In my defense, I’ve really wanted to play this game AND the PS5 digital-only edition is on sale for Black Friday for $399. So…

This was too easy. I grew up with VHS in the early 90s, Framed. C’mon now. Framed #1352 🎥 🟩 ⬛ ⬛ ⬛ ⬛ ⬛ framed.wtf

America putting most of its eggs in the generative AI basket, China going hard into green tech. When history looks back on this period, someone is going to look awfully stupid.

Discworld QOTD, from Guards! Guards!

Disaster has been avoided!! I was so sure I’d set my alarm so I’d be up at 9am when the campground reservation system opened for Memorial Day weekend, but apparently I did not so I overslept by 2hrs 🫠🫠🫠 BUT the site I wanted was still available!!! 🎉🎉🎉 So I got a little more sleep AND my campsite!

everyone who spent the 90s laboriously and lovingly making mixtapes just dissolved into ancient dust

Just so it's clear. It's not allowing AI because it's trying to create a clean dataset for training AI. It's not because any of the involved parties actually care about human created art. Demons can lie to you. You have to rebuke them categorically, rather than fold when they say the right words.

It remains very fun that the guy from the O.C. and Gotham became one of the biggest and most clearly spoken critics of crypto and is just chilling in the replies dropping the same gifs we would

just saw a post so good I have to put it here too

Notice how adding water is bad. Follow the instructions that come with your turkey fryer. Use your turkey fryer away from your home. Have a working fire extinguisher.

This never happens in politics and too rarely happens in life.

Hal hadn’t survived three Thanksgivings by being stupid.

What happens in the video game world often happens in the wider world later - which is why anyone interested in the impact of AI should be looking at what's happening in games right now. We're seeing lines being drawn about what is and isn't culturally acceptable www.theguardian.com/games/2025/n...

Pajamas are fine. I gotta admit that some people these days get closer to gym/swimwear or lingerie, tho, and I do find that mildly inappropriate. Like, if I am on an airplane I do not want to inadvertently touch the skin of another human being unless said skin is on their arm or *maybe* lower leg.

I’m howling.

This. Any person who lives in an area with actual winter will tell you this. You grow up and have stories of rescuing others and being rescued, from ditches, ice ruts in the road, dead batteries, snow mountains piled on your car. Total strangers will come up and help cause we’re all in it together.

Mechanic [sliding out from under Optimus Prime]: I think I see what the issue is. This truck is also a big guy somehow

Epithets can be both useful and acceptable if the characteristics being highlighted are relevant to the situation. Ex: “the younger man” might be used to emphasize one character’s relative inexperience. But just use names or pronouns unless the descriptor is *telling* the reader something relevant.

Hey. Did anyone here attend the International Star Trek Convention in Washington, DC, January 1-4, 1976, or know one of its organizers? An editor at the excellent @fanlore.org site is looking for info on the con.

"Things happen" sometimes, like when you walk into an embassy to apply for your marriage license while your bride-to-be waits outside, but then you get bonesawed to pieces for having exercised freedom of speech as an US-based journalist and have to be carried out in a series of suitcases.

Heads up for any USians still using TT for their taxes

This might be an unpopular opinion but what this baby seal is doing is very special to me, personally.

My mother did not understand my obsession with this parcel, but some of you will grasp that I have been bested by a True Master of the wrapping craft 😱

I have so much stuff to put away and organize, but I might just sit here and write smutty fanfic instead… >.>

How often do I have to keep reposting this strip? #cloudflare

Now this is some nostalgia right here

You olds don't need to hear this, but to you youngbloods out there, I come to you from the future: when the news begins talking about ways to save money for the holidays, rather than getting you hyped to drown in debt buying shit, that means shit is WAY FUCKING WORSE than they are letting on.

I've watched enough theme park accident documentaries to think this is not far off.

I am so confused why this is still going around. If you requested a password reset, this is the official email to change your password. If you didn’t request a password reset, you delete the email. Which is exactly what it says to do in the email. 🤨

Here's the problem

authors you have the chance to do the funniest thing right now

What perfect album came out the year you turned 16? “Don’t Give Away Your Personal Identifying Information on the Internet” by Stop Doing These Memes. Truly a classic. 😌

Because we are crazy people who were willing to drive a stupid number of hours, I am now HOME in Michigan and ready to pass out in my own bed. Yay!!! I bribed the cats with wet food so I think they’ve forgiven me for abandoning them for so long. 😅

with Marjorie Taylor Greene being kind of a whack job and magic the gathering rolling every IP it can into the game, it’s taking longer and longer to decipher which one posts about “MTG” are actually referencing lately

I am now in Arkadelphia waiting for pizza before heading to our hotel for the night, so I will take these 8 minutes to share the results of two days of class at EGA National Seminar! 😁

For the Aussies, the zoologists and the architects out there. 💩🧊🧪 By @chazhutton.com

Excellent new needleminder acquisition 😁🐉

Brad Lander, the New York City comptroller, campaigned with Zohran Mamdani and once hoped to join him in City Hall. Now he is eying a congressional seat, with Mamdani's support. nyti.ms/3LZXcn4

Those claiming Dems should retreat on racial justice aren't hard-headed realists, they're pushing against the electoral tide rather than leaning into it. The story of Gen Z isn't about racist backlash or red-pilled young men. It's the most racially progressive generation in American history. 🧵

I say it over and over again: when you have that much money, you want to live where you want to live and you are simply not going to relocate because of marginal tax rates Alan Dershowitz will never leave Martha’s Vineyard and they won’t even sell him a pierogi

And we knew this. This wasn't speculation. We studied it, we had the talking points. We trained volunteers to explain this to people. It's not a surprise. Rich people don't flee places with good quality of life when we increase the quality of life. They might try to cheat us, but they don't leave.

When I encounter myself as a different colored cursor because I have the Google Doc open in two tabs

companies not doing transparent consoles anymore is a crime

National Seminar next year is in Orlando, which means my dream of visiting Nintendo World may become a reality after all! 😍

BLANCHE: Apparently wealthy men wrote to complain about how hard it is to seduce teenage girls. I also had good taste at a tender age. DOROTHY: Men are lizards. ROSE: We had a teacher like that in St Olaf. Mister Lindberg. He had to leave after he fell down the same flight of stairs six times.
