Taking steroids for a sinus infection kept me up late last night playing Silksong. A little delirious today, occasionally throwing a handful of glitter at my wife and yelling "Trobbio!"

Bragging about how your shooting wasn't fatal while speaking at the memorial for someone who was killed in a shooting is bad, but only Trump would claim that the dead guy specifically complimented how he avoided the bullet.

Trump at the Charlie Kirk memorial event: "They fired sniper rifles at ICE agents, and me. But I made a turn at a good time. I made a turn at a good time. Charlie couldn't believe it, actually."

Has anyone made an RKO gif with the crypto market graph yet?

And yes to answer the obvious I made sure I have enough silk to trigger the skill. And even if you don't the icon shakes to indicate that, and I'm not getting that either. Fighting Savage Beastfly (wish version) and absolutely had to mash the button to get the skill to trigger.

Has anyone else had an issue in Silksong (maybe since the last patch) where RB just doesn't register sometimes? I've done the controller input test on steam and tried Xbox and 8bitdo controllers, and sometimes silk skills just will not fire when I hit the button.

Any Democratic nominee has to have a minimum platform of "no one is above the law" and be explicit about accountability for the Trump administration and new laws because norms are not enough.

I hate so much that I can't tell if this is real because it's completely plausible.

Kinda freaked me out how big they were when they came out. Looked like they had kept large guitar picks up in my head.

Part of the reason I use a Roku or Fire Stick is so I can leave the TV disconnected from the internet and avoid the app garbage.

I didn't expect him to do the thing he tried to do repeatedly the first time he was president.

The Titanic may have sunk but the ship is still very well known, were survivors wrong to get off the boat?

Did I just see an ad for the NLCS with clips of Phillies players?

I'm not saying the quality of international NFL games is WHY other countries are going to declare war on us, just that it's not going to help.

I love playoff baseball and the sun, but that seems like an ok trade-off for vaccines and not diving for cover every time a car backfires.

Every time someone makes me read something Peter Thiel said it’s like “Scrooge McDuck is Jesus Christ and Huey, Dewey, and Louie are Gabriel, Raphael, and Uriel and Daisy is Mary Magdalene and that’s why women voting has lowered American sperm count.”

Was that some kind of weird-ass staring contest at the end of the half?

“Who was president in 2020?” remains one of the most pertinent questions in American politics—absurd, yes, but here we are—and that extends to “who was president January 1 - 19, 2021?”
