How funny would it be to give an orc barbarian a breastplate of specially-treated and enchanted livewood and have to deal with the dryad that still lives in it?

rough day for trad cath adult converts who just wanted real life Dark Souls lore rather than any responsibility to do good in the world

Echoing the pope’s moral warnings, Tobin says the “lawless organization” is perpetuating a “machinery of death.”

I should really ask at my next doctor's appointment if they can do anything to get me an ADHD evaluation. Every time someone else talks about the symptoms they feel very familiar, and they've also just been slowly getting worse.

Hey, are you a human artist? Able to work on a relatively quick turnaround? It would be a book cover, single woman with an urban background, Sentai-style costume. Budget is $150, including commercial rights. Please have portfolio. Put the word Ploob in your message to confirm not bot. <3
Okay so for this new project I'll need a sentai-style costume. Lemme just search on my stock photo sites.

Awesome. Now let me just filter out AI:

I propose March 1, 2003
Maybe instead of identifying specific ICE agents who do particularly heinous things, we could just penalize everyone who was on payroll at the agency starting by a certain date.

Hey APub authors who have Amazon works on the rights list--this could give you a LOT more money out of the Anthropic settlement.
HEY APub AUTHORS!!!
Amazon has put up a form where they (non legal terminology) sign over their half of any anthropic settlement money to you. Obvs I can not give anyone legal advice, but check this out. This could give you 2x the money.

No hate to Julian, but the moral messaging in Mr Rogers, particularly him washing a Black man's feet, were controversial. Conservatives have always been giant crying piss babies.
Most of the moral messaging in children's television programming when I was a kid was utterly uncontroversial at the time, and would be attacked as woke indoctrination today.
This is quite literally one of the stupidest human beings alive

Did you know there's been a multi year initiative by billionaires to try to get taxed more internationally, apparently proudtopaymore.org
