That is a pretty good way to make sure almost nobody sees it. Given the kind of business GOG is, there are probably more of their customer base on Mastodon than Facebook these days.

Also he seems dead-set on pissing off all of Ohio, in particular. First it was Springfield, now Akron, Canton, and Columbus all in one go. Man, if there's one state you don't want to get on the bad side of if you want to become President...

I'd say something about throwing the baby out with the bathwater, but frankly this sounds like the people responsible had no idea there even was a bathtub and just wanted an excuse to throw out a baby.

OK, who else read "mysterious orange shape" and immediately had the same thought I did? 😛 I don't even need to say what it was.

Game Grumps actually started as a way to get footage for Arin's other show, Sequelitis, and the discussions he had with Jon were meant to be a way to get his thoughts together before writing the scripts for it. That lasted less time than it took for Jon to leave the show, and Sequelitis itself...

Couldn't we have him permabanned on those grounds?

It's amazing. I've never watched that show, I had no context for what scene is being parodied, and yet I still managed to guess Worf's answer on the first try.

We have all these guns and bombs and tanks yet somehow the horrors of war seem like they've only gotten more horrific.

No, it was only enough if you were a Democrat. And probably still is. Because the Republicans control the media landscape, which means they decide when someone's career is "over." The only time I can recall when a Republican was ruined over something petty was all the way back in the '50s when...

What this does is turn the general election into a traditional runoff election. Ranked voting is sometimes called an "instant runoff" because it involves casting extra votes that ultimately get shuffled around to the totals of the top two candidates. But is arguably fairer because the losing...

Yes, because why solve the problem when you can just profit off workarounds.

You know, when I said this, I really wasn't expecting news to break the very next day that the most famous January 6 rioter, the dude with the facepaint and animal-skin hood, is now calling Trump out. But here we are.

How does that affect screen readers, I wonder? Triggering an ADA-related lawsuit would not be a good look.

Well yeah, Europe is somehow able to pull off stuff like that for likely the same reasons they're able to implement them in the first place, whatever that is. Honestly the difference between the US and Europe sometimes feels like it runs deeper than the systems they happen to have put in place...

Now that's an interesting line of thought. Suppose the list gets released. And it's the real list. Unedited. Uncensored. Unredacted. And it leads to an actual mass uprising. Let's just pretend for a moment that Trump doesn't see himself as a target and thus doesn't order the military to stop...

The only real solution is to abolish private banking and payment processing as an industry. Didn't they basically do that in Europe? Don't people have like, government-issued debit cards that are impossible to defraud and are required to be accepted everywhere?

Of course Trump is thrilled to have this technology at his disposal. Think about how many dictators around the world would have given both their legs to have the power to deepfake convincing video of anything they want. Even total control of the media only lets you control what the public...

Which is yet another out-of-touch-old-person idea, because in reality the machine needs less and less people all the time, between increased reliance on automation and the dwindling amount of unique products being produced.

President Abe Simpson.

Forgetting to attach the correct season's opening to all the episodes feels like something that's happened before with TV shows, but I can't put my finger on it. Not counting cases like Garfield and Friends where they intentionally used the most iconic one for all seasons in syndication, or...
