Climate scientists will recognize this playbook. Controversialize science that isn’t controversial by platforming a small group of “skeptics” who generally have little to no expertise in the subject, in order to delay necessary action at the price of countless lives.

Princess Daisy. There's a reason Bowser never messes with Sarasaland.

A platypus? PERRY THE PLATYPUS!

Read the damn room, Mr. Met.

I'd rather not sit at the table serving literal shit.

I *wish* the Democrats would be even a quarter as proactive as Johnson describes here.

The 2000 Year Old Man is turning 100. Mel Brooks on Sunday will celebrate his centennial birthday. May the Schwartz continue to be with him!

I'm going to be in Ann Arbor for a few days starting Sunday for the Junior Olympics. Anyone have suggestions as to what to do when not watching kids do synchronized swimming?

If this makes you chuckle, schedule a colonoscopy I know I will

You've played on your last ground, Marcy.

I'm going to miss all the visitors when the World Cup is over. I almost want to sponsor visitors; it's been so wholesome despite all the obstacles our government has put in their way.

As storage and RAM prices skyrocket and make powerful PCs and consoles feel increasingly out of reach, there's only one real option: Everyone go back to 2D

can’t believe a narcissist is being so publicly humiliated by a reflecting pool

If your game isn't on a physical disk/cartridge then I don't want it. REMEMBER! IF IT'S DIGITAL YOU DON'T OWN IT.

Laura Linney in The Truman Show. I love the movie, and she's good in most things, but she's so blatantly artificial that I feel like she should have ruined the central ruse in-universe ages ago.

There is this somewhat absurd orange creamsicle cake I make with Grand Marnier and Navan that kicks so much ass. It's a bit expensive and time-consuming to make, but I love it.

Yesterday: Raven83: You should thank me, Dad, because I'm the reason you're celebrated today. Me: Yes, thank you. But let's not forget Mom, she played a big part on me being celebrated too. Raven83, Mrs. Footsteps: *stares*

Appropriately, the Street Fighter subreddit doesn't pull punches.

“I told him it sounds like he’s just feeding Prime Ministers to Larry and he just started crying.”

Look out, ninja attack!

My wife *still* loves to make fun of the fact that I enjoy every Rihanna song I've heard.

When a news story includes claims by Trump that are unverified, it should run with a logo reading, ”He’s probably lying.”

Trying to think if I know this driver.

Muppet Finnegan's Wake. Just fully embrace the weird.

there is no algae in the reflection pool in ba sing se

Scotland was here.

I'm starting to suspect that nobody can tell when Trump shits himself because everyone around him has turned into fart machines, and none of them want to admit when they've ripped one.

How do you publish this article without noting that it's a violation of the constitution. What is the goddamn point of you.

I got a blind box featuring Steel-type Pokémon, and I got a pretty sweet one.

This is probably fairly common knowledge, but for anyone who doesn't know: If a friend messages you with this script (it's almost always nearly verbatim this exact phrasing and order of messages), your friend's Discord has been hacked and stolen. I've seen this twice before, always the same M.O.

Know what TV show actually wouldn’t get made today? The Twilight Zone. Half of these fuckin’ episodes are about fascism.

Are smart glasses audio-enabled? I need to know if QR code Rickrolling works.

my god, it's real

What, medical transcription AI is prone to the same problems other uses of AI is? What an utterly predictable turn of events!

Said a joke so inappropriate that someone's brain short-circuited.

It’s a passion of mine. I’m not doing it for the money

well def one of those posts that's inadvertantly revealing about the person posting it!

“Trump spent 112 billion to close Hormuz and 300 billion to reopen it”

It's funny, most of my best video game feats are not boss-related. The one that felt the actual hardest... probably the fight against Henry in No More Heroes. Mirror match, setting sun, "We Are Finally Cowboys" blaring... damn, what a fight.

Forever Young by Alphaville - part of that very broad subgenre of "New Wave song lightly working through fears of nuclear annihilation." See also 99 Luftballoons.

Look, I'm not trying to be a spoilsport, but the last thing I want to read about is some Norwegian getting decapitated when their flag cape gets caught in the escalator at South Station. Do not put Cape Guy backwards on point on the escalator.

Carlisle still makes these, you know. Sure, no logo, but they have, like, 8 colors, and they're not that expensive. I got, like, 5 dozen for $50.

Look, the whole thread has so many great "so cursed, it's funny" moments, but this is the one for me. This is going to haunt my memories in a way horror writers only wish they could equal.

SCOOP: So remember Dialog, Peter Thiel's private society that doesn't have a public website and no public list of members? I (along with a number of other journalists) have just been tipped off that embedded in the code of their closed off website there IS what seems to be a list of some members.

when I got laid off from Vice, I later found out that members of the c-suite had awarded themselves bonuses that were higher than my annual salary. I hope that answers your question.
