YES. Also, Tad Williams!

Those guys were far TOO "friendly."

It's crazy that there were a gang of them! Was it like, a fad or a thing that became a dare to an unstable, easily suggestible subculture of dirtbags?

We were doomed from the early poor decision to appoint the milquetoast Garland.

Sleepover at my grandma's house with my cousin, trading POWER-MAN & IRONFIST SHANG-CHI comics & lying in the bunkbeds, listening to Dr. Demento on the radio (106.9, WCCC out of Hartford) at night, cracking up at "Fish Heads" by Barnes & Barnes & hoping to hear a new Weird Al song is a golden memory

Oscar Pistorius is Goody Twoshoes' arch nemesis: Baddie Oneshoe

I block on sight, but I assumed that they got better at auto-banning whatever bot-farm makes them?

Bluesky Disrupted by Sophisticated DDoS Attack Bluesky reported service outages last week due to a distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack aimed at its systems.

For the people saying that the outages were about "vibe coding" with AI... y'all are dumb.

And then you can have murmuration-style functions where they can temporarily interlock or work in concert with one another to fulfill specific tasks or circumvent some given obstacle or solve a specific problem, then go back to being little bug guys.

EXACTLY. Bug-and-snake style robots make a ton more sense for so many applications.

Fuck you.

Fuck you.

"When you come at the Eastern Seaboard, you best not miss."

Time to sit and read a book is never wasted time.

To be blunt, I think the fundamental disconnect here is that when leftists and liberals (to include conservative liberals) say 'western civilization,' they are referring to a complex cultural and intellectual tradition with fuzzy boundaries.

When MAGA says it, they are misspelling 'the white race.'

I am partial to MAN OF LA MANCHA. It's funny, it can make you cry (if done correctly) and it has something grand to say about life and love and art and the beautiful delusion of it all. I saw Robert Goulet, of all people, later in his life, in the role & it was astonishingly moving.

YES. This needs to be a topic in the primaries and a campaign point.

Think of the delightful video footage it will generate!

For Mork so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

I still have functioning ZIP & JAZ drives!

I love these two Tims, Onion & Heidecker. Sandy Hook is the next town over from me; my kids swam in meets against the older siblings of the murdered kids.

Ben, you are the definition of a mensch.

It was amazing and weird and dangerous & to get up to and a marvel of daring thinking and unconventional ideas. After he was caught & his world spiraled, the flaws in the engineering saw the whole thing lose stability & break after 3 years. I feel like this is related.

There was an HBO doc about a charismatic bank robber who lived by his own rules & was a halfway dilletante genius & halfway an unstable asshole. With his bank robbing & drug money he built a wonderous tree home by hand, installing everything himself, as a self-taught architect...

I'm a leftie w/writing, scissors, fencing & archery, but swing a baseball and catch/throw as a rightie, and bowl as a rightie. Snowboading/skating & boxing, I'm naturally left-footed, but can switch without too much discomfort.

Also, I always felt like Wordsworth was a mediocre poet bolstered by a cool marketing-name for a poet.
