so how long before why starts pitching crosspromotions involving tropical fruit?

didn't you put your phone in the pool because it was too hot or something?

they're pretty receptive to the DoD, one of their major customers. they don't always listen of course :v

As someone who works in that bureaucracy, lol. No. The public bureaucracy has hardly been answerable to the public unless enough people yell at elected officials to take notice.

If someone at the SSA fucks up a person's form, they're not answerable to the public. They're answerable to their boss.

Sure civil rights suits are *possible* but they move at the speed of bureaucracy so any answering comes years after the fact unless enough cages of elected officials are rattled and that's not really being answerable to the public. That's being answerable to congress or the president

absolutely peak

My sister found and messaged my work email and idk wtf

Saw a weird thing while walking today. Those bears have been there since I moved into the area (a few years) but the tags are new.

I dare not get close enough to check what material they are.

Let me know if you want to know where in Philly they are!

cuckolding game on steam gets review bombed as players find that the 'he doesn't even know she's cheating on him' is played less for sexual thrill and more for mr. magoo style comedy setups

James is not kidding. Someone on Twitter put together a clip compilation and Kenshiro's actor sounds like someone doing a parody of bad old anime dubs. I am SPEECHLESS. I am DUMBFOUNDED.

He can't even do the fight noises right!

Also no one can pronounce "Hokuto."

There are people in the world who say that there are only two genders: male and female.
But the heart and soul have much more personality.
It's very sad that people who can't accept this sometimes utter very harsh words.
You were born to live freely.

It's politics as religion and people trying to be holier than thou about it. It is their identity and that someone else that they don't like has it offends them emotionally

On the left, the 12th volume of the Haruhi Suzumiya light novels. On the right, official artwork of 30-year-old Haruhi Suzumiya. She's wearing a white cardigan with a beige blouse, leaning on a table with her elbows.

Well, we do have official artwork of 30-year-old Haruhi Suzumiya...

Love a good Oppression Olympics. It's Tumblr circa 2010 all over again.

It's a weird result of wording that conviction of impeachment is a lower bar than 25th removal such that it may be easier to convince those willing to vote on some impeachment charge than to whip the extra votes for a 25th removal. (Especially in the house where it's majority vs. 2/3rds)

Amid some of the city’s most expensive properties, more than two dozen Center City sites continue to be used for public parking. What gives?

Accidentally mashed the wrong button in a gacha and bought a thing.

At least it was only some $5 thing and not one of the godawful $99 packs

Stock tv show genre shows but with a Start Wars coat of paint are a thing they should do more of. Andor and Skeleton Crew showed it works. Clone Wars on the clone parts too.

Ideas they should do:
Jedi procedural
Imperial/Republic office comedy
Kids reality/game show to be a Jedi
Star Trek TOS

Voice of Luigi in upcoming Super Mario movie Charlie Day was asked who his favorite Luigi’s are, and he said Luigi Mangione

What I found out was that he basically has zero presence on the internet at this point besides some educated connections based on his published master's thesis and a statistics software that was, at one point, maintained by someone with the same name. Also might have gotten a misdemeanor in 2014.

Spent the better part of two hours trying to find out what the developer of the infamous TTRPG, F.A.T.A.L., was up to and what I found out will shock you!

Why are all of the sidings on the same side?
