Our Bold Hero

sure, getting stuff done is great but have you ever embarked on three separate side quests instead

Whatever you think about its merit, it's interesting that Andy Warhol's art in movies and tv shows is only appreciated by the effete heel characters. I can't think of another famous artist so consistently associated with fictional baddies.

Ah yes I've heard of this "end of history" (toothed spherical creatures eating the past)

friendly blizzard tip from your buddy in the midwest: if you’re snowed in, you HAVE to take your pants off. otherwise you’ll go insane

I don't watch Doctor Who anymore so I have to get my big BBC "has this gone downhill or was the writing always this sloppy" feelings out watching B-tier spinoff shows like Sister Boniface Mysteries and Beyond Paradise. I can't rank all the Doctors but I can rank the detectives on Death in Paradise.

Yep, DM me and we can DM or email from there

I have been DMing D&D for about 8 years and run 2 or 3 games a week, 90% virtually

It's 2026 and Hollywood is all-in on CGI deer that do not look very realistic!

today I saw a dad at costco deploy a high-risk “fine, I’ll buy you this basketball hoop if you can make this shot” maneuver to his young son only for the boy to swish from like twenty feet away. net barely moved

This style of light doesn't really appear in animation anymore. You know it when you see it -- it's bright, hot and almost dangerous.

Our new issue explores the tricks behind it, and how one artist has revived the look for the digital age: animationobsessive.substack.com/p/dangerous-...

Carrying little cards to the bar to hand out because I'm sick of the same questions every time like "Yes, I am a government experiment. Yes these are my real eyes. No it does not hurt. Yes I can see into the side-layer."

I keep seeing folks referring to scams like “wanna buy some magic beans” which is weird because in Jack and the Beanstalk the magic beans were very much real. Like, I get what you were going for but that dude was in no way trying to scam Jack. He had real ass magic beans and just wanted a cow.

"The moon economy is about to boom. In fact, I am experiencing some growth right now"

I saw Josie and the Pussycats in the theater and only one other person laughed at the jokes - later I found out the other person was my best friend

I saw The East premiere (some old man was MAD that we were warned not take photos) and I still ask "from The East?" whenever Brit Marling is mentioned

Of course I know him. We were both part of the vast interconnected web of life together.

Serotiny is the storage of seeds in close cones or fruits, trapping the seeds & preventing dispersal until the cones are heated (usually by fire). Post-fire conditions are ideal for germinating seedlings. These are cones of Pinus clausa of the SE USA. #Pinaceae #serotiny #Botany 🌾🧪🌱

honestly respect for the ad that’s just like “pokemon are cool.” they are cool

Google servers overloaded from angry queries like “Puerto Rico part of America true”

Like half the Super Bowl ads for AI are so unbelievable or unpleasant that they've seemed like they're going to be for something else entirely but then they never pull the rug and it's really for AI for real

Every Super Bowl ad is for the door in the forest. It’s annoying. “You must walk through the door.” Yeah thanks, I know that already. I dream of the door every night

Due to a miscommunication during the hiring process, the Seahawks new offensive strategist heavily favors winning with field goals alone

Netflix if you drop another bad Cloverfield movie directly after the game, all is forgiven.
