Can anyone explain to me why the handcuffs are tied to a chain around his body? It’s obviously to limit his arm movement so he can’t put someone in a e.g. a chokehold, but why are they not just holding his arms in that case? IIRC it’s my first time seeing a chain used for that. Are they so afraid of him?

As a complete chess beginner I’m so happy I understood this meme holyhell

How has nobody memed this yet? You guys seem waaay too comfortable sharing personal information for the fact that this is the website of linux nerds, don’t you care about online privacy?

Rummages my brain in EU (Could you pls explain who this references? Assuming this is even referencing a single person. Google listed Jim Inhofe’s wikipedia when I looked up “us senator mountains” but the article didn’t say anything about mountains)

If a friend was sending their pretty legally obtained books that they downloaded from different website via the TOR browser to themselves via Telegram to have an easy way to download them on their tablet, should they stop that and connect their tablet to their PC via an USB cable instead?

Asking for a friend.

I always thought these were at least 50% ironic. Please don’t tell me you don’t actually want websites OP.

Leaving a comment in hopes of you telling me when you or someone else creates it

Just a guess, but I assume magazines are part of physical press. I know a lot of millenials (according to this definition of millenial) who buy magazines for their interests, be it music, games, geology, astronomy or history. A lot of times it overlaps with having been in tertiary education and I assume Gen Z would show similar statistics if you asked someone who was pursuing a masters degree or a doctorate.

It looks to be past-this-year-april-recent since the icon next to the username was a thing tumblr did for April Fools this year.

(Sorry old man)

Inside Llewyn Davis is one of my favorite movies for how it essentially deals with depression, but Dave van Ronk being an ally even if just in throwing bricks makes it even better imo

Damn so 196 is where all the Expanse fans are?! Because they’re certainly not on tumblr and I don’t wanna go back to reddit just for some Expanse memes

An episode of Star Trek after a long day.

My friends/sibling.

Researching my niche interests/finding out I share a niche interest with someone.

Taking a mental health walk.

Snacking unhealthy amounts of camembert, drinking black tea and Berber (green tea with spearmint) tea, snacking cucumber.

Eating good Falafel/Sushi/Asian/Middle-Eastern cuisine.

A good workout/feeling completely exhausted after doing martial arts.

Being able to help other people.

And because of your username: playing TotK.

I think it’s just that trans people will find it easier to transition from one dying platform to a beautiful new one. (I’m so sorry, but you basically set up the punchline for me, I’ll show myself out now.)

OP are you making these yourself? Or do you know where they come from? This really tickles my funny bone, I love them Claire’s memes.

You were the only one who asked a question that I could answer, it’s been too long since I last saw The Big Lebowski so I have no clue what the other comment is referencing tbh ^^’

Is everyone just commenting because of the instance I signed up on?! (Hi to the other Star Trek person, I see you ;)) I mean I welcome it, but I fear you’ll have to wait a few years before rail has warp drive, roughly until the 23rd century…
(Also disclaimer for everyone who reads this; I didn’t make this meme and I can’t remember where I downloaded it, I just thought this is perfect 196 material, but if the OP sees this and wants it removed I’ll do so of course)
