Fun fact: A “kroner” is one of those hot dogs the Icelandians are crazy about. An Icelandic “bank” is just a big freezer full of hot dogs.

151 Icelandic kroner is about $1.23. Did you leave out the word “million”?

I know a woman named Sigurros.

It’s possible that his sudden wealth and increased isolation has been the largest contribution to his cognitive decline.

I was going to make a snarky quip about being so old that Michael Pena is playing dad characters in movies, but the school scene with the metal detector that’s played for laughs is just straight up depressing. We’re at the point that school shootings are now so normalized that we don’t even think about how fucked up

The idea that lowering the difficulty on Switch should even be entertained. 

... because reporters can only predict what has happened; they cannot predict the future.

You’d think NASA would be trying to avoid the next Challenger...

Both games have their charm and are worth playing, but I’d definitely say Into the Breach is the better title. Cheaper too, at least right now.

Yes.

There’s also a fair bit of really nasty homophobia and transphobia that I found amongst some of the creators of Overwatch videos. Apart from how bigoted and wrong it is to be like that in the modern day, it’s always dismaying to see porn dominated by assholes in more than one way. Straight men aren’t your only

Southland Tales really does suck, like, to the point where it confounds me that anyone thought it was a good idea to make it. The Rock is good in it though, he has a weird tendency to do some of his best work in truly heinous movies like that, Be Cool, and Pain & Gain.

Fortunately tattoos on your palm aren’t exactly forever. You use that part of your body with such frequency that the tattoo, especially one with such fine line work, should become a smudge of its former self in no time. So it’s meaning will be lost over time.
