Too tall to be an astronaut Opinions do represent that of my employer, obviously. Suspiciously unavailable during full moons I was in many forms before I was set free
The whole parsec/Kessel Run retcon/explanation was unnecessary. Assuming a standard starting and ending point to the Kessel Run, a shorter distance traveled means passing closer to obstacles: it's not a test of the ship's speed, but a test of the pilot's daring and skill.

My brother referred to the UK's current monarch as "King Prince Charles" the other day and it feels more correct than anything else I've heard that inbred weasel called.
First thing that came to mind was: is steam making an exoskeletal frame? You play Cyberpunk Red a few years back and Lancer in the last few weeks and the word 'frame' gets a certain connotation.
Sneaking into the yard, out of the light of the streetlight with binoculars in hand, hoping to get a glimpse of the moon, like some kind of pervert. There's an eclipse tonight.

There's so much artificial scarcity and SEO tag-bombing in online shopping and social media that you can't trust the word 'rare' anymore, among others. Also does SEO even work when search engines are killing Boolean search and forcing 'AI' that thinks it knows better than you into everything?

Just posted my #1pRPGjam submission for the current jam: You are the Marx Brothers. thepowersmattbe.itch.io/you-are-the-... One player is the director, the rest take on a role of one of the Marx Brothers AS their character in a recently rediscovered "lost" Marx Brothers script.

My favorite Raymond E. Feist quote. I think of it a lot, living in America these days...
Get this, when they're in the dream vision, it's going to happen on a small island floating in the air in the dream space. Very ethereal and faerie-like. No one's ever done that before.
The thing I stepped on in my driveway earlier was not, as I originally thought, a "blood mushroom" but was in fact probably an unripe pluot that a bird or perhaps a squirrel dropped. I'm trying not to be too disappointed.
Back when I played MTG there was a guy at my local store we called the "I could have won if" guy. Because when he lost, which he usually did in spite of being caught cheating more than once, he always said he would have won if X had happened or if Y hadn't happened.

Every year there's a new animal the internet loves, and by day three or five it's so repetitive and saccharine I have to mute its name to keep myself from drawing the collective ire of the groupmind.
Luckily for me, I wasn't illegally downloading music (emphasis on illegally, the school had a Rhapsody subscription), just TTRPG books. Like a nerd.
ThePowersMattBe⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀.@thepowersmattbe.bsky.social · 2mo agoWhen I was in college a bunch of my people in my dorm got hit for using Limewire, $1800 per song uploaded, but they'd settle for $3500 no matter how many. I don't know how much it cost to buy tracks was at the time, but I know it $1800 is many, many times what they were charging.
You wish you were getting as many calls from "Scam Likely" as I am. You fucking wish.
I love hiking, but my best friend always wants to go hiking when it's like 90+ degrees (Fahrenheit) out and actually kind of dangerous to hike (especially when it's near 100% humidity) vs my preference of literally any temp between 40 and 80 degrees.
Today in Mythic Bastionland we met probably our favorite NPC ever: the weird depressed guard who wants to be a knight, who can't die, hates a creature called a Hawkleon, and just wants to get the special cudgel he's been seeing in his dreams that might also be the only weapon that can kill him?
Boomer relatives asked my brother and I to write up some family stories about someone I barely knew, so they're gonna send us what they know, said we could use AI on whatever we want, and I just don't get why they think we'd use AI. I'd rather carve out an eye than surrender my humanity like that

I've been making my own red pepper flakes for a few years, just got this year's plants in the planter (an above-ground fire pit my dad found on the side of the road). Two cayenne plants, a jalapeno, and a tabasco. Was hoping to find mirasol and/or poblano, but nowhere I went to had them.
I quit playing magic over 10 years ago, and almost everything they've done since then has reinforced my decision.

Right up there with "don't vote for anyone who remembers Reagan fondly" in my book

Made the Samwich from @parlorroom.dropout.tv on a blueberry bagel and some eggs and peppers with black garlic and peri peri hot sauce from @hotsaucelady.bsky.social Both were phenomenal. Top tier lunch.
