I love games and talk too much. Dynasty over redraft, and straight PPR is utterly broken. Very into old video games, but not for nostalgia reasons, some are just alot of fun. Proud normie.

The image is of a four panel comic.
The title is “Cats living together”.
The first panel shows a black cat and orange cat cuddling with their eyes closed. The orange cat says “I love you”. The black cat says “I love you too”.
The second panel zooms in on them. 
The third panel shows the orange cat opening its eyes.
The fourth panel shows the orange cat raising its paw to punch the black cat. It says, “Actually you know what”.

When journalists asked me "where we will see the effects of DOGE on outcomes?" one of my responses was "during crises...as long as media connect the dots." Well, dots connected: www.wired.com/story/cdc-cy...

“Based on simple math, these outbreak responses—which require rapid, timely responses—are going to be greatly diminished,” the former CDC lab director tells WIRED.

Schiff: The judge, in that decision on Monday, referred Blanche, basically, to the New York Bar Association because of his conduct. How is it possible that after being referred to the bar association for potential discipline on Monday, we’re contemplating this guy for attorney general on Wednesday?

Did this a few days ago, but finally beat stage 10 and scored over 80K on PacLand, which has been a goal for a game I come back to for an hour or so every few months. Got 98900 IIRC, so now on to breaking 100K. I love that freaking game!

It is the one major unforgivable thing to me, making Mario Bros 35 a short time event. My 11 year old still complains about how much he misses that game which was his favorite. I miss it, it was the perfect lunch time game and so much fun. Bring it or an updated version back damn you!!

I freaking love this game! You can play it on NSO if you have it (I think it is on Gameboy but it might be the Japanese store version of GB, can’t remember). But my favorite iteration of it is Hello Kitty World for the Famicom. It has Joust/Balloon Fight mechanics, a must try if you like those!

Another game I keep going back to I owe to my five year old who wanted me to play any and all old hello kitty games I could find. And then Hello Kitty World on Famicom was actually really good, game play in the style of Joust or Balloon Fight but it’s a side scroller.

You're in a chess tournament against last year's champion. He jumps a pawn clear across the board to take your rook. "That's not how chess works!" you say to the judge. That's when you learn the tournament's judges get appointed by the previous year's champion. (What reading the news feels like)

There is no clearer case for the necessity of Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 than how quickly southern states moved to eliminate Black-majority districts and dilute Black power after SCOTUS eroded Section 2. SCOTUS’s reasoning was immediately disproven by reality.

I joined Bluesky to talk about games and have completely failed. Anyway, in the last month I randomly played Food Fight, the early 80s arcade game, and its a freaking blast, a great 10 minute game. The Atari 7800 port is also great with difficulty sliders if you a more casual play too.

Today is officially the 30th anniversary of Steamed Hams. On April 14, 1996, "22 Short Films About Springfield" aired for the first time!
Steamed Hams full transcript

Well, Seymour, I made it- despite your directions.
Ah.
Superintendent Chalmers.
Welcome.
- I hope you're prepared for an unforgettable luncheon.
- Yeah.
Oh, egads! My roast is ruined.
But what if I were to purchase fast food and disguise it as my own cooking? Delightfully devilish, Seymour.
Ah- Skinner with his crazy explanations The superintendent's gonna need his medication When he hears Skinner's lame exaggerations There'll be trouble in town tonight Seymour! Superintendent, I was just- uh, just stretching my calves on the windowsill.
Isometric exercise.
Care to join me? Why is there smoke coming out of your oven, Seymour? Uh- Oh.
That isn't smoke.
It's steam.
Steam from the steamed clams we're having.
Mmm.
Steamed clams.
Whew.
Superintendent, I hope you're ready for mouthwatering hamburgers.
I thought we were having steamed clams.
D'oh, no.
I said steamed hams.
That's what I call hamburgers.
You call hamburgers steamed hams? Yes.
It's a regional dialect.
- Uh-huh.
Uh, what region? - Uh, upstate New York.
Really.
Well, I'm from Utica, and I've never heard anyone use the phrase "steamed hams.
" Oh, not in Utica.
No.
It's an Albany expression.
I see.
You know, these hamburgers are quite similar to the ones they have at Krusty Burger.
Oh, no.
Patented Skinner burgers.
Old family recipe.
- For steamed hams.
- Yes.
Yes.
And you call them steamed hams despite the fact that they are obviously grilled.
Ye- You know, the- One thing I should- - Excuse me for one second.
- Of course.
Well, that was wonderful.
A good time was had by all.
I'm pooped.
Yes.
I should be- Good Lord! What is happening in there? - Aurora borealis.
- Uh- Aurora borealis at this time of year at this time of day in this part of the country localized entirely within your kitchen? - Yes.
- May I see it? No.
Seymour.
! The house is on fire.
! No, Mother.
It's just the northern lights.
Well, Seymour, you are an odd fellow but I must say you steam a good ham.

We don't need to speed up production. We need to slow down. We don't need to write code faster. We need to think through what we write. We've spent decades working to ship faster, and that's landed us in a world of hurt. Build better products, not faster.

I showed this graph in class yesterday on how measles cases in the United States plummeted dramatically after the vaccine was licensed in 1963. It’s not subtle and I could not resist observing: “This stunning design in measles cases was not thanks to vitamin A. It was not due to beef tallow.”

Princess Toadstool has had a lot of iterations over the decades, but I think the most out of place seeming one released on a game for an official Nintendo console has to be the one from the Super Mario Sweater sewing instructional software on Famicom Disk System:
It’s an image of a sweater pattern of Princess Toadstool and a Piranha Plant from a Mario sewing pattern software for Famicom disk system, where Princess Toadstool looks nothing like she does in any other Mario game or intellectual asset.
