The cognitive tests are about the 25th Amendment, no? Which means they're waiting for him to fail one to enact, but then that means Vance gets the top spot, and he's worse than Trump. It's all moves and counter-moves to ensure that this administration stays in power. And so do the billionaires.

MPs joining Reform is like using a lint roller over clothing; it picks up all the unwanted crap in one place, then you bin it. Better for us to know where all the racist, right-wing morons are and who votes for them, rather than have them spread across and hide in every political party.

We're going to wake up one morning to find out that we're at war with the US. Most likely before the midterms.

Morning all

“Decomputing allows for not only a shift to less stuff in general but also to a focus on taking better care of what we already have.”

Awww baby Glen Powell was in Dark Knight Rises.

People should automatically lose all credibility as soon as they utter that some tech solution is "the future of [insert industry]" because they're either peddling it or don't understand how [insert industry] works in reality.

Stephen Miller is a Romulan. Pass it on.

And suddenly the constant exposition during the final season of Stranger Things makes perfect sense.

There’s some 900yrs between TNG and Starfleet Academy and a lot of the reaction that Star Trek fandom has is reminiscent of Alvin Toffler’s ‘Future Shock’ - the psychological state of individuals…and a personal perception of "too much change in too short a period of time".

This demonstrates a fundamental thing: Venture capitalists are trying to *replace the government* with their firms and startups, and run the government like a VC firm and its startups. DOGE was just the first breach. THOUSANDS of startups are attacking www.bizjournals.com/washington/n...

David Bowie was the anchor being in our branch of the multiverse. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

Never interrupt the enemy when he is making a mistake. China and Russia, sitting back with popcorn.

Burns' original painting had a dog in it which the art director evidently wasn't keen on.

Daft cat is enjoying the scritches so much he’s drooling lmao

Still one of the best Python sketches ever.

As much as the US needs to bin what’s sitting in the White House, the UK needs to throw out the trash occupying Parliament at the same time. I’m sure the rest of Europe are looking at some of the statements coming from ministers sucking up to the US and thinking “thank fuck they’re an island”.

Yeah, if this is even close to where things are heading then Scotland needs an independence referendum ASAP

once again this just reads like a horror story

The Mandalorian watching a Transformers movie. This is Michael Bay.

It's a shame Fighting Fantasy never capitalised on its success in the same way. The British equivalent to D&D with its own darker fantasy style and 40+ year heritage would have been huge.

Mandalorian downloads Grindr. This is the gay.

The question for me about Starfleet Academy is whether Trek fandom will get this cancelled after the 1st season, as Star Wars fandom did for The Acolyte. Review bombing, toxic behaviour mirrors what happened before. Regardless of the show, every 1st season sucks as it finds its feet and audience.

Bring back Armus for Starfleet Academy, or even make an oily a cadet, that could be interesting in itself.

Woke up this morning thinking about how I could turn the MMO project I conceived a few years ago into a space-fantasy TTRPG instead, since everything could work with a few tweaks and a fresher story hook. Rules will be a big thing to work out, maybe GURPS, not sure it could be Lite though. Hmm.

If people still on x used that there grok to "undress" the masked faces of ice goons, i imagine it'd be taken down a heck of a lot quicker

What’s your sound settings in video games? Like, what do you usually set the individual Master, Music, Effects, Dialogue etc at? And why are you a serial killer if you leave them at odd numbers?

this kinda hit me because I think every game developer, every comic artist, any creative person who makes a thing but puts their foot down ethically, has heard this exact fucking line before

Watching The Dark Knight, it’s been years. Hasn’t lost any of its edge. Just on another level.

We’re fat shaming planets now.

human artists, use only one piece to convince people to follow you

“They’ve made Star Trek woke” My dude….

We experienced a truly incredible moment at the aquarium when this octopus decided to be a total jerk to its tankmate.

Started thinking how you could adapt somethings like Westworld, Sliders, Dark Matter, Bioshock into a ttRPG. The idea of multiple worlds, potentially with slight rule changes within a single campaign as the characters move through them, is driving me nuts.

Really surprised that #Bioshock never made it to become an official TTRPG. Those settings and the plasmid system are ripe for it. Would you kindly let me use the IP?

Can someone let me know if 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple is a shaky iPhone camera job, or did they use a steadicam for filming this time?

Loved running SETI@home on my PC at the time! You could run similar on a PS3 too back then. I think EVE Online also has an ongoing citizen science research project, too.
