Chekhov has a gun
On the mantle, it's not hard to find
When they're setting the stage up, it's easy to see
They'll introduce it in act one and it'll fire in act three
Oh, I wish that I had Chekhov's gun
Yeah, I wish that I had Chekhov's gun

“everything in you’re life is more expensive and Trump doesn’t give a shit” is a good message in the abstract and actually does apply in a lot of situations but you cannot stick literally every single thing that happens - such as the end of 80 years of American relations with Europe - into that box

seems to me the main reason bluesky has a lot of desperately unhappy people freaking out about politics and world affairs on it instead of being like twitter was in the middle of the last decade is that you are using and discussing it in 2025 instead of in the middle of the last decade

My no-fun-at-parties take is that "christmas is a secular holiday" is an uncomfortable way of assuring me that christianity is the status quo and everything outside of that is an aberration. Sorry! It's still a christian holiday!! Just because you're an atheist doesn't make it secular!

I say this with zero irony: if you are even tangentially a part of a retro video game community, it is your civic duty to push back against this company and shun anyone who doesn't. This is fascism tapping gently at the door and as soon as you let it in, it's going to invite its friends.

Magic is not about winning games. Magic is about pulling off a totally sick, elaborate, surprise move that keeps you alive one turn longer than you thought and forces your opponent to do slightly more work to kill you anyway.

The USPS posting a NINE BILLION DOLLAR LOSS!!! sounds terrible. Certainly worse than if you said "USPS costs thirty dollars per person per year" even though that means the same thing and more accurately describes a government service
