Me, an intellectual TNG fan: “ugh, the amount they aged up recent-newborn Molly O’Brien for ‘Rascals’ strains credulity past its breaking point” My 7yo, a chill dude: “wow, it’s really impressive how well that baby can talk”

If the Democratic Party was a soccer team, they’d kick the ball into their own net because it’s more attainable and tell everyone it’s a good compromise

Joe Biden generational levels of stepping on his own dick

Evacuating all personnel to the saucer section (downloading my faves to a folder) before an imminent warp core breach (tiktok ban)

Today, the New York TImes prominently featured a opinion piece by David French advancing the arguments of Tennessee is banning gender affirming care. French didn't disclose he was a prior attorney for ADF, an anti-LGBTQ hate group working to eliminate all of the rights of trans people.

Now this is a take on BG3's development that I love So many terrible things can be attributed to how publicly traded companies operate: expecting year-over-year growth If an organization just need to be sustainable you can be both more flexible and less compromising when it comes to your values

My grandparents’ farm is deep in rural Michigan, and this is unironically the type of news they still talked about as recently as the 00’s, until the internet came and turned them all into Q-Anoners 😞

Hi friends, I still exist, I’ve just had zero time to scroll social media with all the Baldur’s Gate I’ve been playing.

Mara Sov should use her Ahamkara to leave Destiny and go to another video game. It would be so funny if she was like ok this universe is dying I'm going to go hang out in Baldur's Gate

I feel like people who write newspaper columns keep saying the same thing

I love this website.

it’s monday morning, can we fucking not with the Discourse already

*the atomic clock for when bluesky becomes twitter lurches forward*
