- Media Conglomco: We must synergize our core competancies to monetize the zeitgeist to maximum efficiency! The Public: Dude, we just want a good movie. Like if you could sweeten the pot with a Bugs Bunny cartoon that would be pretty cool.
- The trouble is that most people don't actually know this and mgmt will tell them some bs like "we had to cut your hours to increase profitability" and they'll nod and think it sounds reasonable because they think those profits pay their wages.
- These 90 degree days in May are just the free demo for how stupidly out of pocket this summer is going to be.
- Real cool design guys 10/10 no notes what could go wrong
- I've found myself wondering if modern standard is faster than Affinity was, and I don't know about that but I do know the old Tooth and Nail decks beat Affinity and Tooth and Nail cost at least 7 mana. It also required you to make decisions and not automatically just play every card in your deck.
- I mean if I were an extraterrestrial parasite bent on world conquest the first thing I'd do after taking control of my host would be to try to gain control of the health/medicine/science institutions.
- Interviewer: Can you explain this gap in your resume? GAP Employee: They closed the store and opened a Victoria's Secret.

- abandoned motel about 25 minutes up the mountain from me
- Seems like the perfect place for me to get out of the rat race and finally finish my novel. I'm sure the wife and kid won't mind getting away from it all, either.
- Grace Jones - Egizio Fabbrici, 1978.
- Whistling on the way to the nearest AI data center, a sledgehammer with "Nightshade" painted on its head in one hand and a portable degausser labeled "Glaze" in the other.
- Sounds like every fire truck in the city tearing through Whittier. Source likely a pretty big fire at 26th & Dupont via friend monitoring Citizen.
- That comic of the Grim Reaper going door to door only it's me and the public output of artists I've followed because I liked their stuff.
- This is not a complaint, they neither owe myself nor anyone else anything- just noting how often I find someone and I'm all "Hell Yeah! And they even post work like every day!" and then it just.... stops. That's gotta be a sign of a good and healthy society, huh?
- Americans come running for the great taste of boot leather!
- It's far too late at night for this to be circulating in my brain meats.... The lesson of C3PO is that no one likes someone who acts like they know everything, -especially- if they're right.
- Does he seem high strung and anxious all the time? Of course he does! You fuckers are flying him up the ass end of a black hole after ping ponging through an asteroid field after he's been repeatedly dismantled and shot at, a course of action he has mathed out and knows is a terrible idea!
- You sold him into servitude to an intergalacticly known gangster without cluing him in on what the actual plan is because you thought it would be funny!
- Back on my bullshit (playing UB discard like its 2001)
- [Not loaded yet]
- Jeepers Creepers- particularly the very first scene, which is an all time banger.
- NEW: California has launched ‘Ask CAL FIRE”, an AI-powered chatbot on @calfire.bsky.social’s website offering wildfire resources and emergency information in 70 languages. We’re committed to transforming government to more efficiently and effectively serve people.

- He'd rather have them on his podcast.
- Heck yeah watch this, but also 20 foot tall CONTENT WARNING for a scene of utter violation (standard content warning for the usual sex and violence you'd expect to find in a dystopian R-rated)
- Huh. I guess it's too bad my opponent had connection issues but I guess I'll still take the win.
- Because today I am in fact that petty bitch, that orphaned exclamation point in the "We love MPLS Timeline" graphic is clear evidence that these are not serious people.
- collected this thread of info on the people behind we love minneapolis (the operators and the donors) into a blog post to have it in one place - taylordahlin.com/f/who-is-beh...

View full threadAhahahaha, and cutting off the whole right side of their projected slides. This whole thing is just a bit, right? Right?!?!
- *left side. See, you shouldn't put me in charge of anything either.
- Oh god and the "t" orphans in "Suppor" Graphic design is my passion-ass layouts all around.
- Man it is hard to meet people with similar interests when all of your interest related events tend to happen while you're at work. I suppose it's my own fault for working second shift weekends.
- If you want a Malört cocktail to toast Chicago Pope with, might I suggest: The Stuff Dreams Are Made Of 2 oz. bourbon 1 oz. Malört Dash of maple orange bitters The Hard Sell 1 oz. gin 1 oz. Malört 1 oz. St. Germain 1 oz. lemon juice

- I -almost- requested People Are Good when you asked if there was anything I wanted to hear, but thought it might have wrecked the vibe you had going on the floor.
- Two consecutive popes just hate my guts. That's popes. Not bishops or cardinals. Popes! The head guy of the very religion that I converted into, and one that, at its heart is supposed to be about love. But do they call me JD the pope hated?
-
View full threadI write a widely praised novelization of my life experiences growing up in Appalachia. It makes it to number one on Oprah's reading list. Ron Howard adapts it to film! But do they call me JD the author?
- You fuck one couch.
- I drop Ohio State's national championship trophy. I mean I fumble it harder than Tiger Woods at a Lakers game. Does that sound right? I don't really follow baseball. I just make an utter ass of myself with my oafish clumsiness. But do they call me JD the trophy dropper?
- Elon starting to cram them in his mouth as the production line starts moving too fast for him to keep up.
- People will claim the moral high ground right up to the moment they are asked to take a step up.

- And most of the copyrighted monsters are someone else's creations with the serial numbers crossed out with crayon.
- This website is pretty good but could be improved by adding a feature on the Adult Content filter that makes the picture load extremely slowly while sleazy brass music plays when I click "Show"
- Uh-oh, looks like we'll have to try hard to impress the kids. A thing that always works and isn't weird at all.
- Does anyone else have a hand signal for your dog which means "I am done eating the thing I am eating and therefore have no more to give you"?
- [Not loaded yet]
- And yet both hands must be thoroughly investigated to confirm that this is not some sort of trick.
- The Fall is such a good fucking movie
- The first time is a suckerpunch. Subsequent times are worse because you know what is coming. Does it matter that it is layers of unreality and fiction? No! It does not.
- I haven't been proper drunk in a long time. I mean I'm still not, but I am drunk enough I would like to fistfight god over the mockery that's been made of creation.

- You have to hold them in place until the bonding agent takes place and that takes FOR. EVER. (15 seconds)
- You can write volumes upon volumes of lore for your art, or you can just put a pit full of bells right at the start.

- I'm not entirely sure HOW, but the dog is somehow under my bed again.
- We've built a world of dissociated results. We study not to increase our knowledge, but to get a good grade. We create not to bring something new into the world, but to get money. Our ideals are not a thing to strive for, but a way to stroke our egos.
- The middle one is often a side effect of living in the slavering maw of capitalism, but the cause matters less than the effect. Unless you've got some actionable ideas on eliminating the cause anyways.
- The screen adaptation is pretty great.
