don't want to anchor into discourse i think is, uhhh, let's say unpolished in messaging, but a lot of games are NOT well written, and if they also have force pacing because of voice acting, i'm likely to mute that and listen to something else. the pacing or writing loses me, not my "attention span"

this is JCO or atwood level satire material
"The family sold their land in Texas and found a settlement outside Moscow run by a pro-Russia online influencer and American expat living in Moscow who is sponsored by the Kremlin-controlled TV network Russia Today."

They left Texas for Russia to escape 'LGBT indoctrination.' Turns out, it sucks.
Their Texas towns had too much "DEI" and "LGBT indoctrination." So they moved to Russia and became influencers.

If you are able to, you could celebrate my birthday with me (I'm 40!) by giving money in the #mutualAid tag or to a food bank near you. Or if you're out and about, find a Little Free Pantry near you and drop off some Spaghettios etc. They are a superfood (they are not)

it means a lot and seems very intentional that governor stitt mentions christianity twice as part of a statement on commutation. in 2025, it's dangerous to your public image and career to be a christian with actual christlike values like compassion or forgiveness.
BREAKING: Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt stops the scheduled execution of Tremane Wood today, commuting his sentence to life without parole.
In doing so, Stitt accepted the recommendation of the Pardon and Parole Board. This is Stitt’s second death-sentence commutation as governor.

Wholesome: For years my older brother and I swapped identical Borders gift cards for Christmas, wrapping them in increasingly elaborate and incongruous packaging, and saying “I love it!” when the inevitable prize was revealed. This made my mom feral, which only added to our joy.

i’ve said this before and i remain convinced it’s true, the 2028 platform that would deliver obama 08 results is “i am gonna
bring the hammer down on the corrupt self-dealing politicians and their rich friends and there are no sacred cows id give a pass”

i've been listening to an audiobook, and the kirkus review says part of it is "cringe." if kirkus called my book cringe i would do this same thing. i'd burrow into the earth and never come back
if joyce carol oates accused me of *not reading* in a public forum you would literally never see me again
you know if Joyce Carol Oates nuked me so thoroughly my first thought would be "Wow JCO noticed me!" and then I would withdraw from public life and reinvent myself so that no trace of the old me remained!

Dallas fans chanting "Fire Nico!" enough that it's actually happening is basically witchcraft, which I mean as a compliment.
BREAKING: The Dallas Mavericks are expected to fire Nico Harrison, sources tell The Athletic.
The former Nike executive drove the decision to trade Luka Dončić to the Los Angeles Lakers eight months after Dončić led Dallas to an NBA Finals appearance.

finally got to watch "Who Killed the Montreal Expos?" and also loved it -- this team embodies so much of the 90s baseball zeitgeist (almost all bad). robert is a cubs fan, i will never be one, but this documentary also made me proud of teams like the cubs who have STAYED in their historic stadiums.
I have never jumped at reviewing a film quicker. The Netflix documentary WHO KILLED THE MONTREAL EXPOS is totally my jam. It's a heartbreaking tribute to a fanbase that deserves to get their team back.

okay, i understand tom felton has been "cringe" for a while, i don't see his social media so i believe you. but, after seeing the hillary lin manuel panel flier going around, regular cringe is fine with me i think
