Can we, as a society, just start referring to it as James Cameron’s Avatar, as opposed to Avatar: The Last Airbender?  One of them is a beloved series with an interesting setting, a variety of great stories and a stable of wonderful characters, and the other one is composed of a single movie, a disney ride, and the…

I have to admit, I didn’t know until I came down to the comments that they were non-binary and didn’t use he/him.  I’m guessing it’s not terribly uncommon since they’re not in the news that often.

No kidding.  Wait until the anxiety is high enough to motivate you to scramble to get something done, but not so high that you dissociate and collapse in on yourself like a black hole.

Yeah, but the puppy has to be wearing a really obvious cat costume.

I wish I loved anything the way you love Campari. That being said, I’ve got campari, vermouth and gin, so I guess I’ll go make a Negroni.

I mean, it says she’s currently unemployed, and this all happened in the last month and a half - I’m guessing going out to buy an Android phone and ditch the iCloud account that presumably has a lot of her work and documentation might be a little low on her list.

“I’m a slasher!” “... of prices!”

I’ve never heard of the “twisties”, but it A) Makes perfect sense that you would have times when you struggle with orientation without having something fixed under you and B) Sounds fucking terrifying. The way she (and all high-level gymnasts I guess) throw themselves in the air with the expectation that they’ll land…

I think the new translation is: “Friends are very important.  Imagine if you wanted to move to a new house - who would help you move your sofa, if not friends?”

There are folks who speedrun video…

I was about to post that it could do everything there except the PS3 controller, but a look around the internets turns this up:

Thomas Middleditch is what you’d get if you asked someone to draw a caricature of a white man running a pick-up artist seminar at a gaming convention.

There’s not really anything in previous episodes to hint at what’s going on - let’s call it a newly discovered property of the rings that’ll become important next season.

Wow, that is an incredibly well-written reddit post.  I’m really, really impressed.
