non-deranged 2018 article on the DSA's historic and remarkable decision to shift from being a staunchly left-Zionist org to being America's leading ANTI-Zionist political faction: archive.is/c68VT

the thing is, the situation stearns is in is not *that* different than the one bloom was in in boston, and firing bloom did NOT make things better. sometimes trusting the process is a lazy copout; here, it's the only antidote to the salted earth left behind near-constant org turnover.

you already know what's up (steam sale rec thread is what's up) as always, i focus primarily on older, obscure, and just plain weirder games, as big name titles don't need the help. with that said, onwards!

Had to dig up a hard copy for this one.

There's a manufacturing issue with the baseball. Drag is down. Link unclear. Full story to come shortly, but here's the statement I got from MLB when I asked about it.

2. Name the society, founded in December 1776 at the College of William & Mary in Virginia & still existing today, that set the precedent for collegiate societies in America naming themselves after the initial letters of a secret Greek motto. NICE TRY, BUT I'LL NEVER TELL #LL109 #bestwronganswers

I thought I could make an inflatable coral reef out of 12v DC fans and heat-welded vinyl tablecloths... and I was wrong! All I got was a coral reef for ants, which ripped if you looked at it wrong. That led to nylon ripstop, an old sewing machine, and a whole new set of skills to learn.

Sorry I faked my death to get out of your book club

Can't wait to head to the waterfront and squeal and nerd out about tall ships in the harbor!

we've been waiting for this cavalli was taken in the lockdown draft of 2020! this is so wonderful to see – his talent has always been clear, but his perseverence has been extraordinary.

never laugh when someone misspells “schadenfreude”

opening a french bakery is notoriously painful

<admonishing in Midwest Mom> Please be safe! Bring water with you! ❤️

Yes. Yes he does.

after one of the worst overall days in recent memory, only part of which was having to drive three hours to crawl under a house to see if all the poop was gone, I now return home to watch the Braves, coincidentally to also see if all the poop is gone

honestly? I don’t have anything to say I just like typing

Metamucil is a fair deal in that it does what it says even better than you’d expect and then also tastes much grosser than you’d expect

you know, when someone says something like "these are the things that need to be done to avert disaster" and your response is "you think democrats will do that?!?" all you're telling me is that you think politics is a spectator sport

I love when a skeleton claw is reaching at my ankle as I get back into bed and I do a little hop and the demon is foiled, fucking loser lmao

We’re all lost in pursuit of stroopwaffel

Yes. I completely lost it the first time I saw my dad’s favorite mini Baby Ruths - the ones we all searched for to keep him supplied and often couldn’t find. I started to pick up several bags automatically and almost sat down in the aisle when the wave hit.

I really enjoyed this piece! It's not often #Rockies fans start a trend, but when it happens they absolutely deserve the credit!

we've got the minions bringing movies back, the Jays suck again, and the Raptors are getting Kawhi back... everything is right with the world

We finally watched I love boosters last night and I heard someone describe it as a "fun mess," which I agree with and also means I liked it. Check it out if you get the chance, before it leaves theaters! There's like a week left, at least in the bay.

What Bluesky users see before they correct a joke

underrated aspect of my kids spending a part of the summer down south with my parents is that i can cook things they don’t like. tonight? succotash with smoked sausage and shrimp over creamy heirloom grits.

once again my strategy of sneaking into your house and sanding down a stair so the step is slightly more than your muscle memory is used to has failed

Guys. GUYS. For the 35th anniversary of Spiderland, the four members of Slint went on this podcast to discuss the album. lifeoftherecord.com#/slint/

if anything this undersells her - she's the best comic tv actress of her generation and up there with the likes of lucille ball, jane curtin, mary tyler moore, imogene coca, and amy poehler on the list of the greatest ever.

this offends me not simply as an american but as someone with a history of depression who takes the issue incredibly seriously.

Supreme Court rules 5-4 that Dude Love was a better Mick Foley wrestling persona than Cactus Jack. It's the right decision, but that should have been at least 7-2.

you do not need to respond with the rage of a thousand fires because someone posted a screenshot.

The outcome is thus: 5–4 that the Constitution protects birthright citizenship for the children of all immigrants. 6–3 that Trump's order is unlawful (because Kavanaugh says it violates a statute, NOT the 14th Amendment.) www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...

Hey folks, who'd like another Steam sale recommendation thread? Let's go! 1. Nine Sols Simply one of the best Metroidvanias ever. Takes inspiration from Hollow Knight with gorgeous hand drawn artstyle, mixes in the parry heavy combat of Sekiro, and Red Candle's exceptional narrative writing.

tom I do not have time for this rabbit hole that’s bizarrely important to me after knowing about it for 2 seconds

I think that because of social media website dynamics people may overestimate the efficacy of being extremely anti-social to local politicians

On one hand, I think it's really good that younger queer people have no idea just how bad it was to be growing up queer in the era when Pete Buttigieg was a kid, but good god people, at least listen to people who lived through the era about why it took time for queer kids to accept themselves.

Dan's article is a solid review of MLB's proposal. He mentioned how it does not address the first of MLB's publicly stated interests: balancing revenue among the teams. Even this publicly stated interest is different and not entirely related to its most publicly stated interest: improving 1/x

Living next to a giant data center isn’t that bad. Yes, it’s a huge black cube that blots out the sun. And I dislike having to enter it every day at 4pm and leave at 8pm with no memory of what transpired inside. It’s annoying that we have to call the cube “Father” or guards tase us. But otherwise
