also the Marauder often inhabited the body of one of the guys' girlfriend and listen I don't know what kinda weird psychological residue that might leave but it sounds like it shoulda made for something either dramatic or kinky or both

when I was smol I read a story in Boy's Life Magazine (the magazine for boy scouts) that had the different ways to write a 7 as a plot point and I decided it was neat so I started adding the dash to the middle and then I just never stopped

it's because of the magnificence! Seven is actually a really cool number. Only prime number that precedes a cube! Bunches of mythological and esoteric connotations! Days in the week! Plus it's lucky! What's not magnificent about that, I ask?

never forget that Marvel had a comic book about a team of Evel Knevils who occasionally blacked out and manifested a collective consciousness called the Marauder who was a super Evel Knevil also the Thing was a member briefly

I don't know anything about this promotion (and judging by the empty seats neither does anyone else), but who thought it was a good idea to name it after the section of the supermarket where they keep the tomatoes

This is my semi-regular reminder to you all that muting can be way more satisfying than blocking if you block them they see 'account blocked' but if you mute them they get nothing so they just argue endlessly with the void waiting for replies that never come, which feels far more satisfying to me

what the hell are you talking about? Are you jumping threads? Can you smell toast? You know what, never mind; you've quite clearly adopted a worldview that in no way meshes with my understanding of reality, and no matter what the causes, it does mean there's no point in trying to communicate

"Maybe you should rethink your posts" oh shut the HELL up universe, maybe you should rethink global fuckin' warming or something. No? No? Piss off, then

Sure, that's why all the articles that ran when Platner dropped out went "I guess the Bluesky crowd was right!" You can go back and look at them, by the way, in case you need evidence that your understanding of the situation is genuinely 180 degrees removed from the truth

uh huh enjoy the site that tries to tell you "Nazi tattoos are no big deal actually" and then sit and think about what beliefs are bizarre This may shock you, but some of us don't WANT to consistently marinate in Elon Musk's worldview or the algorithm that promotes it hth

After pitch ten and eleven were both fouled off out of the strike zone, I would have just kept swinging, I would have been so caught up in the moment and that's one of many reasons why pro baseball players are athletes, fuck the haters

if those guys didn't wanna get killed, they shouldn't've been bad anyway Princess Allura is the only royal I respect and that's cause she pilots a Voltron lion just like the commoners at her side

Shawn Connolly @divinecoffeebinge.bsky.social · 1h

Legitimately incredibly impressive not just for fouling off all those pitches, for fouling off pitches that were out of the strike zone and still having the presence of mind to take that last pitch

Shawn Connolly @divinecoffeebinge.bsky.social · 1h

Can't go wrong with some Voltron lions, they're like potatoes. Even if they don't add much to the dish you're always happier when they're there

There are a couple of spots in APOLLO 13 where you can see anachronistic logos or emblems here and there and they annoy me, but I love them because when I hear other people complaining about them, I know I've found my tribe

hey, above and beyond any of the many other issues with this, did anyone else notice that this author describes a "sticky biological reality" with a "probably" and a "may" There is no fact being asserted here, just a guess being presented with the confidence of a mediocre white guy

everyone forgets she didn't go through one in 2020 either, dropping out before the first ballots were cast I don't think it's unreasonable to suspect that the candidate who has never endured that particular gauntlet and who has in fact avoided it at every step might not in fact endure it well
