Artemis: Is this funny? *wags butt in air*
Me: You think everything with butts is funny
Artemis: *beat* ...well, I made a friend at school just by telling poop jokes

@ZachWeiner @GD_Abstrakt Don Bluth worked on Fox and the Hound extensively. When Disney wouldn't let him kill off Chief during the train scene, he decided to create his own studio.

@dimension20show I really like the YouTube player over the Dropout app (sorry) but I'm curious, which one is better for you from a revenue-perspective? They're both $5, and I know YouTube must take a pretty big cut, but on the other hand, you're not paying for bandwidth

[Pharylon @Pharylon]

@samreich What's the best way to leave feedback for Dropout? And if the answer is "here" then I'd really like it if the player would play even when the phone screen is off, for when I'm just listening but not watching

Does the @dimension20show auction of Unsleeping City minis mean we're not going to get a Chapter 3 of my favorite series?

@rebeccawatson For context, that's about five times more than the flu. Although we're tracking COVID deaths a lot more than flu deaths, so the numbers are likely closer.

[Pharylon @Pharylon]

@rekhalshankar TBH, I'd still probably put the h in the wrong place

@5eMagic Pssst. Your site has a +1 Rod of the Pact Keeper as Rare instead of Uncommon :(

@inscribajournal @NateSilver538 Closing schools at the beginning made sense, but we had good evidence kids got less sick and were less likely to spread Covid fairly early on. Europe opened schools up much earlier and didn't have a pile of dead teachers

[Pharylon @Pharylon]

@J2CP1 @angrybklynmom @TheEconomist Ah yes, the old "individual responsibility" dodge for systemic problems.

[Pharylon @Pharylon]

Chronological feeds only, no algorithmic shenanigans. That would solve a lot of the problem

[Lizzie @lizzie_wwm]

@samriegel Sure I can see how Social Media could play a role on Teen Mental Health, but how the hell are you gonna regulate that shit?

[Pharylon @Pharylon]

@shweenasty I never thought of it that way

[Pharylon @Pharylon]

Agree. I literally die inside every time someone does that

[Joshua Blanchard @JTMac]

@ZachWeiner There's no denying that language changes by its use.

...BUT the way you participate in that change it is a moral choice, dangit.

If someone defends using "literally" to mean "figuratively, but emphatically" then my violence is morally justified no matter what the jury says.

@JoeTheCoolDude I know you have me blocked, but if you ever see this I want you to know that I laughed out loud for real

[Pharylon @Pharylon]

@MikeWTrapp Speaking of which, is there ever any chance of WTF 101 getting a second season?

[Pharylon @Pharylon]

@KatieMarovitch I feel like she has a certain style of acting where she is always herself, but that's not necessarily a bad thing (see: Jeff Goldblum)

[Pharylon @Pharylon]

@BrennanLM Me and another player at my table have been geeking out for a week over seeing you at the CR table

[Pharylon @Pharylon]

@ZachWeiner I don't have any advice here, except I'd like to know what comics she liked best for my 7 year old

[Pharylon @Pharylon]

@quiddie Steve dressed in the American flag, literally called himself "Captain America" and then got all surprised when beating up people in foreign countries got political

[Pharylon @Pharylon]

@JoeTheCoolDude @Chopper4Brad I like the Rams, it's a good name! The names I hate are the ones not connected to the team or city at all. Like, Charlotte has the Panthers. They just picked the last big predator name left!
