The initial Undercover announcement mentioned a return to Discus would be coming soon 

Yes, but even once Kinja is gone, I think those of us who lived through it will still carry the scars. It’ll be like the end of ‘Lord of the Rings’, where the world has been saved but the Hobbits are forever changed by the ordeal.

Now they just need to get their comments section off Kinja and we can finally leave the nightmare of the Herb Years behind.

It wouldn’t be right if GWAR wasn’t first up. Perfectly chosen song for them. 

Hell yeah! Kicking this off with a bang.

Yep, this is completely awesome. AVC is officially back, baby!

Oh, it is absolutely a bad look. I wouldn’t want to be in his position. Good lord, we’ll be hearing about it for decades.

But look at it in terms of sentencing and parole. You are sentenced for committing a crime. That sentence is determined by several things, including your conduct during the trial. If you are up for

One side’s narrative is what actually happened, and another side’s narrative is designed for a very specific purpose. Both sides are not the same.

A lot of people seem to be missing the point that this shooting was an example of right-on-right violence. The shooter wasn’t old enough to have voted in a presidential election before, but he was a registered Republican. Any rightwinger claiming that they are under attack from outside forces is lying. The shots are

To wit, he acted offended that he wasn’t invited to John McCain’s funeral and remarked, “We’re not going to support that loser’s funeral.”

I don’t think you are paying attention. He’s been threatening political violence for years now.

Trump seems like he would initially pretend to be remorseful that Biden was killed, but would start insulting him again the same day.

Biden’s “bullseye” remark was clearly a metaphor, one tailor-made for a country that has more guns than people. Trump, meanwhile, has talked repeatedly about having his political rivals executed for treason. This includes, it’s important to note, sham military tribunals for Congresspeople/civilians, such as Liz

Even President Joe Biden had to apologize for his metaphorical remark that it was ‘time to put Trump in a bullseye’”

He was going to be sentenced last Thursday. He could have been safety in prison this weekend.

If shit could be less weird for, like, a day? That’d be fun.

Faerie Tale Theatre really was SUCH a forgotten gem of a show. I was lucky enough that our family had cable, but what I remember the most was how popular the VHS releases were. Every video store (and there were many in our area) had them all and they were always out of rental copies. Eventually I settled for doing

Well the point of the article isn’t to introduce people to great shows they haven’t heard of, no matter how stacked the cast is.

Unpopular take: I trended away from The Oatmeal after his series of comics detailing just how fucking great his Tesla was. This was even before a lot of the Musk hate - it was more just a very, very dumb series of comics about how much he looked down on other car owners, basically, for not having a Tesla. You know -

This seems like a classic case of “Well, we have IP that doesn’t really have much of story, so...ummm, well, we’re just going to have to make shit up.”
