Seems a little implicate-y to me

Isn't this how Europe does it?

A catalogue listing for a plumbing component: Draw Off Cock Washer

Telling another cowboy to stand down:

It's so well done I just wish the literal script was more well written, plus there's a wink that they lost by being so reverant

Ni No Kuni 2 and Octopath Traveler 2 got me close, but I feel largely the same

This happened the other day and went great!

One thing I got into was the most I ever worked with a writer on a story, which was essentially a full rewrite before I published him in Redivider (to acclaim!)

I *think* it's a rare thing - has anyone else participated in extensive edits for a lit mag?

This would have been a multi-day story in the olden days pre 2015. lol... like George H W Bush being amazed at a supermarket scanner in the early 90s.

👀 Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attack on Bluesky.

Selfishly I'd love to have an editor come back to me with "let's dig into this one" one of these days, but I don't get the impression that's a popular use of peoples time?

He had a gem of a story buried beneath some inexperienced, opaque grammar, but he was happy to receive the extensive notes and revise

It was lovely because it was the story that people then talked about the most, plus years later he asked me for a rec letter to his MFA program, which he got into

I regret to inform everyone that the AC went back in the window today

Cmon, let’s go #NBAsky

Ok but I'm not going to fall for this "I never liked 'em anyway" stuff you all are doing

"There was a lot of laughter, because we were having such a good time."

"After I signed the contract, the pen disappeared in a most perfectly innocuous hiss of blue smoke."

"No requirements of any kind" is the sort of definitive blanket statement made to the public that never comes back to haunt anyone

Lol

As is often pointed out, everything they do is just a straight up global purge

My Orioles hat is already in the mail

Yotsuba to! was a formative text for me, and I had no idea it was still going until this moment.

Started going to the gym ~6 weeks ago, and turns out there are a lot of muscles I didn't have

A lot of politicians seem to be messaging to themselves to calm down and do nothing right now

President threatens the eradication of 90 million people, and America's opposition party is just not getting it.

Complete loss of words for the way our elected officials on both sides of the aisle are approaching These Times.

Armageddon is terrible, but our only other option was diversity trainings at work.

Sometimes I wonder if there's a rum out there that would bring the drink back into my good graces

Now I'm curious, do any micro-nostalgias come to mind?

The "you wake up and you're in your childhood room in 1996, hooray!" videos are so strange to me, it's a sentiment I've never encountered organically in the wild

The only thing open carry ever makes me think is "this person is scared to death of leaving their house to go to Applebee's" and someone so on edge is actively making wherever they are more dangerous.

Bemused always means the opposite of whatever you're sure it means from the last time you thought about it
