I would for sure fumble the handoff and then get murdered in the resulting dog pile.

Just rewatched Inglourious Basterds for the first time in a few years. There's a scene of an actress being strangled to death while the camera focuses on her bare foot that really helps remind you that it's a Tarantino film. You know, in case you forgot.

Same.

I saw the Chainsaw Man movie last night and absolutely loved it. Also, I'm sad now, even though I knew exactly what was coming.

I'm having way too much fun with the coin flick mini game in Ghost of Yotei.

He set up legal immunity and is testing what he can get away with, and while we all argue about him distracting people from the files, he has made it so the files don't matter. Not everything is a distraction. He's a dictator, and he's making (made?) sure that he won't ever face consequences again.

So, again, I ask: realistically, what is the fallout? I ask because I've noticed that literally every horrible, atrocious, country-defiling act he commits is met with a wave of "it's just a distraction." It's actually not. Declaring war on US citizens isn't a distraction from anything. 3/4

Will he lose followers and support? Maybe. I'm sure some people will change their minds about him. But he's already in power, and every single member of his regime was hand- selected to be sycophants who put service to him over service to the country. 2/4

Realistically, what actually happens if the Epstein files get released and Trump's name is all over them? What's the fallout? Will he be arrested? I kinda doubt it. He's done so much to errode checks and balances that's he's pretty much immune to whatever the law can throw at him. 1/4

I feel like literally every time they're the favorites, they either lose or play such an embarrassing game that you almost wish they had lost. That's the Lafleur trend I've noticed, anyway.

One week on at the new job, and I've already found my preferred shittin' spot.
Yes, it just so happens to be the first stall in the bathroom closest to my desk, but I've tested others! This one really is just better.

Apparently, you can't even TALK about MAYBE wanting to POSSIBLY raise their taxes without them funding full-on fascism and DOGE-ing half the government from existence.

If he dies this weekend - my last weekend at the job that's been making me miserable for ages - I might just start believing in a higher power.

Mind void and empty
That stupid little goblin
Ready for the hunt

A screenshot of an email from Progressive Insurance Company titled "We hope you're OK." The body of the email reads, "We're here if you need us. "

I just got this email from my car insurance company, and it made me cry. You know, if you're wondering about my emotional state at the moment.

Anyway, life feels like that lately. Except, I'm not the trainer. I'm the poisoned creature, life and hope fleeting with each step. I've been existing for so long with no direction, no real thought of the future, and it's finally caught up.

Tldr, I am not doing well, my dudes.

Calculate if I could make it to the nearest Pokémon Center in time. I'd take every shortcut I could, hop every ledge, whatever it took as the dread mounted. That skittering sound and the flashing of the pixels on screen are permanently embedded in my memory as I would try so hard to save my friend.

Anyone else remember the terror and anxiety of getting poisoned in the old Pokémon games? I never carried enough antidotes in Red, so I would inevitably end up with a poisoned 'Mon, their life dwindling with each step. I would count my steps compared to my companion's remaining health to try to

If people could stop fucking shooting each other by my work, that would be great.

Saw someone get shot last night. I can't say much because work and confidentiality and whatnot, but the guy died. I'm okay, I guess, kinda shaken because it happened literally right behind me. But also, I really don't enjoy working somewhere where I can say I saw another person die today.

Base a character on me.

I feel bad admitting this because of our friends and the music they listen to, but most metal. I don't get it. I just hear discordant noise that occasionally causes me actual discomfort. Like, I'll admit when it's technically impressive, but I don't think I've ever heard actual metal I've enjoyed.

For those who don’t know, my sister was shot in a mass shooting last week. A guy dove on her and took two bullets likely saving her life. He’s still in the hospital and needs help covering bills. If you’re able to donate, I’d appreciate it.

I am more open about this with strangers on the internet than I am with the people I actually know and love.

I was coming here to say he had just described the plot of Dune.

The awkward cadence and completely monotone voice... is this a deepfake AI, or am I just crazy? Anyway, I checked to see if the product is real, and it is. The website has a disclaimer stating that it's not owned or operated by Trump, but we all know he's still profiting.

You ever wonder if that adorable corn kid still loves corn? I hope the shining spotlight of internet virality didn't ruin it for him.

The original is truly great, but I can't see it without thinking about the censored version and then giggling uncontrollably:
