Ok apparently Parsons turned 21 last month but the joke is still funny

oh nothin, i was just buying some ear medication for Kane Parsons... LOWERS SHADES TO LOOK YOU DEAD IN THE EYE who's 20 by the way,.

Depicting Jewish people with horns is a centuries-old, dehumanizing, antisemitic trope. Democratic Gov nominee Phil Weiser is outspoken about his mother’s birth in a Nazi concentration camp, his family members killed in the Holocaust, and the threat posed by antisemitism today.

A technology that I think we should have by now are goggles/app that shows what a historical site looked like in its prime in real time. Like you look at some old castle and you get a fully-rendered view of it when it wasn’t a crumbling ruin

im fucking crying pls just watch this

Morrowind mod called “Lessowind” and it’s a total conversion where you got to a 1/4 size Vvardenfell and the main quest is heavily abridged.

That shadowy place way out there? That is beyond our borders. You must never go there. That is the Big Boy graveyard.

No longer content with pillaging intellectual work and dismembering our environment (already critically weakened), AI companies are now hellbent on destroying books galore including rare editions. Shut down these nefarious enterprises already.

NEW: In a stunning admission, the Trump administration admitted in court documents that it canceled billions in energy grants to states "based solely" on politics -- and whether that state was represented by Democrats and backed Harris in 2024. www.nytimes.com/2026/07/24/b...

I’m sure kikatsugan “shinobi ration pills” were made and were real, but the stories about Ninjas lying in wait for multiple days at a time to strike their targets have to be made-up bullshit to scare people into thinking they were more hardcore than they actually were

The anti trans crowd was outraged by this study because it included clinicians who actually practice gender affirming care. Yet another systematic review that follows Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Utah, and Louisiana that finds this care is safe and effective with rare regret.

Another historical inaccuracy from Nolan—IMAX had not yet been invented in the Mycenaean period, so this is not the aspect ratio that people saw in! Smh
