Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up.

I saw the window tracery and immediately made my friends pause the film so I could tell them.

If you use Firefox:

Go into Settings, in the search bar type "Sidebar" and select "Show Sidebar." At the bottom of the sidebar, click "Customize Sidebar" (the little gear icon) and un-check the "AI Chatbot" box.

I have suffered from this since early childhood. Sadly, there is no cure. Except Halloween, of course.
Our toddler has Generational Autumn Impatience. Here he is last August, age 2, when he would check the front yard for decorations every day and ask, “Halloween, Where Are You?”

It’s a pity my love of home repair work is around 2/10, because my love of buying tools FOR home repair is an easy 11/10.

I’m petrified about today’s science news. Genetically modifying crabs to have cheetah genes? This could go sideways fast.

This joke is agelessly impossibly old, but is the glue that holds every dev team together. It communicates the gallows humour and nihilism that has powered the development of every game you ever loved.
the best joke in videogames development is replying "ship it" to every broken ass prototype no I will not be taking questions

Something really stupid is going to happen and it’s going to be so stupid that it’s the last thing that ever happened and then, later, when octopuses take the earth, and find our few remains, they’re going to be like what stupid shit did these stupid fucks do
