I'll buy anything that @tkingfisher.com, @marthawells.com, or Bujold publish. (You don't even have to tell me the title, I've already hit the "Buy" button.)

Why do I have to find out about new books from Bluesky? Why isn't there a way for me to just get a "Time to spend money now!" email?

#DnD advice: If your players are gravitating towards a specific aspect of the campaign, don't be afraid to give it more of the spotlight. My campaign is now officially The Adventures of Goblin with a Cool Hat and his Player Character Friends.

They made my existence into an "issue" then complained I'd become a single issue voter

Maybe people up here just don't know what coffee should taste like?

If I wanted coffee that tastes like it was burnt, I'd at least want it to be carefully burnt in an artisanal process by an expert barista-burner, not coffee that was clearly burnt in a factory and then reburnt as it was made.

I am currently in Boston (hi Boston!), and I love the city but I don't understand why people here love Dunkin coffee so much.

If I wasn't in a different state from my laptop, I'd set up a web page that guesses a different day for the rapture every time you reload it.

Wait, we definitely have enough people to keep the rapture away forever, then. I'll guess tomorrow, you guess the day after, etc etc etc.

And we'll keep guessing until they give us a taco truck on every corner, as was promised!

I've talked to a lot of clients where the request translated to "We'd like to do the exact same thing we've always done but get different results, can you make that happen?"

Just heard on Irish radio someone saying about Kirk, "he has been given a huge amount of empathy in death that he denied huge amounts of people in life".

I've always wondered if pedestrians carrying hammers would make cars better behaved at crosswalks, maybe bicyclists should do the same?

Hooray procrastination!

City of Lost Children. It's dark and creepy and amazing and I think about it all the time but haven't watched it in years because it creeps out my wife too much.

But if something bad happened, someone has to be to blame, or else it might happen to me!

Marge Simpson is holding up a potato with the caption "I just think they're neat" underneath. The word "WEBCOMICS" is placed over top the potato.

I just think they're neat

What about updog?

I admit, I'm a little jealous.

Slightly diminish a band:

Eight Inch Nails

But these AI fucks don't want to do any of that: they don't want to go through the process of learning, of developing skills, of cultivating the ability to see what is in light of what can be. They think this process is archaic, outmoded, something that can be replaced with a tool.

You're not wrong, but most of my kids' over scheduling is self driven. I can't count the times my wife and I have asked them "Do you need to do the third school play for two afternoons a week, and your a capella group, and lead tutoring? Can't one of those wait until the other is done?"

Oh, geez, flashbacks to boy scout trips when we (not me) decided to play American football.

What do you mean, illegal forward pass? When my dad watches on TV they always throw the ball!

And, of course, the result was being yelled at by a dozen boys, not anyone explaining the rules.

Hey @granades.com, check out what the Pizza Rat is up to!

I'll remind you of that when you claim the measured crime rate is high and therefore we need more police. (hint, it isn't: www.nyc.gov/site/nypd/st...)

Everytime the NYPD has a work slowdown or stoppage, crime rates go down.

Also vote for him for the rent freeze and free buses!

ME: (became the dalai lama through a looney tunes-esque series of events) you truly cannot stop a bitch who loves a soft cheese
THE PANCHEN LAMA: (loading a revolver) ah. so true bestie

Let's go #Cyclones!

(checks pockets) How much vampire does $5 get me?

Specifically, I went to a polish restaurant with a friend, said I liked the blintzes, he reported to a foodie site that his friend from Tennessee liked the blintzes, and the reply was "I don't see why a guy from Tennessee should get to have an opinion on good blintzes."

I got yelled at once for saying something good about blintzes!
