I looked at harem isekai and said... these cishet male protagonists are scum. What this genre needs is sapphic polyamory. The characters can be messy trash fires. But not rapey male wish fulfillment fantasies. And so Moonlight Hearts was Born! www.patreon.com/ddwardiswrit...

i have some possibly startling news about Every Night Lords Player

Fine I’ll post it again

The best part of the wiki page for 30 under 30 is titled "Forbes-to-fraud pipeline" and lists all the people given that title are in jail or other large scandals, I’ll give them they are good at highlight failures before it happens. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forbes_...

sorry to this guy but this is unfortunately extremely funny to me

Boycott Target because their AI might randomly and falsely accuse you of theft and then have you arrested and upend your life.

Fucked up story, and also note how many people would lose jobs and get totally fucked if they can’t get $1600 together to get out of jail.

reading Longshot genuinely felt like reading one of those midcentury lesbian pulp novels where for legal reasons one of them had to die in the last three pages

it's real!!! www.moddb.com/mods/the-lay...

thinking, once more, of the guy (or gal) who spend years of their life making the mod for deus ex where you can play as a woman, down to having a voice actor re-record dialog and editing all the in game dialogue so the pronouns are correct

heartwarming video of astronaut Christina Koch greeting her dog for the first time after returning from space. the pup can be seen snarling, back arched, before scampering to its word buttons and pressing "IMPOSTOR" repeatedly, then "FALSE. SKIN. FALSE. SKIN." several times

As far as historic "ideas that sound ridiculous on paper and are incredible in execution" making Mary Jane Venom is PRETTY HIGH on that list

Péter Magyar, who unseated Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán Sunday in a landslide, shared a bombshell with reporters that the outgoing leader had diverted taxpayer funds to bankroll the American Conservative Political Action Conference. trib.al/ct7GGV3

Smart move to have the super handsome reporter conduct this interview, tbh

Imagine dedicating your life to incel looksmaxxing so much that you've smashed yourself in the face with a hammer only to have a regular reporter from 60 Minutes Australia completely outmog you. (Clavicular eventually walked off the interview)

look, sometimes you witness the glorious awe of traveling to the Moon and back, sometimes you get transfixed by a guy muttering “oooh, toilet,” humanity contains multitudes I guess

another thing I like about Warhammer 40k is that literally every single "hard decision make to save humanity" that the Imperium makes just makes everything worse

The Bechdel Test refers to whether or not your work can be successfully adapted into a hit musical

I think this is true, but I think a bigger part is that he's used to talking to influencers looking for *content*, not being interviewed by people who will actually ask questions. He's used to performing for an audience that just accepts it as given, and that illusion breaks when you poke at it.

Why is the sky blue? Watch the latest What If? video in collaboration with @minuteearth.bsky.social! youtube.com/shorts/oLoxd...

www.youtube.com/watch?v=fz_l... I loved these types of video stores. This was the absolute best.

Just to give a sense of the insane scale of billions of dollars…MacKenzie Scott got about $38 billion after divorcing Bezos in 2019. She has become the world’s most generous philanthropist, giving away over $19 billion…and she’s currently wealthier than she started. Just. Tax. Them.

this is one of the most iconic moments in super bowl halftime history

working out at the gym and “not like us” just came on and everyone is nodding their head to it and I am reminded once again that nobody has ever lost a rap beef as hard as Drake other than people who were actually shot and killed

Said it before: we need to make that Cambridge computer scientist the prime minister

Those rules exist for reasons. Until you understand those reasons, you don't have the competence to deviate from them - because, like, you know what you're trying to get to.

Baseball is the most fighting games sport. There's literally a hit box

warhammer is always 100% at its best when you can glimpse the free hand that was given to a queer lit student who's exclusively read a forgotten poet for five years and was raised on british media and thatcherist austerity, and always at its worst when you have to be reminded the rich suits exist

Snow White and the Seven Dwarf Fortresses

WaPo website replaced search with AI and it's going great

Few joys on earth greater than walking around the front desk to see the rabbit someone has brought in is a Flemish giant

Today is the 30th anniversary of Steamed Hams!

i'd never seen this before, absolute GOLD www.youtube.com/watch?v=ftU5...

“What the fuck is a samoflange” is possibly the funniest bit of scifi ever

Saying this over and over again in a progressively more Australian accent

"All eight pages showed up completely penciled and inked and Wolverine was stark naked throughout the entire eight pages, full frontal and rear view. “And I called up Sam and I said, ‘Sam, this is very nice. And Wolverine has a lot to be proud of. But it's comic books, and we can't print this.’"

one of the all-time greats

i agree. ducks ARE a good shape

Just the fact that you can spacewalk (well, fly) around the station and the entirety of its internal locations match up to its scale, entrances, etc is INCREDIBLE. A tiny detail while simultaneously being a stunning achievement. Just absolutely breathtaking.

Prey 2017 is one of the best games ever (from a year that gave us a stunning number of all-timer video games, it's understandable a lot folks missed it), certainly one of the best immersive sims ever, and the location it inhabits (Talos I) is a PLACE in a way few other video game scan achieve

/stares in the adventures of Tom Turbo, the intelligent crime-solving bike equipped with a working lie detector, an ice cream machine and a plot-powered toilet brush, who shoots lasers from his nose, can emit sleeping gas and travels through time. Oh, and the two children who built him, of course./

AND THEY SIT AT THE BAR AND PUT CHEESE IN MY JAR AND SAY MAN WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE

It’s profoundly ignorant to suggest that the Pope should be fighting crime on behalf of the Catholic Church. Anyone who was remotely familiar with Roman Catholicism would know that that’s what Daredevil is for

GENTLEMEN! BEHOLD!!!

we all live in a parrot submarine

Wishing a happy Brian’s Hat Day to all who celebrate.
