Kinda forgot this place existed for over a week lmao

So the World Cup draw is this Friday, and with the whole thing on thin ice already, if the bald freak gives Trump the "peace award" it's just going to be two World Cups in a row I'll just gladly ignore and do something else while it's on.

In "things that might actually destroy the industry", last week's AI subs & dubs farce opens up a possibility that anything that isn't an highly anticipated adaptation or has a number in front would get something "cost conscious" that makes it *literally* unwatchable if you don't know the language.

double tapping is a war crime dammit, I was over the "kicking my ass" part.

It would be more dignified to use Beatles Rock Band. If you need to create a better looking version of their grainy live TV performances (which this isn't), hire a VFX crew and I'm sure they'll be able to do a quite good version of it and know what a fretboard is and the shape of a Rickenbacker.

Writing a self help book that argues that the best and most innovative thinking comes when you’re sat on the toilet. The medical establishment don’t want you to get haemorrhoids because they don’t want you to succeed at business

My very serious contributions to the anime community:

Thai Woman Found Alive In Coffin Moments Before Cremation https://theonion.com/thai-woman-found-alive-in-coffin-moments-before-cremation/

"Gyoda Fry" is a Gundam character and you can't convince me otherwise.

😒🤚 how would a horse/dog wear pants? 🙂👉 how would a kangaroo wear a bra/bikini top?

dunno what got to me, but it's really kicking my ass right now, not a part of me that doesn't feel heavy as fuuuuuck.

Days since calling the Les Paul "a wanker's guitar": 0

Only sex Cardigans I recognize

RPG where the villain instead of sending hordes of minions for you to level up says "nah, that one looks dangerous, I'll take care of this myself, you hide in the meantime" and the game is basically you murdering a lot of low-level enemies trying to hide, while escaping from a level 99 final boss.

Anytime I see "my phone needs to be waterproof because I keep dropping it in the toilet / sink/ pool / Trevi fountain" I start to understand why TV Shop ads have those clumsy people struggling with basic chores, like being careful with their tiny pocket computer, because they really are out there.

Are you fucking kidding me it’s like we are living in a cartoon

When Keeping It Corporate Positivity Speak Goes Wrong

kinda feel that someone has to come up with a non-proprietary file format for vector images aimed at actual design work (not "for web") and a program that takes on CorelDraw and Illustrator because fuck me, SVG and Inkscape certainly isn't it.

People said it would be a long time before AI took any jobs but judging by the latest Grok update Kara Swisher will be out of work very soon

around halfway watching Rayearth:

aw fuck. one of the best in the UK to ever do it, first did one hell of an impressive rhythm section with Reni, then moved on to Primal Scream where he became the pulse of Vanishing Point / XTRMNTR / Evil Heat.

I was probably getting my first PC around this day 28 years ago. 260.000$ (adjusted, just under 2300€) got me a Pentium 166 (16MB RAM, 2MB S3 Trio, ESS Audiodrive soundcard, 1.6 GB HD, 24x CD Drive IIRC), 14" monitor, speakers, mouse and keyboard, software, and an HP 690C printer.

Watching Rayearth and everytime "escudo" comes up I make a joke you need to be portuguese and over 35 to appreciate.

Happy 40th birthday to Psychocandy by The Jesus and Mary Chain, which was released on this day in 1985

how to tell a movie from an anime had bigger budget: shots you think "I can make a gif that loops out of this" suddenly have a lot more moving parts and no you can't.

Saw that Labour poll in the morning, still thinking "No base, how low can you go" anytime my mind idles for 5 seconds. This is probably a job for @cassetteboy.bsky.social or something.

I see Der Starmer is back at proving it was never an exaggeration.

chat, is good when the replay of a goal starts with the team who allowed it is restarting the game after being scored on?

wrote something about squid-ink pasta, then obviously had to link to this because I'm just like that.

Make shaving more exciting using a trimmer with a battery that goes from 100 to 0 in under two minutes. Use it when you are just about to leave home for an extra thrill.

Well well well if it isnt the Blowjob Brothers

wtf

Something really really funny about the thumbnail to this video using the Pornhub colour scheme

This is just Manic Street Preachers around 1994.

it fuckem thunda

New reaction image:

Portuguese national team should replace the national anthem at the start of the game with this one tbh.

this dude helping his bro pick up his stick should be highlight of the night but our bloodthirsty sports media only feeds us conflict

Completely right, should have said they have a study that says the authors of such types or articles actually regret writing them and desires to be shot, and the Waffle SS in this place would even cheer and applaud.

It's hard to take the "watch more anime featuring adults" suggestion seriously when you have something like Awkward Senpai where you could put the characters in high school age, replace the office with a club and barely change any of the writing and get away with it because the stories are the same.

Noticed how in japanese whispering is 小声 (kogoe), literally "small voice".

Everyone on each new day a new indignity is pushed onto us:

29 long years have passed since I founded the emulation archive, Zophar's Domain, on 11.9.96. To this very day, the site still stands as a testament to an era that never actually disappeared but continues to live in the hearts of retrogamers all over the word. Emulation Forever!

Who up destroying they desktop?

"Like a Tarantino movie that references 60s and 70s film"

(menacingly) time to take out the trash

well, after deleting everything because it was not looking right three times, I finally did most of the reference animation I spent most day around. Kinda feel like going to sleep and not waking up.

just said someone living off his wife's family money is "too old to be an himbo, but not to be a ヒモ" so I guess this is another for the stack of bizarre things I insert into conversations nobody else gets.

this looks something for @strider-ms.bsky.social
