A screenshot of slay the spire 2. I'm playing as necromancer. I have zero energy, 27hp and my companion Osty has 1hp. We are battling The Doormaker, who has doom exceeding his 159hp but it showing as about to hit me for 27 damage. Basically I'm joking cuz he's gonna come within 1hp of killing me then he'll die so I'll win act 3.
He really thought he had me đź’…
There's nothing cool about standing around at an airport gate. It's cringe even. Normal people accept that this is how it works though, you wait at the oil change place, you wait at the airport cuz you're there early, you wait for comcast to ghost you. If you can't accept this you are a coward
Many years ago when google glass first came out I watched a guy at a caltrain station drive his stupid scooter smack into a pole while wearing google glass, breaking his glasses, and it was glorious. Silver lining here is, I get to see that happen many times over again now
The Onion plans to turn Infowars into a comedy site with satirical echoes of the fringe conspiracy theories that Mr. Jones is known for. Tim Heidecker, one of the comedians behind “Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job!” on Cartoon Network’s Adult Swim, has been hired to serve as “creative director of Infowars.” He said he initially plans to parody Mr. Jones’s “whole modus operandi.” Mr. Heidecker has been working on his impression of Mr. Jones. But eventually, when that joke gets old, Mr. Heidecker said that he hoped to turn Infowars into a destination for independent and experimental comedy. “I just thought it would be just a beautiful joke if we could take this pretty toxic, negative, destructive force of Infowars and rebrand it as this beautiful place for our creativity,” Mr. Heidecker said in an interview. During a recent trip to Philadelphia, he traveled to the Liberty Bell to film a video in character as the new creative director of Infowars.
Get excited.

I'm sure that what he'll do will be distinct from how he handles On Cinema stuff but his character's trajectory in On Cinema already mines this territory really well IMHO, I'm excited!
Everything about our Iran War being conducted by a party that can only lie, complain and punish feels like an overly elaborate exploration of @veryimportant.lawyer's theory that Everyone Is 12 Now.

Oakland's landlords weren't paying their business taxes. Once the City started pursuing what was owed, rental business tax doubled from the previous year, over tripled the year before that. Pretty wild how they are constantly whining at city hall about deadbeat tenants
I love it that whatever garbage upscale program this network has run on Star Trek: DS9 has made it so it looks like the camera is shaking constantly in every episode. Technology is great

What is Eve Fartlow's actual paying day job at this point. Does she even have one or does she just get money for posting nonstop about how much she loves seeing dead children

I’ve had the same editor since 1967. Many times he has said to me over the years or asked me, Why would you use a semicolon instead of a colon? And many times over the years I have said to him things like: I will never speak to you again. Forever. Goodbye. That is it. Thank you very much. And I leave. Then I read the piece and I think of his suggestions. I send him a telegram that says, OK, so you’re right. So what? Don’t ever mention this to me again. If you do, I will never speak to you again

Silicone Valley calling Rahm Emmanuel the future of the Democratic Party should tell you everything you need to know about that man and The Democrats
In the same manifesto, Palantir's owners argued that we need a national military draft, that soft power is over, and that we were too hard on Germany and Japan after World War II. I don't think that company should be allowed to exist anymore.

tori amos disappears into a bells for her pocket dimension. "oh you thought I'd be cheeky and play Ireland tonight? guess what"
I don't know why you're worried she's just playing a 20 minute version of Bells for Her
I don't think it's helpful to berate people for what they don't know per se but it's also a bit head-spinny when they fantasize about military refusing orders this next time when you point out all the times in recent history that they also should have and did not. Why would this change THIS time
It's been like this since 2000 when they were browbeating Nader voters (I actually was not one!) for "ruining" it when, well, uh, who really ruined the 2000 election
(not nader voters)
(I don't blame people for being mad about the loss of reproductive rights, nor for feeling like at times the threat wasn't taken seriously enough - my point is that we all have make-or-break issues, it's just that some people aren't being honest about this. at all.)
It's also bizarre how often I see the "just do it, just vote for a candidate whose viewpoints clash utterly with your main ones" line employed sidealong with a complaint that these unruly voters didn't take reproductive rights seriously enough - i.e., these wreckers hurt the issue important to me
If voters are pissed off at you because of vitally significant issues - genocide, climate, human rights - continually telling them that it's actually their civic responsibility to abdicate on that and just "pick a side" won't work and frankly is fucking ahistorical lmao
A rebuttal here is often an eyeroll and a comment about how you shouldn't have to coddle voters/that voting should be seen as a civic duty somewhat divorced of your moral standpoints which is logic they never employ when trying to cultivate right-wing voters and again, whiffs hard with aggrieved ppl
It's hilarious that Dems seem to think that the best way of handling their perception of a voting base that sneered at prior candidates is complaining constantly about them/yelling at them in an attempt to get them to vote the right way next time.
"THIS time when we call them fucking idiots,"
Screenshotted excerpt from linked article reading as follows: "In public, Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. has cultivated a reputation for care and caution. The papers reveal a different side of him. At a critical moment for the country and the court, the papers show, he acted as a bulldozer in pushing to stop Mr. Obama’s plan to address the global climate crisis. When colleagues warned the chief justice that he was proposing an unprecedented move, he was dismissive. “I recognize that the posture of this stay request is not typical,” he wrote. But he argued that the Obama plan, which aimed to regulate coal-fired plants, was “the most expensive regulation ever imposed on the power sector,” and too big, costly and consequential for the court not to act immediately."
OOP
New York Times got receipts on John Roberts being like, 'I know this isn't how anything works, but a Democratic president is about to implement a policy!!'

It is my understanding that to be featured in Witherspoon’s popular book club, authors must give her production company an option for film/TV development. It’s understandable they’re pissed about tying themselves to a company now promoting a technology that’s stolen from most — if not all — of them.
