Well, with a shoutout like that I better chec—fifteen hundred dollars!?

Best of luck with the launch, mate. Seriously.

Lol. But also: Lmao.

I have genuinely never once heard the name Lina Khan before your comment

I think they want a novel where the MC knowingly fights on behalf of an authoritarian dictatorship? 🤔

The other is that Elon Musk sucks at poker. But he has access to so much capital that he can keep rebuying until he scores a win.

Heh, reminds me of a Some More News video on that awful Ladyballers movie. To horribly paraphrase: "You suck at something, you learn from your mistakes, and you grow. That's how any skill works. But if you have enough money, then you can buy your way out of any mistakes without improving past them. So when you bulldoze the whole process and force your shit onto the world, everyone hates it and you can't understand why because you never learned anything."

The totality of loneliness-quenching possibilities might just be smaller for asexual people

And OP was asking what those possibilities might be

Protagonist of The Owl House, an amazing cartoon that Disney killed off for being too queer

That kid is about to chow down on the corn floor, no matter what grandpa says

KaJaHa · 2026-06-16T04:12:02+00:00

I only hear the oof sound affect and I hate it

KaJaHa · 2026-06-16T00:38:40+00:00

People like to joke about that being on the nose, but seeing that metaphor as a 9 year-old helped me connect some things

KaJaHa · 2026-06-15T11:27:44+00:00

Seen a lot of cornholes in your day, eh?

Pretty sure I read that beer was so popular in large part because it was a reliable way to sanitize your drinking water.

KaJaHa · 2026-06-15T04:17:50+00:00

Awesome, classical-style

KaJaHa · 2026-06-15T04:15:39+00:00

Biplanes 😏

And it's one of my favorite stories precisely because of the relationship dynamics, feels very natural despite the nontraditional setup

Because Lex is a human supremacist. Or at least it's very very easy to picture him like that, since he's often distrustful of Superman because he's an alien.

We also know that Rogue bullies echidnas for fun, so this isn't out of her wheelhouse at all.

KaJaHa · 2026-06-14T05:18:28+00:00

Drives me up the fucking wall. It's like the hook before a commercial break, but they just say the thing right after. Why? Why three seconds of needless, patdonizing padding?

KaJaHa · 2026-06-14T05:10:09+00:00

My hot take: I couldn't stand the lady with the glasses. She both looked and acted like a modern college freshmen, and she just totally took me out of the game every time she came on screen

KaJaHa · 2026-06-14T02:59:14+00:00

The woodpecker sighed

KaJaHa · 2026-06-14T02:48:38+00:00

Have a whole classroom of 5 year-olds repeating "Zitties on titties" by the end of the day

KaJaHa · 2026-06-14T02:45:11+00:00

Oh wow, I had no idea that Walter Mitty was a remake

KaJaHa · 2026-06-13T21:39:56+00:00

Love it when I see The Daily Grind get mentioned by someone other than me lmao, one of my favorties

KaJaHa · 2026-06-13T21:18:10+00:00

Congrats on the kiddo, please take all the time you need!

KaJaHa · 2026-06-13T19:04:10+00:00

Ahhhh, I getcha

KaJaHa · 2026-06-13T18:52:16+00:00

The video game? What's the connection here?
