β€˜It’s done wonders’: trading card game featuring middle-aged men revives Japanese town Ojisan trading cards bear the faces of real people – local men whose competing professional qualities determine the outcome of each game

I cost 200 mana points to summon, but on your next turn I conjure a pack of small, highly annoying dogs that do 1d6 damage each and cannot be targeted.

I'd vote for him.

I've got a feeling she'll win her day in court, but the fact that those feckless choads would even try it is a bad sign.

The idea of "living up to one's potential" has done more psychic damage to me than any other abstract concept except masculinity

Those two are a terrible choice for the face of a movement, why would you choose two sickly looking individuals who are at risk of being swept away by a strong gust of wind as an example to aspire to?

They've been signaling a willingness for violence from the start. Why else would so many first term anti-trump protests be met with "support the 2A" counter-protests?

A note for people with certain philosophical leanings: If the dominant forces in the economy are able to dictate your choices this way, you're no freer than if the government was doing it.

An Alarming Number of Gen Z AI Users Think It's Conscious The majority of young people use AI, and they try to be polite when interacting with chatbots like ChatGPT, but some might have too much of an attachment to it, according to a new study.

Crying, shaking, and vomiting as I rock back and forth repeating "don't catch feelings for anything that doesn't have a pulse" like an insanity mantra.

I said what I said. My condolences for that lady's dead wall-husband though. That's gotta be rough watching your spouse go out like that. πŸ™

After posting "Don't catch feelings for anything that doesn't have a pulse", I was reminded about the old "humans will pack bond with anything" thread.

We are 100% screwed if Skynet makes Terminators cute and sneaky. Wall-e with a brick of C4 in his stomach could easily end half the population.

The most painful thing about life is how powerless we are to correct the ignorance of the world.

No matter how much I try to educate people, they go on thinking that the Iguanadon is a cool dinosaur. Igaunadon sucks. There are like 50 better dinosaurs, easily, come on.

Rule #1: If it doesn't have a pulse, don't catch feelings or try to have sex with it.
