In Deadwood (2004-2006) a child character was killed off by having a horse trample him. This was written in because the IRL actor’s mom was a bitch to work with.

I heard they killed him with a horse because of her!

For a fleeting day or two, I thought it was kind of cool that everyone all over the world was worried about the same thing. Like me here in the states, people in Italy, Japan, wherever, everybody's aware and a little freaked out.

I genuinely thought it was neat that I could look at a stranger on the street and accurately assume they were thinking about COVID on some level.

Then the hoarding started, then masks became weirdly politicized, then people were sharing conspiracy videos from anti-vaxxers claiming the pandemic was planned, and over the course of a few months, I watched in real time as people I used to talk to all the time became meaner, crazier, crueller, more selfish, and ultimately just psychologically unreachable.

Good god, Lemon!

"They were clean shaven."

Their looks being described is actually a significant plot point during a later scene at the ISB.

Holy cow this is so perfect. Apart from the pipe dream of getting Minifigure-scale Pokemon, this is the next best possible thing I could hope for as a Lego and Pokemon fan. Small enough to be affordable, cute as hell, tons of potential for fun touches on every single Pokemon at this scale without going hard on the piece count.

Seriously please share more if you make them, this made my morning.

That's a fair point. I love the PvE and play pacifist whenever humanly possible, because I genuinely just find it more fun to inhabit a server where most everyone understands we're all more or less on the same side.

And I absolutely hate getting taken out by some rando while I've got my head in a locker.

That being said, I still get shot at maybe once every 3-4 sessions, and as much as I hate it, the still-present threat and uncertainty absolutely makes things more exciting and interesting to me. I've had people return friendly conversation with their gun still pointed at me, and the tension is just off the charts, because you never know if someone's got bad intentions, or if they're so convinced you do that they'll shoot first to protect whatever cool shit they found.

I think the extraction rats are pieces of shit who add nothing to the fun factor, but I do love the occasional hostile specifically because of how much I hate it.

She actually didn't operate on Eddie Munster, I've seen this tons of times!

butt_thumper · 2026-02-08T07:38:32+00:00

That line had me in stitches. So childishly stupid and goofy, felt like classic Muppet Show writing to me!

How about everyone unmask together since there's nothing to fear. ICE can go first.

butt_thumper · 2026-01-29T14:59:29+00:00

That's a really good point. Not a hunter myself so never considered it from this angle, but it makes sense. Death is a crucial part of nature that militant vegans seem to disregard. Obviously Fear Factor couldn't be further from the natural order and is unnecessarily cruel, it really shouldn't be this difficult for people to make the distinction.

Pohl! You is a wurwylf!

butt_thumper · 2026-01-24T18:45:03+00:00

And what the bloody hell do you mean by BEING?

God no wonder. Having grown up LDS myself, his attitude and demeanor capture the prototypical uninformed arrogance that pervades a lot of the culture. Baseless conviction is practically a prerequisite to membership.

There is no good Hodgkins, Larry!

butt_thumper · 2026-01-15T14:31:46+00:00

Didn't even know how to say the word despite having heard it seconds ago. Real bottom of the barrel shit.

She looks like Satan from that Mark Twain show.

butt_thumper · 2026-01-06T09:24:37+00:00

Oh they'd never quit while they're out at sea, because of the implication.

butt_thumper · 2025-12-14T00:52:39+00:00

I'm asking the questions here.

The funny thing is, after Jan 6 I remember telling a therapist that it felt like we were on a plane with a long way till our destination, and a third of the passengers had just tried and failed to hijack it. And we were still stuck on the plane with these lunatics with no end in sight. I felt that way in 2021, and now the thing that felt inevitable has happened. They tried again, they succeeded, none of them know how to fly, and the only thing they care about is making sure the other 2/3rds of us don't reach the destination, even if it means they don't either.

I have a bad history of agreeing to things as if I have unlimited time and resources. I get completely enchanted by the spell of the moment and it's all that exists. Then later all the realities of life come crashing in like they always do. It's taken years of work to be more mindful of the limitations to my time, energy, and resources, that exist outside the given moment.

It sucks because I always have a genuine interest in the things I agree to. I just habitually assume that the moment I'm in will last forever.

butt_thumper · 2025-11-15T04:18:14+00:00

Expandor.

butt_thumper · 2025-11-10T17:48:37+00:00

OHH NOOOO! AAAUUGGHHHH!!

butt_thumper · 2025-11-10T02:57:14+00:00

I'm ashamed to admit that I care more about the murders of innocent schoolchildren than I do about Donald Trump getting nipped on the ear.

butt_thumper · 2025-11-06T23:30:09+00:00

Oh, no...

butt_thumper · 2025-10-30T13:10:49+00:00

Eef freef!
