Just an FYI for anyone playing Switch 1 games on Switch 2 using backwards compatibility: you might see some performance gains (mostly frame-rate) but nothing else unless the devs specifically enabled better visuals for the platform. It doesn't happen magically.

Flatting a bar scene with so many liquor bottles behind the bar I'm getting flashbacks to when I worked on 100 Bullets pages. #Comics #Flatting

A UBC student has raised $3,000 to make a billboard that says “Abortion is safe, normal and common” to counter the anti-abortion billboard messaging that peppers the Okanagan region. But she’s stumped on where to post her message. @michellegamage.bsky.social reports. 🪧

Trump and Musk should settle their differences like men, with a duel: flame-throwers at five paces.

Misheard what was being screamed at the #Oilers game... they were repeatedly shouting "We want the cup." My deaf ass was hearing it as "Im-Ho-Tep" 😳🤣

I talk to a lot of folks who wonder to to get started with D&D. Today, Wizards of the Coast is offering a free adventure with almost* everything you need to get started and will show you how to run it. If you've always wanted to try it invite some friends over and get rolling *Friends not included.

Several camping trips from Toronto to St. Petersburg, Florida. One large map of the east coast of the US, with the route marked with a highlighter, along with second large map of Florida, again with routes marked with a highlighter.

If they;'re going to rename the naval ships, they should name some after Trump and his administration. The USS Lying Sack of Shit just rolls off the tongue. Who wouldn't love the USS Couch Fucker?

Hey shit-for-brains: People can make hundreds of ChatGPT requests in a single day. They sure as hell can't eat more than 3-4 of cheeseburgers. Please fuck right off with your shitty-ass comparison. It sounds like you asked ChatGPT to write this drivel.

I don't know who did the closed captions for the Black Phone 2 Trailer, but they shit the bed. If you aren't captioning SOUND EFFECTS - you're doing it wrong. And in this trailer, the sound effects are a huge part of the storytelling... and they're completely missing from the closed captions.

Someone posted about a horror movie called "Well Shark." My brain went somewhere else with that title, so you get to follow...

It's not often a horror novel sends shivers down my spine, but the last line of chapter 15 of "A House with Good Bones" did just that. 😳

I'd also add one big flag for me personally I've gone through a couple of times: They talk about sales being low or things are hard, but then are going on huge acquisitions sprees (as opposed to hunkering down to promote what they already have and try to work with what they have).
