Yeah, I’m in a rural area so internet for me isn’t great. The idea of Google stadia has absolutely no appeal for me and that’s before all the lack of ownership and Google having a long and storied history of shutting down services.

Yes, but dammit, we COOK with it. Let’s see you make all your lovely baked goods, sauces, and mac n cheese dishes without it!

Fuck off

io9 is a faint shadow of its former self.

I’ve got three go-to games to play stoned.

Nonsense. Melania knows how to raise children. After all, the greatest principle in Melania’s life is that she may not harm, nor allow by inaction to come to harm, a human being.
