This thing needs to be returned to the sunken city of R’lyeh where its non-Euclidean freakiness came from.
This is the most horrific trophy I’ve ever seen. It looks like a cursed object found in a desert crypt.

Me talking to Spawn III while he watches this video: I don't know if you're at the point in the video yet where it becomes clear that this family is white as a piece of paper
Spawn III: Oh, I knew that when I saw the picture. Been operating on that assumption since

I've been seeing the disk horse re what actor's ouerve we would pick for our only viewing going forward, and I have to say that most of the answers are great but do not sleep on David Strathairn.

Even by the standards of The Atlantic, this is an extraordinarily weak evidence base for an article.

@gpatrick.bsky.social I am building a playlist around Bitin' List by Tyler Childers. So far I have Off You Go by Dang, Goodbye Earl by The Chicks & Janie's Got a Gun by Aerosmith. I think you can see the pattern here, what should I add?

"Perhaps this is behind the burgeoning genre of opinion pieces in which a rightwing man complains that women don’t want to date him. Often enough, he is an avowed libertarian, leaving it a mystery why he does not simply accept the workings of the free market."

What could be putting young women off marriage? It really isn’t that much of a mystery | Naoise Dolan
Survey data suggests more and more girls can’t imagine getting married, while their male counterparts are keener. That disparity holds a clue, says writer Naoise Dolan

Seattle and Portland area folks:
These two sweeties need a new foster home by December 12th. One boy, one girl, both fixed. They’ll come with food, toys, and litter (also a cat playpen if you want it).
Would really appreciate any shares to cast a wider net.

This thread absolutely makes me want to watch Pluribus EVEN MORE, just saying
this reminds me of the Bridgerton response and how people were so confused that the main characters *changed* after season one, like writing essays about why that was a bad choice
which seems like a logical thing to them, but an *insane* thing to say to anyone who understands genre romance.

but this? shut the fuck up. guess what, my man, gorgeous young 22 year olds like to fuck. And queer people deserve love stories that are sexy and horny. a "chaste kiss" please be for real.
