Probably mostly going to post about movies, video games, and Minnesota sports.

Got a notification from Facebook that they removed a post of mine. What was it? A pic I took ten years ago of a big hunk of snow on a sidewalk that I kicked and broke. Their dumbass ai thought it was drugs.

Sometimes my yearning to not be at home conflicts with my absolute loathing of being around people I don't know. Just a bad time for everyone involved.

I'd been curious about the Monster Hunter Stories games but never could pull the trigger. Then I played the demo for 3 a week and a half ago. I have now beaten the first one and am well into the 2nd. Plan on continuing my 3 demo save when the full game releases. More games should have demos.

The previous post was brought to you by how good A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms was, which anybody reading this should (re) watch.

Rewatching Game of Thrones and it really does drop off in quality in season 5, but also still has some banger episodes like Hardhome.

Ashley has raised millions upon millions of dollars for Minnesota. Our actual mayor has done nothing but go on TV.

Today we are launching a new intitative of Stand With Minnesota—KeepMNHoused.com, a rent-relief campaign backed with a $1.5 matching fund from the Wilson Foundation. Thousands of MN families are at risk of eviction because of the ICE occupation’s lasting impacts. We can keep them housed.

"We're all throwing dildos at women athletes to promote our memecoin" really puts a fine point on not just how sexist, mean and stupid so much of right now is, but also the grim degree to which we're just inundated with Stuff a 15-Year-Old Dipshit Would Think is Cool. A confederacy of Beavises.

“AI will help with pointless interactions like item descriptions and NPC barks” if it’s pointless it shouldn’t be in the game. If there’s nothing interesting about something, cut it

I got permission to share this, and I'm extremely grateful for that. The Onion got this letter from one of our subscribers in Alaska. She works with dementia patients and decided to leave a copy in the car for each one. This email made my year. Read it and you'll see what I mean. People are good.

Apologies for the radical pinko commie talk, but I too think everyone in the world deserves health care.

WATCH: @katmabu.bsky.social blows Jennings’ mind by saying “everyone deserves health care” Reminder: this is how it is in every other developed nation, where the cruelty of the Republican Party has not killed universal health care on behalf of the insurance companies. #MedicareForAll
