  • It [the Israeli government] cut off all commercial and humanitarian aid traffic from Israel into Gaza since Hamas launched its surprise terrorist attack on October 7 and has vowed to sever all ties with Gaza.

    Good. Then sever them already, and get the fuck out of the way.

  • I don’t even know what ISO 8601 is, but I agree with the sentiment

  • It seems weird, but makes sense. They already had the equipment to make long, thin ribbons of plastic, after all.

  • That’s surprising. Master and Commander came out in 2003, years before the first MCU film was released.

  • Saved my marriage.

    I can’t tell if this guy is great at being sarcastic and I’m too dense to appreciate it, or if he’s genuinely clueless and thinks his complex relationship problems can be saved by a messaging app.

  • Your niece will probably brag to your nephew about the cool thing that she did, and rub it in that he was too young. That’s what siblings do. This is especially true if he’s ruined things in the past, and she’s harboring some resentment, which she almost certainly is.

    I agree that it’s unfair to hold her back, but being left out and being forgotten are two very different things. Spend quality time with him, niece excluded, doing an activity that he will enjoy, or that he has chosen.

  • Abridged? That’s hours of video!

  • I don’t know who/what that is, sorry

  • Here’s the beginning of the Wikipedia article:

    Kiwi Farms, formerly known as CWCki Forums, is a web forum that facilitates the discussion and harassment of online figures and communities. Their targets are often subject to organized group trolling and stalking, as well as doxxing and real-life harassment.

    So, it’s an assholefarm.

    Although the name originated with one particular site, it looks like the name now applies to any site that serves a similar purpose. Bleah.

  • Good question. I was only talking about my own personal tastes. I don’t know what would be objectively worthy of defederation, because what you’re talking about is fine.

  • It’s okay, folks. Old white men are being well paid to discuss the problem at length, and will eat a full dinner before going to sleep in their safe, comfortable beds. Everything is normal.

  • Well, a few people have already pointed out the nastiest sounding one, so I’ll go with wolfgirl.bar

    Pretty sure I’d want eye bleach after that.

  • This bothers me on a fundamental level, and I never want to see it again, which probably means the image is doing its job… so, uh… well done?

  • A few years ago I would have said Unbreakable.

  • I read something about that a while ago. If I recall correctly, it was intended to be a franchise, but Master and Commander was so incredibly expensive that they decided against it.

  • As far as I’m concerned, being called “boy Xena” is an enormous compliment, and Sorbo is far from worthy.

  • The only thing I like that involves him is that Lucy Lawless calls him “peanut”.

  • Sometimes I wonder if horrible people can be great storytellers because their outlook on life is so different from our own. That doesn’t excuse or justify their behavior, but still, I wonder.

  • Making the reader understand nonlinear time by describing the way humans experience linear time (traveling along train tracks, at a set speed, only able to look forward) was absolutely brilliant. Hell, I still sorta remember that part and I haven’t read the book in decades.
