Would it please you to know that Mark Hamil was a guest on an episode of the Muppet Show?

…you twit!!

I remember having this conversation with my mom when I was young and saying something like, “Well that’s great then, this is an easy win. Scientists should be able to examine them and confirm the change and then we know what the Bible is telling us is true,” and she replied that that’s not how faith works. And I was dumbfounded and like, “But… it would be so easy…”

And that lesson of how willfully choosing ignorance is somehow something to be valued was a key turning point in my waking up to the bullshit of religion. Thanks for coming to my TED talk.

Right? A Real Genius quote in the wild just made my day!

It’s a reference to an X-Files episode, one of the few where they swapped out the ‘Trust No One’ text in the opening credits.

BUT… I like the way you think!

Deceive. Inveigle. Obfuscate.

(That’s a deep cut, wonder if anyone got it.)

Yeah I’m glad it’s not a vital part of the experience but don’t mind that it’s there for people who like it. Kind of like card games in real life. :)

I do not understand this at all… but I respect it.

Am I the only one that avoids Gwent altogether when playing Witcher? Like, I don’t go to that world to play cards, if I’m loading it up it’s cause it’s swords and magic time.

Badowm badowm badowm boooooowm!

Do you want Shai’halud? Because this is how you get Shai’halud.

I watched it recently and it’s shocking how well it’s held up. Aside from the fashion, it feels like it could have been made last year.

I’m on iOS, not getting this. 🤞

With the demise of Omnivore I was about to roll out an alternative on my NAS. How does this compare to Wallabag?

Damn I just randomly selected a Voyager ep last night and it was the one where he was a Hirogen hunting a stranded Species 8472. Then I see this today. 😢

Even in full makeup and under a mask it was unmistakenly him, the man was a goddamn imposing presence. You will be missed, sir! 🫡

Same. I’m fucking furious. I specifically chose it over something like Readwise in order to stay open source. Ugh.

Snowy has the right idea in this picture.

This track is so good

Yeah but how do you consult those rules? How often are they updated? How do you get notified of updates?

The fact that there are no answers to these questions and therefore everyone is working with mismatching rule sets makes the whole thing useless. You can be totally well meaning and still piss off a server because somehow you don’t know what the currently acceptable magic number is.

I recently visited the states for the first time in a decade and didn’t find out until afterwards that 15% is now considered by some people to be “low”. Sorry everyone who I tipped, I shafted you without realizing it. 🤷‍♂️

I’m fairly tech savvy, still on my Xr and feel no reason to change. Battery will probably be the deciding factor before anything else.
