Some notes:

  • not very mobile friendly, but definitely worth checking out on a larger screen
  • you can right-click to flag squares with 1-10 (plus "X" for more powerful foes)
  • the book icon shows a live-updating list of undefeated monsters
  • if you're feeling frustrated, study the game board after a loss -- there are helpful patterns to glean

Yeah, if you do the Connections Bot, at the end it links to the NYT comments, and each one has its own themed image.

What a condescending way to make your point. Of course terrorism doesn't belong to one ideology.

I was talking about vehicle ramming attacks specifically, because the deadliest incidents have been Islamist extremists targeting crowded venues in Europe, including the Bastille Day attack on the promenade in Nice and the 2016 attack on another Christmas market in Berlin (which this attack was clearly imitating). I just find it weird that a right-wing anti-immigrant Islamophobe would do a copycat attack like that -- it's like a left-wing Israeli protesting the war in Gaza by suicide-bombing Palestinians in Ramallah.

Why would an Islamophobic, anti-immigration Saudi launch a vehicle attack associated with jihadist terrorism on a German Christmas market? Bizarre.

Scott is a bag of shit, but the nominee for SoS is Florida's other senator Marco Rubio (who is also a bag of shit).

Not exactly an iconic line, but I love the delivery:

"Have you heard of the Monks of Deshuba?"

Fry: "I've... not heard of them."

Futurama's great for nerdy science gags, social satire, and pop culture spoofs, but its best jokes are always uniquely stupid twists of language like this.

Maybe sticky one early announcement and then another one right before it starts?

Democratic presidents since LBJ:

  • Jimmy Carter
  • Bill Clinton
  • Barack Obama

Which ones had a bigger record of progressive economic accomplishments than Biden? Closest one is Obama, but his Recovery Act was less than half the size of Biden's Rescue/Infra/IRA/CHIPS packages. Biden was also more strongly pro-union and pro-regulation, and accomplished his many wins in half the time and with far narrower majorities in both houses.
