thereโ€™s this weird idea a lot of people seem to have about how all of us writers and artists must secretly want to use AI and are merely resisting temptation for ethical reasons, and like, no, itโ€™s not hard for me to resist drinking the bowl of Piss With Glass In It actually

I gave up after last season. Theyโ€™re not even pretending to be blind about it at this point and are putting trash people in it for the wrong reasons.

Perry says the order will say defendants are "temporarily enjoined from ordering the federalization and deployment of the National Guard of the United States within Illinois."

Iโ€™m sure Kid Rock will also take the stage. The Village People and Snoop performed at inauguration balls so maybe heโ€™ll call them, too?

I knew the guy when he was the mayor of Braddock. He is not that guy anymore. Whether itโ€™s the stroke, or they threatened to deport his wife and kids (or both), something doesnโ€™t add up at all.

I don't think your collective hearts can handle hearing about all the games that got cancelled, or not even greenlit past the initial pitch stage. There is so much good stuff there.

Often cool games can get canned for complicated and sometimes even very good, sensible reasons.

โ€ฆand letโ€™s be clearโ€ฆitโ€™s not regular rank and file people who go to Everest, at least not the ones from America. Itโ€™s always millionaires wanting to do something impressively extreme to prove that theyโ€™ve got the depth for self-discovery, even though nobody cares.

I fell and injured myself at a Planet Fitness once and they pretended to show concern but actually all they cared about was getting me out of sight. After my trip to the ER (they offered no assistance) I canceled my membership because the way they handled it was gross.
