Top Gun

That's really cool, but who let the Pokemon nerd name the project?

Dude can't even get past Piglet, Christopher Robin would fucking murder him.

Thanks, I hate it!

At least they could throw some grass on there.

Take a good look at this table. They even provide multiple indices so you exclude any that you feel are evil Western bias. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_freedom_indices#Annual_assessments

Well that looks goddamn adorable.

Imagine being this delusional.

It's kind of lame that we're getting a rerun plunked in the middle, but it's pretty obviously a warm-up for one of those new projects, whatever they wind up being. Plus...it's FLCL. I've seen it easily over two dozen times, I can quote almost every line, and I'll be there again quoting every line along with it.

You couldn't pay me enough to make an account, so bye Felicia I guess.

"You got that Botox!" "It's true! But I still won three Purple Hearts!" Still lives rent-free in my brain.

Quagmire, somewhere: "Heh, heh, alllll riiiiight."

We've been stuck in an off-and-on pop-up thunderstorm loop for at least 24 hours now. There was theoretically a decent severe threat last night, but they've all been garden-variety summer thunderstorms. Nothing all that remarkable, but they did weird me out when I was brain-deep in Tears of the Kingdom last night. "What the hell, I'm in a cave, why do I hear thunder--oh wait that's a real thing that's happening."

The Poles love how our shit stinks apparently.

Okay the burro joke got me.

Prigozhin:

Man, if this season ends with a wet fart I totally want my money back.

Boob clouds! (No literally, they're called "mammatus.") I've been watching entirely too many Reed Timmer streams recently. It's been one hell of an active season.

Want them to die? No. Something something read obituaries with great interest? Sure.

The entire planet needs some seriously better taste.

We went a good 4 or 5 weeks without any real rain to speak of. (In fact, Philly had the driest May ever recorded.) We never got to full-on drought, but those are the sorts of brown lawns I'm used to seeing mid-July, not mid-May. Then there were those few crazy Canadian smoke days on top of it. At least we've had a few good rain events over the past couple of weeks.

I'm not sure if I ever interacted with her on the ASMB, but from hearing everyone talk I really wish I had. Rest in peace.

Hey, Shenmue was legitimately fun.
