if humans are such perfect creation then why do we all have a 4x4-in square on our back that we can't scratch

Trump: Nuh uh, and also you're the cheesecake factory

maybe we're going to have to start calling it not-so-competitive authoritarianism

lol. lmao, even

and should you find yourself needing to say something nice about your dependent for tax purposes, AI can help with that as well

it's shaping up to be a bad night for the right

Desi supermarkets are like the last place where you can still find good typos in the wild. I bought a package of ghur, aka "plam jaggery"

the endless slaughter of elves and orcs must stop

WE THE PEOPLE OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA STAND WITH YOU ✨🇩🇰✨🇺🇸✨🇬🇱✨

so far this is the only NextFest demo that's grabbed me store.steampowered.com/app/4551060/...

if Alaska gets Democrats from 50 to 51, I can see why Trump wants to mess with and delay certification; but if it's 52 or even 53 will it be worth the effort and blowback

a lot of people seem to be chafing at the premise of Wicker

Spotlight fossil fuel’s dark money corruption and climate denial fraud operations — don’t tell the Little Red Riding Hood story without the wolf. Put the villains in every conversation. Their free-to-pollute subsidy is $700 billion, so they will fight. We must fight too.

as we are all learning very quickly, the conservation about "are video games art?" is more than just academic theorizing

while it is true that the founding fathers wait at the pearly gates to judge new USian souls, they don't do it all together but take shifts. so you're just as likely to get Jacob Broom as Thomas Jefferson

"we gotta do campaign finance reform to get these fuckin politician assholes off my TV" would appeal to a lot of people I suspect

my most specific BioWare opinion is that Veilguard would have done better if they had stuck with a palette that prominently featured blood red, instead of purple

EA's closure of BioWare is transparently a vile move to shutter the studio that made by far their queerest titles. In the wake of this, I implore you: MAKE MORE QUEER ART. Make it trans. Make it horny. Make it scary. Make it loving. Make it with every inch of yourself. Flood the world with it!

if it weren't constantly being propped up by American Media the Republican Party would just collapse

BioWare gets its premier game sabotaged by weird c-suite expectations, then gets destroyed by its holding corporation. gamergate assholes: see, go woke, go broke

Will go to my grave still thinking Veilguard was a decent game and most of the criticism of it was bad faith

when was the last time EA made a game that wasn't utter shite anyhow. I guess buying and closing the last few decent studios in the AAA world is their only strategy going forward

it cannot actually be ignored or danced around that the closure of BioWare came so soon after the Saudi and Jared Kushner acquisition of EA. they absolutely did take the studio making EA’s broadly queerest games out back and shoot it old yeller style. do not let yourself or colleagues ignore that

For me the saddest thing about Bioware dying is it means we'll never get the 1 thing I wanted, which was simply a Dragon Age Origins that can run for more than 5 minutes on Windows 11 without crashing to desktop

Every damn work day

cut their avocado toast budget?

pundits are always saying, "Americans don't like being lectured" well no shit. nobody does. but sometimes it's necessary

If each sentence wasn't produced by the author, it is not academic writing. Academic writing is the expression of one's own ideas and one's own research in support of said ideas. It is intended and purposed to survive peer review. AI is plagiarism or theft of ideas, or both.

Republicans all believe that their stupid unpopular ideas are actually secretly popular and great. So it will be interesting to see how they react

I realize Christianity is diverse and "no true scotsman" fallacies abound but I think if you believe Jesus said "empathy is bad actually" you really aren't part of it anymore

GOP doesn't get the idea that if you can't win a race you can at least lose with a little grace so that when it's over people don't say well good fucking riddance to that guy

I still think it sucks that Tom Petty died

Keep your fucking blood money I don't want it for my kid

ICE OUT OF LONG BEACH

only losers blame the refs

the correct analogy is "less training than someone who works in technical support"

Historians really like the word "capillary" (adjective)

oh you don't say

I'd settle for a reporter asking the president to name five states

once the election is over it will be time for Americans to turn with purpose to the problem of removing our traitor president from power

nothing. I'm just traveling everywhere in the world

given the fact that Trump's press secretary has to be a dumb blonde with dead eyes, I bet it's going Scott Jennings

oh dear, grampy is getting weird and bisexual again

you think a litch is going to give you his phylactery just because you want it

t½ Zachariah = .5 scaramucci

someone *lied* about being a lawyer to get a job in the Grift Administration? you could knock me down with a feather
