at my age, there aren't a lot of products i am not allowed to buy for myself anymore. so it was especially kind of my parents to bring a tin of these grandma-ass butter cookies to thanksgiving, since the store won't sell them to me without an AARP card.

We did something different with the credits for Demonschool. We used this format: name, title, lengthy description of what they did. Often you see credits in games where you don't know what the credited developer was actually responsible for. We wanted to give people proper, actual credit.

If you like this, then definitely check out Miyazaki's Nausicaä manga. It's 4 volumes, written and illustrated by Miyazaki. What became the film is mostly just volume 1. The rest is truly epic.

I went to meet the 'Rockstar 31', the developers who were suddenly fired from their work on GTA 6 for what the studio has described as gross misconduct.
That's not what the workers call it though. They have another couple of words they prefer to use: union busting.

reading a children's book from the late 80s with my daughter and i blurted out "Ferrari Testarossa" like a pavlovian response upon seeing one. i'm pretty sure all little boys raised in the 80s were issued this poster by the state, regardless of how they felt about cars. "aspire to opulent vehicle!"

This needs more attention: Zohran SPLIT the straights with Cuomo. ALL of his margin was from LGBTQ+ voters. Every Dem who ever said “we should abandon the transes” needs this shoved down their fucking throat with a ramrod.

All day, many of you have been asking for a Cheney obituary from me. Get ready:
His Works Completed, Dick Cheney, Mass Murderer of Iraqis and American Democracy, Dies
As much as the Trumpists claim to disavow the War on Terror, they walk a path paved by the most powerful vice president in U.S. history.
