I don't have much of my own thoughts right now. So I'm just gonna quote Order of the Stick:

"You told me before that you are who you are on the worst day of your life.
And that's true. That's 100% true. But you know who else you are?
You are who you are on the *next* day."

And if this list is too mainstream for you, I wrote a follow-up last year specifically focusing on specials that mainly aired once and now only available through archival websites

TG10 Halloween – Haunting the Internet Archive

Last year I put together a list of some of my favorite Halloween specials and movies. It skewed a bit more unconventional by including things like a an animated concept album or a Mary Kate & A…

Given the time of the year, I'm gonna plug this listicle I wrote covering some Halloweencore movies and shorts I love

TG10 Horror: Murph’s List – Benevolent Halloween

Two years ago I coined a term on this website: Benevolent HalloweenTM. It refers to the aesthetic of Halloween we had when we were children. It’s a three-part mixture of the autumn season, th…

Sure it's all a flavor of eugenics and need to control, but I think the root cause is a much more boring "parents don't want any additional stress on their lives"

It's fascinating how so much of the political moment is couched in parents being fucking terrified of putting in extra effort to understand their child

Besides linking Tylenol in pregnant women to autism, RFK Jr. now says circumcision is part of the reason why kids are autistic.

"Children who are circumcised early have double the rate of autism, and it's highly likely because they're given Tylenol. None of this is positive..."

No context spoilers for the final part of our Halo 3 playthrough going up this week

A matching jacket for the Halo 3 Playthrough, showing the thumbnail art and the line "Every Hole is a Goal!"

A thumbnail for a "Full Squad" version of Sonic and the Secret Rings, with Abram as Sonic, Murph as Tails, Will as Knuckles, and Brogan as Eggman

The scene in A Goofy Movie where Goofy is quietly mad at Max in the car. Max is dressed like The Arbiter and Goofy as Sgt. Major Johnson. In the background Master Chief escapes the destruction of Halo on a tiny warthog

Terrible news: playing B-Doing Woods in Pac-Man World 2 Re-Pac did not fix that which I feel is broken within me

I need indie devs to stop with the Soulslikes and Balatroesques and start developing 15 games like Voices of the Void

What if I add "shattered hymen" to her AI Prompt, what then?

I'm sorry: "if I wish to see a virgin on-screen"?

My Favorite Actress Is Not Human
Tilly Norwood doesn’t need a hairstylist, has no regrettable posts, and if you wish to see a virgin on-screen, this is one of your better chances. That’s because she’s AI.

Do you ever think about the fact that Wikipedia is the last good major website on the internet? You aren't bombarded with ads. It doesn't try to push video on you, and it doesn't redirect you to a scam site.

"Charlie Brown Had Hoes"
Is debatable. What isn't is that he craved them.

Shermy: All girls?
CB: No, not all girls. Just the ones in our generation!
