I feel that Nazgûl sightings would be one of those things that would cause a Waffle House to close.

To be sure, we really need to use multiple trucks. For science.

I can't believe people are actually celebrating the death of Dennis Hastert just because *reads literally anything about Dennis Hastert* Oh. Carry on then.

Additional counter-proposal: The good stuff it can do shouldn't be hampered by robust regulation.

May your Wednesday be uneventful. If you haven't already, you may want to figure out what you're watching now.

The last acknowledgments I read in one her books had a recommendation for her native plant guy, so I have no doubt there's... creative interpretation going on.

The dragon watched the girl climb up to its mountain lair. She stopped to catch her breath, then shouted: "Oi! I've got some questions." "Ask." "Princesses, why?" "They're educated and smell nice." "No noble blood?" "All humans are humans." "Yes! The revolution is go! Cheers!" "Good luck."

I think most people naturally speak at 1.25x or 1.5x speed, because that's the speed, for me, where audiobooks sound right.

In honor of r/ExplainAFilmPlotBadly, finally, guessing Godzilla Minus One correctly, I'm going to rewatch it. It probably would have gone faster if I'd remembered just how common "man must care for children" was used as a comedy plot. And if Reddit understood what a baby is.

Why am I suddenly being followed by OF accounts*? I know you're probably bots, but I'm a broke, straight, woman. I'm just going to block you. *Okay, only two so far, but that's two more than my entire time on bsky, up until yesterday.

I feel two remakes was already enough. There's elements of the original that could be improved*, but not anything major enough to need this many attempts. *Some scenes are very "male gaze"

I got asked for consent before a CT scan, but they at least had it as a yes or no question.

There's two likely sources for brown water, so I hope it's a roof leak that took a weird route.

They say that comparison is the thief of joy, but it's actually DnD rules lawyers.

If you acknowledge the serious thing first, it'll probably come across as an attempt to cheer the person up. That's not always a bad thing.

Lying down anywhere on the theater floor is a great way to see multiple screenings a film. It's cheaper to leave you there while they figure out how to unstick you.

So, my local supermarket has an option on their website to place a deli order and they'll text you when it's ready to pick up. It will, however, not text you and let you know that they can't actually fill the order, because they let you select a product the store you selected doesn't have.

I know very little about digitizing stuff, but that appears to be a reel-to-reel tape.

I assume it'll at least be slightly more obvious than the glasses. I can't think of anything else in its favor.

There's also the factor how big the IP is. You'll probably sell more Star Wars books than you would Babylon 5 books, even if you know both well.

Just blocked an account that seems to exist to be angry about a book, based on a video game, for not following a ttrpg's rules. People, it's really not that serious.

Now, now. It'll get you the Classic Luxe Box. You can probably even upgrade one of the items.

The random political poll I* was texted today had better questions than that. And I'm pretty sure it expected me to say the president was doing a great job. *Well, my number. No clue who Alexis is.

It's a weird message. How many people reach for a novelty flashlight, instead of their phone or a normal flashlight?

Just got my state/county's annual "No, we actually want you to vote" flyer. How to register to vote. How to check your voter status. How to request a mail in ballot. Where you can drop off ballots. And where and when you can vote early.
