the USDA, for no reason:
Screenshot from the show Smiling Friends, showing a close-up of the character President Jimble (a gross live-action man in a stained and disheveled suit and tie) speaking on a video announcement. His speech is captioned: "Sorry, I didn't mean to do that." Another screenshot of Jimble, continued: "Everybody's gonna have to give back all that money."

RIP, one helluva run though

genuinely it might be a good idea to reach out to a herpetologist to let them know, seems like Jake might be a record

it inspires a little pang of sympathy in me to see the Fascist Thought Leader class realize in real time that the ideological base they're trying to mobilize is genuinely dumber than dogshit. everyone in the comments is losing their shit at him for saying this
Screenshot of a Twitter post by captive dreamer @avaricum777, whose profile picture is David Koresh in a MAGA hat. He says, "This is why talk of "Shariah Law" is so tone deaf and stupid", and quotes a tweet by matt @mattxiv, which says "so it's 1am and zohran just showed up at the gay bar", with an attached video of Zohran Mamdani on the mic at a gay club.

Screenshot of a Discord message from ithinkiplaygames: "I hear they're callin' it the "The Department of War" now… Heh, y'know, I s'pose I appreciate the honesty. "Department of De-fense" never rolled off the tongue for a real warmonger like me. 'Course, I do worry about that kind of talk comin' straight from Washington. War's in our nature, Jack, but a lotta folks ain't ready to accept that. They need that "defense" blanket to tuck themselves in at night, make 'em feel warm 'n' fuzzy while they hire PMCs. But a new name ain't gonna stop the war economy, Jack. And business is BOOMIN'! Yoo-kraine, Israel, Myanmar, Sudan, Congo—'n' soon we'll be sellin' for the war in Venezuela, heck, even the war in Chicago! Don't matter too much what yahoos are at the top when you got some good wars cookin'."

i still can't believe how much he's obsessed with this "warrior ethos" shit. it's 2025 and the US secretary of defense is a guy who probably genuinely thinks "Medal of Honor: Warfighter" is a cool-sounding title for a video game
Xbox 360 cover art for the game Medal of Honor: Warfighter, from 2012. It shows a very generic "operator"-looking soldier holding a very generic tan AR-platform rifle, with the title superimposed in a very plain off-white sans-serif font. The game is rated M for Mature, was developed by Danger Close, and published by EA. Overall, the whole cover is maddeningly muddy, beige, and forgettable.

i know this is not the most important part of the story, but this rise in shooters (allegedly) writing messages on their ammunition is that no one in this gun-obsessed country seems to know very basic gun terminology

the full unit is a CARTRIDGE. guns fire BULLETS and eject CASINGS
Diagram titled ""Bullet" - vs - Cartridge". It shows two rifle cartridges: the top one has a cross-section cut out to show the propellant inside, which is labeled "Gun Powder". The brass piece surrounding the propellant is labeled "Casing" and the pointed projectile coming out of the casing is labeled "(Lead) Bullet". Below this is a rifle cartridge which has not been cut, labeled "Cartridge".

to be clear, i don't just mean that this is some big "screw the audience" joke on Toby and Fangamer's part, i mean that the frustration of not being able to play this stuff is like… the whole point. it IS funny but there's a thematic and artistic statement being made here
A collage of 4 screenshots from the Undertale 10th Anniversary livestream, showing a series of 4 dialogue boxes from a lumberjack character who was not in the original game. They say: " * … sometimes I forget, there's a whole world where you ain't lookin." " * … a whole world of people you never talked to." " * A whole world of places you never went." " * Even if you went all over, you'd never go everywhere."

look on some level i get why people really desperately want this to be a big tease for some sort of Undertale anniversary update. but also: you all do understand that that is Not happening, and that they have been very clear about this, right
Starting screen from the Undertale 10th Anniversary livestream, showing the anniversary logo (a small white dog playing a game console in front of a large boxy TV set) above text. Large red text: "!!! WARNING !!!" Smaller white text: "This version of UNDERTALE has been slightly modified especially for the stream. Enjoy a slightly special UNDERTALE experience." Screenshot from the Undertale 10th Anniversary livestream. 3 men are sitting on a couch in a set representing the Ruins from Undertale, alongside a large Toriel plush and a smaller Annoying Dog plush (representing Toby Fox). Text superimposed on the screen (coming from Toby Fox) says "if there will be new content it will just be special for the strream [sic] though"

so i got a hole in the leg of these jeans, and I did a repair with my sewing kit but it's pretty crappy. anyone have ideas on how to improve it
Close-up of the lower thigh section of a pair of dark blue jeans. It has a rough, oblong hole in it approximately the size of a penny, which has been repaired by weaving grey thread horizontally and vertically across the hole. The handiwork is fairly amateurish, albeit serviceable.

that being said, i do think it's funny how the mob votes just literally never produced a good result. Phantoms, Glow Squids, Allays, Sniffers, just 0 for 4. Armadillos are like, fine, but that's only because all the choices in that vote sucked

DOG ARE YOU FUCKING JOKING. WHAT AM I EVEN SUPPOSED TO DO HERE
A screenshot from the game Hollow Knight: Silksong. The player character, Hornet, has 1 health remaining. In front of her is a cocoon, which needs to be hit in order to recover the money she had when she died last; however, it is hanging precariously over spikes, with no clear way to access it.

okay maybe it's not so clear-cut. anyone who can be successfully convinced to do anything by a Utahn youth pastor is probably not really a member of "the left" lol. yet another win for ideological incoherence
Screenshot of a live news update from the Associated Press: "2 min ago Suspect's father recognized him, AP source says By Lindsay Whitehurst Robinson’s father recognized him from images released by authorities and encouraged him to turn himself in, a law enforcement official told The Associated Press. He refused at first, but then changed his mind, according to the official who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss an ongoing investigation. His father reached out for help to a youth pastor, who helped Robinson turn himself in."

okay i'm not above facing the facts, this guy is probably broadly "one of ours" on the left—even if he might not be a fully committed ideologue—rather than an outright groyper or something

it is funny that they really initially thought the Helldivers ⬆️➡️⬇️⬇️⬇️ was "transgender ideology" though lol
Screenshot of a tweet by Minilux @Mt_St_Pewter, replying to @postoctobrist: "The one that killed him was the "notices bulge OWO what's this?" bullet." Attached to the tweet is a screenshot of a live news update from the Associated Press: "17 min ago Details of messages on bullet casings revealed By Seung Min Kim Bullet casings discovered by investigators had several inscriptions engraved on them, Cox said. The casing that had been fired read: "notices bulges OWO what’s this?" • Cox said there were three unfired casings: • One read, "hey fascist! catch!" with an up arrow symbol, right arrow symbol, and three down arrow symbols. • Another one read: "oh bella ciao bella ciao bella ciao ciao ciao," Cox said. • The third fired casing read: "if you read this you are gay lmao.""

silking on my song for a little bit rn

i really like the very clear game design statement that's conveyed by this very basic setup in the starting area: "if you can figure out how to exploit game mechanics in clever ways to get stuff early, we'll reward you"
A screenshot from the game Hollow Knight: Silksong, showing the player character Hornet in the starting Moss Grotto area. Hornet is jumping into the air, ready to execute an attack against a nearby flying enemy, while a glowing, shiny Mossberry item hangs tantalizingly overhead.

amazing section in my social work textbook
A screenshot of an inset section within a textbook page: "KEY FEATURES OF THE SCIENTIFIC METHOD A mnemonic for remembering some of the key features of the scientific method is the word trout. Think of catching or eating a delicious trout [footnote, marked by a superscript 1], and it will help you remember the following key features: T Tentative: Everything we think we know today is open to question and subject to reassessment, modification, or refutation. R Replication: Even the best studies are open to question and need to be replicated. O Observation: Knowledge is grounded in orderly and comprehensive observations. U Unbiased: Observations should be unbiased. T Transparency: All procedural details are openly specified for review and evaluation and to show the basis of conclusions that were reached. [footnote] 1 If you are a vegetarian, you might want to just picture how beautiful these fish are and imagine how many of their lives you are saving."

it always makes me happy when i search twitter for something like this and am immediately and thoroughly vindicated by the results i find
A screenshot of some Twitter search results for the query "bernie "fire emblem" or", dated to October 2019. Of the 5 visible results, 3 of them are people who are not sure whether tweets they see about "Bernie" are referring to the character Bernadetta from Fire Emblem: Three Houses, or to Senator Bernie Sanders
