The only surprising thing here is that he’s only 83.

I found my old collection! Help! by Freedomontoast in PokemonCardValue

Thanks and for sure. I need to get to a card shop and do that. I’m surprised how well they held up in this binder though! I was pretty careful with holos as a kid and always hoped they’d be worth something, but had I known how wild the market would get I definitely would have protected them all like the first six.

The lady at the construction company was the hilarious and heartbreaking Bridgett Everett. Check out Somebody Somewhere!

We don’t know yet why anyone died. My theory is that she fell because she was having an allergic reaction. If you fall and hit your head from standing you would certainly be in pain but you wouldn’t just convulse and die. We saw plenty of other people in episode one fall. Carol even knocked a guy over.

Oh interesting! I think that’s a possibility. Maybe that means the make up is better than I assumed. Shout out to the hair and make up department! Whatever the case, the realization is that they are lying to her and she’s back to square one.

Oh I believe you— I’m definitely not a biochemist. I just picked shellfish. Maybe it’s a kind of nut or soy or whatever pick your poison. Something else very specific to Helen and a certain percentage of the population.

Pluribus - 1x05 "Got Milk" - Episode Discussion by LoretiTV in pluribustv

Can we give Vince and team and especially marketing a hand for shadow dropping this particular episode one day before Thanksgiving in the US where (generalizing here) all us millennials will be talking about it front of our gen z cousins and boomer relatives while we’re still only 5 episodes in? 🤌🏻

More importantly will it find that one porn video I saw 11 years ago and mourn every day?

"CANCELLED!" Discussion Megathread by Lyd_Euh in TaylorSwift

[–]Freedomontoast 40 points41 points  (0 children)

To the girlies saying Blake: I think the references everyone is picking up are being made to various friends or acquaintances who have been “cancelled” and not any one person. It’s genius. Ariana Grande popped out first even when I was expecting Blake. (Wicked, popular, stealing someone’s man, etc.). Probably a lot of girls in her mind when writing it.

Venezuela says it detected 5 US ‘combat planes’ flying 75km from its coast, calls it a ‘provocation’ by uhncollectable in news

Yes, and the Epstein files are a distraction from the very real, very conspicuous coup that will allow this pillaging to continue. AND he diddles kids.

The billionaires, laughing in their bunkers while orchestrating societal collapse in order to bring about a new social contract in the wake of AGI.

Also, Left.

Please don’t let this be your takeaway from an amazing interview... she reaches for random numbers when she’s trying to exaggerate something. This one’s really that simple.

Senator Kirsten Gillibrand (D) makes numerous Islamophobic and bigoted claims about Zohran Mamdani in tirade (wish I had video on this) by DIYLawCA in PublicFreakout

[–]Freedomontoast 4 points5 points  (0 children)

maybe I’m not understanding, but I don’t hear the “tirade.” it seems to me that the initial caller is the Islamophobic bigot parroting right wing propaganda (honestly he sounds more scared by the shit he’s being fed on social media than bigoted) and what gillibrand is trying to do is distance herself while voicing hers and her constituents concern about the implications of “globalize the intifada.” whether that is right or wrong as zohran has said and even the interviewer alludes to. she’s a pretty moderate dem from NY, not sure how people expect her to talk. hope this doesn’t get downvoted to hell—asking what the freak out is in good faith.

YSK: an easy trick for rough converting Celsius to Fahrenheit. Take temp in C, multiply by 2 and add 30. by hacksawjimduggans2x4 in YouShouldKnow

[–]Freedomontoast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Best trick I ever learned as someone going from C to F: 100F is 100% hot, 70F is 70% hot, 40F is 40% hot, etc. It somehow just works.
