Hang on, what does a panda wearing an anteater hat have to do with anything?

Have to say I’ve never understood why high speed rail hasn’t taken off here in the US. There are some routes where it would be perfect - Denver to Chicago for example. Chicago to New Orleans is another. Atlanta to almost anywhere on the east coast and/or Texas. TGVs are so much nicer than aircraft and with all the…

You might say it’s a port of call – home away from home – for diplomats, hustlers, entrepreneurs, and wanderers.

Happy Canada Day.

He is such a fucking national embaressment.

AI is the next flying car: always seemingly around the corner, but never really here. This is true today as much as it was during the first AI hype in the 1980s, when Minsky & co promised us AI within ten years. Keep in mind that there is an inflationary use of the term ‘AI’: What is so conveniently called AI these…

Those are three cartoons with very different animation styles.

Yeah, it’s clever and funny and well-written. It won me over for good when it did a Star Trek: Voyager style status quo reset button, but it’s clear that the implications of that reset are horrifying. The show is just layers and layers of sci-fi deconstruction and lampshade hanging wrapped in surprisingly compelling…

I don’t watch Adventure Time or Steven Universe, but the writing on Rick & Morty is absolutely brilliant, in terms of comedy, world-building and character development. That’s why I’m fascinated by it. Can’t speak to others’ experiences. The animation seemed odd to me at first, so I get that complaint, but I got over…

I’m gonna squanch the shit out of this.

Oh fuck. Now millions of Trumplings will start thinking “Internet Tax” is a thing. Every goddamned day with this man is a fucking nightmare.

I think Donald may know a thing or two about not paying taxes.

How is it possible for a 71 year old man to have ZERO social graces???

Like the Harry Potter books, you look at it and think, “Yeah, it’s a thing I recognize.” Then you find yourself three hours later still poring over all the details. I’ve let pretty much all my older D&D stuff drift away. But I keep the Greyhawk box just to protect that map.

Show of hands, who wants the title image as actual minis?

Thanks to David and Brandon for making this weekend the greatest automotive experience of my life thus far. The Briarwood will always be the anchor of my future fleet of shit boxes and I owe it all to you guys.

If I live to be 100 on my deathbed I could probably trace the lines of Darlene Cook’s Greyhawk map from memory. It was like wikipedia in that you couldn’t just look at one part and then leave it be.

“You could see there was blood coming out of her eyes, blood coming out of her... wherever,”

“Once you’re President, you can do whatever you want. Grab ‘em by the pussy. Taft knows what I’m talking about.”

My dog deletes all of his own tweets. I know this because I know he’s up at night while I’m asleep, but in the morning I don’t see any of his tweets.
