This is older but I still remember the first time I cleared a tomb in Skyrim and the exit dumped me outside near the top of a mountain, overlooking a massive valley with the night sky absolutely on fire.
Took my breath away

Omg the number of times my wife and I have gotten "but aren't you afraid you're going to die?" when we've told people in her family that we're going to New Orleans/Chicago/NYC/etc
We all live in fucking Houston, and these people are *still* scared shitless of cities

I'm gonna go ahead and say it, I'm glad A&M isn't playing Indiana. I don't have to spend all week dreading that game and I don't have to watch them get absolutely mauled at a watch party

We had a five season long show here premised on the idea that a public school teacher might understandably become a meth manufacturer to pay for their lung cancer treatment. 😭

I freeze ground beef in flat rectangles about 1/2-3/4" thick. I'm just now realizing I could cook it this way and have easy portion sliders

I saw this video of a Vietnam vet in the fur coat yelling at ICE and thought to myself, "this is missing something," before I realized, "Ah, of course, the Ether instrumental. It's so obvious."

This was very likely released by him or someone close to him, and just how utterly broken do you have to be as a human being to believe this video makes him look *better*
