Isn’t much of the power of the Maiar in diplomacy and setting events in motion? Gandalf was as much of an interloper and manipulator as he was anything else, and his hiring Bilbo as a thief was the penultimate piece of his mission, as inadvertent as I’m not entirely sure it was. Right? No, really, I’m kinda asking, I don’t know for sure.

Beginning-earth and End-earth

Guess where we are

Boom! Mic drop! Stephen King EVISCERATES loser Elon in this EPIC post on X Formerly Known As Twitter!

[gif of that person clapping, you should know which one, everyone posted it endlessly every time Chrissy Teigen or those Krassenstein fucks threw some meaningless shade] hats off to this brave hashtag Resister for doing something that everyone should have fucking done three years ago at the very latest

I’m done, fuck everything, fuck everyone

The emoji was standing in for the “A” for “ackshully”

Yeah, I suppose the obvious stuff, sure

Guess I’m just rankled by seeing so many people making baseless claims and then telling everyone to figure it out themselves when they get called out on it, and it’s not the same as this.

Hidden panel: guy on left saying “google it yourself, don’t expect me to have to teach you anything”

Why should anyone ever have to substantiate their claims???

When I was little, I mixed up the words “president” and “Reagan”, thinking the latter was the title. I felt sorta vindicated with he hero worship the man got in the neocon and tea party years.

But now, even though it should be an epithet akin to “Benedict Arnold” or “Quisling”, I would not be surprised if “Trump” became a sort of title similar to “Caesar” and its variants.

A REAL man uses MOLLE, large tactical rucksacks with PALS loops in place to attach any extra bags

Urban camo or black only, please, with flag patches affixed to every possible velcro surface

Adios and adieu also both refer to god; I’m sure other Romance languages say goodbye similarly but I don’t know Italian or Romanian or whatever

Hot dog balls, or hot dog balls? Much like the Oxford comma, emphasis can make a difference! Next lesson, we’ll talk about hyphenation!

Also, “Febuary“

Doesn’t work if, like in my line of work, you have to cite specific locations in each paper for data verification. Sci-hub is your friend, when it works

Watch this live version of Silver Springs; it’s like the wounds are still fresh even two decades later

Pizza Hut logos were strewn throughout at least the first level; reading up on it, these were added to the NES port and were not present in the original arcade game.

Ever play the TMNT arcade game or its NES port?

He’s one of those kooks who drank colloidal silver and developed argyria

Prob. big into Ron Paul and chiropractic

Absence of an inner monologue does not mean that there is no thought process. I’ve done just fine without one myself. Can’t speak to whatever is plaguing the fundamentalists apart from indoctrination and being steeped in an oppressive culture that’s been fostered over generations.

Give it a few years, they’ll be picking it up in middle school at least

My daughter has been scoring very high in math this year in fifth grade so they wanted to give her more advanced stuff to do, like moving into basic statistics. She isn’t having any of it though, she hates math and gets terrible anxiety from it. She just wants to sculpt and make puppets instead. Can’t say I blame her, I was the same way.

…yet I’d cherish a job where I’d just spend all day futzing around in R

The Onion’s TED parodies capture this dumb shit perfectly

Only if they’re not trained assassins, that was the issue, wasn’t it?
