@Fox_Beholder Are you trying to butter me up?

@beamtower Yeah he should have taken his own advice, you won't find me hanging any of his art in my home

Jonathan Frakes 'Beyond Belief' clips played at half speed make him sound like a drunk dude at the bar

@Fox_Beholder Picasso sucks, look at this dog shit.

@ClownWorld Hey homeless people, you know where they don't have rocks in the sleeping area? In homes.

The city of Boise dumped a massive pile of jagged rocks under this bridge to stop homeless people from camping or sleeping there. The woman filming walks through it and complains that this is what they did so the homeless cannot stay out here while adding that Idaho can do better. Many locals actually support the move, saying it helps keep the area from turning into another Portland.

@9mmsmg People who pay with cash are buying steak and bullets. People who pay with card are buying soy lattes and dildos.

I hate the idea of cash free society. The idea where all transactions are digital. A world where I can't just give someone money without a record. I say this, but never use cash. I carry some for emergencies, but it just stays in my wallet. I was thinking recently how I'm personally contributing to the downfall of using cash. I decided I'd put my money where my mouth is, pun intended, and start using cash in my day to day transactions. It's been nearly two weeks, here's what I've experienced. 1. It takes longer. Depending on the cashier, I'm looking at about a 200-300% time increase. I was at a gas station with five people in line behind me, all impatient. The cashier was fumbling with bills, then put the coins on top of bills in my hand, which immediately slid off like they were on a slide, spilling on the counter. 2. It's nasty. Seriously, so many dirty people handled these bills. I can't imagine how many bills I've handled with residual drug residue on them from snorting blow. A few days ago I got change and I was putting it in my wallet, the bill was stuck to my fingers like fly paper from someone spilling something on it. 3. Coins. What am I supposed to do with them? What am I going to do with 36 cents? I'm not going to fill up one of those giant water jugs with my spare change and lug it over to coinstar at a grocery store to take a mini vacation to a Motel 6 and a dinner at Outback. Keep them in my pocket? So they can rattle around and scratch my phone or get stuck in my pocket knife clip? I'm not going to be counting out exact change in line. I've just been throwing all my coins on the sidewalk. I've probably thrown out 15 dollars in these last two weeks. 4. I'm losing a lot of Amex points I could be earning. My conclusion is that using cash sucks and I hate it. I hope you all continue to pay with things in cash so it stays common, but I'm out. If the FBI wants to track my energy drink purchases, I'm fine with it. As long as I never have to deal with loose change again.

@TheRoyalHerbs That's a big fat lump of shit.

If you eat original amala, you will gain your lost appetite immediately ✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻

@grahamscheper Never mind, I just went to find the video I watched a few months ago talking about it and it was your video, lmao.

@grahamscheper What's the best translation? I've heard it's one of the newer ones and that Tolkien's has issues.

The first ever English translation of Beowulf was by John Mitchell Kemble, in 1837. He was a miserable and extremely rude know-it-all who often insulted his contemporaries, but his translation was decently good. Remarkably, it's actually *better* than some modern editions in a few regards. Obviously I hate the translation of hwæt as "Lo!", but translating þēodcyninga as "of the mighty kings" is a sign that he recognized even back in 1837 that the first element þēod- is from *þiudijaz (great), not *þeudu (people). Modern translations of "folk-kings" or the like misunderstand the compound.

@theblessedsalt It's not a fortification, I just like the way it looks when I open it. Like a little hobbit hole for all the sweepstakes I've won.

This post is an excellent litmus test for understanding of just war theory. Despite the fact that I can see how effective this would be, I must oppose it because the damage it would do to my enemy (who bashes in my mailbox) would far outweigh the good of saving my mailbox. Its disproportionality is opposed by our duty in charity (and even justice) to watch out even for the good of our enemies. (Yes, by the way, I have had my mailbox bashed in by random vandals.)

@C_U271D Old text adventure games like Zork.

The only genres of literature primarily written in the second person that I am aware of are choose-your-own-adventure books, visual novels, and 4chan greentexts.

@bendellwerry @64ozDrPepper That's in the original too. She even tried to kill Wendy.

@64ozDrPepper “Tinker bell is in love with Peter”

Hook (1991) has no business being as good as it is. We were looking for something fun to watch the other night. It is such a great defense of maturity, fatherhood, family, and virtue, I was shocked. Besides two weird scenes that could easily be cut it was perfect.

@Oghma_EM Name one 'Lord British' just to stick it to the man.

Now we restart with a new party again… for the second time. Taking suggestions for names for the new party. #Wizardry

T-rex dragged that fat meaty tail behind it when it walked, and I don't care what some transsexual 'paleontologist' has to say about it.

@cosyposter That's clearly Liu Kang, nice try you sneaky devil

@ShitpostRock2 Imagine offing yourself over a bitch named 'Drusilla'

The more time passes the more things stay the same

@RadicalLib @Howlingmutant0 The C.S. Lewis of gay rape

@Howlingmutant0 I’m reminded of CS Lewis’s story when he realized his colleague didn’t love literature. It was just a job to him. I mostly shared this so that I would be the first to compare @Howlingmutant0 to CS Lewis.

Local comedian (?) inadvertently reveals he views comedy as something akin to pulling teeth, makes bizarrely inapt analogy

@wylfcen They get slimy following the exertion of a crime spree.

@treblewoe This actually makes it funnier.

@dissidentwest Your daughter would be safer with a few of these in her sock drawer than with a single somalian on her continent.

Liberals will be like "omg he looks so friendly I will do everything in my power to make sure he has full access to all of your children and ruin your life if you object to it in anyway".

@cosyposter Not this time, you rotten son of a gun

Have a Cozy Day
