Look, I get that GTA6 is a big deal, @ign.com, but this feels like you're just trying to drive up click numbers instead of just having a single comprehensive article like you would for literally any other game preview.

The measles probably didn't help, regardless.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 20h agoDr Oz: "I don't want anyone in America concerned inappropriately. We don't know exactly what happened in PAG yet. We don't know if the children died from measles or had another condition that was already attacking them and they happened to get measles at the same time. We lived this during covid."
Tim Curry elevated every single thing he was in. Even movies that would otherwise be terrible were suddenly at the very least enjoyable just because he was in them.
So that part in The Last Sharknado where the source of Sharknados is in ancient Egypt was historically accurate? gizmodo.com/evidence-of-...

But the previous trade deal with Canada was negotiated by Trump. So did Trump fail then?
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 3d agoMichigan Rep. Lisa McClain on Trump's trade war with Canada: "What President Trump is trying to do, and I applaud him for that, is level the playing field. There is absolutely no way that President Trump is going to the make a bad deal for the American people."
Apparently every NFL team now has a Disney mascot. Okay, giving the Pats Captain America is obvious enough, but how on Earth do you do so and not have one piece of merch with him in Pat the Patriot's pose?
One nice thing about living in the digital age and the constant data breaches is a few times a year getting class action settlements that I completely forgot I even signed up for. Just out of the blue, here's $50! Neat.
You know what, good point. So, about those Epstein files...

Schooley@schooley.bsky.social · 4d agoRead this headline like 5 times and I'm still not sure I understand what's going on here.
Okay, here's one: Administration officials in attendance are "Trump's Grand Pricks".
Schooley@schooley.bsky.social · 5d agoPeople don’t even care enough about Trump’s Grand Prix to joke about it.
Selling Brawndo would be more appropriate at this point.

Lucky Dog Hot Sauce@luckydoghotsauce.bsky.social · 6d agoI think the writers were told it was cancelled and just entirely ran out of fucks to give. I can respect that. For all the whimsy, we all know what happens to Pike eventually. I’m more than a little concerned about how they’ll handle that. 😬
And I view Anne Hathaway as my estranged wife.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 6d agoTrump: "I view the Strait of Hormuz as an American territory"
And if you're old enough, the obvious joke is "because seven ate nine".
Drew Curtis@drewcurtis.bsky.social · last wk.I’m torn between 6 and 7 and go ahead and make the obvious joke if you’re young enough
We're one step away from "sure we're losing money, but we'll make up for it in volume."
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · last wk.🤦 Bessent's media tour was a disaster 🤦 "There's nothing magic about the $40 trillion number. We can grow our way out of that" "After the deportations that we've seen and the closing of the border, we don't need to produce as many jobs" Bessent's spin of bad data was pathetic. Here's a supercut:
Trump hates higher education so much, he wants to make damn sure nobody spends a year in college because of a horse.
Raw Story@rawstory.com · last wk.The Trump administration has been quietly selling thousands of wild mustangs to slaughterhouses for as little as $25 a horse — more than doubling sales since taking office, according to a Times analysis of government records
Hey, @nintendousa.bsky.social, maybe it's worth adding an option for "check my whole damn library for updates" instead of having to periodically manually check every individual item so I have to latest version when I'm out and not on WiFi?
This whole story is like how one statement by a comedian started a long line of dominos that resulted in Bill Cosby going to prison. Sometimes it just takes one person to loudly say "Why the fuck are we not talking about this?"
Shoe@shoe.bsky.social · last wk.Jon Ossoff is a national hero.
Fine, put one adjacent to Mar-a-Lago. Show us how great it is.

Always nice to get a regular reminder that the current President has no idea how economics work.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · last wk.Trump: "When our country is strong, interest rates should go down. When our country is weak, frankly they should go up."
My grandmother was the only person I have ever personally known in my life that actually liked Moxie. Always had a case of it around the house. I tried it once. Once.
Stephen King@stephenking.bsky.social · last wk.Survey says the most popular soft drink in Maine is Canada Dry Ginger Ale. First, it's not dry, it's wet. Second of all, the Maine drink is Moxie. Everybody knows that. I don't drink it myself, because it tastes really weird.
Officer: "You know you just ran over three people and a dog back there?" Me: "Sorry, living life forward. You shouldn't focus on what's already done. Can I go now?"
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 2w agoTAPPER: When you were asked if you regret your vote for RFK Jr, you noted you 'couldn't see into the future.' How do you respond to the criticism you just needed to look to the past bc he's been spreading disinformation for 22 years? CASSIDY: All I can say is you have to live life living forward
"We got into this conflict with Iran" As if it just spontaneously happened and was entirely unavoidable.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 2w agoMike Johnson: "We put in this Congress into place all the economic conditions to let the economy take off like a rocket, and beginning in the first quarter of this year that's what was happening, and then we got into the conflict with Iran ... that's the big headwind we have right now."
Given the competency on display by this administration so far, there's a non-zero chance of the ballroom ending up with gilded marine animals.
Dan Diamond@ddiamond.bsky.social · 2w agoThe White House's request to the Supreme Court this morning included lots of new photos, renderings and other info on the ballroom WH lawyer claims it's 65% complete and it's too late for any court to stop it. One new addition: Trump's ballroom would apparently have gold seals
