Why is the Ben & Jerry's guy on TikTok and doing better geopolitical analysis on the US and China than every Liberal on this website?

It's Thursday night.

That means 4 hours of Street Fighter 6 and adorable kittens frolicking in the laundry room.

In Final Fantasy Tactics if a unit gains too much faith they leave your party to go find God. Have you ever wondered what would happen if you had Beast Tongue and got a monster unit to maximum faith? Of course you haven't. No one has.

Flea juggling was the hardest one for me.

Make sure you have a quick dash attack and not one of the slow ones.

5th Avenue would have cleared here.

It's the vastly superior crunchy peanut butter bar.

Is this a "Taking all Cummers" operation?

The Kitten Krew is just out here chillin' tonight.

Nice to see them so relaxed with me in the room.

Currently in talks to teach Bill Belichick how to play Street Fighter 6 on my stream which has 160 followers.

You may ask, "Why your 1600 MR ass and not a pro?"

To which I respond, "What are you writing a book? Fuck off out of my joke."

Also the contract states he gets to play with the kittens.

Per sources: Bill Belichick has discussed buyout options with North Carolina’s hierarchy. Belichick has signaled a willingness to trigger his own $1 million buyout if he can find a soft landing with another team or in media

Just scored Valentine's Day tickets to Nine Inch Nails.

What's more romantic than that?

The truth is that no matter how you carry yourself bad actors are always going to criticize something.

Unfortunately, given the current state of the FGC, as a woman you've got a giant target on your back.

Don't mind me, I'm just posting a couple kitten pictures to save them to the laptop to update my stream's "Starting Soon" page.

What stream?

This one that starts at 7:00 EST!

Why?

What else is social media for?

I found this when I exited my company vehicle and came to the most logical conclusion.

I think someone tried to eat my car.

A metal tableware fork stuck in the plastic molding strip next to my tire.

Looks pretty good!

I'm bringing a test bottle to work tomorrow to see what folks think.

Also buying smaller bottles so I can gift it more easily.

Not as much hot sauce as I would have liked but hey, it's a start!

The beginning. Thai chili peppers, some Poblanos, tomatoes and a single Reaper soaking in brine.

After 2 weeks of fermenting, the peppers are ready to be made into sauce.

A jar of fermented hot sauce.

I added more brine to thin the sauce and a couple cloves of garlic.

The result.

3 small bottles of fermented hot sauce.

Banana for scale.

They say it because it's true.

Go watch Hikaru.

It's on Netflix.

'The Summer Hikaru Died' Is Easily the Best Horror Anime in Ages

In a genre crowded with hollow aesthetic mimicry, 'The Summer Hikaru Died' is a rare triumph.

Oh yeah I was mostly just goofing because Ippo is an outlier. It started in 1989 and has never been tra slated officially so it would be next to impossible to catch up.

The Shonen Jump app rules anyway so I just pay them.

I pirate the Hajime no Ippo manga because it isn't available anywhere else, and never will be.

Not a single adoption inquiry yet for Baby Sneffels & Baby Ferrata 😿🙀

It’s so unusual 🤔 Guessing high supply/low demand:
* Shelters are overflowing right now
* People are hunkering down & saying “not now”
* Maybe folks just aren’t aware how adorably perfect this bonded pair is?!? 😻

I've watch Matt's stuff for a while now, and he's usually pretty fair with where the blame lies on these things (management, time crunch, etc.)

Glad to see this gets your seal of approval.
