first orioles spring training game and dave johnson is talking about how the orioles ran into "a buzzsaw" in the playoffs last year and there was nothing they could have done. kansas city got trounced by NYY 3-1 in the next round. it's gonna be a long year

just realized we're gonna get donald trump weighing in on and possibly trying to outright lobby for and choose the next pope

doing a die hard about a bunch of rich people getting saved by the help and getting daisy ridley and clive owen as your leads is rough www.youtube.com/watch?v=y_EG...

modern liberal comms in a single image

there's eventually gonna be a word for people who continued to take paychecks from places like this, no matter how much they want to posture as the conscience of the opinion page, for a high profile example. remains to be seen if it's "fellow traveler," "collaborator," or something stronger.

im sympathetic to people who don't want to see seig heils on their timeline but man its getting a little bit late to be this precious about it

feels like we're speedrunning the ACA repeal debate at town halls across the country right now, where GOP reps simply turtled up, started crying to every reporter who would listen about how mean everybody is, and continued to vote to kill them

hey, some honesty from a democrat

Just an utterly disgusting company, it and its fans deserve nothing but contempt.

replacing the real generals with fraud shitheads no one respects unlocks both the "it works and the coup is successful" branch and the "a colonel shoots his general in the head and declares he's going to arrest the president" branch of outcomes, at the expense of "nothing ever happens"

COLE: COOP, THEY CAUGHT THE CEO SHOOTER. HIS NAME WAS TONY SPAGHETTI, REAL BOY NEXT DOOR. ABS LIKE ADONIS. POLITICAL IDEAS OF A FUTON. PERHAPS THE IDEAL MAN

secret to live action reacher is subverting the text, which is formulaic, boring and mostly very stupid. cruise reacher did it by being small. hitchson reacher does it by being petulant. every confident Display of Expertise in these scripts comes out like petty score-settling with this guy. it rules

the police have finally caught aiden "the fox" pierce...

will be vaguely interested to learn if this is a top-down administrative imposition by transphobes with more hate than sense or some form of malicious compliance intended to embarrass the school, but either way it's gotta be dealt with

orlan males having incredibly deep sexy guy voices remains an excellent bit whenever the eora games choose to pull it out, which is fairly often

it would be slightly less irritating all around if we weren't subject to these guys' cowardly, fully-anonymized weepy little pity party psychodramas every time they realize they're one of the guys who shuts up and does as he's told, not one who does the telling www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

there's a bug in avowed where when the game shuts down even normally a couple processes keep running until you force-close them, and you probably only realize this when you try to start the game back up again hours later. i choose to believe this is why my save file says 1d23hr14min played

it was a lot easier to kill xaurips in pillars 1 and 2 than it is in avowed. not because they've mechanically made them tougher but because the ones in POE aren't standing around doing the snoopy dance half the time you roll up on them. feels bad man
