Chris thinks imperialism is bad

The martial arts scenes in It’s A Wonderful Life were a key influence on The Matrix

Ken Marshall having that role and Eddington in DS9 is just a fucking fantastic career

It would "come up in conversation" completely organically at least once a week for the rest of my life

A Christmas Story? Scarface? Return of the Jedi? Nah, it's Krull

Bush et al were too dumb to realize what possible negative consequences of their actions might have. This administration is too dumb to realize there would be any consequences to their actions at all

So Philip Glass just joined TikTok. He only has like 4 posts and they’re simply him in what I assume is his living room playing the piano. First comment on one I saw was “your piano is too close to the fireplace, you’ll dry it out” and if that’s not the internet in a nutshell I don’t know what is.

Violating the 1st Amendment and the 3rd Commandment at the same time! I can't decide which of the prophets I want to read at Hegseth through a bullhorn all day every day until his ears bleed

Words have no meaning, apparently

things every single republican president of your lifetime has done

- started a war in the middle east
- completely destroyed the economy

There’s very little that can get me to root for the dirty birds, but this is one of those things

UTSA baseball is beating (the devil) Baylor 8-0 in the 5th and I’m laughing and I’m laughing

At D&D tonight, our cleric starts to opine to an NPC about his religion. Again.
The rogue: “Jesus Christ!”
Me: “Wrong god”

It dawned on us why we watched so much Olympic coverage. It's not just that Peacock lets you go full pervert mode now. It was two weeks of sports... without gambling ads. It was glorious. -OS

The question we should all be asking

Making this into a magic item for my D&D campaign

Dad keeps getting drunk and setting fire to your bedroom but you don't care for some reason

I've been mildly depressed about college basketball this year and have been trying to pretend it's not happening, so you could have told me anything and I'd have believed you, 😂

Dayum

my local park is full of hundreds of snow sculptures and someone has been adding museum labels

Imagine being a blue whale swimming around and just ... everything is food, you're swimming through food, all the time

Like living in a big bowl of soup

Dudes rock

BISD must have mostly stopped that by the 80s. I remember posters in my elementary classrooms with the various bell patterns on them for different types of emergencies but I don't remember actually doing any drills other than fire drills

I get unreasonably excited when I find out someone besides me watched this

Respectfully, fuck that guy

I find adding something (increased prayer, reading the Bible, volunteering, whatever works for you) necessarily decreases time for screens and makes the time a little more manageable and meaningful. Make Lent a positive practice!

Perhaps the most polite and restrained thing possible to say about it

Alysa Liu wins the Olympic gold medal for the United States YouTube video by Olympics

I urge you to stop what you're doing and watch Alysa Liu's free skate from yesterday. I have never seen anything like this. I understand why sports writers are born now. I have never seen anyone as free from the burdens of this world as this pierced Oakland girl spinning to Donna Summers.

I just have like a million pictures of my dog. She is a good listener though
