I don’t usually have any problems, but going from browsing in black mode at 11 pm to getting a screenful of white was quite jarring…

No thanks, I already ate

Argh! Light mode!

Actually, that would…Wait a minute!

Witch King of Angmar marked himself safe from any man

Speaking of hotlines, here’s the official contact form for Governor Hochul in case you want to comment on the proposal and her performance in general.

And for no related reason whatsoever, here’s the entire script of Bee Movie

I mean, it’s a defamation case. If not for his own words defaming them, what WOULD they use to advance their case? Puppets?

That being said, I’m crossing everything except the streams that he’ll finally see some consequences for one of the many crimes he’s bragged about or, as in this case COMMITTED while on live national TV 🤞🤞

I mean, it’s been expanded to mean, amongst many other things “male aged 12 or older killed by American military in Middle Eastern country” over two DECADES ago!

The age of the billionaire-owned media, politicians, cops, and politician-cops using that word responsibly died before most of Gen Z were even born.

Netanyahu: “HRW is Hamas and every government should sanction them!”

US and European* officials and spokespeople: “we disagree. No, we won’t elaborate or otherwise provide any factual explanation”

Rest of the world:

Who’s more poor than the moon, though? It not just doesn’t have any money, it’s not even ALLOWED to own money!

Why doesn’t @[email protected] just MARRY screenshots if they like them so much?

Yes, just like the legal term for a predatory debt spiral disguised as a short term loan used to be “payday loan” (now called something else to avoid regulation imposed on the previous euphemism).

The more innocent-sounding but deceptive term that a predatory industry prefers doesn’t become correct just because they successfully bribe politicians to make it become/remain the official one.

Gambling, not gaming. Games are things you play for enjoyment, not things that you pour money into with the (almost always disappointed) hope that more money will come back to you.

Examples of games:

-Fallout New Vegas -Settlers of Catan -Twister -Truth or Dare

NOT games:

-Roulette -Blackjack -Slot machines (whether physically or virtual) -Predatory capitalism

Hybrids and edge cases:

• Any game with loot boxes and similar bullshit -Poker, though it’s more akin to sports gambling than enjoyment with gambling. -online dating

Oh yeah! I remember that too, now that you mentioned it! That frog was hella polite-looking! As is its capy successor 😁

Seems that they only counted slaves from the South. I bet that including New England slave owners would take it from “many” to “most”, if not even “almost all”.

While not on an industrial scale like in the South, there was still a lot of slavery in the original colonies and their successor states, which played a big part in enabling generational wealth for any family rich enough to buy a slave at the time.

that the moment a physical book is published and sold through it immediately becomes “not available for sale”

Because that specific book now has a new owner who can keep it or sell it as they see fit. Like people still do with physical games.

If you mean that a book becomes generally unavailable when it’s between printings, though, you’re wrong. Publishers overlap print runs and begin selling the first paperbacks before they’ve sold out the initial hard cover prints PRECISELY to avoid the situation you seem to think happens with every single book.

Probably because overall, this app collection treats you like a machine in need of precise optimization and maintenance of everything including relaxation?

That’s what creeps ME out about it, at least 🤷

Oh wow, that’s seriously one of the best protest songs I’ve heard i. DECADES!

The seemingly impossible but very apparent mix of dripping sarcasm and absolute sincerity really elevates what’s already a great song in its own right to an absolute fucking masterpiece! 😘👌✊

Jesse welles is a treasure

Stark, probably? 🤷

My all time favorite “Stig Fact” from Top Gear is

“They say that he knows only two things about ducks…and both of them are wrong”

Which would arguably qualify as knowing less than nothing about ducks 😁
