The $400 25th Anniversary Kaiba briefcase kit contains 4 new cards in the TCG: 3 traps created specifically for it, and Grappler, one of the many terrible vanilla monsters from the earliest OCG sets that never got a TCG import (until this, 24 years later)

i'm happy for all knicks fans, of course, but this win means a little more to those of us who jumped on the bandwagon over the last four years. unlike the lifelong fans who root for any knicks team they put out there, we chose this team specifically. these are our guys. this is our championship

Unironically one of the funniest jokes in Star Wars history is literally that bit from Empire where an asteroid smacks into the bridge of a Star Destroyer and just flat-out kills a guy in the middle of a call with Vader, and everyone just ignores him

As you can see, Xbox held their presentation on 6/7, while Nintendo is holding theirs on 6/9. This is due to their core company missives; Nintendo holds fast to traditional (and successful!) gamer values, whereas Xbox is a brand that constantly tries to remain relevant by latching onto trends

If you're looking for suggestions, I Highly recommend The Devil's Plan on Netflix. It's a Korean competition show with very heady social and strategy games, and tight editing to maximize the impact of the (many) big brain plays. The first season has one of the best comeback moments I've ever seen.

Looking at the features of the Star Fox remake, I feel like this game will be controversial
Screenshot from the Nintendo website -

Intense Space Combat: Hop into your Arwing, a high-performance aerospace fighter, and use laser blasts to take down opposing forces. You can also brake in mid-air to get enemies off your tail (no pun intended), and, of course, pull off barrel rolls to defend against incoming fire.

Protection Against Perverse Enjoyment: The animal characters are not intended to provide sexual gratification. The Switch 2 console will shut down if it detects that the player is becoming aroused.

Alexis starts out as a strong duelist with an interesting subplot involving her missing brother. Then that gets resolved in season 1 and she just...doesn't get to do anything else for the rest of the show. She doesn't even have any solo duels after season 2

What makes this card from 5Ds especially egregious is that Yusei's opponent already had a wincon via deckout, but chose to attack Yusei's only card on the field for a complete victory. And of course, this card (last card in Yusei's hand btw) increased its DEF ~juust~ enough to give Yusei the win.

at last, we have invented retrophenology from the classic Discworld text Don’t Invent Retrophenology
Retrophrenology:
It works like this. Phrenology, as everyone knows, is a way of reading someone's character, aptitude and abilities by examining the bumps and hollows on their head. Therefore - according to the kind of logical thinking that characterizes the Ankh-Morpork mind - it should be possible to mould someone's character by giving them carefully graded bumps in all the right places. You can go into a shop and order an artistic temperament with a tendency to introspection and a side order of hysteria. What you actually get is hit on the head with a selection of different size mallets, but it creates employment and keeps the money in circulation, and that's the main thing.

The Ford Pinto had a death rate of 85 people for 10 million cars sold. The Cybertruck hasn't sold 10 million, but the fatality rate so far maths out to 1,452 people killed per 10 million sold. The Cybertruck may be the deadliest road car, for the occupants, ever sold. fuelarc.com/evs/its-offi...

This is unconscionable. Evil. But it happened in May 2023, when Biden was president. So no, we don’t “reform immigration detention,” we destroy ICE, CBP, and DHS. We can’t reform this soul sickness.

But you see, these AREN’T the only 7 Democrats who supported giving ICE more money. The Democrats OVERALL support it. These 7 are just the latest rotating villains selected to take the fall while the rest pretend to oppose to fundraise. That’s why it’s always EXACTLY enough Dem support votes to pass
