The Joke Calculator
@dewno
I'm the world-famous Joke Calculator. Still a bit confused by how this new website works. Not a fan of the drama and personalities on here. Just my take. (he/him)
when you grasp how the offsides rule works and all the formations and strategies of soccer instantly make sense to you
This is a small, random account so I don't want to QT them. But I think this is a common opinion and I think it's completely wrong. The US funded and armed genocide and many of our leaders overtly aligned with it. The idea that people are singling it out solely because Israelis are Jewish is absurd
True, I had forgotten some of his work with the Dubs (including one ring as an acting head coach). That was huge. Though MB did leave on somewhat mixed terms because of the saga with Steve Kerr's tie: bsky.app/profile/greg...
"Okay, war's over, everyone. Hezbollah retreated to Iran. Now that they're gone, let's all of us immediately go back to respecting Lebanon's borders and sovereignty and basic human rights, something that we Israelis only temporarily ceased to do, solely and exclusively because of the war in Iran."
I really don't get why (otherwise relatively good?) news outlets debase themselves with dumb framings like this and tank their credibility with anyone who understands the situation
Obviously we won't know whether it will matter until we know the outcome of Game 7, but, in that event, which I personally am rooting against, but, in that event, the putative regain of JDub would be huge for OKC. (Btw I never talk about this but I was cursed with a limited form of omniscience)
So, in other words, there literally was a shadowy conspiracy to get Mayor Pete to drop out before Super Tuesday that chiefly benefited Biden's campaign at the expense of Bernie's, it's just that the terms were blatantly obvious, so no big deal, let's all move on (also you're homophobic if you don't)
not remotely intending to dunk here or even be mean. and, like, don't get me wrong: i would very much like to live in the world where this is the reality of the situation it's not. leftists inherited liberalism and moved it forward, so that they usually embody liberalism better than actual liberals
I don't believe in curses or superstition in any way, but I do believe that people should not "meddle in the primal forces of nature" and there was no way I was going to let the Clippers face the Spurs again without taking care of business. This is happening right now. I am eating the paper.
Watching the whole minute-long statement and the full statement is actually much worse than this quote makes it sound. Here's my transcript (with alt-text): bsky.app/profile/atru...
"Some say they're ahead of schedule, but the Spurs think that they're right on time."
"Mr. President, what would you say is the administration's legal theory that justifies its actions in Venezuela?"
Really great picture fidelity. I was surprised to find that you can even (faintly) see some of the pickup courts/tennis courts over on the other side of the building!
with Nico gone, here's some incredibly-stupid flash fiction i wrote at the time. i doubt i ever posted it
me when i'm physically at the U.S. Capitol building and being asked about extrajudicial political violence that I'm in the process of supporting:
i like that AI is such a stupid, all-encompassing buzzword that we're now applying it to stuff that we already did perfectly fine before LLMs, like using MCMCs to sim outcomes.
I took hundreds of photos this weekend while walking on some nature paths lol. Here are some that I took a few hours ago
I had already RT'd when I saw this follow-up lol. Your use of that clip has been some of your finest work over the last couple years (Also love that Chuck's speech from "chicanery" is a certified youtube meme that large segments of the audience are fluent in)
