It is impossible to make a game about war that isn’t political- at the very least you’re committing to either “war is defensible” or “war is hell”.

Choosing between “Tiramisu” and “Tacos” is truly a Sophie’s Choice...

Nowadays I choose when to grocery shop mostly on anticipating “when are a lot of other people not going to be grocery shopping” and I buy things in order “maximize the time before I have to go back” since, you know, global pandemic.

Pretty bummed I never got to try a Garfaccino.

Cap’n Crunch.  I made Cap’n Crunch cereal milk ice cream once and it was frankly absurdly good.

All I want is a Series S with a disc drive, so I can keep my 360 and OG Xbox games.  “Me buying a 4k TV in the next 10 years” is pretty unlikely, TBH.

My question is about the “mixed spice”. Is that something I should special order, or can I just make it if I have cinnamon, coriander, caraway, nutmeg, ginger,clove, allspice, and mace sitting around? Is just “2 tsp of any combination of spices that works with pumpkin” what I’m going for here?

While cookbook authors tend to be underpaid, MTN DEW probably miscalculated based on the $30 price. There are a huge number of better and more interesting cookbooks in that price range, so the only value of this is novelty and $30 is a lot for novelty (particularly given that basically everything in it is going to be…

Initially I read the headline of, and thought they were making an action figure line *of the cocktail* which made me think about which action figures depicting cocktails I would buy. Maybe a Ramos Gin Fizz and a Mai Tai.

Presumably McDonalds approached Beyond with an offer like “Hey, we want to create a plant based burger, and we want your help, but we want it to taste like a McDonalds burger”.

I’m still content to just play the originals, but I’m glad that people who want a shinier version can get one.  The Mass Effect trilogy I want is one they’ve rebuilt to have unified game mechanics over the three games, but waiting for that might be a while.

“Some of those who work forces, are the same who burn crosses...and I want to be clear that we are talking about the intersection of law enforcement and white supremacy... which is a bad thing, you should not want that.”

For the last few years, which have had a lot of anxiety associated with them, it’s been Crypt of the Necrodancer. Since you have to actually listen to the music to follow the beat, it is a great source of abnegation.

The conspiracy theory du jour is that Trump voters (who apparently can be distinguished easily by sight) were given sharpies instead of regular black pens, thus causing their ballots to be invalidated... as though a scantron can differentiate between two kinds of black ink.

They’re going to have to figure out whether to say “count the votes” or “stop counting the votes” since what they really mean is “only count the votes that go the way I want them to go” but that’s not a convincing argument.

But the poor pupper has to get those things out!

Sometimes I google image search“trypophobia” because I like looking at all the pictures of things with little holes in them... do I have trypophilia?

Are we going to be spared a “WAR ON CHRISTMAS” reactionary outrage this time, since those people have something else to get mad about now (sharpies apparently)?

I mean the Space Jam website is still up basically unchanged from its original form, if you needed a template to copy from for a website of that era.

Yes. In my home growing up, as my grandparents were immigrants from Sweden, all of the Christmas festivities continued until January 13th (Tjugondag Jul) at which point you took down the tree, etc.
