Endorse this rule proposal wholeheartedly. Main result would be more 2 point conversions which is good but also there would be a handful of non-kickers who became reliable XP scorers. We’d call em 7-point players

Seconded!

Like, the reason I am vehemently opposed to AI has nothing to do with how good or bad it is at accomplishing tasks. I just fundamentally believe it is abhorrent for humanity to surrender our thinking and creativity to machines. This is not a position you can talk me out of.

I truly have no intentions of being reasonable when it comes to AI. I don’t care if it is good at some stuff. If I could snap my fingers and every AI data center exploded into a trillion pieces, I would snap my fingers ten times just to be sure.

every goddamn time you go “yeah but XYZ isn’t perfect” when XYZ is the only position against the ocean of right-wing garbage, you are helping weaken the dikes. yeah that sucks. yeah you have to be an adult about what you put into the world and “lol it’s the internet” isn’t true. sorry, wear a helmet

Peter MacNichol was always reliable to add a spark, too

led me to make this clip

I could tell the moment they hit play the first time that I will be saying it under my breath for the next week or so

lotta people just don't want to be here

they do this when recruiting efforts are going well, right?

lmao

I am going to be a massive humorless asshole about woo-woo shit, no matter how seemingly harmless, for the rest of my life due to this. astrology, homeopathic medicine, etc etc it's all bullshit and it's not fucking harmless. there are people who will die due to this who would have otherwise lived.

Quick: someone Google if any DC theaters are doing rep screenings of Cars 2

I swear to god, if The Assault of Big Balls becomes a chapter title in the book on our descent into fascism…

he is the rare leftist who passes the Can He Talk About Politics without Scaring My Mom? test

People think Mamdani is some sort of electoral genius when really his main strength is "pleasant to be around and right on the issues." The guy can talk about left policy positions without sounding like a self-righteous asshole. Its, sadly, a lot rarer of a skill than it should be.

What the fuck happened to Kathy Hochul (laudatory)?

I think really the story of the past ten years was people taking for granted 21st century liberalism was locked in and therefore you could just kinda be fashy for a laugh only to realize a moment too late Skinhead Steve wasn’t joking after all.

“Can you believe Dems blew it so hard that they lost to Trump???” Was totally fair analysis in like, December 2016 but since then we’ve gotten a lot of good data to suggest he does almost magically with the low trust silent majority who don’t answer polls or interact with mainstream media

Starstruck truly is one of the most underrated shows no one’s seen. Rose Matafeo is a gem.

I remember a guy who works in that industry told my family growing up that unless you are a criminal or, like, a prosecutor, no one is going to break into your house to murder you, so all you need is some basic alarms

wouldn’t have expected God to drive a Toyota but he does work in mysterious ways

when I’ve been at my lowest, my favorite bbq man has held me down

the fact that the Right’s least favorite starlet is gonna be doing Evita on Broadway next year is too on the nose

the fact that the Worst Assholes on Earth are wildly anti-social should be a big fucking siren for the left

it was a bad thing that “We live in a society” became a mocked phrase because so much nonsense discourse these days deserves to be met with “WE LIVE IN A SOCIETY, GODDAMIT”

I always have this at the ready when it’s necessary

Second everything Mike says here. Especially the crowd part. Jfc is it wonderful to laugh with a crowd

for many of the worst people in our politics, the only real belief they have is that it should be illegal for us not to like them

another W for Astoria
