Mainstream America: We are obsessed with Heated Rivalry and Drag Race. We love them and can't get enough.
American Democrat politicians: LGBT people are not culturally normal. We will not speak of them.

For Americans struggling with high gas prices, remember that you can save money by taking little sips from the gas pump instead of big gulps

A cropped picture of a pink-skinned bearded guy pasted onto a digital bust thats bald and pale yellow by comparison and has no beard, making it look like the character has the world’s weirdest goatee

Why didnt anyone tell me the character creator in Virtua Tennis 4 on the PS Vita lets you take and use a picture of yourself and is therefore the world’s greatest character creator

I totally forgot to say it earlier in the week but this video felt a whole lot like someone at Apple saw the Switch 2 announcement video and said “okay do THAT.” youtu.be/u3SIKAmPXY4?...

One of the biggest shocks in my life was that time i saw Teller outside a coffee shop and said hi, and he not only spoke, but did so with a thickly New York-accented baritone voice.

Yes but all i can think about is how I could not afford one tv, let alone several, a sports streaming subscription, and a tablet in my late 20s.

Desus tweeted that we should all get an amber-alert style notification when it happens and I’ve never wanted something more

Continuing my all-Wario Lands playthrough in a bit! Still on Wario Land 4, and I have a (probably unrealistic) dream of finishing the game tonight.

Hacked Prayer App Sends ‘Surrender’ Messages to Iranians Amid Israeli and US Strikes As Israeli airstrikes hit Tehran this morning, Iranians received mysterious push notifications saying that “help is on the way,” promising amnesty if they surrender.

You know, I went to a show Thursday night, saw two weird, fun bands in a tiny venue. It wasn’t packed, it wasn’t empty. The vibe was good. For all the talk about AI slop and such, tech blows at replicating that experience.

I think some folks forget there is good meat space out there.
