Neopets has a partnership with a company called Geekify for all physical merch. Geekify ran a kickstarter a while ago for a Neopets TTRPG and raised around 425K to ship a unique noncombat focused TTRPG centering around the existing Neopets world and lore.

photo of an all-white male cat sleeping in a cardboard box, which is labeled "Kirkland signature salted sweet cream butter". the cat is resting his head on one of the box corners, with his neck at an awkward up-angle. still, he looks completely content, as his eyes are closed...

same as the other photo description in terms of the white cat and cardboard box, except this time, the cat is resting his... nose? upper lip? against the same box corner as before. this does not look comfortable either, but he STILL seems content.......

he is salted sweet cream butter......

worth remembering, David Lynch directed “fix your hearts or die” specifically at transphobes. it wasn’t a generic “no mean people allowed” statement, it was said by his Twin Peaks character in defense of a trans woman he cared for and deeply respected.

On this day in video game history:

*taste-testing blindfolded*
ME: This one must be the Diet Coke, because it's cold. The other one must be the coffee.
TESTER: Correct.

My scheming and duplicitous grand vizier was caught planning a surprise party for me

Timothy Olyphant Goku: you best leave my boy alone and get outta here if you know what’s good for you

Walton Goggins Vegeta: I reckon there’s more fun to be had on this here rock

Danny McBride Nappa: I came here with 10 tons of kick and I intend to see it delivered to your ass

Computer: Tea; iced; from Panera; that kills you. Authorization code Picard-Gamma-Seven.

PTT 840.85 MEMORY It's worse than we thought, Snake. New intel confirms that FOX-HOUND has developed several new types of guy.

PTT 840.85 MEMORY There's psychic gas mask guy. Minigun shaman guy. Weird chameleon guy. Cat guy - who's also a revolver guy, by the way. That's like two types of guy almost.

based on ticket prices at the time and box office revenue, it's actually very plausible that the 2019 film Nancy Drew and the Hidden Staircase was seen by exactly 69,420 people. very proud to have been one of the brave few to have caught this one in theaters

Girl who's into praise kink but also power scaling: but am I a good enough girl to defeat Goku

M is for maybe this starts with an m N is for next letter, and that one's an n E is for easy, like spelling this word M is for magpie, the stealingest bird O is for only three more letters to go N is for nearly there, you mnemonic pro I is for imminent, this poem's end C is for congratulations, my spellingwell friend

If you are unsure of how to spell mnemonic, here is a handy mnemonic:

Sensei Sergio St. Carlos dancing next to his car. he's had a few small beers.

a real fact about me: I completed all the requirements to graduate from high school in 3.5 years. I took a full semester of classes for the final spring semester because I wasn't sure if they'd let me be in any academic clubs if I wasn't enrolled in any classes (and I did not bother asking)

Pombon, the new Pokemon fire starter. A Pomeranian with red highlights.

Greater Dog, a giant dog knight from Undertale.

“What’s Pombon gonna evolve into.”
“I hope it doesn’t get big and humanoid.”
“There’s no way to know what it’s gonna look like.”

It was there all along.

I saw the horse anime movie today, which was fun as someone who previously did not know anything specific about the horse girls, but the most exciting part is the fact that at some point Tony Zaret will do a video where knowledge of this movie will be key to deciphering an incomprehensible b-plot.

PANEL 1: NARRATOR: "Cultivating the measured NPR cadence and placid deference to the military that characterizes the ideal neoliberal subject, Clark Kent returns to the editorial meeting..." A group of DAILY PLANET reporters are in a meeting, Clark Kent is responding to a question from his boss. CLARK: "Well, chief, the bombing campaign--" PANEL 2: Clark is talking and the other reporters and co-workers look unhappy. CLARK: "Obviously war in the region is not-ah-"ideal," but regime change could ultimately provide socioeconomic benefits that far outweigh the regrettable civilian casualties..." CLARK (thinking): "As Superman, last son of Krypton, these words of course sicken me; however, it's Clark Kent's job to manufacture consent!" PANEL 3: (inset in a larger panel) One reporter is whispering to another. REPORTER: "Kent is such an off-putting sociopath" REPORTER 2: "I hope he kills himself". An arrow points to this inset panel that reads "Thanks to super-hearing" from Clark's ear. Clark is smiling and thinking to himself. CLARK (thinking): "Looks like my secret identity as Clark Kent is safe...FOR NOW!"

the mild manners are job security, baby

a movie so good that it's worth living in a world with all the bad attempts to copy it

Quentin Tarantino should have been run out of town for speaking ill of this man

Picture of Marjane Satrapi alongside a quote from her. The quote reads: The world is not divided into countries. The world is not divided between East and West. You are American, I am Iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk together and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you. And our governments are very much the same... - Marjane Satrapi, Iranian-French graphic novelist

Thinking about this quote from Persepolis creator Marjane Satrapi again.

Growing up is realizing you are Calvin’s dad and it’s a good thing.

Misato driving and talking on the phone with the caption: Diane, 11:30 a.m., February 24th. Entering the town of Twin Peaks.

Happy Twin Peaks Day.

if you think it's bad that KPDH and Frankenstein are getting Criterion Collection releases, that's your opinion, but also: please give me a list of the top 10 new releases you genuinely loved in 2025 that you financially supported in some way, or else I'm going to disregard your opinion

more and more I'm becoming convinced that a lot of people don't actually like movies — they like discourse, and movies are a low-effort way to be part of a spicy conversation. this is about the new Criterion Collection releases, but it's an idea I've been thinking about for several months now.

Sharing “genderless burger experience” here for those who haven’t seen it

in about a month and a half, season 2 of Lasagna Cat will be as old as season 1 was when it came out. will we get season 3? I mean, probably not. but anything is possible
