If Trump has the choice between exercising self-control — or even just exercising — and popping a pill, we all know which one he is doing.

As a couple who spent our children’s early years daydreaming about buying some property down the road and erecting a “sex yurt” to get some private time, my wife and I can only nod appreciatively hearing about Newman and Woodward’s fuck hut. They lived the dream.

Serious question: how on earth do people recognize her in the videos? I assume she didn’t have a Chaturbate username like “VADemCandidate,” so was it just an open secret in some circles? Am I just incapable of recognizing faces out-of-context? This bothers me every time somebody gets caught like this — who are these…

“People just didn’t recognize who the justices were,” Barrett said. “I think that’s better. I don’t think justices should be recognizable in that sense.”

This is how you get Night City -- it will be interesting to see the resulting Cyberpunk dystopia. They can even hire Keanu to do the tourism advertising (via Neurolink, of course).

I think it’s a given how Musk’s various space ventures will play out, so Grimes really has an in for achieving her death wish.

Maybe it’s because copyright issues prevent the Guild of Navigators from plotting interstellar travel in a galaxy far, far away. It doesn’t matter if Kessel has spice if there’s no one to use it!

Let’s hope Qanon doesn’t find out about this -- we’ll end up with conspiracy theories about how the Jedi Order are a bunch of groomers ... hey, wait a minute!

Maps in genre fiction are cool; maps in Star Wars ... ... have not been to date. Schematics, on the other hand, are the bee’s knees in that galaxy far away (e.g., New Hope, Rogue One).

Indeed. “Listless” is the opposite of “listing” and would be a very good thing on a boat — although, etymologically, the list of listless has absolutely nothing to do with boats (“list” meant “desire”, so “lack of desire” is the meaning of listless).

To be honest, I find it comforting that a man named “Ramaswamy” is being pedaled by the billionaires as the new fascist flavor of the month. It really highlights the disconnect between those pulling the strings and the rascist deadenders who make up the core of the Republican party. Call it a weird hunch, but I don’t…

Shorter version: “Pick me! Pick me!”

You just know that this is going to be an anecdote in some future version of Gibson’s Decline and Fall of the American Empire. Additionally, it will delight young students translating the ancient language of that once mighty nation (and goodness knows they will need some levity after dealing with all the irregular…

Personally, I find the need to put their games down for a few years and then come back to them to finish is something particular to Larian releases. There tends to be a very deep lull/grind partway through every single Divinity game that kills my desire to keep going. A few years later, though, I forget about that…

Becoming completely unmoored from history never works out well for a civilization. Between censorship crusades targeting history, misguided attempts to de-problematize classic literature, and the wholesale disappearance of large swaths of our movie and television past, we’re creating a world where yesterday is a rumor…

“Sorry, officer, but I can’t help it if someone gets wrecked whenever I back up this dumptruck of mine.”

Come on, now! The programmers of this simulation are just f@cking with us now, right?

It sometimes seems like PETA is trying to prove the moral superiority of animals by being the crappiest people they possibly can be. You have to admire that kind of commitment to the messaging!

I don’t know ... I went opening weekend as an seven year old with my parents and grandfather (WWII veteran and Star Wars fan; he would die a few months later — not related, I think). When I walked out, it was with mixed feelings. I loved everything that happened on and around the Death Star. I had very strong feelings…

Yes, let’s all make jokes even though we all know what happens when someone — let alone something — messes with the property of the rich. It is almost certain that within the next twelve months there will be government-sanctioned (if not just military) ships in those waters hunting these orcas to “cull” the bad actors.
