Huh, today I learned. I assumed Derby was a rename of the Bavarian, not the pecan fudge. In my defense, I'm allergic to pecans so it's not something I have ever really researched.

In my offense, I'm the opposite of a gourmand so even without that excuse, I'd still be eating nothing but French Silk.

Having both "pecan" and "pecan fudge" on the list feels like cheating, somehow? I'm also a bit surprised at the lack of folksy Depression-era pies, like Sour Cream Raisin. Usually these graphics are, like... half weird gotcha answers, but this one is pretty sane.

But it's possible that some of the equipment moved. His old butt is completely blocked, so that's supernatural constipation unless it rerouted. Also, who's to say he didn't get very long in the middle and it's the front legs that are new?

Also, it's Obama's fault no one can play video games as much anymore by limiting the computing power of consoles when he passed the Multi Process Regulation bill. Look up Obama MPReg to learn more

If you want a quick way to catch a block hop into my mentions talking like a bot who barfs out talking points and catchphrases
"Nobody wants to work anymore."

A man can't even find ten minutes for some fuckin' Legend of Zelda these days.

Thanks, Donald.

i don't mean to single out baseball fans here, because you see this in lots of fan communities, but in certain corners people talk as though baseball is real. they think all the players are real people and the stadiums are places you can actually visit. to each their own, but that cannot be healthy

SCOOP / UPDATE — Disney saw more than 1.7 million total paid streaming cancelations during the period 9/17-9/23, a Disney source confirms to me. The total includes Disney+, Hulu and ESPN.

NEW — I wrote about my confirmed scoop from last night that Disney hastened Kimmel's return because of a planned Disney+ streaming price increase announcement coming on Tuesday:
Kimmel reinstatement preempted Disney+ price increase
The Handbasket reported first Monday evening on Bluesky

Question-- do we butter the banana bread, or do we leave it un-buttered?

Disney's facing an open letter from shareholders demanding they lay bare all actions and emails surrounding Kimmel's suspension on the grounds that the C-suite and board may have violated their responsibility to fiduciary loyalty and care... and I truly love that for them. Wishing them the worst. 💋

Someone said “what does this mean” So I’ll try this

My mom once told me

“Sometimes the only way to be a good Christian you gotta stop going to a bad church”

If you believe in love and peace , and they CHOOSE otherwise

It becomes your duty to leave

Disney adults are doing what media professionals claimed was too hard.

Standing in the core principle of what they centered over their access

The reaction Disney fans are having makes think maybe the Harry Potter fans are just bigots who don’t care after all.

Since this whole debate is still happening, and since we are still not listening I will summarize what I understand the argument to be in the Lingua Franca of white nerds: Lord of the Rings analogies.

white cis men blocking people of color and other members of vulnerable communities because their risk factor is a lot different than ours is peak white nonsense.

It's also how I know they don't give a shit about us.

It’s crazy that in 20 years scamming has gone from “I’m a prince who needs to transfer his fortune to you” to “hey I have a halfway decent job with okay benefits right here”

I have made my friends watch "Stardust" if that's what you are asking.

At this point, I'd recommend Dynasty 7 or Samurai 4 if you somehow had zero gaming backlog. The later entries went for realism and so the charm is gone, IMO. Alternatively, Orochi 4 is very good but, uhhh... 140+ characters is a LOT to deal with all at once if you've never met any of them before.

I want to love Strikers, I still got credits... but I'm quite bad at it. I want to block rather than evade, and I hate using items. Never played OnePiece, but Gundam is surprisingly fun. I know nothing about that anime series except the bits I've pieced together through story mode. Poor Kamille.

That still counts, we take those. 😄 Definitely one of my favorite Musou games, though I can't imagine grinding through to get every character's keepsake item. Seeing them make new Dynasty and Samurai games with extra realism makes me sad, so apparently I need Hyrule and Fire Emblem for my fix.
usoki.bsky.social
Dunno how you feel about Musou gameplay, but Fire Emblem: Three Hopes fixed a lot of my gripes. It's an alternate timeline that still branches into three parts, but it gives much more satisfying resolutions for each of the three heads of houses.

Clearly the kid encountered one too many zubats, threw the pokedex on the ground, yelled "I quit!" and then left to become a Nurse Joy or something.

Unless we're in a post-apocalypse zero-human world, in which case... move over Splatoon, there's a new Cute End of World game in town.

Granted, with #NaNoWriMo dead (and it had better STAY dead given the sheer harm and negligence it allowed by the end) my Nov schedule could be more open than it used to be. But I'm still planning to carry that torch even without an official org, so it's really not. Stupid busy holidays.
usoki.bsky.social
Every year Nintendo releases something amazing in November, because apparently that's how holiday sales work? And every year I'm angry because I would never wait two months to buy something I want just for calendar milestones. I have things to do that month, dammit. What's so bad about Oct or Dec?
