  1. I should reread The Three Body Problem.
  2. God, that was a proper fucking movie.
  3. Pretty great read, but I don't think I'd call it the best story in the world. It's also a full Tolstoy that could be read in a day which is different.
  4. Bro, the only reply to him I made was to tell him not to leave. It probably came off like I was a dick though in rereading it.
  5. Maybe it can be like the 1941 October Revolution Parade where the tanks pass by the dear leader and go right back to the battlefield.
  6. Politics by their nature are argumentative, or at least they should be. It's ok if you don't agree with the vast majority of posters and that we don't agree with you. Taking your ball and going home because people find your reasoning idiotic is only the answer if you yourself don't believe in your decisions.
  7. It's popular to shit on Hofstadter these days, but some of his work should be more popular.
  8. Oh no, they're reading Machiavelli next aren't they?
  9. The Gentleman's C for admitted students is no myth.
  10. This isn't news, but imagine showing your 2012 self this CNN headline
  11. Also Wycomne vs Stockport on the last day makes it more likely to get the auto promotion.
  12. That was my bad. We've been to every game this year outside of the San Diego game. Good news is we're not gonna make the LA Galaxy game so enjoy your perfect weather for that one.
  13. Daingerfield right in line. This storm hates traditionally good high school football teams.
  14. My man! You know the internet and the way unfiltered information is destroying society will probably be the death of us all, but for those of us that enjoy high art there is nothing that can compare to the beauty that masterpieces like Meteorologist Jonathon McGuffin bring to the world.
  15. I'm more of a Max Velocity guy. I can't get enough of that autistic weirdo pretending to be a meteorologist on YouTube. Yesterday he cut to a friend who was giving damage reports, and the dude was obviously living in his childhood home with a small bed and a giant racecar on his wall. It was great. I wonder how much he makes with a million subscribers on YouTube?
  16. Man this time of year, I'm glued to weather.gov Especially here: https://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/outlook/ And here: WWA Summary for Tornado Warning
  17. Yall ain't heard? This Trump shit probably has Infantino more excited about WC2026, he lives for pleasing dictators.
  18. Nintendo is delaying pre-orders on the Switch 2 that was supposed to start next week because of the tariff situation. It was supposed to be $449. Nintendo Halts Switch 2 Pre-Orders Over Trump Tariffs
  19. There was a prayer to the god of American civil religion too.
  20. Yeah, we had the pledge of allegiance at our annual investors conference at work last month and it was certainly a "fuck this" moment. To be fair though, I hated the pledge as anti-American before this year. It was an extra level of "fuck this" now.
  21. Obviously fake. No way woke Wakanda would be lower than our new ally in Mordor.
  22. Vietnam thinking logic has something to do with this. They haven't heard Louis CK's accurate view of the United States
  23. I don't know if he can't read, but he doesn't read...which I guess is functionally the same thing.
