without downloading any new pictures where are you at mentally

That’s not the rule and you know it.

Just got confused about some new game speculation I just saw which was wildly off base. Then I (luckily) remembered that the reason I know the answer that the fandom is speculating over is because of my job, and I am NDA'd up the wazoo about it.

Just a silly edit🤭 Who broke it - Horizon version #HorizonForbiddenWest #Edit #Aloy

Made it with only one minor over-stimulated tantrum (mine), one implication that I don't contact her enough (hers), and an ungodly amount of snacks from B&M (shared).

decided I'm going to start presenting my Taskmaster stats in the manner of an American posting provocative opinions about sports "Hugh Dennis was low key one of the best objective taskers ever but y'all aren't ready for that conversation 🤔🤔🤔"

I have reached entirely new levels of exhaustion. Still have to collect mum, host her all day and take her shopping. Then have to drive to London and back 2 days in a row and then MAYBE I might get to rest for a few days. Still got up early and did laundry and mopped my floors though.

For #Pride month they have officially revealed a design for Mitch's boyfriend in Paranorman. INSANE. I love it. youtu.be/P4UCcm3sqv8?...

I've been trying to find a dress for a wedding and, let me tell you, EVERY list like this is made up by people who have never been to a wedding in their life.

All the Basic Dad present makers: So we need to show he's a little bit quirky, we thinking Star Wars? Star Wars stuff, yeah? Not anything with any of the heroes of the films - the stormtroopers. The faceless nazi horde. Dads love those.

Ireland, that most literary of countries with the most poetic version of the English language, choosing to ignore all its homegrown brilliance & slop up workaday words-by-numbers as its own face. Choosing to promote itself in a way that undermines one of the very things the world loves about it.

Someone, somewhere is furiously adding subtitles to that Downfall Führerbunker clip.

ANYONE who thinks ANY group should accept fewer human rights than everyone else is totally unfit to serve as an EHRC commissioner.

Some of ya'll can't handle 2 high agency males going at it and it really shows

Remember that tiny violin story about the banker who had to cut down from five holidays a year? The Telegraph has admitted that they were hoaxed, and OH MATE.

Some of y'all can't handle 2 high agency males etc

Bluesky right now:

This is like PigGate if a, the yanks were also enjoying PigGate & b, PigGate were happening in real time through the posts of an increasingly blotto SamCam - and SamCam was also somehow the richest person in the world & responsible for innumerable deaths

If you had told me the bitchiest moment of Pride Month would be this...

If you’re overstimulated, please report to the Bluesky cooldown tent where we have orange slices and someone who doesn’t understand the concept of jokes waiting for you

Lol this is like Caligula getting into a fight with his horse

He didn’t like a series of comic misunderstandings and I was Frasier and Niles Crane hosting a fucking elegant black-tie soirée.

what else can you even say

the thing about the Trump and Elon fight is that never before have two people so a) high profile and b) terminally online gotten into a feud like this before this is basically the best thing that's ever happened to very online politics sickos, which describes roughly 97% of this website

Totally normal I had to Google 'stop outlook doing this annoying thing' three times today. And the (ignored) AI result for each query essentially made up answers that didn't exist. Meanwhile pressing reply for an email involves a full on 'where's it moved to now?' search.

There was a paper I read years ago about how fandom labor basically divides into two categories: knowing things and making things. And it was gendered. Men know things about the Thing, women make things based on the Thing.

I think a lot of people don't understand that in a world where everyone uses "AI" to vomit out statistically average text, the ability to use words uniquely becomes a premium skill and a critical differentiator.

Renaming ships at all is guaranteed bad luck. What a way to torpedo morale among the most superstitious branch of the service.

Mathew Baynton!

I can’t tear my eyes away from the director general of MI5, also known as Evil John Mulaney.

'I just think it sounds weird and forced, you going 'when the rain wash-ES you clean.' 'OK, well, it's my song, suck it up.' 'Also, thunder doesn't *only* happen when...' 'God! I hope this is the most acrimonious day we, Fleetwood Mac, will ever have.'

See, I always love it when a film throws a bunch of money at a couple of academics like this. Fuck yeah Professor Adler, go hog wild in the set shop being uptight about the color of the stone walls

Ghost of Tsushima might be the game I'm actually best at? It just feels so natural - I'm at 50% and already considering upping the difficulty as even the mythic boss fights have me barely breaking a sweat.

The perfect bird feeder doesn't exi--

When I was 15 and starting my internet journey I had no idea my birth year was going to become a white supremacy dog whistle. Forever paranoid my ancient usernames now look racist.

This thread is an infinitely better explanation of Kobo's AI policy than the (really not very helpful) post the other day. The specificity is absolutely necessary.

San Diego neighborhood makes ICE agents retreat

Jonathan Joss, known for King of the Hill and Parks and Rec also played Robert Rainwater in Cyberpunk 2077. He was a great actor and my heart goes out to his family and partner. May homophobes rot and burn.

I love how a decade of reinventing TV later we’ve ended up with “Brits just want to watch old ITV dramas and Channel 5 documentaries but they don’t know where to find them until you let them just hit the big Netflix button on their remote”.

no words for how evil and tragic this is
