Just throwing this out into the void I guess I make a sincere effort to never intentionally misgender someone, but we all make mistakes and if you notice me inadvertently misgendering anyone I would appreciate a little grace and the opportunity to correct myself

Spent the whole gottdamm day dealing with a relatively minor Social Security issue

On principle I don’t believe you should be subject to legal proceedings for breaking up somebody’s relationship but Sinema is a snake so lmao

I feel like I’ve watched a variation of that game 30+ times in the last 5 years Opponent jumps out to a 10 pt lead early on Hawks cut the led to 7 then get a turnover which sets them up for a TD drive FG for a 3 point lead and grind it out for the rest of the game

What’s that? Michigan benefited from a timing mistake at the end of the game? Gee I’ve never seen that before Except the ‘98 Rose Bowl Go Cougs

It’s kind of funny how John Le Carre is held up as the gold standard of spy novels and the theme of most of his stuff is basically “espionage is not some grand adventure, it’s a miserable job that breaks people and usually doesn’t even matter”.

the “op” is that vance is the most visibly sweaty, pathetic and juiceless national politician in recent memory

Dear European Tourists; The name “Death Valley” is not an exaggeration. It’s a warning for everyone who enters unprepared.

listening to a lot of audiobooks lately and I just came across one where the final book in a series got released like 10 years after its predecessor. same narrator, except in 10 years he forgot how to do the voice and now the main character has a noticeable Boston accent.

Eomer’s charge at Helm’s Deep weakens the impact of the Rohirrim charge t Pellenor Fielss later on Vs No it doesnt

Feel free to correct me if I’m wrong here, but it’s my understanding that basically all Jon Ossoff did was point out how weird the Natalie Harp/DJT dynamic looks from the outside.

FB-advertised products are wild “Here’s something kind of cool, it’s a twist on a common item or product. Also it’s $400”

Trying an Adrian Tchaikovsky book on Audible and I don’t know if it’s the prose or the choppy performance but it’s sliding off my brain and I accidentally took an hour’s nap while it was playing.

One of the more galling things about Trump surrounding himself with pretty young blond Republican women who don’t seem to have any real qualifications is the sputtering indignation when anyone suggests there may be something untoward bout that whole situation.

GO HAWKS

So the steam catapult thing is just because it got featured in every piece of carrier stock footage since Top Gun, right?

“Commas are important”

lol this is literlly cross the street from where I used to get dialysis Not shown in the same parking lot: a Grocery Outlet and a Hobby Lobby

I think the central lesson of Francesca Hong's primary loss is that when the political press wants to make something a controversy, they will. It's a matter of desire/goal.

I’m really feeling the new Shaboozey album

Me: Please give me a map or something or at least label your locations Subnautica: Lol fuck you. En joy the wildlife that’s bigger thn your base, loser. [walks off flipping the bird with both hands]

Why has FB suddenly decided I’m in the market for one of those stupid-ass newsboy hats (aka a “skally”) Also I know they listen in violation of Apple’s privacy settings, because I just got a new mattress (never searched for it at all) and now every d that’s not newsboy caps is for mattresses

The Dobby‘s grave story feels joke that someone at one or more legit media outlets took seriously and now they can’t admit they got took.

Suddenly having memories from Microsoft Flight Simulator, a game in which I invariably got bored and crashed my planes.

America’s air safety is apparently now in the hands of gamers

reading a book and an extremely obvious puzzle involving a pairof important story items appears. everyone: huh that’s weird 10 chapters later: hey guys I just figures out the puzzle!

'don't speak ill of the dead' and 'history will judge them' are mutually incompatible statements

This was released in 2011. The reason you haven’t heard about it before is because it doesn’t fucking work except in certain extremely specific circumstances. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CimaVax...

Anyone who’s been alive since the early 80’s will recall that these people the OP is QTing will trot out this “conservatism is the new punk rock” line every couple years in some vain attempt to argue that they appeal to “the youths” It’s not true, but they desperately want it to be

I mean it’s pretty clear to me that she supports Russia’s actions in Ukraine

i don't care if you think earnestness is cringe. You can be the sneering above-it-all misanthrope, or you can work to change the world for the better. There is no third choice.

At the Republican Women’s Caucus. Truly Inspiring to see hundreds of women in identical pantsuits chanting “Let me check with my husband on that”

I suspect it’s downstream, of the Taibbi-fication of the left punditry industrial complex, but I still find it frankly bizarre how many of these dudebros are exposing such a deep well of toxic masculinity over Platner

Platner very much is a discernible type, but it’s not “flawed but basically decent working class joe.” It’s “prep school creep with a sadistic streak and an ironclad confidence that it will never catch up to him.“

The NCIS franchise is not exactly high art but unlike most of modern TV they know how to light their show

Oh damn glhm deactivated Probably not a bad move given the unwanted attention i wish him the best, he’s done nothing wrong

I dug out an old (60s maybe) kid‘s tricycle from under the deck with an eye toward restoring it (which I’ve never done) It’s metal but it’s definitely seen better days Missing some parts too, such as the handlebars and anything that was attached to them. First thing will be to wash off the dirt

It's a shame that "defend your culture" always means "hate strangers different from you" and never "enact anti-pollution laws so that you can go fishing with your grandkids the way your grandpa taught you."

Like 90% of these are "no fedposting", "please vote", and "peaceful protests are good, actually" accounts. What an odd list for someone who actually did choose to go and try to metaphorically firebomb the walmart.
