I of course loved him as Chekov, but playing Bester on BABYLON 5 really showed his range. You really forgot the guy ever *was* Chekov in that role. RIP Walter Koenig.

My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.
I've said it before but it bears repeating: damn I love my Brazilian fandom friends. You guys are the best.
There was a fucking hole in our planet’s *atmosphere* Like a legit, no joke, “this will unravel our entire ecosystem” hole in the world, and then we fixed it by working together across national and political lines As a species we decided, “we will survive” Let’s do that some more

found out that my mother in law decided she was aggressively pro trans rights literally by going, I don't know anything about this but everyone who is against trans rights is also against free school lunch, the issue I know and care a lot about, so this must be the correct way to feel about this
Not the top Steam review of Dressmaker making me cry this morning!

There is something so soul crushing about creating art that pushes the needle in the games industry, only to be thanked by using the capital gained from said art to push the ones who created it out of a job.

Yuuuuuuuuuuuup. I've mentioned before that when I was, like, 10, my IQ was very important to me. The older I've become the more I've recognized IQ is, if not just plain nonsense, then a wildly limited way to understand how one's brain gets along in the world and with other humans.

Please make sure you spread the stories debunking this as far and wide as you did the stories claiming it was true. No one is immune to propaganda, viral apocrypha, none of it. But you *can* say, "Hey y'all, I got *got* and that wasn't true." Be about it for information, not just engagement. 💖

Still trying to understand how Napster got shut down, but Anthropic is going public and still hasn’t paid us authors yet after stealing our work.

Always wondered why the McFarlane comedy about the plush bear was such a big hit in Japan, figured it was just the mascot taking off on his own. But being cv. Kamiya Hiroshi might also explain things. Possibly the most popular voice actor alive, full stop.
Hey, it’s great to meet you! I actually kind of have a thing for older women. :) No, I don’t mind kids, how many do you have? Oh, wow. No, not at all, the more the merrier. What do you mean your living situation is complicated? A shoe, you say. Huh. Well, what’s your philosophy on child discipline
Elon just blasted his home address to his 240 million followers along with his order number and last 4 of his Amex charge card while shilling grok bot. Someone else canceled his order.
I'm not a sports person (shocking) but there's something so utterly delightful about watching my online friends yell about sports on game days. ❤️
LMAO sic semper scalpers. Imagine threatening to sue the creators of Pokemon because their adequate supplying has rendered your price-gouging ineffective.
