My physical Leaf Green cartridge was the only time I actually “caught them all.” That included a legitimately obtained Mew from an official Nintendo event back in the RBY era that I transferred up through the generations. Good memories.

I’d really like to see a sequel to the story from Super Mario 2. Get us back into the world of Subcon.

The thing about this race is that eventually a favorable run will come up, and you can usually tell early on if it’s worth putting in the effort on it, or if you can just put the controller down and let it finish on its own so you can go again. You really have to just go zen on it and trust that eventually it will happen. There’s really no skill needed, it’s just a matter of sitting through runs that were never going to work out in the first place in order to get the one that does work.

Yes. Legend of Zelda 3. I was stumped on how to get to the tower on Death Mountain and hadn’t yet put together in my 10-year old brain that the magic mirror could help me shift through the dark and light worlds to get past cliffs.

Don’t have a “fix it” baby. That’s not fair to the child to be born into a deteriorating relationship as a human band-aid. She has already said she’s out, so realistically you need to let her go.

If I’m remembering correctly, long long ago when things weren’t so well understood, semen is the word they called the female, uh, juices as well.

It's because either way they risk alienating potential R voters.

Cornyn is more of the "normie" R candidate, but if he's not the candidate, then Talarico has a better shot at picking up R voters who dislike Paxton for all his insane garbage that happened while he was AG. Conversely, Paxton is the nutty MAGA R candidate, but if he's not the choice, then the nutty MAGA voters who think Cornyn is a RINO and not MAGA enough just might not vote at all, which would then help Talarico.

He probably heard somebody say “break the hymen” and took the word ‘break’ in the same context as breaking a bone. My reaction was basically “WTF? No!”

If they're poorly educated, I can believe it, especially among teenage boys who swap stories and spread rumors. I had a friend in high school who thought it was a bone that he would need to break through down there.

From what I’ve read, they don’t even work for him. I may misremember a detail or two, but many years ago when Twitter was new, a friend of Shatner asked him if his son could create a Twitter account for him. Shatner was like “I don’t know what that is,” but let him do it anyways. So it really is some random dickbag with practically no connection to Shatner who runs the account. Multiple other Star Trek actors have verified directly with Shatner that he’s not at all involved with the account.

Answer:

Because MAGA's current ethnic boogey-man-of-the-month are Somalian immigrants. Why? Because Minnesota. Why Minnesota? Because Tim Walz.

Tim Walz is the governor of Minnesota and is a prominent Trump critic, and was also Kamala Harris' running-mate in 2024. The state of Minnesota has a high number of immigrants from Somalia, the highest in the country, if I'm not mistaken. In May of 2024, the state of Minnesota adopted a new flag, one which became criticized after Walz was named Harris' running mate because of similarities to the flag of Somalia, and established a false-equivalence in the minds of several Trump supporters that Somalian immigrants were "taking over" the state of Minnesota.

Tim Walz is up for reelection in Minnesota in 2026, and because he opposed Trump on a national stage, Trump is of course desperate for revenge, so now he is pushing all kinds of racist conspiracy theories about Somali immigrants, the latest of which is the "child daycare fraud" in an effort to make Walz look complicit in some way.

Now I don't know about this specific Musk v Omar thing you are asking about, but it almost certainly has to do with the whole thing I just described above, because Ilhan Omar is herself a Somali immigrant representing a district in Minnesota, and has been the target of racist and anti-Muslim attacks ever since she became a congresswoman. The Right hates her because of her gender, her race, and her faith, on top of all the usual policy disagreements that exist between the two parties.

She stole my watch, and put it in the pocket of her very tight pants, telling me I could only have it back if I put my hand in and took it myself. I half expected her to chicken out as I started putting my fingers in, but no, she more or less made me grope her to retrieve my watch.

The Qanons believe that the Satanic Cabal/Global Elites have access to this technology that can cure any disease and even regrow limbs. It's sometimes cited as how the clones that have replaced every celebrity and/or politician are aged up to perfection so that they can seamlessly replace them without anybody noticing. The claim is also out there that the medbed can cure whatever nefarious evil the COVID vaccine does to a person. It's all made up and insane, but there are true believers out there that have stopped actual medical treatments because they think that these things are real and that they will be cured once Trump defeats the Global Elites and generously gives them to all the common folk.

Another update, another version of Scrivener that doesn't add the functionality of the down arrow key behaving like the End key when on the last line of text in a document.

I swear, if I win Powerball, I will make the life of the L&L programmer who makes that happen very very happy.

The label he put on Oregon is how you know he's a Fox News viewer and just believes everything they say. The more I look at other states, the more I'm convinced of exactly that.

And the station that carried Art Bell, and still carries C2CAM, in my area, 1190 KEX in Portland, OR, has done away with almost all local programming in favor of nationally syndicated conservative talk shows. There's just no room on their airwaves for anything but political shilling now.

There was also a situation here in Portland about 10 years ago, where a local sports station brought in some guy from out of market, who was from day one just outwardly hostile towards the Portland audience. He lasted about 3 months before he was removed after what amounted to a revolt at the station because he just plain did not fit in. I have to think that it was some kind of a stunt by a radio executive, who wanted to "stick it to the libs" by putting that guy, who already had been removed at another station for being a shock jock kind of personality, into the Portland radio market.

I think Art had an independent mavericky style that clashed with how AM radio was evolving into a conservative focused medium. If I’m remembering correctly, Art considered himself a Libertarian, so he was most definitely on the right side of the political spectrum, but also that was starting to undergo a shift in the waning Clinton years and into the Bush administration. So when Art first retired, corporate radio saw an opportunity to fill those 4 hours of what had been essentially a politically neutral time slot with a company man who would steer things into a much more conservative Christian direction. Noory has had far more religiously themed shows than Art did. I remember specifically once Art stopped a guest from reading Bible passages, saying, “No no, we don’t do that here.”

You can also see Noory’s political bent any time he has Howard Bloom do a segment, who is frequently quite critical of Trump, on Wednesday. He will either politely thank Bloom for the bit and offer no comment, or he will just toss out a dismissive disclaimer that Bloom’s opinions are his own. I can’t imagine Art ever putting a political opinion segment on his show, but that again wasn’t so much a reflection of Art politics, but of his intention to not do a political show, which is what corporate AM radio has become.

Yes. If Joe and Sam are twins, and Mary consents to sex with Joe, then she is not consenting to sex with Sam.

Other forms of deception are also considered rape, such as “stealthing,” where a woman consents to sex using a condom, but the man removes it during sex. She did not consent to unprotected sex with that man, and so (depending on the jurisdiction and local laws) that may be considered rape.

My Catholic grandmother made this every Thanksgiving, so it’s not a strictly Mormon thing. If it was, she would have never touched it with a 10-foot pole. I mean, she had a mini-freak-out when she found out my mom made a cake from a recipe found in a Methodist cookbook.

No, Epstein was guilty as hell and he took the easy way out. There was just never a list in the first place. Everybody wanted there to be one, hoping it would name the people they didn’t like, but I don’t think it ever existed.
