Does anyone else physically hurt when someone says Jurassic Park was over 30 years ago? Or is that just me?

If you can help, a friend's dad is going through a tough time. Her grandmother has dementia and they need to sell her home to cover the cost of putting her in a care facility. This will leave her disabled father homeless. Anything helps friends.

I am struggling to find a job. I worked with a YouTuber that talks about Corporate Cringe to update my resume. The dude straight up said my Balthasar(nonprofit) section was so wholesome and jokingly asked if I was a real person... I'm going to need a moment...

Starfleet Officer: Yup.
Me: Cool. So that means you've fully explored Earth's sea floor?
Starfleet: ...
Me: You haven't?
Starfleet: Listen. There's a reason we became a spacefaring civilization.

Henry Wu: We control their chromosomes. It's really not that difficult. All vertebrate embryos are inherently female anyway, they just require an extra hormone given at the right developmental stage to make them male. We simply deny them that.

This is the guy siccing mobs on federal workers and academic researchers, and who gave handpicked “journalists” access to private internal communications.
Sure. Go ahead and give him control over your email. What could possibly go wrong?

It's about a challenge peculiar to game design that needs more attention, imo.
The response to it so far is strong and I'm overjoyed.

Since the beginning. How do I pick just one moment. Maybe Moxley dropping Kenny on his head at Double or Nothing. Oh hell, it has to be being at Double or Nothing and having Moxley come out right next to where we were sitting and I had no idea it was him!
When we all stayed up until midnight for the BTE reveal when The Elite revealed AEW and the logo for the inaugural PPV, Double or Nothing, after their NJPW Wrestle Kingdom matches. 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Day one, baby!!!
What moment or match got you hooked on
#AEW?
Repost with yours.

I went back to X to see some wrestling discourse. I immediately regretted it. Mostly WWE fans make that platform too toxic for any level of enjoyment in talking wrestling there

Hello Blue Sky. How is everyone? I'll just look for the board game corner and maybe the industry corner.
