@samreich.bsky.social If you do another Rookie crossover, can I humbly suggest: Paul Robabanko?

Devastating reaction image. Kudos to you for just putting it out there to spread the love, instead of goading someone into giving you the excuse.
(As funny as it would be to reply to this message with that image, please don't, I'll cry.)

I am not generally an anxious person. So tell me why I just became convinced I submitted an extended abstract to a conference and completely left off the works cited list, when I absolutely did include that list? Have I reached a new level of "Did I leave the oven on?"

Dude needed more time in the Mercer machine.

Joe would be absolutely RAPT, and then Mulder would mention The Smoking Man, and Joe would spend 20 minutes insisting it must be salvia.

The episode with a dozen celebrity chef walk-ons would be called Spoil the Broth, and Buzzfeed would write 1200 words explaining that.

@inwadiwe.bsky.social, @umactually.bsky.social Just a quick note of thanks for giving us a glimpse of the No-Fall Action at the end of the Tag Team Episode. It's brought me that much closer to enlightenment.

I had never heard "My hobby is whiskey" before moving here. And then I watched that guy Get Ahead, because it got him into some circles.

Do mine eyes deceive me, or does that romantic warrior's helmet have specialized beard armor?

Same, I think. Once it got cringe, though, I had to get into Maxxlooksing (just window shopping at TJ Maxx).

I thought it was pronounced "do toe," which makes your post sound like someone who has specific boundaries around what he'll allow on Wikifeet.

Currently getting a PhD in exactly this. Demon Slayer ain't great for young'uns. Can back up with evidence if you want to chat.
If you can, steer them toward Nichijou. Get them on comedy instead of power fantasies early.

Thought that flair was "Loli Simp" and got very concerned. That'll teach me to reply without my glasses on.

This rules! I met Megan at NCA this year, but were you there too? We might have talked.
I like your approach of iteratively developing the code for your data. Do you remember how many passes it took for it to be finalized? I'd be curious to hear about your experience.

I'm not gonna listen to this, so I need you to tell me: is there an auto-tuned shofar, or is this a missed opportunity?

Tweet exchange in which a photo of Anne Hathaway is posted by @TheRoyalSerf, to which user @VvSchweetz24 replies "@grok...do your thing.

@Grok replies: Anne Hathaway isn't Jewish; she was raised Catholic but left the church. She married Adam Shulman (who is Jewish) in 2012 and celebrates Jewish holidays with their kids. SHe's played Jewish roles, like in "Armageddon Time."

pretty sure he meant the other thing, grok, but very cool that those are your two things

I'm putting the finishing touches on my comps right now, and I've made so much use of the Phillips, I'm worried I'll catch flak for it in the oral defense. My advisor's been recommending Meme War for a while, but I haven't read it. Maybe I can start once these things are submitted!

I'm sure our Works Cited pages have a ton in common so I don't wanna be the "have you read?" guy, but (have you read) Dale Beran's It Came from Something Awful (2019)? He's kind of been ringing the same alarm bell, in that way that a good pop song makes you feel less alone.

in retrospect, it was amazing how much power people like Steven Pinker and Malcolm Gladwell had at their fingertips in the pre-social media era. They could write an airport book claiming potato chips killed more people than all historical wars combined and it would become universal received wisdom

Blueskydotcom is already the Bobunemimimmi version of academic discourse, so you're on solid ground.

Both the Blake and the DorΓ© give me anxiety, because the level of the frame places the observer somewhere between the observers and the traitors.

Every game of Connect Four is about to look like the end of WarGames (1983).

When you say "exclusively," does that mean, like, 2 out of 2 extant posts, or are we talking on the daily?

Devastating, right?
I actually didn't know there was a way to save him the first time I played, I thought the game was just doing a sad character beat. When I read a walkthrough, I had to start from the beginning. Couldn't live with myself otherwise.
