Luckiest drop I've gotten in this game. Only 71 master clues completed

I’m like three tax brackets too poor for this joke

when i was in high school someone recorded the sound of the school bell on their flip phone in an attempt to try to end class earlier. because we all had piece of shit flip phones they were extremely loud and this worked. sounded just like the regular bell. mp3 got sent around school and you’d be sitting in English class watching the clock and suddenly the bell rang two minutes early. teacher had no clue. thought it was a fluke. people got overconfident and started ringing the last bell early. whole classes start walking out 10 minutes early. principal trying to figure out what is wrong with the bells. this went on for a week or two until someone got caught and the teachers started having to watch the clocks so we didn’t Trick them. they had to staff people to watch the exits bc we succeeded in Tricking them. truly peak millennial experience, phones were perfect and should have stopped advancing there.

Imagine hearing some kid yell “I choose you” and then feeling the sting of a master ball right to the face.

Paramount made an Avatar: The Last Airbender movie. Delayed it twice, pulled it from theaters, never released a trailer, and now someone on X has leaked the entire film six months early because, they claim, Nickelodeon accidentally emailed it to them. The movie, Avatar: Aang, The Last Airbender, is an animated sequel to the original Nickelodeon show with the characters all grown up. Dave Bautista, Steven Yeun, Ke Huy Quan, Taika Waititi, and Freida Pinto are in the voice cast. It was originally set for theaters in October 2025, got pushed to January 2026, and then Skydance bought Paramount and the new owners scrapped the theatrical release entirely. Straight to streaming on Paramount+ in October. Same ownership group that axed the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles animated series (perfect Rotten Tomatoes score) and the Dora the Explorer reboot. The director, Lauren Montgomery, went on Instagram in March after production wrapped. She said the film "deserves to be seen on a big screen" and that the streaming decision shouldn't be taken as a knock on quality. At that point, Paramount still hadn't shown the public a trailer, a poster, or even a single official image of the movie. Then someone on X claimed Nickelodeon accidentally emailed them the whole thing. They posted clips that pulled in 30 million views and 128,000 likes before Paramount filed copyright takedowns. The leaker also threatened to livestream the full movie alongside Peggle Deluxe gameplay if the studio didn't put out a trailer. Clean, unmarked copies of the complete film spread across X and TikTok after that. Paramount has not said a single word. Last year, an animated sequel called Demon Slayer Infinity Castle made $780 million at the box office on a $20 million budget. The first Super Mario Bros Movie leaked on X back in 2023 and still grossed $1.36 billion, because going to the theater is an event and people show up for events. A streaming-only release with no buzz and a six-month wait doesn't have that kind of gravity. The pirated copy becomes the only version that exists in people's heads. X has turned into a piracy platform. This is the third major movie uploaded there just in April, after Super Mario Galaxy and Avatar: Fire & Ash were both posted in full over Easter weekend. X Premium lets you upload videos up to 3 hours long, and copies move faster than takedowns. The guy who uploaded X-Men Origins: Wolverine to the internet back in 2009 got a year in federal prison, but that was a different era. Now entire movies sit on X for hours before anyone pulls them. Six years of work. A director who fought publicly for a theatrical run. And the first time any fan sees a frame of this movie, it's a pirated clip from a leaker threatening to pair it with Peggle Deluxe.

Please don’t leave me I scale really well late game

The internet has completely ruined our ability to accept healthy love. We have started weaponizing therapy speak against perfectly normal men. He isn't "love bombing" you; he’s just actually excited to date you. He isn't "codependent"; he just wants to spend time with his girlfriend. We are so terrified of being played that we are actively villainizing men for doing exactly what we begged them to do.

does anyone know how to make this happen. has anyone looked into this

I'm gonna fucking cry, man. This is LITERALLY ALL THE FUCK THEY HAD TO DO

“Entry level job” meanwhile there aren’t entry level bills. Interesting who can and can’t be underpaid, huh

Just moved into a new place, and had the opportunity to recreate one of my favorite photos on the internet

IT guy: So now you press any button to continue. Me: *Presses power button.* IT guy:

I think it might have to do with the key selling point that tech CEOs won't shut up about is, "AI will replace every single job and we will control every aspect of your broke ass lives." Turns out "you will be a slave" is not a good pitch to get people on board with your product

𝐍𝐎, 𝐈𝐓'𝐒 𝐍𝐎𝐓 𝐀𝐈. 𝐈𝐓'𝐒 𝐂𝐀𝐋𝐋𝐄𝐃 𝐏𝐔𝐍𝐂𝐓𝐔𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍. I see it constantly now. Someone reads a post or an article and spots an em dash — that long horizontal line — and immediately declares it was written by AI. 𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐭'𝐬 𝐚𝐧 𝐞𝐦 𝐝𝐚𝐬𝐡, 𝐝𝐞𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐥𝐲 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐭𝐆𝐏𝐓. You know who else uses em dashes? People who actually learned how English punctuation works. I don't normally step on this particular soapbox — and I commit authorial malpractice by never trying to sell you my books — but I've authored over 30 of them. Many have been international bestsellers. Well over 𝟏,𝟎𝟎𝟎,𝟎𝟎𝟎 𝐜𝐨𝐩𝐢𝐞𝐬 in print, translated into 7+ languages, sold around the world. I am, amongst many other things, an actual author. So let me give you a quick education your grammar teachers apparently skipped. The em dash — this thing right here — is one of the most versatile punctuation marks in the English language. It's called an "em dash" because in traditional typesetting, it was the width of the capital letter M in whatever typeface you were using. It serves three primary functions. First, it sets off a parenthetical statement within a sentence — like this one — when you want more emphasis than commas provide but less formality than parentheses. Second, it signals an abrupt break in thought or a dramatic pivot. Third, it introduces an explanation or amplification of what came before it. Writers have been using it for centuries. Emily Dickinson used em dashes so obsessively her manuscripts look like they were attacked by a horizontal line. Mark Twain used them constantly in dialogue. So did F. Scott Fitzgerald. None of them had access to ChatGPT. Now for a bit of trivia most people never learn. There's also an 𝐞𝐧 𝐝𝐚𝐬𝐡 — slightly shorter, the width of the letter N. The en dash has a narrower purpose: it connects ranges. Pages 12–44. The years 1941–1945. The New York–London flight. It's the dash between two things that are connected but distinct. Most people have never heard of it, and most fonts render it just barely shorter than an em dash, which is why almost nobody notices the difference. Both have been part of formal typography since the invention of movable type in the 15th century. Gutenberg's typesetters used varying dash lengths to organize text. By the 18th century, printers had standardized the em and en dash as distinct glyphs with distinct grammatical functions. This isn't some modern AI invention — it's older than the United States. And if you use Microsoft Word, they're trivially easy to type. An en dash is Ctrl + Minus on the numeric keypad. An em dash is Ctrl + Alt + Minus on the numeric keypad. Word also auto-converts two hyphens (--) into an em dash if you have autocorrect enabled. That's why you see me use them in my books and in my posts — because I know they exist and I know the keyboard shortcut. The reason AI chatbots use em dashes frequently is because they were trained on well-written text — books, journalism, academic papers — written by people who knew the rules. The AI learned proper punctuation from proper writers. That doesn't make proper punctuation a sign of AI. It makes it a sign of 𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐲. For the record, the only things I use AI for are conjuring up a quick graphic — like the image on this post — or as a shortcut for preliminary research. Think of it as a Google accelerator. The writing? That's all me. It has been for 30+ books and countless social media posts such as this one. If you've reached the end of this post, you now know more about dashes than most people who graduated with an English degree. And the next time you see an em dash and your first instinct is to scream "AI" — maybe consider that what you're actually looking at is someone who paid attention in class. Or someone whose grammar teachers didn't fail them quite as badly as yours failed you. 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐞𝐦 𝐝𝐚𝐬𝐡 𝐢𝐬 𝟓𝟎𝟎 𝐲𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐬 𝐨𝐥𝐝. 𝐒𝐭𝐨𝐩 𝐛𝐥𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐢𝐭 𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐨𝐛𝐨𝐭𝐬.
