Some high-quality Lore in this thread
Okay! Returned from the show and coming back to this. I don't believe Changeling renewed or popularized "the fae" in use in the context you're describing it, but rather rolled-into-one a wider-spread use of "the fae" in hobby games at the time. Like most of the WoD games in that era...

It’s basically impossible to avoid this without knowing everything there is to know about everything on Earth, which is why I’ve decided to know everything there is about everything on Earth
It’s one of the most challenging parts of writing fiction: your characters can know things you don’t know, but they can’t know all the things you don’t know you don’t know.
I love Manhunter/Red Dragon but I’ll never get over the part where they show the hanzi for “middle” and everybody is like “oh yeah that means red dragon actually”

When I was a kid, the big push for hand dryers was to get rid of homeless people who wanted to clean themselves up with paper towels. So all you awful rich people need to talk about this over Thanksgiving and figure out the best way to make everyone else suffer for your vanity and malice.
At this point, the Washpost edit page is just trolling its readers.
This is today's actual house editorial.

In high school in the '90s, the teachers spent years trying to boost our self esteem, stop us from calling each other r*tards, stop saying we were gonna kill ourselves, etc., only for Beck's "Loser" to drop and ruin their life's work.
impossible to describe how it felt in the mid-90s when "Possum Kingdom" was on the radio in good rotation, at work trying to mop up the glass/acid spill of a cartload of pickle boxes crashed on the floor while someone screams "Do you wanna die?" from a speaker cut into the drop ceiling.

Nothing else is quite like the feeling of running into a gonzo paragraph like this one.
![A screenshot which reads:
"Inspired by Theosophical lore and several visiting Mongol lamas, Gleb Bokii, the chief Bolshevik cryptographer and one of the bosses of the Soviet secret police, along with his writer friend Alexander Barchenko, embarked on a quest for Shambhala, in an attempt to merge Kalachakra-tantra and ideas of Communism in the 1920s. Among other things, in a secret laboratory affiliated with the secret police, Bokii and Barchenko experimented with Buddhist spiritual techniques to try to find a key for engineering perfect communist human beings.[17] They contemplated a special expedition to Inner Asia to retrieve the wisdom of Shambhala – the project fell through as a result of intrigues within the Soviet intelligence service, as well as rival efforts of the Soviet Foreign Commissariat that sent its own expedition to Tibet in 1924."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ekew4wtc2m4ctroumek7kr4l/bafkreidabk6ljvos3wdgnum2ao7enwzc46kdkcxc2afw5ahfchncacn5tm@jpeg)

I once live-tweeted our attempt to cancel a mis-sold Virgin Media contract.
It went viral to such a level that eventually the CEO had to call me personally to apologize for how fucking awful they are. Just to give them some modicum of a PR save they could use to counter the massive negative press.

underrated feature of old twitter was people with a decent following being able to bully brands into acting right

People are talking about how Star Wars came out just at the right time for them but I feel lucky that I discovered Star Wars when it was in the trough—nothing but some old movies and tie-ins plus a tabletop RPG that kicked ass. The books weren't even good yet. A whole abandoned universe to play in.

After about 80 issues of my monthly print zine, I have decided to quit making zines in order to transition to making booklets
This decision is informed by the fact that most people don’t know what a zine is but if I call it a booklet they might be able to figure it out

DOGE is one of the greatest failures of the Trump administration. The next Democratic administration should pick up that issue and actually work to cut government waste, fraud, and abuse. I’d suggest starting by taking a look at Elon Musk’s government contracts.
