Because straight up calling you shitheads "Nazis" is having unintended positive effects on your morale.

A guy we know pitched a story to a mag about former skateboarders going back to their old haunt in middle age. My BIL(52)went with him as part of the story. BIL is now back home with a broken ankle and the writer is home with a broken vertebrae. The only possible way the story could have gone.

Hey friends, I have a bit of an odd ask. This is more aimed at my ttrpg indie folks who are a bit larger than a one person operation. Do you need help with accounting? My partner is striking out on her own as a small business accountant and I know that kickstarter and such can be a real pain

Ugh. fine. I'll do it.

what the actual fuck is going on with this loser fuck opposition party

I cannot stress enough how much anyone who complains about the government spending money to give new parents free diapers should never know one single moment of peace

I would call this ghoulish, but I don't even think ghouls would demonstrate this low a level of respect for the dead.

For fucks sake JUST RETIRE ALREADY. go spend what remains of your extraordinarily privileged life with friends and family, or move to the villages and have a heart attack during a massive wrinkled orgy, just go live your goddamn lives and let someone with working knees and hips take the office.

"Even *I* can't believe how much we're getting away with!"

Has the Navy tried holding a bake sale?

bluesky — i am talking to you, all of you — need to internalize this and you need to tell everyone you know this. shampoo more expensive? republicans. burgers more expensive? republicans. beer more expensive? republicans.

I am so sorry, ma’am, but we lost your son. Surgery was going fine but we decided to let RFK Jr. futz around a little on his insides with a robot. He was eating squash at the time.

Every time I teach the MOVE bombing, students are shocked. And when I teach the aftermath involving an anthropologist who hoarded some of the remains and used them as teaching tools, they are even more shocked. And I teach in Pennsylvania. Even some students from Philly are unaware of this history

Jello Biafra and Mojo Nixon were correct about what should be done with Nashville.

Finally playing Alan Wake 2, (not very far yet, just got to the nursing home) and I think Ilmo Koskela might be the perfect example of "the guy who *thinks* he's 'the brains of the operation' only because he's somehow the smartest guy in the room."

Who's job is it to put him in the special harness so he can sleep on the job without falling forward onto the desk?

All my homies love Bossk.

If we're gonna crush them, crush them like Giles Corey.

My favorite mother’s day cartoon from the stupendous @rosemarymosco.com

My most sincerely held belief is that if more anti-social assholes got their shit rocked every time they tried to pull stunts like this, the world would be a better place

told my sons it was bedtime and they said "we're gonna hide from bedtime!" and i said "do you know where the best hiding place is? in your beds, bedtime will never find you there" and i'll be goddamned but that actually worked. they're hiding from bedtime under the covers in bed

One of my sister’s goats just delivered her first of two babies! This guy is Han Solo and he’s the cutest thing I have ever seen. Lookit those ears!

Marcomentum is the name of a sinister divination wizard with nefarious goals that the party may either intentionally befoul or accidentally advance. A good tier 2 villain.

The extremely rare catcopus.

Some of the bands are a bit derivative but that's still a harsh indictment of an entire genre

im not voting for anybody that doesnt have the balls to throw this skin tag in a dungeon

What happens when you combine classic shoot 'em ups with tabletop gaming? Black Hole Era lets you evolve from basic gunship to cosmic dreadnought in a single session, with every defeated enemy adding to your arsenal! #TTRPG solsroles.itch.io/bl...

You know what would be fun? Trying Gunpointing's simple class-less character creation that uses Feats and its level-up system modeled after video game achievements! It's free! benjamingray.itch.io/gunpointing

Modern technology could learn from older stuff that does what it's supposed to and doesn't bother you. My toilet just works and never sends me emails like "Good news! Flush® is now Floosh®"

Not sure if I'm absolutely goated at Skate Story, or if there are just a lot of quitters who can't handle the excellent vibes, tight gameplay, and eating the moon. I'm about 5 hours in, and have loved every second of it. Extremely high recommendation for skateboard-game enjoyers.

"We're not political actors! We're political *STOOGES*!"

Every time my cat jumps at a toy, it looks like some unseen being is throwing her at something. It's uncanny.

Marco Rubio, like any small, easily-frightened lapdog, is unfamiliar with and deeply confused by The Mirror.

The first Asian American mayor of NYC recently rode 40 miles on a bike across the five boroughs wearing a suit and tie and is skipping the Met Gala and instead using his platform to celebrate union leaders and immigrant rights activists in the fashion industry. Nice.

Secret Service shot a kid today

NASA just dropped more than 12,000 photos from the Artemis II mission. It'll take me a few days to go through them all, but so far it's one stunner after another. Link: eol.jsc.nasa.gov/SearchPhotos... Credit: NASA/Artemis II Crew (h/t @jonostrower.com)

Okay, so, years ago I was chatting with my writer's group and we all agreed that we would really like a sequel to LABYRINTH. "But who is out there with the same androgynous sex god energy as David Bowie?" I asked. "Janelle Monae," @kellybarnhill.bsky.social said. So yeah that's my pick.

Kinda burying the lead here, NPR

The ONE goddamn day that we get the chance to sleep in, that one glorious day where nobody needs to be at work at 6 am, and THE FUCKING CAT JUST STARTS SCREAMING FOR NO REASON around 5:30. My next pet will be a fish.

update

It's either gonna be the Oingo Boingo skull or the Jinro soju frog, neither one says too much about my decision-making skills in dramatically different categories.

I've known exactly one guy in my 40-odd years of knowing guys who "had a Nazi phase", and him telling me that was the last time I ever talked to him.

if the bassist looks like this you're gonna die in that pit

Me in 1991, watching “Darmok”: Communicating by allusion and literary reference? Ridiculous. Wouldn’t work. Me 35 years later: [communicates 50% by meme]
