CARDIAC BEARS AT IT AGAIN
The period of time between being able to watch the Bears-49ers game on the plane and getting home from the airport, so I can continue watching the Bears-49ers game, will be the death of me

Did not think the Bears were one of those Disney movie miracle season-ass teams, but maybe?

Un-freaking-believable. Caleb Williams with the throw of his career, DJ Moore with the touchdown, and the Bears beat the Packers in overtime.

Mark, I love you, but… was it not insanely clear that Luke was intentionally sacrificing his life to save the resistance? I….?????
Mark Hamill has commented on Luke Skywalker's death in Star Wars: The Last Jedi, saying, "Don't you think if... using the Force could be lethal, Obi-Wan would've said 'Use the Force in moderation, Luke?' Or Yoda would've said 'Overdo Force projection, you must not?'" https://bit.ly/4s0eqBD

As someone who has 700 hours in Baldur’s Gate 3, a chill just ran down my spine

I want to re-emphasize, the guy who has made HUNDREDS of videos calling people in the industry slurs, calling for them to be fired, calling all the studios that are showing games "woke and gay" and has harassed multiple journalists covering the show over the years is at the Game Awards.
LOL hey everyone in the industry who is at the Game Awards, the guy who has made countless videos harassing you is there!

I’m not watching The Game Awards because I no longer work at IGN and all I’ve heard is that Keighley and Miss Piggy are fucking

In a jokey way, Heated Rivalry is really exposing which of you did not grow up in the trenches of Thirsty Girl Fanfiction ™️
In a serious way, someday I hope we can find a way to discuss media that largely appeals to women without being reductive and condescending 🫠

One thing that’s always kinda bothered me about Stranger Things is, rather than kill off core characters, it introduces side characters to fall in love with and kills them within the same season. It creates something of an illusion of high stakes for the core cast while still eliciting reaction

i think if you introduce an AI tool to your employees that takes away a chunk of their work you should be legally required to demonstrate that you can provide them with new, more interesting work to do instead

look I know being an engaged citizen IS the work of democracy but it is also the work of elected officials not to create situations where everyone has to be mobilized all the time to prevent them from allowing some kind of Dickensian horror on a Sunday night while you're in between loads of laundry

BREAKING
The 1st Circuit REJECTS Trump DOJ's request to pause a judge's order to pay up Nov's SNAP funds to the states.
The SCOTUS stay will expire within 48 hours absent further action from the justices, per its terms.
