Loved that splatbook hell, but yeah, 5e is fast.
I bet Bari released this clip thinking it would make Pete look really good.
1/ Anyway, this reminds me of a story I read about James Mattis in Trump's first term.
During a meeting in the Situation Room, Trump angrily ordered the military to assassinate the entire government of Syria.
This reminds me of something Toni Morrison wrote.
THIS.
As someone who is 6'2", the world is not built for us, it's not great up here!
Was reminded of this comedy bit today.

IT IS SO FUCKING COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL when you're done translating this, let's talk.
was communicated to me by (the Rev'd) Mrs McMurray of C. W. Dumbar The following love story of an Odjibway girl ^ it is founded on a historical incident in the ward of Canada. In 1759 Baigwaineoshee, (the White Eagle driven by the wind,) accompanied as far as the lake of Two Mountains, a party of her tribe, who descended the Utawas to aid Gen Montcalm in the defense of Quebec. While there, she received attentions from a young Algonquin, who, however, never fully declared himself. The attachment was mutual, and continued after her return to the south, where she continued to pour out her affections in these strains, which she composed to an Indian chant and often repeated. A grand niece of hers, thus heard the song, and by [?] frequent re- petition learned it. The term Odishquagumee, meaning a man at the lake of two mountains, or as it [?] literally ? at the end of the chain of water, is the Ojibwe term for an Algonquin. Ia indenaindum - ia indenaindum! Makow we yan ninemooshain wee Odishquagumee [Ah me - ah me! when I think of him - when I bring him to mind, my sweetheart, Odishquagumee, or the Algonquin] Pah bojeaun nebe naubekonig Waube megissun nenemooshain wee Odishquagumee [As I embarked he put the white wampum around my neck, my sweet heart, Odishquagumee] Keguh wejeewin aindah nuk ke yun Neen ge- egobun, ne nenemooshai wee Odishquagumee [I ^ shall go with you, he said, to your native country - I will go with you, ^ he said, my sweet heart - Odishquagumee.]
Nia !nin denau dush, wassahwud gushuh Aindunukkeyaum ke y au neememooshain wee Odishquagummee [Oh, I said to him - it is far away - my native country, my sweetheart, Odishquagumee.] Kai aubik oween, ain aube aunin Kewe naube, ne nemooshai wee Odishquag ummee. [When I [would] looked back again, he would still be looking after me, my sweetheart, Odishquagumee] Apee nay we ne nebow wisheban Aung wash agushing, ne nemooshai wee Odishquagumee [^When he was still standing on a fallen tree, that laid in ^ that had fallen the water, my sweetheart, Odishquagumee] Nyau indenain dum - nyau indenaindum! Makow we yan nin de nain dum we Odishquagumee, [Alas! alas! when I think of him - when I [bring his image to mind] think of him - my sweetheart - Odishquagumee.]
!!! Just found this transcription and translation of a love song by an Ojibwe woman who fell in love with an Algonquin man while traveling near Deux-Montagnes, QC in 1759 during the 7 Years War. I can't quite interpret her name, it looks like Baigwaineoshee "The White Eagle Driven by the Wind"
WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT????? OMG!!!!!!!
Running for Congress on a platform of sneaking into Polymarket HQ and unplugging all their stuff. Overflow crowds at a local Knights of Columbus hall roar with delight as I promise to pour Florida's Natural Grapefruit Juice (with pulp) into the USB-C port of every computer in the damn place.

Congratulations, WaPo, you did it, you published the worst take
I just looked at my Grand View list alone and it's... too many. I know this feeling.

Holy shit
Love this idea.
It's just absolutely gobsmacking. Can you imagine any other president talking about this subject so casually? And if he actually means thisβif this isn't just typical lack of control over his mouth, further addled by dementiaβhow GROSSLY irresponsible that his administration is not preparing people.
There was MUCH less evidence for antisemitism from Mamdani than there is from Platner, but the fact that some Jews had concerns led Mamdani to do lots of Jewish outrage, meet with Jews, go to synagogues, and such. Platner is notably not doing that.

Donβt let the door hit you on the way out, Kristi Noem.
Folks will be - legitimately - furious with the Ds that voted no (leadership whipped hard for yes), but I think it is worth looking on the other hand: 98% of House Democrats (and 1% of House Republicans) just voted to try to block the president from waging war on Iran.
Iran! The Great Evil!
Norman Rockwell's "Freedom of Speech" painting.
"Arrow" with Stephen Amell was good, actually. It was FUN watching the show let loose and embrace its comic-book origins, taking it from a "realistic" drama to Green Arrow killing god. I liked the performances. I even liked the romance! And Manu Bennett will always be my #Deathstroke.
Hamlet, Midsummer Night's Dream, Macbeth. Depends on the day and my mood which is my favorite, but it is those three.
you need to understand that Platner is not just a candidate , he is a canary in the coalmine to a certain kind of man that the world has not changed and they still can get plush gigs and pole position in society and life with zero qualification and even less aptitude for the work .

Full book jacket just dropped, and we're pretty happy with it. Huge thanks to @cecilefromont.bsky.social, @soccerpolitics.bsky.social, Alice, and AndrΓ©s for your generous words! #earlymodern #BeyondTheOcean global.oup.com/academic/pro...
The anti-ICE charge being led in no small part by local-level religious figures who actually read the Bible is quite the twist.
I'm so, so, so very sorry.
