Man this is bullshit. I would be furious. I'm simultaneously glad I got my ceremony done during the Biden admin, and embarrassed at what America has become. What a damn shame.

A meme describing the difference between "sneak peek" and "sneak peak". The top panel features a man looking at a movie poster with the definition "Sneak peek: an opportunity to see something before it is officially available". The bottom panel features a man walking across a field, with a mountain range in the background. One of the mountains has a pair of eyes an appears to be tracking the man's movements. The caption reads "Sneak peak: A sly, crafty mountain".

Reminds me of this classic:

Ask them if they were working at CrowdStrike on July 19, 2024, lol.

You... had a lifelong dream of licking Clippy?

I suppose congratulations are in order, lol!

A screenshot of the old ZNES Graphical User Interface. The brown color window reads "ZSNES GUI V0.18". Just below, overlaid in a blue small window, several options (LOAD, RESET, CONFIG, CHEAT, QUIT) can be seen.

What's funny is that to me the interface you're showing is the "new" ZSNES GUI. I was used to the command line version and then the one below.

Mega Man 2 is garbage. It plays like ass, it's completely unbalanced and just awful. It's a great stepping stone to the true masterpiece (MM4), I really don't understand the obsession.

Also TMNTAG is mid at best, Manhattan Project is vastly superior.

Support the trans/queer scene. They're fun.

What a wonderful Friday, my friends.

Anakin and Padmé 4-panel meme. Anakin says "you let Florina die" then Padmé affirms "I'll get her back later" and then asks the question "I'll get her back later, right?" to Anakin's impassive expression

REMEMBER: All the "Don't use em-dashes" "don't use rule of three" advice because it makes your writing "look like AI" is because they stole actual writers work, and their "predict the next thing" stuff just simulates what WE FUCKING DO. Keep writing well. Use every style and trick you have. Fuck AI.

Remember that today is about celebrating a bunch of people who decided they've had enough of a tyrant telling them what was what and then did something about it.

You can say "there's nothing to celebrate" or you can get up and take your country back.

Happy 4th of July. Pew pew.

Drafting in Magic Arena is super fun, especially those games where you put 15 lands in your 40-card limited deck and draw 12 of those lands from the top 15 cards of your deck.

I think the PATRIOT Act just... Kind of lets you do whatever as long as you say "I think Y'all Qaeda is a domestic terrorist org"

I think I'll be quite alright.

A close-up of a champagne flute. In it, a visible "Heroes of the Storm" logo and the date June 2, 2015.

They grow up so fast. Has it really been 10 years already?

Well Ocelot wasn't lying. You are, in fact "pretty good"!

Statement from Tristan Kern de Gonzales Husband of Jonathan Joss My husband Jonathan Joss and I were involved in a shooting while checking the mail at the site of our former home. That home was burned down after over two years of threats from people in the area who repeatedly told us they would set it on fire. We reported these threats to law enforcement multiple times and nothing was done. Throughout that time we were harassed regularly by individuals who made it clear they did not accept our relationship. Much of the harassment was openly homophobic. When we returned to the site to check our mail we discovered the skull of one of our dogs and its harness placed in clear view. This caused both of us severe emotional distress. We began yelling and crying in response to the pain of what we saw. While we were doing this a man approached us. He started yelling violent homophobic slurs at us. He then raised a gun from his lap and fired. Jonathan and I had no weapons. We were not threatening anyone. We were grieving. We were standing side by side. When the man fired Jonathan pushed me out of the way. He saved my life. Jonathan is my husband. He gave me more love in our time together than most people ever get. We were newlyweds. We picked Valentines Day. We were in the process of looking for a trailer and planning our future. He was murdered by someone who could not stand the sight of two men loving each other. I was with him when he passed. I told him how much he was loved. To everyone who supported him, his fans, his friends, know that he valued you deeply. He saw you as family. My focus now is on protecting Jonathan’s legacy and honoring the life we built together. If your concern is how someone coped with trauma or how loudly they speak when recounting injustice and being ignored by authorities then you never truly cared about my husband. Jonathan saved my life. I will carry that forward. I will protect what he built. Tristan Kern de Gonzales

Jonathan Joss--voice actor of John Redcorn from King of the Hill, and Ken Hotate from Parks and Rec--was killed in a homophobic hate crime today.

I'm so angry.

A tabby cat with white fur on his paws and chest. The car is sitting, looking at the camera from below.

Hello there! What's up?

I hope it's all better now!

Convenience and consistency. It's literally everywhere in the US. I lived in a small (population ~50k) city and still there were like 5 stores.

It doesn't matter that it's "not as good" as some other coffee shop when you can always get it no matter where in the country you are.

Jair Bolsonaro Ordered to Face Trial in Brazil for Attempting a Coup Brazil’s top court ruled that the former president will be tried over his role in a vast plot to cling to power after his 2022 election loss.

This is what you're supposed to do with fascist assholes.

May he rot in jail where he belongs.

The "funny" (as in awful; sad; horrendous) part is that Trump is speedrunning ALL of the grievances against King George that led to the declaration of independence to be written.

Rebecca made me cheesecake. I made her a burger. That's why we're the perfect couple. I won't be taking any questions.

Caesar, a tabby cat being held by my wife. He leans over her left shoulder, looking somewhat annoyed.

A selfie of myself and my wife sitting on a couch on a semi-leaning position. On top of my chest, Tougar, a tabby cat, facing away from the camera. On my wife's chest, Caesar, another tabby cat rests, content and oblivious to our picture-taking. My wife is also petting Adora, an orange tabby sitting to her left on the sofa.

Lost one of my cats today. Had him for 15 years. I'm going to miss that old bastard waking us up in the morning for food.

He was a trooper to the end. Had diabetes. Had to endure 2 shots of insulin a day for the past two years. He was loved, happy, and had a great run.

See you someday, Caesar.

There's absolutely no way you checked every single jurisdiction in a few minutes. You continue to be intellectually dishonest (not to mention actively lying) to defend the barbaric behavior of the US government. Bootlickers like you disgust me. I'm done.

Try to keep up. We're talking about enforcement. In the jurisdictions where jaywalking is a misdemeanor you can absolutely get 6 months of jail, because that's the standard penalty.

But it's not enforced. Also no, you didn't "look" or you'd know wtf you're talking about.

I'm not Google buddy. Information is out there. If you want it, seek it out yourself.

Depends on the jurisdiction.

Crossing the border illegally is a "crime" in the exact same way jaywalking is a "crime". Where are the mass arrests of jaywalkers?

At least be intellectually honest.

I think with this Boros cycling can just be basically mono red.

Being good at doing something and enjoying doing something are different things.

Be good at your job. Like your hobbies. No one's paying for "passion", they're paying for competence.

Sometimes these things overlap at work, but not always. Always get paid to do what you're GOOD at doing.
