I’m gonna need to break it up into chunks but man, I can’t say I was expecting Gender Essentialist Stitch. (No, I’m not kidding.)

This is some absolutely dogshit advice from Slate’s Care & Feeding article. It goes back and forth between insincerely comforting the Dad for being upset that his wife destroyed a vintage gift he gave to his son and scolding him for being upset that she destroyed a board game.

I’ve read a bunch of reviews of Wicked: For Good that reveal major spoilers, but not a single one seems to have noted an interesting cinematic parallel. At one point, the despot Wizard bounces a globe around like a balloon, just like Charlie Chaplin’s The Great Dictator. youtu.be/-jj-PaqFrBc?...

A friend of mine is looking for the Sailor Moon print. If anybody is selling this or knows where one might be available can you let me know? Matte preferred but glossy if it's all we can find.🥹 It was lost in a move which is very sad.

I don’t know how your agency managed to survive the current administration with your dignity and ongoing mission intact, but I appreciate your messaging and salute you.

The SEGA Saturn will have very cool RPGs and Shmups with names like "Malfeasance Veiler" or "Lunar Stockholm" on one end and very middling platformers like "Slungo's Boyle", a 3D slog people swear by only because they remember renting it as a child multiple times to beat it

i documented the progression of tofu's sleepy smushface over the course of an hour last night

Here's a bodega cat, on the job.

Our first Sega Genesis edition of "Games From a Hat" is up now on YouTube! Tune in for bad behavior in a Busytown, the misadventures of BAD and ASS, and @spacequeenemily.bsky.social's incredible impressions of Disney characters. youtu.be/b2feVOvdaAQ

Behold, a huntress keeping her skills up #cats

It's wild that FFX-2 is *below* 50% female dialogue!

The proportion of female to male dialogue in Final Fantasy. #advx25

Say cheese Dreamies, Sue!

You will never guess what this is in reference to.

They’re trying to hold my man back from greatness

I have been looking at Black Friday sales for a week but I do not actually need anything so instead I closed all those tabs and bought a Polaroid for a foster kid in Florida who uses photography to deal with big feelings. Perhaps you would like to do the same for one of the kids at the link below?

It's that time of year

I will never forget the point where they shoot the driver and the Caddilac just goes APESHIT. I can still hear pipes laughing.

This was briefly mentioned on Law & Order. "What's JFK reloaded?" The murderer tried to blame it on video games, but someone at the NSA was listening to the victim's conversation. Gave the audio to the cops, but said said they can't use it as evidence, and took it back. Forgot how the episode ended.

Amazing incorrect lyrics on the karaoke machine yesterday

Me and @battlehork.bsky.social if I were blonde

This is the closest humans have gotten to achieving the Star Trek replicator

the reason 101 dalmations looks like that is because disney incorporated xerography (ie early photocopying technology) into the animation process. rough pencils (by mostly male animators) were copied onto the cels so that disney could fire the (mostly female) inkers. remember that art can lie to you

Wizard of Oz deserves its status as a classic piece of cinema but it's also so wild that every story from its production is like, "The producers decided to use face paint that was laced with benzos and ground up copper which kept the actor from being able to breathe during filming"

WELCOME…TO CASTLE SEXFUCK, WHERE PLEASURE DWELLS AND NOTHING IS FORBIDDEN. FEEL FREE TO THROW YOUR COAT ON THE BED THERE. I KNOW IT’S NOT EVEN THANKSGIVING YET BUT I PUT ARTHUR CHRISTMAS ON THE ROKU HAHA. I JUST LOVE THAT MOVIE. WE GOT A TAMALES CIRCLE GOING IN THE KITCHEN BTW. YOU LIKE CARCASSONNE?

Anyone else remember when the Freelance Astronauts played JFK Horse? “Okay, you gotta shoot off Jackie’s hat, but DON’T kill her!”

Here is a little void loaf for you all on this fine #Caturday.

Age 9. I’d never seen anything like them before.

The typo protection is so broken in SNES Family Feud that the real fun is improving comedy answers. So long as the letters that would spell your word are in the right order, it doesn't matter what's between them. So for example, if I'm trying to get SHOWER, I can write SHOot WaltER In The Face.

Just came back from Wicked: For Good and 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

KIRYU-CHAN! 🔪✨ #yakuza

I’m not going to read this article to protect my mental health, but as the mother of a stillborn child I urge you to tell every pregnant person you know not to do this. There is no pain like holding your own dead baby, and I would do just about anything to make this pain rarer than it already is.

This is also part of why they want AI so bad, btw. To turn all current and former stars into immortal slaves, forcing them to say whatever propaganda they wish, all while never having to pay another human to do art ever again. This sort of shit is the stopgap.

Stop scrolling through whatever horrible nonsense is dominating your feed and instead admire my cat

My favorite piece of content today.

This is a production. 10/10 😭😭😭 THE LEAVES 🍂 🤣🤣🤣🤣

I was inspired

this is just beavis

10/10 commendt. Noe notes.

Oh right, Marvin likes to rearrange the tree skirt because under the tree is a fort. This is probably as nice as it'll be all season.

hey guys i made a seasonal meme

LRP: Every time I’m asked what I do for work (and I don’t feel like explaining about being disabled) I enter a panicky fugue state. “Writer” always invites further elaboration. Am I a blogger? Archivist? Essayist? Slacktivist? What the hell is it that I do?

oh word?

Hell yeah @rianjohnson.bsky.social (reposting with alt text)

Here is a little void loaf for you all on this fine #Caturday.

I'll just leave these here

sorry the perspective in this photo of Kalypso is sending me 😂

Hey remember a little while ago I was cautioning people about sharing that “Crunchyroll is partnering with Israel!” Story? Yea here’s everything you could ever want to know about Crunchyroll and their subtitles, including confirmation the software was used (but without the silly Israel framing.)
