Fan, lawyer, foodie, New Yorker, cryptic, menacing, same name as Twitter
- Before I was a parent I had the position of "you cannot complain about child noise except politely asking the child to be a bit quieter" now it's even more clearly correct.
- Yesterday's Word Count = 803 As far as I can tell the mandate for British Children's TV in the 1970s was to scare the shit out of the little buggers(1) (1) One of those little buggers being me. youtu.be/WxuyI5mLutY?...
- ah yes, one of three that came here as "The Mind's Eye". Genuinely scary, and odd and limited-run enough that I was briefly convinced I'd imagined it!

- I don't see any country, bluegrass, OR blues.
- Stove hot!
- It's noticeable when I'm in midtown for work but it's revolutionary when I do drive into Manhattan for some reason: I had to bring a carload of boxes from LIC to tribeca/fidi and it took THIRTY MINUTES EACH WAY. Previously 90+!!!!!!!!!
- If the USCO winds up a bastion of resistance I'm going to need to retract some mean things I've said.
- Answer to yesterday’s #mtgtrivia question: The first public announcement of Magic called the game Mana Clash. Richard had always called it Magic, but the word in isolation couldn’t be copyrighted. The solution was to add “The Gathering”. #WotCStaff
- Question from #mtgtrivia question: For the first public announcement about Magic, it had a different name. What was it? #WotCStaff
- Trademarked!
- oh so Zidane is Ragavan in the bonus sheet for #MTGxFF because his card in the FF tcg is already Ragavan? That's actually a good bit! (Even if it wasn't, "Monkey Pirate" is amazing typing for him)
- Bluesky's userbase tilts pretty far towards liberals (gonna count progs as libs, but apologetically and with all due respec). But to everyone calling this place an outlier / echo chamber let me give you some admittedly unscientific anecdata:
-
View full threadMost definitely BlueSky excludes a crapload of normie libs. -For example, Depp supporters from the Depp v Heard case are frowned on. -And liberal gender criticals are harassed off the platform with hate, insults and often death threats. Even the most tepid GC views get dogpiled.
- GC views aren't "normie lib" they're fascist. Happy to clarify that for you!

- Happened to me with a different provider a few years back. In particular it thought I was in Manchester, and I was getting ads for there-local dentists and home HVAC companies. Baffling.
- They can both result from not paying attention to the lunar cycle.

- Something something critically acclaimed something free trial something something
- this is basically the initial plot of once upon a time.
- Notably, Adams also attacks this bullshit - the society is wiped out because of this stupid decision!
- I think he's cheap enough, and easy enough to transform if built around, that stacking those emblems is reasonable with him as commander.
- OMG this is amazing. Wish 9 version was an Oglop but this is hilarious. Is this the first legal-as-commander "any number" card?
- It's in-Cid-ious how we've done this! #MTGxFINALFANTASY
- When the great Keith Giffen was teaching me to write comics, he always said “continuity, not canon”. Canon was a trap that limited stories. The Martian Manhunter should always feel like the Martian Manhunter ( his example), should always love Chocos, but individual stories were a playground.
- Let the fans figure it out is a good move. It gives them something to do, and the act of filling in the blanks or "fixing problems" makes them invested. The No-Prize was one of the greatest customer-retention schemes ever invented.
- Post the best panel of X-Men you can think of right now.
- if you are thinking of buying a residence with a person you are not married to: unless you have about $15K lying around to paper your non-marital relationship, don't.

- Oh no oh no oh no.
- turns out it's not so bad in monoblue.
- My Hungarian-Jewish grandfather, of a previously-transylvanian family, was Mad About Triannon until the day he died.
- Trying to decide if my favorite part is the coffee cup with no hole to drink from, the square magic card, or the card magically standing on edge in the center of the table.
- Unfortunately he didn't see this as a gotcha - these bozos don't believe in skills or training, they believe only in innate talent. You're either a 10x programmer or you're not. This is why they're so weird about skipping college. It ties in neatly to their eugenics and old-school hardcore racism.

- Acyually extremely normal.
- one of the best exercises for developing cultural literacy-literacy (that is, the ability to learn what the signifiers are) is the old Looney Tunes that are just a bunch of specific impressions and ultratopical jokes. Working your way through Hollywood Steps Out is an education.
- this is a video posted by the Toronto police association. if you set aside the fact that this is a march for a cop that crashed his car choking on a hot dog, which is very funny on its own, this is the worst marching discipline I've ever seen in my life. I'm fucking crying
- humans walking together naturally fall into step! What the HELL is going on here? It would literally be difficult to be this descynced when walking in a group together.

- Never a miss. We've just moved and I'm finally putting up art in an organized way, and my print of speck of dust/whole world is going up.
- Oh good! Now I can re-make an appointment I had cancelled. Frustratingly, none of the other major bariatric practices would take me on for monitoring and fills.

- I'm not sure about 2-5 (other than not ranking Cuomo) but lander was my initial pick and has locked it as things have gotten more in-depth.
- Yeah it's not bad

View full threadBorn early March, exceedingly cute, very good natured so far. Presently getting bounced and starting to get hungry. I'm glad I'm maintaining my social media brand of crypticness.
- Mealtime! If he zeroes out this bottle, we're going to start looking at stepping up a half-ounce or so.
- Buy Nothing posts are a whole spectrum of human experience. From "Gifting my grandma's priceless antique dresser bc that's what she would have wanted" to "Who would like this magnificent cardboard box. My cat puked in one corner but otherwise it's in great condition"
- After our move, the broken down cardboard boxes were much easier to find free takers for than the quite-nice but surplus to requirements glassware.
- Maybe that's the one I was thinking of? Well, they're both bad.
- I think twilight gemini is more "monkey punchy" (rapey and murdery) and gold of Babylon is more unbelievably terribad with bonus gross fanservice but not predator-lupin. Both go in the bin. Dozens of better lupin movies!

- Worse than gold of Babylon?
- You have a kid?!?
- yup
- Knights of the Round: Sir Kel Sir Cumference Sir Kus Sir Kumcise and so on and so forth
- The funniest thing is this is the same jokw four times.
- I think a trademark lawyer would be an even better idea. Pay them their flat hourly rather than a commission, too. You're trying to build a brand, right? So a trademark lawyer Just Makes Sense!
- Hmm brb checking Amazon time on iodine pills.
- sure would be cool to a non-senile president and a functional national security staff right now www.cnn.com/webview/worl...
