@autosport So the speeding penalties aren’t for actually speeding, which isn’t allowed for safety reasons, but for something unrelated which has nothing tp do with safety? Seems strange

[Alex @Alex70248]

@LostMemeArchive This was the peak of humanity tbh. Been mostly downhill since

@chrisboettcher9 Wdym “zero tolerance?” Who told you your tolerance of what another dad does on their vacation is relevant in the first place?

[Alex @Alex70248]

@buccocapital The thing that drives me crazy is they don’t seem to realize 1. how obvious it is that it’s AI slop and 2. how much of a pain it is for other people to read through their long winded AI slop

[Alex @Alex70248]

@cyanopsis It’s not easy but it’s certainly very straightforward and possible

[Alex @Alex70248]

@switchstock lol. lmao even

[Alex @Alex70248]

@PokemonRestocks they look like TCG Pocket cards lol

As a dog owner and dog lover, I fully support a huge crackdown on dog owner behavior and dog ownership in general. Most dogs live unfulfilling and substandard lives because the owners suck, and then lots of them end up in shelters. The whole situation is out of control

[tate @octatate]

something needs to be done about dog culture WHY is your dog in chipotle?

(Disclaimer: AI slop)

So many commons have incredible artwork but get overlooked. Look what you get if something like this Nidoran becomes an IR

[kestryl @angela_luver]

@CardGameNomad @chrominius agreed! one of my favourite arts ever is the nidoran from steam seige. its on the front page of my personal collection

[Alex @Alex70248]

@anishmoonka Sad that most dog owners think they can feed their dogs dry kibble for every meal and expect them to thrive

[Alex @Alex70248]

@qarnes Ah 180 water

@JohnnyCrambo Unique cards always

NYC weather is cool because on the Saturdays it isn’t raining we get constant 100 mph winds

[signüll @signulll]

the blue origin explosion briefly forces people to remember what the baseline actually is.

rockets aren’t supposed to feel like commercial aviation.

they feel that way because spacex spent years turning an extraordinary event into an ordinary one.

[Alex @Alex70248]

This F1 coverage is insanely bad. They either don’t show replays at all or show them at the worst possible times. Amateurish

NYC summers hate your weekends.

I analyzed 3 years of Central Park rain data to see if the feeling was real.

It was.

27 of 38 summer weekends had measurable rain.

That’s 71%.

Friday was the rainiest day of the week, with rain on 43.6% of summer Fridays. Basically worse than a coin flip for your evening plans.

Sunday had the highest rainfall volume of any day, averaging 0.17 inches. It may not rain every Sunday, but when it does, it commits.

Thursday was objectively the best day to be outside in NYC: lowest precipitation, clearest skies, least weekend-related misery.

The wildest stat:

70.8% of rainy Sundays were preceded by a gross Friday or Saturday.

The weekend basically telegraphs its own downfall.

I built a full dashboard using NWS Central Park data with every weekend tracked and every raindrop counted:

@scumbreonpk yeah I don't like how fake they feel. that and the lack of a guaranteed hit in each box, much better to spend a bit more and buy Japanese

[Alex @Alex70248]

@RippinandSippin I feel that way about most sets lately tbh. Thankfully the IRs are cheap enough to just buy

[Alex @Alex70248]

@Pokemon__drama @CharizardEats Damn I got on chat and they said the price shown in the queue was incorrect and $21.50 is accurate, so I canceled my order

[Alex @Alex70248]

@LordCharizard33 so bad. it should be <$10 in which case I'll buy 100 of them just to take one for the team
