“Don’t replace the culture war with class war” is such a fun way of saying, “Please don’t unionize, I just bought a yacht that parks inside another yacht.”

Just finished, The Flesh King by @richardkadrey.bsky.social .
I love this series. The characters have a great dynamic, the monsters are nasty as hell, and the story is fast-moving, but still has plenty of twists. The monster POV sections are chilling, like they were in the last book.

I've noticed the opposing team's fans only cheer when the opponents score on us. To win those fans over, I recommend we score on ourselves repeatedly; that will surely make them so happy they'll start supporting us. And I'm sure all our fans will keep cheering for us—who else is there to cheer for?

So, my wife and I were watching the Samalamadingdong episode of @gamechangershow.bsky.social , when I paused the episode. She couldn’t stop laughing, and, while I am sure what I was saying was hilarious, it didn’t merit that level of reaction. Looked back at the screen to find this freeze frame:
