Slay the spire
Picture of the watcher from “slay the spire.” They are wearing a purple robe, and it looks as though wind is whipping around them. Their hair is up, and has a blue tint. They’re holding a golden staff, with a red gemstone set in the top of the staff.

I’d stopped playing slay the spire, but it has sucked me back in.
Image of the starting screen for the watcher character in slay the spire. Picture shows that ascension level 9 is unlocked.

Quest for Glory 4, shadows of darkness.
Still for QfG IV. The hero is chained in a dungeon, about to be “tortured.”

SO YOU SEE, WHITE AMERICANS LOVE SOCIALIST CONCEPTS, SO LONG AS NON-WHITE FOLKS DON'T BENEFIT. THAT'S WHY FDR WAS ABLE TO CREATE SUCH A BROAD COALITION. NOW, ONCE LBJ AND THE VOTING RIGHTS ACT EXTENDED THOSE BENEFITS TO BLACK AND BROWN PEOPLE IT BECAME "BAD."

NOW THAT THEY'VE UNDONE MUCH OF...
Girl explaining meme - A young man is standing and looking into the distance, as though he sees his fleeting life flashing before his eyes. A young woman stands next to him, one arm casually hooked around his neck; the other pointing haphazardly in the distance. She is not looking in the direction of her pointed arm; she is looking at the man, her mouth wide open. He is pointedly not looking at her.

Practical Magic. This is OFFENSIVE to my generation.

This video is misleading. Dogs do not need to be gone from you for days to be this excited.

Chipmunks current record is 10 minutes. I’ll be gone for TEN MINUTES, and he acts like he hasn’t seen me for weeks. It’s the best.

Looking for a basic black bow tie on poshmark and came across... this. Eternity for men not included. I must assume that this seller is shooting for an audience that is not me.
A satin bow tie casually draped on top of a bottle of Eternity for Men. To add to the hilarity, the cologne is face down.

There are a lot of bricks in the road that led here, but the 100-mile border enforcement zone is a sizeable one.

FWIW democrats (at least some) tried to reduce the zone to 25 miles, but the sheer amount of land that is included in this zone (and the number of cities) is staggering.
A map of the United States- the area included in the enforcement zone is light orange, the area not included is dark orange.

I hadn’t seen this movie, so I looked it up on IMDb. This poster is fabulous.
It’s a poster for the Limey. It’s a single frame broken into 4 black vertical rectangular panels against a white background. The scene that’s depicted against the black is entirely in red. Terence stamp has his head down, smoking a cigarette, smoke winding its way up and behind him. A plane flies overhead and palm trees are in the lower left

A parent next to me came into the viewing fully prepared to hate it (based on the preview).

She was openly crying at the end. Just lovely.

Post something from your camera roll that comes up when you search yellow car.

No idea why this pic came up, but is a fun reminder of some interesting research I’d done.
Picture from a museum in Fort Worth. It’s a description of Myrtis Dightman. There are three picture on the left side of the panel- the top one is of him, a black Man, standing in western wear. The bottom two are of him on a bull. Text: "A lot of folks thought rodeo was a white man's game, but those bulls don't care if you're white or black. You could be green, for all it matters. They just don't want you on their backs.” 1935-present Myrtis Dightman is known as "The Jackie Robinson of Professional Rodeo" for breaking the color barrier in professional bull riding in 1964 when he was the first African American to compete in the National Finals Rodeo. Despite competing at the highest level of the sport, Dightman did not always receive fair scores. He would intentionally ride longer than the required eight seconds and keep his free hand far away from the bull to keep judges from giving him lower marks. Dightman grew up on a ranch in Crockett, Texas, where his father worked as a ranch hand. He retired from rodeo in 1989 after 30 years of competing. He has been inducted into seven halls of fame, including: the ProRodeo Hall of Fame, National Cowboy Hall of Fame, the Texas Rodeo Cowboy Hall of Fame, the National Cowboys of Color Hall of Fame and the Professional Bull Riders Ring of Honor. He lives in Houston and Crockett where he mentors black rodeo performers.

Kpop demon hunters. The three hunters are in the foreground dressed in black battle gear and holding weapons. Behind them is a giant poster with them on it; dressed for a performance.

We’ve been consciously moving towards supporting independent media in the last few years. Just got our first issue of the Bitter Southerner
@bittersouth.bsky.social and it’s gorgeous. Pictures don’t do it justice.

I wandered over there just to see how bad it was… 🫠
And this is the top story? Bidens clemency decisions? Headline is “Biden says he made the clemency decisions that were recorded with auto pen.”

Oh and one more that explores colonialism (it tries to lead the player in a non-colonizing way, but you can also pick the ick path), and is super queer to boot:

New addition to the mix - I just started playing slay the spire about a month ago, and it's quickly climbed the ranks in terms of hours played.

My 9 yos shoes after *Two Months.* This is (reportedly) from kickball, but I’m pretty sure he’s the only kid whose shoes look like they’re a chew toy for werewolves.
The bottom of a pair of keen shoes. The shoe on the left has a hole near the toe that is larger than a quarter, and you can see signs of wear and breakage going down from that point. The shoe on the right is breaking, and you can see a point where the rubber has broken away, but it hasn’t quite evolved into a hole.

Raising Arizona.
Pic of Nicholas cage in raising Arizona. He’s been arrested and doing the classic mugshot pose. He’s wearing a red Hawaiian shirt, open in the front, so you can see his white undershirt. A shocking amount of chest hair is visible. His left hand is holding a mugshot placard, his right hand is casually hooked at the top of his jeans. He’s looking directly at the camera, a suggestive look on his face- I’m pretty sure holly hunter is the officer taking his photo, and he’s making eyes at her.
