God, they were so boring. Them and Gomez were the two bands of that era of British rock that just irked me.

Kula Shaker’s “Tattva” was even worse.

I am home in Chicago now but I would like to share this excellent flier I found in Yerevan.

A weathered telephone poll flier that reads “stop using ChatGPT, grammar, tellper, if you don’t want to REGRESS”

At some point in the last 2.5 years I went to bed thinking of Israel as a flawed but recoverable democracy that could work out its issues eventually post-Netanyahu and woke up holding it in the same disdain as Milošević’s Yugoslavia and the Confederate States

Apropos absolutely nothing else there is still a rather rude awakening which is yet to come for those in the Democratic Party and in the camp of liberalism writ large if they think Israel's public image is at all recoverable among young and nonwhite voters and apparatchiks.

Right. Because we all know labor is the only input in the cost of goods.

I don’t even trust my current plan. There is no way in hell I would ever trust a plan engineered by that scam artist.

Holy shit… an AC I might have actually thrown money at.

SCOOP: Last year, Ubisoft cancelled an Assassin's Creed game set during Reconstruction. Was to feature a Black Assassin who, among other things, fought the rise of the Klan

Sources: Leadership nixed it over concerns re: U.S. political climate, backlash to Yasuke

Sure, you’re showing The Game to the other 3 people in here and I love that for you, but just keep playing my sweet sweet goth vibes like it’s back in 1981.

I love october because I can go to happy hour at a place with drink specials and the vibe quotient of fried mozzarella sticks and manage to hear Boy Harsher’s “Pain” and “Amphetamine Logic” by The Sisters of Mercy back to back.

What's with leaders of countries today being abject cowards and so openly so? What a joke. Can't even defend the mayor of your most important city, of your own party. Get out of here.

I just watched a clip where a reporter asks Starmer five times in a row, five times in a row, five times in a row, five times in a row, five times in a row whether or not Trump's accusations against Sadiq Khan were racist and Starmer refused to answer yes or no each time. What a fucking joke.

Almost as big a tragedy as this garbage “innovation” is the fact that this construction of “vibe (x)-ing” is just going to get used more.

But it hasn’t been promising. SG are masters of this type of
Isometric action gaming and I feel like they’re treading water a little bit here.

Gameplay-wise, I’m not even sure I like it better than the first after a couple of dozen runs…and the roguelike elements are still pretty weak. I don’t feel the satisfaction in build-building that I do in something like dead cells or monster train. I’m sure a bit of that will come with time…

If you can’t make the video an article, it deserves to be ignored forever.

You can buy kazoos in bulk from Amazon or party city. We did that when the Real World was in Seattle and wanted them out of a bar or a neighborhood
