I did not expect to love VTuber Legend as much as I have this season. I only vaugley knew about Hololive culture beforehand, but I still loved (and will love for the next couple weeks) every joke that's come out of that show.

Previously, people could vote for a new mob each year. It was constantly made fun of because either the mobs people could vote for were so tepid they didn't care or they were all so interesting people were annoyed they couldn't all be added. Couple this with people claiming that the "worst" option was picked after each vote, and that the mob vote replaced what used to be a yearly "biome vote" (which was like the mob vote, but significantly bigger in scale and much more liked by the community), and the mob vote was never especially popular (though it did help the community feel engaged with the game to a greater degree).

Nah; Fallout 3 at least starts in August.

I personally feel Ranma works better as an allegory for trans-male since that's what Ranma always identifies as, but for an anime that old it's still amazing that it exists.

"Apologies, I misspoke. If he's willing to get off on the couch."

There's not much I miss about Reddit, but one of those things is a proper community to put jokes that have been run into the ground. The unnecessary arrow is one thing, but then the second reaction image really kill the otherwise mildly amusing joke.

Before I decide... do the wolves use Windows?

He isekais before the tropes of Isekai are established (1970/80s I think), so they go completely over his head. So, for example, when the tsundere elf denies liking him, he takes it at face value and leaves rather then stay in what he believes to be hostile company.

The Supreme Court call that "compelling"

After a crushing electoral defeat in 2018, one senior opposition politician told the Financial Times how he had spent the night in a “humble home” to learn what it was like, proudly showing pictures he had taken on his mobile phone.

“After I returned to Mexico City, it struck me that perhaps my maid lived in a similar sort of home, so I showed her the photos and sure enough it turned out that her home was very similar,” he beamed.

This... this is probably the single most out-of-touch thing I'd ever rich. A rich dude took pictures of a normal house, and then bragged to his maid that he went there.

I can't decide if my disgust is greater than my amusement in knowing there's no way Russia would bother delivering those letters regardless.

Evidently, not your roommate.

Said the parents: "Over my child's dead body!"

The Libertarian mascot is a porcupine? How did I not know about this before now?

I attended BYU-I in person for three years. There was a lot of dumb s### that happened there, but I can say with confidence this wasn't one of them. To not be a buzzkill though, I'll share an actual saying that people use around campus: "BYU I do." Because like 80-90% of students there expect to be married by the time they graduate.

No pickaxe? How are you supposed to upgrade to stone now?

To save people from having to squint at the small text; top chart is measured in seconds, bottom chart is measured in days.

Another video distributed by Russian state news agency RIA showed an inscription in an unidentified book supposedly recovered in the arrest — signed in Russian with the words “signature illegible.”

This whole article is just bonkers.

Does "Lawful" apply here when they're buying politicians to change those laws for them?

So it's too much work to list the fees they're already changing people? Makes perfect sense, just like how grocery stores don't show the price of each item until you're already checking out.
