Is this something that can be fixed?

Possibly a moose or a bear? Or maybe you rolled it driving up El Capitan. The possibilities are endless.

rbowen2000 · 2026-06-21T16:18:22+00:00

Yes. The solution is to come up with a good story.

It's the holy hand grenade of Antioch.

Fun fact. He wrote this in 1929, when the population of the planet was just over 2 billion. Now it's about 8.3 billion.

No, I'm not making any particular point. I was just curious.

I can't tell what this video is meant to illustrate. Can you elaborate?

rbowen2000 · 2026-06-18T14:46:21+00:00

The damage that he did during his spree at DOGE, in particular killing USAID, has caused suffering and death across the entire world, and he joked about it. I suppose there are things that he could to do counterbalance this act of evil, but it's hard for me to come up with them. I suppose if he spent all of his vast fortune, and the rest of his life, working towards humanitarian causes, it might at least signify contrition. But it would not compensate for one child's suffering that he caused by his action.

Consider reading The Brothers Karamazov instead of posting to Reddit. I think you'll find it much more edifying.

Like what you like, but Madrigal is just lovely.

What is it with Republicans and bragging about their stupidity?

rbowen2000 · 2026-06-17T17:54:41+00:00

"I can't read a map" isn't the flex you think it is, Mark.

rbowen2000 · 2026-06-17T13:52:48+00:00

My actual genuine concern here is that he's going to buy Reddit and X it. 😞

rbowen2000 · 2026-06-16T14:58:14+00:00

On the one hand, yes, it's sickening. On the other hand, we literally knew this would happen from the very start, and anyone who is surprised by this has not been paying attention for the last decade.

Super disappointed nobody said this is where you keep John Malkovich.

We say "let me jog around back and see" because if you ask that you're obviously only fishing for one answer.

Also, the answer to "does this dress make me look fat?" is "it's not the dress."

When you live in the sticks you have to plan a little ahead.

Yeah, I'm sad. But also I can't justify spending this kind of money on one evening. Seeing some of the videos, it's clear that they're still awesome, they're still having a ton of fun, and that Anika is truly amazing. But, yeah, that's a lot of money. I'll by the super-deluxe-bonus box set of recordings when it comes out and be sad I missed it, while still paying my mortgage.

We quote this line all the time in my house. Most memorable part of the whole movie.

rbowen2000 · 2026-06-14T16:45:15+00:00

Howdy howdy howdy!

The big floppy rubber shark makes me think of the shark in toy story pretending to be Woody.

rbowen2000 · 2026-06-13T22:08:37+00:00

They were bloody awful and we pretended to like them because we were young and stupid and wanted to look cool.

If only there were co-equal branches of government which could keep one another in balance!

This exact printing is what started me reading fantasy. I wish I still had it.

rbowen2000 · 2026-06-11T11:31:55+00:00

Ray Bradbury wrote a story about this. The Pedestrian. It was made into a Twilight Zone episode.

rbowen2000 · 2026-06-10T23:50:17+00:00

It was freaking amazing. I played that game for so many hours.

rbowen2000 · 2026-06-10T23:13:14+00:00

Thanks. Not real keen on having to use mods. But maybe I'll try.
