"Get away from me right now," King, a retired U.S. Army captain who served in Iraq and earned both a Purple Heart and a Bronze Star, can be heard telling the three male guard members in the video as they approach her on the bench. "You have absolutely no authority to detain me."

for legal reasons Bluesky still hasn't rolled out the true AT protocol where if enough people block you, you die IRL (not to mention the terrifying damnatio memoriae block, where if the block numbers are massive enough you cease to ever have existed)

They should invent an ADHD that lets you

oh damn, you could do the reverse too: artifact that's supposed to be super old doesn't do anything to a young vampire, cue major archeology scandal

Josh Fruhlinger@jfruh.bsky.social · 3d ago

imagine the great bits you could spin out of this as vampire hunters have to figure out how old a vampire is based on cultural cues. a vampire dude is presenting himself as a 2,000 year old ancient monster but then recoils at a cheap plastic crucifix made in 1978

now as far as we know the only authority Everett True possesses are the Fists of Everett True, so we have to assume that if he's going around inspecting factories it is simply because he took it upon himself to do so

you know that saying about being faster than the bear? well, you don't have to know more than the chicken expert. you just have to know more than the guy who did the least research about chickens.

Joseph Fink, we're going to win@planetoffinks.bsky.social · 2y ago

this is genuinely my greatest fear about writing historical fiction. I'll spend a bunch of time researching, do my best, and some fucking chicken expert will be like "chickens are wrong"

okay sorry I know this question is 15 years late but why DO Dragon Age II (2011) and Skyrim (2011) have a quest with a serial killer who's murdering women as part of a black magic thing to bring his lover back from the dead by assembling a new body for her from the parts of his victims

so when I was born my parents were renting a house at the top of a hill with a terrifying switchback backroad going up it, and when they were bringing me home the first time someone had crashed and blocked the road near the top so Dad had to *back* the car all the way back down. in a blizzard.

the parenting advice algorithm is so fucking good

this stuff doesn’t clock as hypocritical to the right because they don’t think that the care that trans people receive is “gender affirming.” there’s no contradiction in their minds.

Parker Molloy@parkermolloy.com · 3w ago

Every time someone calls Hegseth's testosterone program or Elon's hair plugs "gender affirming care," I wince. Speaking only for myself, and I know the jokes are well-intentioned: I wish we'd retire this one. New from me on why. www.readtpa.com/p/theres-no-...

This concept was introduced to me as "run the dishwasher twice" and was an important part of my executive functioning recovery as well as my path to self-acceptance.

The way they intend to Make America Healthy Again is to kill off the unhealthy people who count against that. They have _said_ this. Believe them.

Who could have seen this coming? Nobody.

It was not the first time the old man had encountered such a setback. His entire life had been beset by similar misfortune. That is the wrong word, he thought. It was something worse than bad luck. The Strait was rigged.
