Not that I'm really all that into pokemon cards (but I will cop to being "gen wunnerrrrr" about it), when did they change the borders to silver from yellow? It sucks and I don't like it.

I know this is about spying, but on electricity side all the TVs were on "standby" instead of "off" and some drew nearly as much energy on standup as when fully on lol.

Take a break from being depressed that everything you love is being destroyed by slop for a moment and let me tell you about the beautiful symbiotic relationship between graffiti writers, train yard workers, and model train enthusiasts.

It's such a tragedy that men that are worried they are not attractive turn to incel stuff and looksmaxxing when the automatic, foolproof buff is "be a firefighter".

Just got outta the TERMINATOR 2: JUDGEMENT DAY 35th anniversary rerelease and Jesus Christ, man. What a movie. They had to do all that shit for real. They had to fly that helicopter under an overpass. They had to blow up that building. They had to find an actor who could turn into liquid metal.

There are endless studies showing this and also the financial and societal benefits of universal basic income and or housing-first policies but the U.S. never goes for any of it because it would require allowing the poor to receive benefits that the rich consider “undeserved”

“A single-payer universal health care system could cover every American, save more than 100,000 lives a year, and still cost $1 trillion less than the system it would replace, according to a new preprint study led by researchers at the Yale School of Public Health.” ysph.yale.edu/news-article...

Been trying to blast through Path of Radiance before Fortune's Weave releases and just now finding out that I have been conflating PoR and Radiant Dawn as the same game all this time and didn't realize RD was a sequel. 🤪

This for real though. I'm in my 30s now, but my parents had this horrible attitude towards pop culture where they never once introduced me to anything on purpose, and then would be surprised that I didn't know jack shit except for things that were referenced in The Simpsons.

Counterpoint, Parents should participate in curating fun things to watch with their kids, both reliving nostalgia and passing on appreciation to the next generation.
