I would be shocked if someone, probably British, had not fired tea from ship cannon at some point or another during the tea trade

He was slowing down Godfrey so he tore his lion ass off and became Hoarah Loux

Touch of realism. Graffiti isn’t necessarily coherent or rational. Sometimes it’s just some angry shit scrawled on a wall.

Deflategate was a clown show, not a scandal. At worst it was a minor rules violation that a $22 million investigation ultimately couldn’t conclude even happened.

Taping practices was a deliberate protest of a mid season rule change. The NFL issued a memo that this couldn’t be done anymore and the Pats continued with the argument that you couldn’t just issue a memo mid season to change the rules. It blew up because a Rams player offhandedly said “it feels like they know what we’re doing before we do.”

Keep in mind that shortly after all this, the Saints were discovered issuing bounties to players who injured their opponents, which is straight up evil, but people remember deflategate.

Belichick might not be the greatest coach of all time, but he coached arguably the most successful team of all time, and that’s Hall of Fame material.

I switched to Fedora. I’m overall happy with the switch and the learning experience, but it could have gone smoother. I’m not the most tech savvy and don’t have a ton of time to dedicate to tinkering. Getting the Nvidia driver running correctly was a hassle. Currently I have Windows 10 and Fedora partitioned on my nvme and I’m fighting with partition managers to reallocate space around. Yesterday I installed a new SATA SSD with the ultimate goal of migrating Windows there and keeping Fedora on the nvme.

I’m going to stick with it because I like the experience and the community, but once I get everything to a workable state I don’t see myself distro hopping.

Okay but the knife in that image is a boning knife not a cheese knife and it’s not going to be as sharp as you’d like it for its purpose if you keep cutting cheese with it

The second season finale was actually great though, if only because the climax was visually very experimental and cinematic. I feel like Discovery often took chances, and they didn’t often pay off, but that one really did. It looked like they blew the entire season’s visual effects budget in that one episode.

I have this printed and framed next to my desk. It’s a good reminder of the power we all have to live our lives how we choose and the kind of people we want to be.

I think the beauty of the killer reveal is that it changes the story we thought we were experiencing the whole time. We think it’s a detective story, maybe with themes of redemption and economic struggle and love, but it’s actually a story about the struggle of being human against the spectre of a devastating past.

The killer has sacrificed this humanity for his cause, and he hates seeing lives unfold at a distance. He thinks he’s serving some great cause but it’s ultimately petty. And we see what happens when a person gives everything up for this one purpose only for that to fail.

I didn’t pass my check to speak with the cryptid so I don’t know how that changes the perspective of the game at all. Maybe I’ll do a replay and go for it, but the existence of the cryptid just underlined that things aren’t what they seemed throughout the story.

Yeah, the secret to getting good bacon is buying it at the butcher deli counter. You can request your preferred thickness, it’s much leaner, and it’s more flavorful. Unless you’ve got a local artisan cured meat hookup available, it’s the way to go.

How about we be good to each other because it’s the right thing to do. And in a world full of people struggling to get by it’s what we can all offer each other. That works. If any behavior is predicated on causing other people to act a certain way it’s going to have its failures when encountering the great mess of humanity out there.

Maybe you do; I produce far more feces by replying to comments on the internet

You had me at blame Henry Ford.

I feel like The Librarian would take a lot of pleasure in finding University students with pristine collections and slipping in beaten up old paperbacks among them every now and then. The students think it’s a magic field around Unseen University but it’s actually an orangutan.

Violent World: Tribute to Misfits was a regular part of my CD rotation in the early 00’s. There’s a bit of pop punk, industrial metal, even a rockabilly track if I remember. It was a fun one.

Damn they made that leaf look so tasty.

My wife and I were having fun doing co-op on the Trine games. Coordinating your character switches to cross obstacles can be pretty fun. The Lego Star Wars games were also fun for us both to just mess around and cause chaos.

One of my favorite Halloween costumes is still a college acquaintance who came to the party as a banana slug. It was so sincere and heartwarming!

If you just got a point for never having written a postcard, go write a postcard! And mail it to someone that you appreciate in your life. It doesn’t need to be from anywhere exotic or say anything profound, it just takes a few sentences. If you really want to get fancy about it, a lot of little art galleries sell postcard sized prints and you can give someone a tiny little piece of art that speaks to you. Or go to a museum and buy like 10 at the gift shop and keep a stockpile to send when you want to reach out. People love it, and you probably will too.

Our rescue was a “lab/beagle” on paper, but yeah she’s definitely got some American Staffordshire Terrier. Our HoA is very dog friendly and she’s a favorite around the neighborhood. If you adopt a mutt in the US they’re going to have at least some kind of pittie in the mix.
