@saniyafatma1278 Sorry for your loss! Had to do that a couple of months ago. I’ve been through it with the empty carrier before, so this time we had a vet do it at home. 💔

The saddest part is leaving the vet’s office with an empty carrier. We knew he wasn’t going to be with us for much longer, but his abdomen was filled with cancer, and we made the only decision we could. Rest in peace, Chino. You were loved 🌈

@AuthorGFAllen I’m reading Permutation City by Greg Egan, and not sure whether being a copy of myself living indefinitely in a computer is something I would necessarily want to survive.

If you suddenly found yourself inside the book you’re reading, would you survive?

@itsme_urstruly Worried the cat will get taken out by a tiny drone strike.

Now this is the kind of news I want in my feed

@Sportswalkthe @metaplexmovies Love this line: “‘The Shield’ is a character study wrapped in a police procedural written by a monster energy drink.”

@metaplexmovies This is a good comparison of both The Shield and The Wire. It also kind of says why The Wire is the more acclaimed show, while The Shield feels forgotten. Chiefly, The Wire had better acting/characters for the “bad guys.” rogerebert.com/black-writers-…

I have now started THE SHIELD, the most deliriously early 2000s thing I have ever seen (that was incredible)

@dporges @metaplexmovies If you’re not hooked after the first episode, then it’s not the show for you.

@metaplexmovies Also that pilot is just amazing. “This show is obviously going to a season-long cat and mouse game between OH I GUESS IT’S NOT”

Let's make an 80s/90s mixed tape. Everyone add a song.

Name a movie or TV show that had a 10/10 ending

@Storyteller691 @joce_leigh @AuthorGFAllen Yes! So many other books out there to read, and only finite time.

@joce_leigh @AuthorGFAllen Mine is 50. If I’m not enthralled by page 50, I’m done, and feel no guilt or regret…

Have you ever finished a book and thought, “Yeah… I’m NEVER reading anything by this person again.”

@DerAnwalt83 @TheCinesthetic Came here for this. Possibly my favourite show ever, from start to finish.

@TheCinesthetic no notes.

@RobertSecundus Stop after Children of Dune. I slogged through God Emperor of Dune and really wish I had that time back.

why would anyone wonder where to start? Book 1?? obviously??? DUNE. Dune, the first novel in the Dune series, is where you start Dune. The question people actually have is where you should STOP.

@NoCatsNoLife_m Whole lotta bapping going on

In medieval Europe, attackers often used siege ladders to scale castle walls during sieges, climbing under a rain of arrows and stones from the defenders above

@chuckmoran @Angry_Staffer Whoa whoa slow down there…

@Angry_Staffer And you know what? The water comes right up to the shore!

Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt.

I’ll tell you one thing I did not vote to have in #survıvor2026 : Jeff Probst rapping. Please don’t ever do that again.

@BCFerrys @bobmackin A chorus of alarms sing out in celebration from the vehicle decks…

Check one, two, two, hey, sibilance… PA issues solved! timescolonist.com/local-news/two…

@steeletalk Couldn’t have happened to a nicer guy.

Wow that’s a hefty fine!

@bruce_arthur @kaser_linda Sounds like we need mandatory concussion spotters!

Mark McMorris crashed again at the Olympics and was unconscious for two minutes. He recovered and went for it again; he was banged up again, injured again, and went for the biggest jump he could, again. No wonder his younger rivals remain in awe. thestar.com/sports/olympic…

@Super70sSports What I want to know is how they ever decided a hot dog cart was a prize anybody would want.

Nothing like listening to some terrible yodeling while you watch an old man’s dreams get crushed …

It says something about the times we live in that while watching the #survivor finale I found myself worrying the speedboats might get taken out by drone strikes.

@CarloColaiacovo Oh the humanity!

Best anniversary of every hockey season!

@Rainmaker1973 The Americans

What is the absolute best?
