Seems unfair that you only get to use the bouncy slide to get off a plane when things have gone wrong. The bouncy slide should be a treat they give to the best passengers who did the flight correctly.

Too bad. I'll do it anyway. "And then Tyrion found Tysha and they lived happily ever after and had 10 babies." Stop me, dead man

George R.R. Martin has said that if he never completes Game of Thrones sequel Winds of Winter (or the book after that), there's no plan for anyone else to step in. Instead, his Song of Ice and Fire series simply "won't be finished."

Well, after many sort of layoffs, I've finally been sent to the big layoff in the sky, so if I've ever written or edited for you and/or you want me to, idk hmu. I promise I will write in full words at such time (and hang onto your enterprise far longer than is reasonable).

Homan: "We gotta stop the hateful rhetoric. Saying this officer is a murderer is dangerous. It's just ridiculous. It's gonna infuriate people more which means there's gonna be more incidents like this."

Gonna start sitting uncomfortably close to people who use their phones at full volume without headphones in public and blast "Never Gonna Give You Up" while staring relentlessly into their eyes and doing the head bob from "Night at the Roxbury"

Ok so when Trump officials said the cop who shot the woman had been dragged by a car 6 months ago, they were clearly trying to imply someone had like charged him or grabbed him but it was him wedging himself into the window while someone tried to run away
www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...
According to an affidavit from an FBI agent, Muñoz was in his car when federal law enforcement approached him. He did not comply with commands to get out of his vehicle and drove away. The feds pursued Muñoz and conducted a traffic stop. An ERO agent and an FBI agent approached the car and ordered Muñoz in both English and Spanish to put the car in park and provide documentation, which he did. When the ERO agent ordered Muñoz to exit the car, he refused. At this point, according to the affidavit, the ERO agent broke the rear driver’s side window of Muñoz’s car and tried to unlock the driver’s door. Muñoz threw the car into drive, speeding off with the agent trapped in the vehicle by his arm and dragged behind the car for 100 yards down the street along the curb, weaving past several cars. The agent was jarred loose from the window, and fell into the street, and Muñoz drove off. The agent suffered serious lacerations on both arms, which required 33 stitches in total to close.

Some of this CES coverage sounds like things a seven-year-old boy would tell you on the way home from school to which you can only respond, "That's great, buddy"

Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up.

I saw the window tracery and immediately made my friends pause the film so I could tell them.

Sure, but hot take, we SHOULD have people in our lives who don't get mad if we ask stupid questions or forget things and who verbally appreciate our suggestions and observations. Key word: PEOPLE. But it sounds like this guy doesn't, and that's maybe the problem

Dec 5th 1937 - Large Marge was born.

📽️📅 Pee-wee's Big Adventure (1985)
4 Screenshots from the movie "Pee-wee's Big Adventure" (1985): First, a man in a plaid shirt gestures in front of a memorial for "Marge" in a warmly lit diner-like setting. Second, a smiling older woman wearing a red plaid shirt sits in a truck, looking directly ahead. Third, the same woman suddenly transforms into a grotesque, cartoonish face with bulging eyes and wild hair, illuminated in stark lighting. Fourth, Pee-wee Herman, wearing a gray suit and red bow tie, reacts with fear while sitting inside the vehicle.
