i once knew a woman who got sexually aroused from working out she was always in great shape the bitch

It'd be funny if that guy actually DID teleport to the Waffle House and he was telling the truth and we all ragged on him forever about it, but someone out there has a teleporter gun and they're only using it to fuck with mid-level bureaucrats.

gonna make a Scottish fighter with the Protection fighting style he's the Scotch Guard

On Monday, big things happen in Shadow of the Demon Lord as we close in on the final stretch for the campaign. Grab it on @drivethrurpg.com!

March was busy! I finished SPL: In Space!, started a ton of modern gear, and continued the Horrorverse. There are 18 stock art pieces in this month's file! If you know anyone who needs stock at for their projects, they can sign up to my program for just $20 a month. www.patreon.com/jacobblackmon

Red Lobster: Fuck It, We Ball

ah man, i DID get my favorite bad movie wrong: Xanadu. the answer has to be Xanadu.

we're so unfair to dogs, i would be poorly behaved, too, if people kept giving me commands in a language i don't understand

When you want to commission art from an artist, it is important to know how to write an art brief, so that artist knows what you want and you know what the artist does and does not need. Fellow artist Rick Hershey has created a guideline for writing an art brief! Pass it around, fellow artists!

i'm still learning things about being a girl that women half my age take for granted i feel like i'll never catch up i know i'm a woman, but i feel like i'm bad at being one

chappel roan fires her publicist cause the publicist was in the Epstein Files and like magic, stories start appearing about how she's a raging bitch like magic, i tell you

A while back there was a GoFundMe for a trans lady in Turkey who had been hospitalized as a result of a hate crime. There were complications, and what little money was left was enough. www.gofundme.com/f/help-shira... If you have a couple of spare bucks, think about sending them Shira's way.

Today is the 10th annual International Fact-Checking Day. ... Or IS it?! Don't take my word for it. ... Seriously, don't. ... Please.

moggie and i had to stop using the laser pointer to play with our old cat, Calla, because she kept looking for it after we turned it off and we felt guilty in case you wanted to know what kind of people we are

tbh, i fear for the astronauts on this new moon mission i do not trust the chucklefucks of the current administration with their precious lives i fear for them and for the fate of this mission

favorite terrible movie, go Necessary Roughness

Saving this classic

Several years ago I tried to use ChatGPT for research. Could it give me a list of chapters in which certain characters appeared in Tolstoy's War and Peace. It could not. And when I told it it was wrong, it made up more chapters. I reread War and Peace to find what I needed for a short story.

i assume my buddy jacob is absolutely giddy about the new Masters of the Universe movie it seems poised to go much better than the, uh, last attempt

My proposed Sluggo solo feature has hit its first snag.

huns and mongols are steppe siblings

I share with Chris Claremont the tendency to ask a simple question about a character, although I ask it about a deity I'm creating. Claremont reportedly always asked, "Why can't this character be a woman?" I always ask, "Why can't this deity be trans?"

If I used AI on anything--especially something I was writing--I'm not sure I could look myself in the face in the mirror without looking away & feeling ashamed. It's cheating, not a short cut.

There is no form of human misery that someone has not figured out how to monetize.

i want to see Steve Carrell and @stephencolbert.bsky.social do Waiting for Godot

i was never religious growing up, but i did attend a fundie Xtian school from 7th grade through first two years of college. it was as weird as you might imagine, and moreso

make em laugh and then they won't ask uncomfortable follow-up questions

My colleague in biology at OU!

Fascism is not interesting. Fascists are not interesting. Take the shittiest little fifth grader you ever knew, and give him a machine gun. That's a fascist. Nothing impressive about it.

mog: we don't deserve dogs mog: we probably do deserve cats mog: i don't know what that says about us as a people

I may have mentioned this before, but it continues to tickle me. My mother-in-law (in her mid-80s) struggles with the they/them pronouns a bit. But she's trying hard! She regularly refers to me as "Morgan and them". Seriously, I love her so much.

"Community" was funny, but I stopped being able to watch it when it became clear they didn't actually know how a community college worked. I don't think that's petty. If you have a high concept for your work, you need to commit to that concept.

Hey, oldheads! Remember this guy? Subotai, from the 1982 John Milius-directed CONAN THE BARBARIAN? It turns out he's got such a resume that "Also acted in CONAN THE BARBARIAN" is only in the fourth or fifth paragraph of his obituary. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gerry_L...

What do you think this dressing room was like

The American Century, 1941-2026, died last night in its sleep. Nobody yet misses it. www.reuters.com/world/china/...

and now TV Tropes is riddled with shitty virus-carrying ads, thanks enshittification

everyone, please, they say they "don't want politics in media" the same way they say they "don't want to use pronouns." they are not using the word to mean the word. you can try to point out that there's politics in the media they like/make, but they don't mean "politics" they mean "freaks"

Accurate. The world doesn't know the extent to which all of academia is propped up by tragically underpaid and overqualified labor.

yes, a nation founded on slavery, expanded by genocide, one of the greatest war imperialist warmongers the world has ever known, is "abandoning" morality that is precisely what's happening

The singular "they" has been around longer than English has had codified grammar, so really, anyone who fumes about it can go fuck themself www.oed.com/discover/a-b...

Skills are great but it's important that students actually know things.

The world is stupid, but I just watched a squirrel break into a car in the parking lot below me, steal a package of crackers, and escape to a nearby tree. So at least somebody is winning.

It's been 7 weeks since I updated my medical debt GoFundMe. tl;dr - medical debt sucks, fuck cancer, I'm managing, times are tough all over. www.gofundme.com/manage/help-...
