“Sir have you considered it might just be low blood sugar which could be cured by a delicious bowl of Life cereal in any one of several flavors?”

It's not like "oh I got a tyr rune because of some bullshit and then found out it's used by Nazis". It's "I got an SS logo"

boy do I have great news about the world of audio fiction. this is an anthology series, so the episodes vary, but I think the good ones are very good and definitely scratch that firefly itch breathingspace.lawofnames.com

Oh absolutely. Like they’re still guilty, but of the constellation of monsters and grifters and misguided people, they’re the ones I’m reserving my compassion for if they come around.

During the last gas spike in 2022 or so I took my then girlfriend on a road trip to my hometown in the Bay Area.

Gas in the boonies cost like $6.50 a gallon and she kept going on about how crazy it was, but then we left the car in the long term BART parking and spent a week never driving.

Some of them are parents of disabled autistic children who are being targeted by a eugenicist movement that is trying to turn autism into a moral failing.

If your kid is disabled (I know this from experience) you get desperate for there to be a reason for it, even if that means blaming yourself, but that’s a horrible way of thinking that leads you to horrible places.

Wow I never thought I’d have something in common with these guys

Anyways there’s always exceptions. For example, Richard *THE* lionhearted. I’d imagine back then trans species cardiac surgeries were rare. He probably WAS the only person with a feline heart.

When the court has one injunction against you, it’s your problem. When the court has a thousand injunctions against you, it’s the court’s problem.

Did you know you can shrug and say "No can do boss" when a court orders you to do something

It’s honestly wild that American media has “are liberals trapped in a bluesky bubble???” debates every two weeks while a 22 year old groyper White House staffer known as BasedBoss1488 remixes scenes from 300 in a propaganda video for a toxically unpopular lame duck president’s war of choice

I’d rather see someone else tackle the genre of a dusty space western than just see more Firefly.

Give me something new someone who liked Firefly wants to make.

It dawns on me that people assuming just because something has all the information on the internet at its command that would necessarily make it super-intelligent are conflating the ability to retain lots of facts with the ability to actually do something worthwhile and creative with those facts.

“This war will be transformative” is some real monkey’s paw phrasing

I bet Peter Thiel smells like wet ham and that vaguely cat piss smell guys get when all they eat is meat. Y’know, the one that’s a byproduct of excessive protein digestion?

Certeza que nessa versão o Augusto enfia o Paddington numa caixa e traz pra São Paulo pra fazer tráfico de animal silvestre

Lmao yeah they revised those February numbers down a LOT

Honestly why is anybody taking the preliminary numbers this country puts out seriously these days? We always had to revise the job numbers but it used to be we generally revised them *up* a little

That they keep being revised down is telling

This is pretty close to the story as I heard it, actually
