Xcom: the series.

Sex is great, but what about the inescapable allure of the inclined elevator.
It me!
Use this to make your memes as you will
Unless of course they are incapable of feeling it, like these .
All the current crop of right-wing politicians changing theirs to 'Disappointment"
Don't you get dizzy watching it revolve around you?
"You could say that Gamma World is a game in which silly things are taken overly seriously, and Paranoia is a game about deadly serious things played for laughs."
Cue cards are still legit.
That's easy for *you* to say!
I have discovered the best meme, I think, ever.

Bluesky. Side effects may include:
Trump Stamp. Let's make that a derogatory thing.

Don't worry, I'm sure they're looking at renaming the position.
Hey check out @drewmcweeny.com’s latest episode of THE HIP POCKET featuring ME! A reunion a LOOONG time coming. Was great to get back together with one of my old AICN brethren and talk about three of my favorite movies and one of his. Much fun! na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com?url=https%3A...
I thought so, cheese time.
Maybe parliament will legalize opium.
Hobbits (sigh)
If you're going to go for the graft, go big.
Sorry, teleportation accident.
Happy 50th Birthday to Space 1999. This illustration originally appeared in Phaser, a sci-fi fanzine available from my pal @alisdairwood.bsky.social
It looks good on you

Your argument is pursuasive.

That's not how you spell jerk.
Wife: I'll buy a subscription to any publication that writes one honest story about the "masculinity crisis" that just says "Men want to be able to treat women like shit and still get laid" and just be done with it. There's no more depth to the discussion. There is no nuance.
They changed it from requiring a FB account to a dedicated Oculus one after some backlash, IIRC.
Transport Tycoon Deluxe (1995). The open source version is still being updated today for Windows, macOS and Linux.
@theglazeproject.bsky.social Hi! Since I updated my graphics card to a 5070Ti I can't run Glaze on my Win 11 PC anymore. I've tried running in admin mode/reinstalling but nothing works. Could I have an invite to webglaze? Thanks!
"You didn't turn me off and back on *right*."
An avalanche is just a lot of individual snowflakes moving in the same direction.
When someone adds me to their starter pack I should be asked to consent to this.
Artists, quote with your woman art!
Portrait of our dog, Pippin, a Christmas gift for Ang back in 2020. Pippin was found through Adopt a Pet's "Dixie Dog Rescue" and we were the third home to adopt him. He is a rascal, cutpurse and all around scalawag.
In 1994, Italian artist Marco Patrito released a 3D scifi visual novel called Sinkha on Windows 3.1 Info about the game is hard to come by. It doesn't even have a Mobygames entry. Gameplay is non-existant so far. You just read the story, enjoy music and amazing visuals, and keep pressing next.
I think, in light of all the rotten people out there spreading terf nonsense, today would be a good day to support trans creators. Trans folk, please add your links to this thread for books or crafts or whatever you do!
quote with your black and white #art I got a lot of it!
A two-legged parody of a stereotype.
A film classic
I'm still -5500 CAD after paying but if I can get to -2k I'll be close to out of the red (◕ᴗ◕✿) if 300 people want to put $10 on Eggs not having six rotten teeth + a massive infection, or even just share the posts, I'd be v. grateful 🖤 every item is now redirected to him: throne.com/MayaWest
Oooh, that was a lovely end to the series. So charming, with wonderful characters.
True. Apologies to actual used cars salespeople.
Can we opt out of appearing on the discovery tab yet?
All the trustworthiness of somebody born to sell used cars.
I'm sure she'd approve of giving them a stern talking to in lieu of a fine.
I'm looking for pitches for @MotherJones' print culture section, Mixed Media! These are ~2,000-word essays that combine reporting, cultural criticism, historical research, and/or personal narrative. More details in our pitch guidelines here: www.motherjones.com/contribute/w...
If he says anything you know it needs verification.
Honestly my imagination isn't big enough to really grasp how infinitesimally small my place in the universe is.

Isn't there just.
Hey! I am still looking for work so if you have any opportunities for illustrators/comic artists/storyboard artists, send them my way!

Why not both?
It's been a while. Glad to be announcing a new game, and happy that it is something experimental and weird: a tiny, tense, turn-based strategy game about merging units into spectacular combinations, and then watching them evaporate thousands of bugs. store.steampowered.com/app/2396130/...
Is one of them "please"?
Day 03 of #septempera - Mushie people on a mossy log. Something a bit simpler today as I had little time and energy.
But they intend to steal the show!
Because someone doesn't want to share their 16oz porkchop.
"We're operating in a tight fiscal environment and tough decisions had to be made," Goldsmith…' Who overspent on rich landlords and lobbyists, creating the tight fiscal environment? Who always gets hurt by tough decisions and who never does? #nzpol #oneTermGovernment
So where is the 10 year jail sentence for the CE and the $100m fine?

Tasted good too.
I have a feeling my new site at Ghost is going to be a mess for a little while. I'm trying to import everything from both newsletters and from my Squarespace site, and it's chaotic, to say the least. But once it's done? Oooooooh, baby, this new site's gonna be nice.
Meanwhile, nursing students are being told repeatedly to temper their expectations because there are no jobs
Dad has just captured my favourite picture ever taken, he deserves an award I think . This is me asking for a big hug from everyone 🧡😺 #adoptdontshop #rescuecat #whiskerwednesday
Ugh
I see some pickles and sliced cheese in my immediate future, and I have to say it looks good.
Holy smokes, just saw that @pcgamer.com covered the Palestine games charity bundle too!!! Thank you so much for the coverage!! ❤️ www.pcgamer.com/games/you-ca...
I still re-read those.
It already welcomed Andrew Tate, so it's not really bucking any trends.
Does the machine have a manager you can speak to?
One of the saving graces in my life online is that I've never gone viral. Honestly, small batch, artisanal, mildly amusing posts are far more sustainable over the long term.
Yay, please continue
When people say "We used to drink raw milk from our own cow and it was fine," That's... usually not the case! In families w their own cow, the mom usually boiled it before using. We just forgot bc that's a boring chore that mom did. And who pays attention to that? youtu.be/vKDPast9WFk
It might just be me, but there lies madness
"Now, the instructions said to take a left at the corner."
It just gets in the way of the graft.

Have you tried using it backwards?
Discworld QOTD, from The Light Fantastic
It's seven years since we posted on Twitter about how kids kept coming into the library asking if we had any books about FORTNITE. We didn't back then, and we'd never heard of it so we tried asking what it was.
What are some problems I am likely to encounter if I try to switch from Windows 11 to Linux Mint?
