Rob better name a child after you

She must be a terror in Stardom

Toni never met a match gimmick she couldn't elevate.

Super glad Mark Carney laid off 1,400 food inspectors today.

Ah interesting. Didn't realize that was coming up in this season. A timely inclusion.

I have been out of the loop apparently... I thought Fallout S2 was about New Vegas but it's Canada as 51st state???

I feel like the province is losing a pillar of mental health support and sober sensibility. The man was on the front lines for pushing back on right wing derangement

Wrestling actually dictating all vacation plans now lol

Evergreen content when it comes to Darby Allin #AEWDynamite

I assume Darby Allen has his spine tattooed so doctors know where to put the vertebrae back after this match #AEWdynamite

Given Mercedes' meteoric title run I assume we are seeing just the beginning of an all time crash out as she spirals and loses all those belts back to their respective promotions. She's going to be the Johnny Appleseed of new champs. What's next for her will be something else to look forward to

2026 is the Spiraling Mone era i guess #AEWDynamite

when I was in college, a part of our university's graduation requirements had a community service component that they called service learning. one of my service learning classes involved work at a local homerless community center, helping people write resumes and cleaning bathrooms. our instructor told us to expect to see the bathrooms trashed a lot - like you will clean the bathroom and immediately someone will wreck it.

and it's not because they disrespect your work or don't value having access to clean bathrooms or whatever, but because of control. when you feel like you have no control over your life or your environment, your brain is going to want to assert control however it can. which results in thrashed bathrooms. it's control exercised over one small part of your environment that you still have the power to affect.

i see kids on tumblr using the language of social justice as cudgels on people who actually do care about and listen to them. or holding the creators within their own communities to an impossibly high standard that they never apply to mainstream media properties.

i just see thrashed bathrooms. 'These are the people my voice actually reach,' they rationalize, 'so these are the people I'll hurt'. but the guiding principles of social justice are aimed at correcting and dismantling systems. stop using them to dismantle people.

Zee horse is also, how you say, full of cocaine.

I'm imagining that someone told a French drug dealer he needed a front to clean his money so he created a business selling wildly expensive horse lamps under the business "Front for Mooooooi"

Took my hand to making some silly shit this year, here's a personal highlight. 🤼

Does the BD have English subs?

So when you said you had to rematch the Swerve / Hangman interaction that was for 'research'

(italics) - "SON OF A BITCH." (capitalised italics)

Happy Christmas. Please tag yourself.

I knew the answer, it was just reflexive

Feels crazy to me that so much merch is wildly unwearable outside of an actual event.

Meta shuts down global accounts linked to abortion advice and queer content More than 50 organisations report sites being restricted or removed, with abortion hotlines blocked and posts showing non-explicit nudity triggering warnings

The real answer is to cast solely from frequent Open Line callers.

"Southern Shore" would be pretty incredible though.
