I think that "feeling cozy" should be its own hobby. Like you curate an ever growing collection of robes and nightgowns, rotated by season. An assortment of warm beverages and herbal teas. No less than three pairs of slippers. Pillows across the spectrum of textures, with preferred pairings.

my cousin is raising their kids to not owe anyone hugs and I think it's really healthy for them! Sometimes I don't get a hug goodbye but if I ask for a fist bump instead they're very happy to do that instead! Let children have some agency and make little decisions!
Ahh yes, a totally real trend for which we totally have evidence

There is a large German Shepard and golden retriever at the bar who were both very polite until they noticed each other then absolutely needed to say hi, then did tricks for each other's person before settling down again.

It's so clear the Disney Star Wars era is objectively bad because they put out a movie in 2015 with both guys from The Raid and the next movie in 2016 with Donnie Yen and somehow misused them so badly you do not remember they were in either movie at all.
rogue one is bad folks. i have believed this since i saw it in theaters and no subsequent rewatch has changed my mind. basically a chop job until the final sequence, which is good (for star wars)

Disney has revealed it spent $60.5 million on Star Wars streaming series Andor in 2024, giving the show a total cost of $705.5 million - far higher than the spending on any of the movies in the saga.

I stand by my statement that even giving any of these people real trials before they're Dealt With is a compromise position and anything short of that is disqualifying.
eric swalwell said on msnow that a major goal of a dem majority after the midterms would be for ice masks to come off and badges to come out, this is insufficient

I fully agree. Give me holographic courts. Give me those 3D optical illusion courts. Give me courts that do the thing where the picture changes when you look at it from a different angle

I love the NBA Cup courts so much. They're gaudy and tasteless and I hope they steer into that even more every year.

The problem with movies doing a Steely Dan needle drop is they keep going after the song is over, after they've reminded me I'd really like to hear more Steely Dan.

I think people need to more directly tie the way adult men communicate with chatgpt to how they expect a child to behave: completely agreeable, never doubting their authority, profusely apologetic over the slightest error, and most importantly, trained to be that way by someone else.

Amazing, especially with the layer of Ryan Lizza going "wow, so turns out my girlfriend was interested in politically connected older men with public sex scandals" without any self awareness.

Maintaining my line that there is no such thing as "excessive celebration" after you do something really cool unless it results in a delay of game, which is already a penalty.
