Mad Dr. Jimbosaur, Espooky.

I’m not a political journalist, so was gladly surprised at the community I found here last night. To Americans anxious about the upcoming elections, a key thing we learned in Brazil that might help you: DO NOT engage with the far-right online. Don’t share rage bait. Amplify your people. Ignore them.

My first 5 TTRPGs: 1. D&D 3e 2. Warhammer FRP 2e 3. Pendragon 5e (my first "completed" campaign) 4. Star Wars d20 RPG (2002 Revised Edition) 5. D&D 4e

LRT: I both regret and resent everything I've come to know about the people and situation that prompted that tweet, not least the existence of the tattoo... but also yeah, that's definitely true about the "partner tattoo" thing.

Cozy, competence-porn murder mysteries. Just a nice, comfortable story about killers who are definitely gonna get away with it because "this is what they do, and they're the best at what they do."

I'm only half-joking when I say I'd like a breakout category of "obligated to use" vs "choose to use." E.g., I "use" Facebook and LinkedIn but I'd rather not, I'm forced to use Facebook for local/school news and LinkedIn for professional news. I wonder how common that is.

If El-Sayed had gone “I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m not actually Muslim I’m fine with deporting them please vote for me” he would just look weak and convince no one. Anti-trans Dems are falling into the same trap.

FYI for my Massachusetts people: This is the way to vote on all of our (sometimes intentionally confusing) ballot measures this year. I'm also a No on 6, since I suspect it will get in the way of raising new revenues for environmental protection, rather than boost that protection sustainably.

LOL, and she doesn't even have the option of pivoting to the "I was cancelled by the woke mob!" grift, since even if she wanted to make hay out of getting criticized for "being incompetent" and "lying about being a lawyer," she couldn't w/out implicitly attacking Trump for firing her. LMAO.

Ars Technica did good arstechnica.com/cars/2026/10...

Look, I'm not a Dodgers hater by any means, but we do need them to get swept out of the playoffs to deny the owners the "LA bought a title!" argument they plan on using for labor-disciplining changes in the next CBA negotiation.

Is this the special where he bombed at the actual taping and re-shoot so hard that he had a severe mental health episode after? Or did he shoot something else since then?

Every clip I've ever seen (against my will) from a DW movie, it's been immediately obvious that everyone involved was previously a "failed filmmaker/writer/etc." Just a series of incompetently constructed shots, high school student film dialogue, and incomprehensible editing.

This is part of the reason why every Medievalist's favorite Medieval movie is 'A Knight's Tale.' Because it's so stylized that nobody in the non-expert press would call it "accurate," which gives the experts room to gush about how well it portrays the *spirit* of the era.

This kind of tracks, given that "getting 'cancelled' for shitty jokes" was the thing that launched his career into the stratosphere.

It seems pretty clear at this point that the Twitter Nazis running this attempted ratfucking were operating under the assumption that the Lindner Center wouldn't issue a flat denial. That HIPAA would require them to say "we don't answer questions about whether or not someone was a patient."

Gunning for the lowest possible box office and critical rating, this is the "best" I've done. lol. tentpolegame.com/m/AYruQAhnP5hu

If this game doesn't culminate in you fighting and killing Jesus, the devs are all cowards.

the blood and soil guys are right to some extent. your heritage and birthright are being forcibly threatened by violent thugs. and that heritage and birthright is called a secular multicultural democracy with vague pretensions towards egalitarianism and lawful order

She appeared when he started dozing off because she's Donald's sleep paralysis demon.

"Oi, I'm proper knackered, innit?"

I'm gonna be rolling the word "Septmenber" around in my skull for a good long while, I can already tell.

The paterfamilias of pedocon theory has passed, leaving Donald Trump as the Senior Pedophile in the Republican Party.

Inside every football fan there are two wolves

TFW you make it to the bathroom and suddenly don't have to go anymore.

If you know anything about the history of Southern Italy, you know that Jimmy Garoppolo is the synthesis to the thesis and antithesis of Tommy DeVito and Athan Kaliakmanis. No, I won't be taking questions at this time.

I mean, having seen the trailers I'd assume OP is referring to the lighting.

lol. Pete Hegseth jumping straight from the War of 1812 to the Cold War. Because he's certainly not gonna say "Send me to fight the Confederates or the Fascists."

Anthropomorphized Boston: "killlllll meeeee"

Changing the line to "Wherefore art thou fucking Romeo" would probably make it easier to parse correctly for modern readers who don't know what "wherefore" means.

Massachusetts: The Home of College Football.

This was my first thought about the story too, that this should've been a story in the Berkshire Eagle or Hampshire Daily Gazette, etc., not a big national story in the Globe.

Revivalist Protestantism and its Consequences

Mamdani's style to this point has been largely "non-confrontational" on stuff like this, but he really needs to step in as the de facto leader of the party in NYC and say he won't work w/ any Brooklyn Dems officers elected or appointed through this corrupt framework. Declare them persona non grata.
