I am an old-fashioned football manager.

Normally, when you try to give a villain depth it involves giving them an understandable motivation of a tragic backstory to justify their actions. The DS9 writers laugh at such amateurs. For seven years they added layers of depth to Gul Dukat, and every time he looked more evil.

@remembrancewatch.bsky.social I have been up and down Southport Lord Street tonight, but haven't seen the #SouthportKnitfire anywhere. This is very #Disrespect.

Genuinely impressive to get almost 150 replies and over 50 quotes and have them all be negative. Keep on forensicing. (Also, just to keep up the streak, Labour suck).

I have inside information that this is the Your Party venue:

I am ready to play one of the worst games in history. You cannot stop me. You will fail.

Watching the documentaries in the Mortal Kombat Legacy Kollection and like 90% of those guys are definitely eggs. They’re girls now, good for them.

I hope Gremlins 3 finally answers the central mystery of the series - how long do you have to wait after midnight until it becomes safe to feed a Mogwai again?

Enemy Vehicles: Ambulance. Is this an IDF smiulator?

Musk: dissa sad day for da western civilization! Musk: [inhales ketamine] i choosa da wrong day to quit ketamine Musk: how coulda this getta worse Grok: it looks like voters across the country have rejected republicans Musk: [licking envelope] i choosa da wrong day to stop mailing my semen to women

They somehow made an award more meaningless than the Nobel Peace Prize.

This needs more attention: Zohran SPLIT the straights with Cuomo. ALL of his margin was from LGBTQ+ voters. Every Dem who ever said “we should abandon the transes” needs this shoved down their fucking throat with a ramrod.

Wow. In another huge upset, Mesmero, the Master of Mentalism, has been elected mayor of Chicago. Political pundits are shocked - he’s a first-time candidate who barely spent anything on advertising, and there wasn’t even an election scheduled for today

Keir Starmer is now desperately trying to figure out how to emulate Cuomo’s campaign.

"Democrats Deeply Worried About the Repercussions of Victory" could be the defining statement of our generation.

One other thing that's unusual about this election is that Mamdani really, really hated his political opponent and wanted him to lose. That's also incredibly rare on the left of American politics, if you think about it.

Dick Cheney won’t see your jokes, but your friends who orchestrated a destructive and illegal war based on lies and also shot a guy in the face will.

But if Dick Chaney is dead, who will the next Democrat nominee try to get approval from?

Genies are famously easy to trick into going back into their bottle. There are lots of stories about this.

New awareness campaign

This was published in 1989, being printed in a “real” newspaper was never proof of accuracy.

Dizzy (1987).

Orson Welles, Unicron from Transformers the Movie.

Ninja Gaiden 4 would be easier if you actually picked up the health powerups when they dropped instead of having to wait for a seemingly random length of time.

after leaking video of israeli soldiers sexually abusing palestinian prisoners and resigning her post, israel’s top military legal authority has gone missing, her vehicle found abandoned on a beach

I've been getting back into the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy series after many years, and the most relatable part is how everyday objects like doors and elevators have been imbued with artificial intelligence and it just makes them obnoxious and frustrating to use and everyone hates it.

The Nobel Peace Prize has always been even more worthless than the economics prize, but this is impressive.

The text on the information panel seems ominous.

This is how I’m going to look every time someone dislikes one of my posts.

Smile (2022).

I would never have read those people as MLK or the KKK if I hadn't read the statement. Also, MLK looks like the bad guy, and why are all his supporters white?

The only reason I doubt this is that it seems very unlikely Starmer will even run next election.

Has anyone from Bluesky ever actually understood a viral tweet? This is more incoherent than when they were replying “WAFFLES!” to any and all criticism.

I happened to be at my mum's house at hollowe'en, and I am doing my best Lurch impression at the trick or treaters. You raaaaanng?

One of the Ball X Pit characters has the gimmick that they play the game by themselves, and it’s like watching one of those deliberately infuriating mobile game ads where the player keeps doing obviously wrong things.

Really should have made that bet.

Labour are splitting the vote that is inherently owed to the Green party for some reason. As a Sensible Centrist™ it is with a heavy heart that I say they must stand down.

We had great spellcheck software for decades, but it was very important to replace it with stuff that has no idea how many R’s are in “strrrawrrbeyr” and also makes up stuff that has nothing to do with spelling.

"Very positive" doesn't even reach the dizzying heights of the Lizardman Constant.

Disney walked out on Doctor Who but Mickey Mouse is in the public domain. I'm just saying, RTD could burn some bridges gloriously here.

A federal judge has denied OpenAI's request to dismiss a copyright suit from George R. R. Martin, Ta-Nehisi Coates, John Grisham and other authors. The judge says that text generated by ChatGPT may infringe their copyrights.

lmao, the irony

The Democrats really are ideologically committed to picking the worst possible candidates then blaming everyone else. You have to vote for the person who loves genocide! Four years out the only choice is the transphobe who hates homeless people! Vote blue no matter the Nazi tattoo!

It is very clear that the Labour leadership hoped the bill would pass so they could do the thing they wanted to do and pretend Farage forced their hand.

Zohran Mamdani caught lying that he understood Plato’s allegory of the cave, yet when asked to explain it, he seemed to instead explain Baudrillard’s theory of Simulacra and Simulation where reality has been replaced by symbols and signs, which seems similar to Plato’s theory but is not the same

This is a bullet hell shooter, and I am Bullet Satan.
