P: “Should they vote?”
F: “No.”
PIERS: “They should stay home?”
FUENTES: “Yeah.”
PIERS: “So you’re just a misogynistic dinosaur. Have you ever had sex?”
FUENTES: “No.”
PIERS: “Wow. Says the guy who never got laid.”
Has anyone else found it weird how little buzz there seems to be around Metroid Prime 4, being that it's a well loved (and neglected) franchise, and it dropped last week? Like, I had to actually search for it to find anyone streaming it on twitch.
If new proposals detailed in an FDA memo are put into place, experts told me it would mean the end of annual flu shots. And end of most vaccines for pregnant people. And maybe the end of updates to pneumonia vaccines. And more.
HBOMax has started showing a 'remastered' 4K Mad Men and they’ve messed things up so during Roger’s oyster vomit scene you can now see the crew men with the vomit hose on the right
coffee beer (lovely little coffeee shop/taproom on se 42nd and gladstone) posted on instagram that their patio is going away because they can’t afford $3000 in fees on top of another $3-5000 in construction costs to bring the patio up to code
(the only time it's acceptable to offer unsolicited form advice to strangers at the gym is when they are likely to kill or injure themselves if they keep doing whatever it is they are doing- at worst, this person is just wasting their time)

I think what happened is basically that a bunch of consultants misread the rightward swing among Gen Z last election as a permanent vibe shift which is why the weaseliest Dems sprinted to do podcasts with hitlerites instead of waiting three months for trump to fuck everything up like he always does
Congratulations to all the Democratic candidates who won tonight. It’s a reminder that when we come together around strong, forward-looking leaders who care about the issues that matter, we can win. We’ve still got plenty of work to do, but the future looks a little bit brighter.
