GAMER YANG WEN-LI: So when you level up, you get +1 ATK, and you feel like you could win any battle. But you also start encountering enemies who have +1 DEF, so everything is the same. And it's been that way for the whole long history of gaming. Gamers have yet to try another way, for all our talk.

listening to the new abnormal, the strokes' 2020 album, and i'm sorry but if you think this album is better than is this it you are absolutely smoking crack

great work by microsoft in making the outlook searchbar so awful and useless that you are basically forced to use the AI if you want to find any of your work emails

Fandom: A Comics Quadrilogy (2021)

Aaron@ajvark.bsky.social · last wk.

@beanytuesday.bsky.social good timezones. If I could make a repost request, could you please repost "Fandom"- A Comics Quadrilogy here? If you don't want to that's okay though.

“a good wienering” appears to actually be relatively recent tiktok-propagated jargon rather than obscure boomerspeak

jacob frey you need to get this city a 4DX theater

tim walz picked peggy flanagan in 2018 to widen his base and it worked quite well! wonder how the people who were attracted to team walz largely because of peggy are feeling today. i'm not gonna be mean, but

*sees first image while reviewing medical bills* what the fuck *sees second image while investigating further* what the fuuuuck (note, this is fine, they're not screwing me, just fucking wild)

i should avoid seeing the odyssey this week because it will look stupid and unimportant compared to seeing end of evangelion in theaters

I’ve voted for the lesser viable evil in every meaningful election in my lifetime. I don’t think I would vote for Angie Craig in a general. And it’s not because I’m a huge Peggy fan or anything

it's interesting how people say "dozens" more often than "tens" because saying "tens" just sounds worse

One thing to add (since it appears Nguyen could shut Folk out of the top 2) - Nguyen surprised me with answers about policies on low level traffic stops & youth interrogation. Essentially said policies aren't needed - prosecutors will do right thing, follow the constitution. youtu.be/3K_sZFx9oLs?...

City Council failed to override Mayor Frey's dumbest veto. Frey is pretending that a perfectly competent, normal guy, and former state representative, Jim Davnie, is unqualified to be appointed to the Minnesota ballpark authority.

Really annoyed by people who throw “open-air” at the start of anything to sound smart. What is an open-air drug market? Are drug markets usually indoors?

union hmong kitchen teaming up with kramarczuk's to create the ultimate state fair corn dog is too good to be true. i generally think we could stand to see more high end vendors taking their own stab at various clichéd state fair foods.

I wrote about this episode earlier this year. I find it pretty funny that Smiling Friends' sly send-up of prestige-thirsty animation has been nominated for an Emmy. joeydaniewicz.com/2026/02/05/e...

‘Smiling Friends’ has earned its first-ever Emmy nomination. The series is nominated for Outstanding Animated Program for Season 3, Episode 2.

Loaded the new Four Tet album into iTunes and it was fine. Put it on my iPod and my iPod went oh hell no. Absolutely not

EmpLemon made a video about Garfield and Guiteau and called it "America's Forgotten Presidential Assassination." Man, they made a whole Netflix series about this JUST LAST YEAR. Wrong! Next!

caught up with the Medalist anime over the past couple weeks and it was SO good, wow. up with with Hajime No Ippo and Baby Steps for best sports anime i've ever seen (Ping Pong and Cross Game banished from this category for being Different Things)

Both Messi and Ronaldo have complimented Trump so it's not about either men's actual politics. Here's my best explanation for this phenomenon: authoritarians think Ronaldo is better because they're fucking stupid

Andrew Martin@andrewmartin.bsky.social · last mo.

Political ideology is the strongest predictor of Messi-Ronaldo preference. Authoritarians who like short-form video are more likely to think Ronaldo is the GOAT.

Some crazy non-car vehicular behavior today. First, bike crossed the pedestrian crosswalk going east at 25th and Lyndale, didn’t press the button or stop at all, almost got hit by speeding into the street out of nowhere.

The New York Knicks have won their first NBA Championship in 53 years, ending one of the longest title droughts in professional sports. 🏆

I think it's bad that Knicks fans are no longer permanently in the NBA underclass but KAT winning is good at least.
