“Super Mario was based on an Italian man I saw die in an accident on a construction site. I thought to myself, ‘What if that man had been killed by a gorilla, rather than negligence?’ - Shigeru Miyamoto
Happy Mario day!
A picture of a bottle of wine sitting on a kitchen counter. The wine is called DRACULA wine and the label has a picture of fuckin Dracula doing the cape over the lower face move. The bottle of wine has a gorgeous little red satin lined Dracula cape hanging around its neck. Judge not lest ye be judged
I have not always been the best with money but relax, this bottle of wine wearing a cape cost UNDER $18
Can't think of a good Chester Gould name for him. Best I've got is Audit O'Hairline.

nice argument. however i have already portrayed myself as the insouciant Egg and you as the scalding Dunk.
Over the holidays I played Legos with my 4-year-old nephew and I watched him round up all the sparkly crystalline bricks while whispering to himself “Beautiful. Beautiful. Only beautiful things” and this has become a permanent part of my lexicon
Honestly fair fucks to Vittorio Angelone for calling out Penny Mordaunt on Last Leg
Picard: It's a computer simulation of thoroughbred horse racing called Umamusume Pretty Derby. The program was quite popular in the 21st century.
Riker: Mm. 'Pretty' is accurate. That Goldship is quite something.
Picard: I hadn't noticed. I enjoy the simulation's tactical qualities.
Riker: Yes, sir.
went back in time to introduce a Victorian child to pizza but instead they got me hooked on some kind of embalming fluid they were all doing. these kids are fucked up
Film posters here often have a game of Yahtzee taking place at the top of them
I'll always be obsessed with this edit made by @tommchenry.bsky.social
Appeals to the old guard of the Academy - 60+ guys seeing this 60+ guy show a youngster how it's done in a throwback-y sports movie - and the technical branches too - it is a pretty impressive feat of craft and effects work, even if it's in service of big old shrug. It's no Speed Racer.
this is the sound of being alive in 2026 tbqh
"Listen you blue cunt, fuck off, cunt, are you getting that fucking emerald for me or not you spiny cunt?"
Left panel: Imelda Staunton as queen elizabeth in the latter seasons of the crown, older white woman looking imperious short Greg white hair wearing pearls and a dress with a purple black and blue paisley pattern. On the right a deck from the video game Balatro, the back of the card has a marbled dark and light purple, black, and gold swirly pattern that looks kinda like the paisley
ME: Queen Elizabeth, you better not be dressed like the Magic deck from Balatro when I get there
QUEEN ELIZABETH:

Ok I have far too much to do today to spend more than 2 minutes on this but here’s my political cartoon of the day, please enjoy
Hey @flophousepodcast.com! Needed to let you know that the Million Dollar Prank House basically exists - and it seems exhausting www.instagram.com/reel/DUNGKnB...
Hope you also heard from Norwegian consortium of Nåånan, Nøønan and Næænan.
just had a zoom call with tom niinan, tom nuunan and tom naanan, always tragic to lose one of our own, especially such a talented one.
I’ve given up for lent.
My driving instructor, who I got on with and was a nice guy, wasn't always the best at small talk. Driving down the A14, he pointed out the sign to a crematorium and said 'That's where Myra Hindley was cremated.'
More work on the chunky lad. Need to rework the fleshy growth on the mace a little!

Duval, in full priest garb, swinging in an SF park next to a child.
my favorite Robert Duvall role is where he appears as a priest on a swing for 2 seconds for no apparent reason in Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1978)
Watched Open Range for the first time not the long ago and it's such a lovely performance
I said "what a buddy Batou is," fifteen minutes and one crude video edit later, the brainworms gave control back
Romeo is a Dead Man throws everything at the wall, it keeps mixing things up, you’re constantly just surprised by fucking menus. It’s not even a question of resources or processing power, they found ways that are both more interesting and less intensive for even walking around a ship.
