@applesinmypants.bsky.social Thanks so much for making The Message from Deep Space! It's fast become an all time favorite.
english isn't for cowards. if you're not saying 'torpify,' that's a skill issue. there's no Académie Française telling you what to do. if you try to type 'pallific' and freak out when you see a little red underline, maybe you're not ready to roll with the big dogs.
Pour one out for the Hilton staff who are working perhaps the worst shift in food service history rn.
just watched a redneck eating chicken tikka masala for the first time describe it as “if a country italian person prepared it in a chinese kinda way”
Placeholder assets in a game should look obnoxiously temporary, so obvious that no one would mistake it for the final asset. In past games we've used the doge dog (rip) as an icon, hot pink versions of characters, our CEO's head, etc. If you use a temp asset that seems passable, it may stay there.
"Urza created a robot with a truly human amount of father issues. His creation, Karn, later went on to create his own robot with father issues, and was enslaved by a whole species of robots with father issues. Tragically, none of them could build a dad robot, as fathers hadn't been invented yet."

i guess i’m behind the times, but i don’t know who any of these musicians are on these new year’s eve shows. when i was growing up in the ‘90s we didn’t have any musicians at all
Good morning to Brazilian reporter Manuela Borges, who’s been waiting eleven years for this petty moment. ❤️ 🇧🇷
People missing an important point about folks getting fired for whatever they said about Charlie Kirk: Americans are being conditioned to be snitches on their fellow citizens who don’t toe a party line on what is “allowed” to be expressed. And employers are going along. It’s the new secret police
We have successfully made computers Worse At Math! They are literally Made Out Of Math, so this is quite the accomplishment
The Itch/Steam thing dropped off the trending tab. Therefore it's time to remind you again to swamp the payment processors with more calls. If the call volume dies down in under a week they aren't going to learn their lesson. Make them regret it.
All I think about when I hear people say that it’s bad taste to dance on Hulk Hogan’s grave is that Emmett Till’s monument had to be replaced with a 500lb steel bulletproof monument because white people simply won’t stop riddling it with bullets. So now it just has tons of dents. From bullets.
Jonathan Joss was Comanche and Apache and an openly gay actor. He was murdered while looking at the remains of his dogs at his own house that was burnt down. The killer yelled homophobic slurs before shooting him. This is the real world consequences of the hatred that the right commodifies
New set, new removal stats. And we are in for a relatively standard distribution of toughness stats, with some minor quirks this time. As it is typical, roughly 50% of common creatures in the set die to Shock - but this time 28% are X/1s which is on the high side. 1/10
i recently saw a movie in which some of the characters turned out to be pretty stupid, and it got me thinking. do you think there are any stupid people in real life
subprime burrito loan derivatives, we package them together, create tranches of good burrito debt and bad burrito debt. Then we take the bad burrito debt and take insurance out to cover the losses generated from our bad burrito debt, and oh no my economy
I can't believe we're going to get subprime burrito crisis. www.ft.com/content/6c4b...
I love adding this one data point to economic charts. It works every time.
The 19 richest U.S. households saw a $1 trillion wealth increase in 2024, a rise that exceeds the size of Switzerland’s economy. These 19 households now control $2.6 trillion in wealth — almost as much wealth as the bottom 50% of American households. If this isn't an oligarchy, what is?
