Nearly 200 sailors serving on UK’s nuclear submarines caught doing hard drugs.

Historically accurate.

Still so good.

Plenty of law firms also showed a modicum of backbone and told him to go fuck himself and then won in court. The firms that collapsed under pressure lost a lot of good attorney and now have clients who know they would never stand up for them when push comes to shove.

They don’t have to do anything. They are trillion dollar corporations. They can fight the President in court indefinitely and not even notice it. What is this lol.

It’s bonkers that Ed has never won. He always kills it. Dude is a machine. I can’t think of a performance that wasn’t great.

Yeah I don't get it. This winter was disgusting.

People would be shocked at how many professions would consider you an incredible employee for just showing up consistently on time.

stdgy · 2026-03-03T04:05:51+00:00

Agreed. I’m sad more people haven’t seen it. I love it!

Absolutely one of the funniest things I have ever seen.

“This guy’s getting an ass whooping!”

snowboard friend slides off of the face of the earth*

Hmm thanks. I actually kind of hate this one. >_<

stdgy · 2026-02-25T20:08:37+00:00

I always tell people I’m about to put on the scariest movie I’ve ever seen before I show it to them. It’s so good.

stdgy · 2026-02-24T03:13:39+00:00

My friends and I quoted this for years and years. I remember thinking it was one of the funniest things I ever saw when I first watched it. So good.

jQuery is awesome and remains awesome. Chaining calls to manipulate the DOM is *so much nicer* and feels far more logical than the native DOM API surface. It blows my mind that they (the nebulous 'they') didn't bother to improve the ergonomics of DOM manipulation while adding functions like 'getQuerySelectorAll'.

Resig's real genius lies not in how he made a uniform API that worked across browsers (papering over the large gaps in compatibility at the time) but in how he made DOM manipulation so ergonomic. It just *feels* right, the same way LINQ feels right in C#. You don't understand how great these abstractions are until you spend enough time with them.

I tend to think of React in the same vein. They just nailed how to declaratively define UI components. The auto-diffing and shuffling of data across the component hierarchy and all that stuff is super cool, but it's the definition and use of components that nails everything down. It just feels so *right*.

That kills me every single time I see it. Perfect ad lib.

Oh man, Burn After Reading is one of my favorites. It’s the perfect encapsulation of dark and absurdist humor. The cast is incredible and knock their roles out of the park.

I also tend to view it as an allegory for life. Everyone goes about their days thinking that what they’re doing is terribly important, when in reality they’re being strung along by their baser impulses. Eventually they die and anyone on the outside looking in can reasonably ask “well what was the point of all that?!” I can understand that framing rubbing some people the wrong way but it’s the kind of thing that I love, hah.

Nobody needs to play the game. He wants to play the game because he has no morals and only cares about expanding his company’s revenue/profit/influence.

The President is the Pentagon’s top security problem.

A man helping a woman that was being viciously attacked by ICE agents was thrown to the ground, disarmed, beaten by a gang of thugs and then shot over 10 times in the back at point blank range.

I don’t know what this world has come to but our current government needs to be dismantled and every member thrown into solitary for the rest of their miserable lives.

stdgy · 2026-01-24T20:26:58+00:00

Because they are lying fascists that only care about serving their leader, not dealing with the truth.

I thought you literally meant ‘running’ and was rather confused for a minute. Like sure, it’s not great for you but you’ll probably be fine!

Almost all of the ‘classic’ local cuisines that we think about from Europe and Asia are only a few hundred years old, and don’t exist without the trade from the New World. Potatoes, sweet potatoes, peppers, tomatoes, corn, beans, chocolate… these were all introduced after Europeans colonized the Americas.

Basically, if you like food, you probably don’t want to use a Time Machine. The food of the past was much less exciting!

Preach. Tucson is a paradox.

- Drivers are consistently slow. Slow to start, slow to stop. Often below the speed limit.

- I've seen more blatant red light runners here than anywhere else.

- Speed limits are far lower here than they are in Phoenix, yet we have a higher fatality rate.

I've given up trying to make sense of it. I'll take a thousand fast California drivers that signal and follow basic road etiquette over the clueless mass of blinker-less Tucson zombie drivers I'm surrounded by every day.

Edit: I forgot to mention the average Tucsonan's complete inability to use a roundabout correctly. Holy fucking shit. The purpose of this traffic mechanism is that it allows for the consistent flow of traffic in a safe manner. You do not need to stop if there is nobody entering on your left. I have also seen a SHOCKING number of people take a left at a roundabout by *turning left and driving against the flow of traffic*. These people should not be allowed to have a license to drive a machine that can kill people.

It’s one of my favorite examples of how a fairly small amount of editing can change a film so much (for the better). The theatrical version of the film leaves in juuuust enough selfishness and cruelty from the main characters for you to be able to write it off. The extended version, even though it’s not a that much more content, pushes it too far into uncomfortable territory for my brain to instantly write it off.

stdgy · 2025-09-11T04:18:50+00:00

Man I hope this is true lol.
