Dollars to donuts Nolan’s Agamemnon look like a space marine because it’s some Rashomon thing.

I will be doing my traditional Christmas Eve stream tonight for all y’all who need somewhere to hang out, but it will start a little later than normal, exact time TBD.

From the cast and thumbnail I thought Operation Mincemeat was going to be a tense war thriller.

Instead it's the screenwriters jacking off over how important and cool and sexually desirable writers are.

I think I'm cheering for the Gävle Goat this year. Fire's had its turn. Let the goat live. For now.

The weirdest part of Battle for Azeroth is that the Horde version of the Alliance islands is a snapshot of the Alliance story, but the Alliance version of the Horde islands is "and all the Horde leadership are all working with vampires just off screen from anything Horde players see or do."

Western Conference is such a waste this season, reality warping in the gravity well of the goddamn Avalanche.

When are we getting the next Hangman vs Jon Moxley match, two barbecue dads throwing down over when the steaks should get flipped?

How does this fantastic essay still only have 83k views after 6 years?

I’m getting on a plane, so I won’t be able to watch the game awards, and will instead need to engage with them the normal way: from a text summary on Reddit two days later.

God. Damn. Hotel. Pillows.

Alright, hear me out: cozy wargames.

All the fun of gluing tiny parts to plastic models and then painting them, but with 98% less Catholicism.

I really feel like this is an untapped market.

Which has held up better over time:

Soldier (1998) or John Carter (2012)

Wow released their housing and diffused collectables back through all the previous expansions, with a few new reagents specific to them, like lumber for furniture and a preservative for decorative food. Each expansion has their own lumber you get from clicking on trees.

A """funny""" thing I've noticed is that if you see a buckwild and totally made up claim on Reddit and then search that claim on Google, trying to source it, the Gemini AI summary will be like "oh, yeah, that totally happened, and my source is that three hour old Reddit thread you were just reading"

this is how I found out googling "Chicxulub" will summon a png of a meteor to fly across your screen
December 5, 2025 at 2:31 AM
You get all these artistic depictions of the Chicxulub asteroid that have it as, like, this big glowing rock in the sky, like the moon from Majora's Mask, and "oh, what would that have been like!? Imagine the stress!"

But the reality is almost worse.

Very funny how he tries to present “betting on the next head coach at Penn State” as a righteous force cutting through misinformation
The co-founder of Kalshi says: " The long-term vision is to financialize everything and create a tradable asset out of any difference in opinion."

The soldiers in Stargate are shockingly chill about a bunch of bronze age teenagers taking their guns.

When Snake Pliskin freaks out it's just because he's "unreasonably" traumatized by his kid dying playing with his sidearm.

Wild movie.

Feels like a day for putting on Yer Favourites and just crafting away until I bawl by eyes out when Scared comes on deep in disc 2.
