Fucker out Of Line

slow zoom on noem's dumb face as "FEE-FI-FO-FUM" echoes through the halls of nuremburg 2

please let it come back soon

they call me the north texas watto

a public utility does not need to turn a profit. this is intentional.

It's amazing what it says about income inequality that the math on this proposal actually works.

on the other hand, zork grand Inquisitor did the blank character on purpose, coining the term AFGNCAAP (ageless faceless gender-neutral culturally ambiguous adventure person) as a pseudonym and it was so funny i still have it committed to memory

ion storm austin seemed to view jc denton having a personality as a necessary compromise, their original idea of the blank "play anyone you want!" immersive sim character just didn't work in practice. i definitely prefer it this way, jc owns

hey mom and dad. it's me, your son or daughter. i'm in a better place now! it's not just better — it's free of all the negatives of the living realm.

i watched scary movie 1 relatively recently (read: like 15 years ago), what struck me is that it actually had a plot and characters as a frame for its jokes, unlike the sequels which have no such frame. it's still not very good but interesting to see that clear decay

Like the neocons, Trump’s neo-neocons repeatedly invoke the West’s complacency and unwillingness to defend its own values, a frailty that can be rectified only through the ritual use of military force against weaker targets. The conservative writer Jonah Goldberg once articulated what he called the “Ledeen Doctrine,” after the neoconservative Michael Ledeen, which was: “Every ten years or so, the United States needs to pick up some small crappy little country and throw it against the wall, just to show the world we mean business.” Despite Trump’s rejection of George W. Bush, MAGA bears many similarities to the right-wing politics of that era—a fetishization of violence and torture, the treatment of opposition as treasonous, a disdain for due process, and an anti-Muslim bigotry at odds with fundamental American principles.

Pundits loved telling you about Trump's "anti-interventionism" because it seemed contrarian and interesting, but he always represented neoconservatism's worst impulses shorn of any moral pretense or concern www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2025/1...

solemnly nodding at this truth

Don’t worry the economy is fine and there’s no reason for people to feel like it isn’t

hi Worf!

is that Worf?

worf?

I want Democrats to start talking about prosecuting Kalshi and Polymarket out of existence and charging their executives for the crimes they are committing every day.

iirc that was an open phone line that anybody could use. i have a couple friends on the lasagna cat call in video

Last week, for the first time in 20 years, a man died from a treatable snake bite on my home island of Martinique. He had asked chatGPT what to do instead of going the hospital. He missed the 6 hours treatable window.

im polypular on line

mister braeighne

just once i want to see doomguy take a moment to pray for the soul of his beloved murdered rabbit

i fell off my yearly lasagna cat rewatch during covid but i think this is a sign to get back on the horse

Hmm. Mmft. Hmmmrt. (sound i make when using every inch of a wall to look for the secret door)

i'm just mad i don't get the necklace that's included

"'Hidden 'Mesaages 'All 'Around 'You" these apostrophes are fucking me up. what is happening

What the fuck are you talking about. Look at the picture. He's a demented racist stroke victim being puppeted around by Nazis between indulging in half imagined, misremembered grifts and grudges from the Carter administration. "Turn things around"?

John Clump (me): no spoilers: yesterday i saw the (a?) big long pivotal late-game death stranding 2 cutscene and holy shit. remedy and kojima productions are the only big devs willing to put so much effort towards things that risk making them look so stupid if it doesn't land, and i love them for it i hope that, for worldbuilding context, there's a flashback cutscene in death stranding 3 to before the death stranding, that's just a shot of the president of the united nations giving a speech, and the speech just says: "the UN general assembly and all world leaders have unanimously voted to hire yoji shinkawa to aesthetic the fuck out of every aspect of global infrastructure. there shall be no building, structure, clothing style, typeface, or device that is not fully shinkawa all the way to its cold metal core. we are paying a premium for the maximum number of extraneous straps on every piece of clothing. if the apocalypse happens, we will be ready."

thoughts now that i'm about to finally about to finish death stranding 2 (no specific spoilers, just broad ideas you'd expect from a kojima productions game)

i'm also, in this specific case, correct >:) i'm so dang excited about this project
