If you are the sort of dude who has misgivings about these discussions surrounding sexual assault or feels the need to say “not all men”, I implore you to develop some platonic female relationships. You’ll find out REAL QUICK how carefully curated a bubble you’re in and how often this shit happens.

I got really into that stuff during the pandemic. Bought a lot of stuff. About half of it has been extremely useful on a near daily basis. Biggest wins are flash lights and multi-tools. The rest of the stuff.. eh let's just hope I never need a tourniquet, but I'm glad I have it now.

Maybe everything sucks right now because there isn't a good party band. We need a new Andrew WK or LMFAO. That'll fix us.

That feel when you wake up only to discover that folks you came up with are still crashing out, embarrassing themselves, and reminding you just how thankful you are that you took a wildly different path.

Aren't these the guys that came in the armageddon box? Isn't just buying the Ork half about that much? GW has lost their mind. I'm glad I quit 40k. Kill team still has my heart (and my wallet) but their last couple of releases hasn't been great.

I can't imagine being a public figure of any level and going online at all. Hell even as a non-public figure I often think about deleting all my social media and throwing my phone in the river.

Holy shit. This is peak content. It's just over a minute and a half and, if you love PTA, you owe it to yourself to watch it. If you hate PTA, you REALLY owe it to yourself to watch it.

Fun fact: Every time you click on an ad for a company you find reprehensible, it costs them money. As a bonus, it trains your algorithm to think you like that thing, so it sends you more of those ads to click on and waste their budget.

The memory cards I bought last year (in december) are currently 400% more expensive. Goddamn I hate AI so much right now. I bought them because I heard it would get bad. If I knew it was gonna be this bad I woulda bought 10 more.

Agreed. The only two I go to anymore are Taco Bell (because open late) and Raising Cane's because they're also open pretty late and actually still a decent value. It also seems like a store that only really sells one thing is usually pretty fast and almost always consistent.

Millennial here. There wasn't a ton of "house parties" as shown in the high school movies in my town, maybe one or two of those per year. It was more common a "small" group of people, maybe 15-20 which is probably still more than the OP has experienced.

I started a youtube channel to talk about self-development ideas I learn about, because at this point I've probably forgotten more of them than I've retained. Maybe if I make videos about the things I learn they'll stick better.. or at least I'll have a video to watch about it.

Rewatching the Original Star Wars trilogy. On RotJ. Why did we all have such a crush on Boba Fett? He kinda "dies" like a bitch. Like he's supposed to be this elite bounty hunter and he all he does is float over to the skiff and miss a bunch of shots and then get knocked out by a blind guy.

I'm not singling them out, the topic is sex scenes. It's just one of many places that cuts could be made to a lot of films.

Ironically the one that first comes to mind is from Zach and Miri make a porno, which is one of my favorite flicks.

Ben Semisch @bensemisch.bsky.social · 09/08/2026
For me it has less to do with puritanical up-bringing and more to do with the fact that rarely does the sex scene really move the story. You can kinda just imply it and move on to the next beat of the story. I can only think of a handful of sex scenes where it was really critical.

I was disappointed with the ending of the original run, thought the last season could have easily been 2 seasons or at least a few more episodes to flesh out some of the story lines a bit more. Watched the first episode of the new season tonight and really loved it. I'm looking forward to the rest.

Ben Semisch @bensemisch.bsky.social · 07/08/2026
Did you like the second one? That one just didn't hit for me so I haven't been terribly interested in the third one. I still enjoy the first one though. Not sure if it's just the nostalgia or they were just able to capture lightning in a bottle on that one.

But they have a democratic governor who SHOULD be allowed to appoint anyone. Imagine them not just having one less vote, but essentially losing 2 votes in a seat flip.

Get ready with me comic
4 panel comic titled “get ready with me”
Panel 1 - a guy is bringing a bowl of food to his cat - the caption says “this is my cute little morning routine”
Panel 2 - he watches as his cat eats the food, behind them is an ominous black portal bordered with skulls and with tentacles coming out of it
Panel 3 - he sits in a recliner with a cup of coffee and his cat at his feet. He says “ahh so nice” - the portal is still lurking behind them
Panel 4 - he’s now reading a book. The cat is sleeping in his lap. The portal still looms. He says “the trick is to ignore the void of infinite horrors “

Has anyone come up with a good list of words to block if you just want some of your social media to be whimsical places of escapism? Like I don't need to be bombarded by bullshit every single time I log onto every single social media site. Gimme one where I can pretend the world isn't on fire.

I don't know enough about the comic lore, but as a movie fan I'm burnt out on the extended universe/multi-verse stuff. I wanna go back to one director, one hero, give'em a trilogy then sunset it for awhile.

Is there a way to filter "only some people can reply" from my feed? I don't need care for people I don't follow to be dropped into my feed and not be able to respond. Kinda ruins the whole point of the site for me.

I try to stay positive on main, but I don't know, man, asking for some level of "authenticity" in a depiction of a story with Cyclopes, a sorceress who transmutes sailors into pigs, singing sea witches, and gods turning a two week cruise into a 20 year voyage sounds absolutely dumb as fuck to me.

Psst: He doesn't give a shit about advancing US interest. He just wants to advance his own interests and guessing what those are on any given day is a fool's errand. He's literally a horse in a hospital.
