keep your guard up people, it's a friday-ass Wednesday out there
ME: i cast power word ibs DM: not a spell, not a word ME: power word coeliac DM: fine. the orc now has a gluten intolerance and *rolls* is enraged
interesting that the guardian isn't doing a victory lap today. one suspects that some of them have realised they've overstretched but obviously can't say that
how many of you instantly began designing a toilet police uniform in your heads when you heard the term
Absolute state of Falkner and Reindorf in the Times today
crack would have been cheaper but prob less healthy in the long run
Dude who owned it was a long-haired guy in his 30s. Absolutely chill about us teens with barely any cash practically living in his shop after school. he taught us about comics. one day, he said: "distributor gave me these. wanna help me try it?" it was some Magic the Gathering starter decks /2
What comes over, for me, in Wilson's writing about The Odyssey is the kind of passion and fascination for a subject that comes from dedicating your life to studying it and that is inherently more interesting than anything anybody who wants to treat Nolan as a sacred cow has to say.
if i was running aipac I'd be asking what all my money was actually being spent on bc it ain't winning elections

obviously I'd prefer it if the world continued to get incrementally better for our children into infinity but since we can't have that I'll settle for a civilisational collapse in my lifetime
Not lost on me that Singal is reduced to sputtering "Doesn't that make you furious?!" Because of course it's the rage that he trades in, not information. This is a bizarre piece of writing. Transphobia is a weird cult.
I wrote an article that made this point. Jesse Signal got so mad, he created a bizarre fantasy version of me and declared me incompetent entirely based on his own imagination. All because I made the same point as Kevin Kruse.

my favourite bit of the oddessy was where he said "I see peoples. sea peoples" and the inception sound blasted my kidneys out
im not even a dedicated nolan hater, i think he consistently produces blockbuster 5-7/10s in a way that i might in a vacuum even be able to respect, its just his mediocrity in combination with Extremely Annoying people treating him like a peerless genius thats got me acting up
as we saw with Charlie Kirk it’s extremely notable that no fans of Rod Liddle include any of their favourite quotes from him in their tributes
not really surprising that the sort of person who thinks the nyt crossword is a "puzzle" can't work out some other basic brainteasers like "why are all these trannies mad at me"
do you ever come across a trailer for something that you're so intensely already going to see that you get annoyed with it for showing you bits of the movie
admiralcloudberg.medium.com/reaping-the-... the new admiral cloudberg article on the Washington helicopter/jet collision of 2025 is like 2 hours long but so worth it. politicians interfering to create impossible demands on the airport and ATC, the military running an unsafe helicopter route...
I may still be dealing with youtube hell, but there's still a stream at the regular time tomorrow, and also you can read me gushing about how Sudokuvania 2 is probably the most fun you're ever gonna have staring at a bunch of numbers over here: www.tumblr.com/wirewitchvio... ... also these others.
