See, I don’t understand acts of god as it pertains to insurance. Acts of god are unforeseen, unavoidable accidents. What is insurance for if not literally that exact situation?

WHY ARE YOU BUYING CLOTHES AT THE SOUP STORE?!

To say nothing of cockroaches…

Nuclear power is just boiling water

The enshittification will continue until morale improves.

It’s a joke about checkers. When you get a piece to the end of the board, that piece gets “kinged” by placing a second piece on top of it, usually one you’ve lost during the game. (That piece can then move both forwards and backwards.)

That too, but there was also a gag in an episode where they’re at a ski lodge where Fry says, “Thank god global warming never happened,” and Leela responds, “Actually it did, but thank god for nuclear winter.”

Sounds like it’s time for Vetinari to have a word with them.

That was how I felt about Blair Witch. Full disclosure, I don’t like horror to begin with, but to me the movie was about a group of people in the woods with a scary thing somewhere, and when they finally find the thing it ends.

It’s like if Texas Chainsaw was about a bunch of teenagers who stood around while you hear a chainsaw running somewhere in the distance, the cuts to black right when the killer shows up.

I couldn’t watch it, not because it wasn’t good but because I was constantly getting unbelievably depressed about how accurately it mirrors the world today. Every scene had me thinking “this would be funny if it wasn’t exactly how it would actually pan out.” I think it might be hilarious a few decades after this all blows over but right now it hits way too close to home.

I like vampires in the Pratchett universe, who often see human hunting as a sport and leave religious symbols, stakes, and garlic around the castle to level the playing field. (Not to mention the black ribbon society, the vampire equivalent to AA.)

It’s cool, he’ll replace it with his concepts of a plan.

And they won the Senate and are on track to win the house. The supreme Court is already in Trump’s pocket and even if he choked on a big Mac and keeled over tomorrow that still leaves Vance, who is just as insane as trump but knows how to make his shit palatable to anyone who hasn’t been paying attention, which as tonight proves is more than half the country. We are 1000% well and truly fucked.

The unfortunate drawback of democracy: these people get the same vote the most well-informed altruistic voters do.

*Claims to have killed, having been directly refuted by other members of the team

I think we still can’t beat Giuliani booking the four seasons gardening center next to the dildo emporium.

First past the post is bad, but the electoral college can make voter apathy unbearable. My state is more of a swing state now, but it used to be solidly red for decades, and voting blue felt like spitting in a hurricane.

Good thing he has a trans daughter, multiple major businesses, and one of the largest social media platforms. He seems bang-up for the job.
