There's the fanfic called the Methods of Rationality, which ends with him actually setting the stage for global changes for humanity as a whole, because he realizes that magic can just make everything better for everyone for basically free. It also starts and ends the entire story in year 1, which is funny to think about.
Arigato, Obama-san.
The way she says HaaaaaAAAAaaat! is my favorite part.
"What, like for a plane to get out of the way for a clear picture? Feels like a long time f- *scrolls down*-holy shit that's an amazing shot, and I'm stupid as hell."
He should've had Sherman finish the job.
Zapp could at least speak coherently most of the time.
Well this had me smiling the whole video. Love the energy.
I love the USCSB channel, but fuckin' hell if it's not maddening when it's inevitably "we determined the cause to be the lack of safety measures and maintenance in an attempt to cut costs" 99.9% of the time, and the ending tends to be just "we recommend companies do X to help prevent future incidents" when we know damn well they won't. Once in a while it'll be a true freak accident of a bunch of extremely unlikely things causing an incident, but mostly it's cheap assholes being cheap assholes.
This is the Bad Place, after all.
#79 and just like that I get ripped from the current existential helldread of life and momentarily put back into childhood wonder. I loved every single one of those shows. Also the second I read it, the Get A Clue song immediately played in my head. I haven't even thought about that movie in...oh, 20 years. Ow.
DUDUDUDUDU
"That was lit the whole time?!" "THE WHOLE TIME, BABY!"
Yep, for me if the first breath doesn't work, the second try does. Never had them last past it. Also made one of my friends angry at himself because he'd tried many ways to get rid of them in the past, and then I just randomly mentioned how I do it once while he got them when we were talking, and it instantly worked for him.
Glory be to The Lab, proprietors of Science and Culture.

#7 "We've had a great year, haven't we?"
I grew up mostly at the end of the 90s and through the early 00s, but damn if these don't bring back memories. A simpler time, back when I wasn't aware of The Horrors, blissfully ignorant. #2 specifically hits, the rug and furniture in general, eating at a low table in the living room, giant spotlight from the camera flash that's in so many pictures...
I feel like I've said this a thousand times since January (however many years ago that was), but it's legitimately impressive at how literally every single day is somehow worse than the one before it. Like, yes, this is some of the most awful news I've seen, but not to worry, tomorrow will be worse. Because not only do you have the previous horrors still active, but also somehow just an infinite constant influx of new, different horrors. Sometimes you get previous horror 2: electric boogaloo.
I still wouldn't expect him to know what it is, because he tends to spout out shit that other, smarter people in his circle have said. It's like when you see or hear a new word and then you start seeing it "more" shortly after, but only because you're paying attention now. He'll hear some fancy new word, then use it constantly for a week before moving on to something else.
As an (unfortunate) resident of the second option: *continues screaming into the void*
#4 I either get doted on by the most grandmothery of kind Pokemon, or get "as god as my witness he is broken in half" by the psychic witch thing? Seems like a win/win to me.
Yep. Originally just thought it was cool as hell, but eventually some years later someone brought up weird hear me outs and Ramiel was brought up. Gave it a minute of thought and went "...you know what? Yes."
#5 Ramiel is probably my "wildest" hear me out. What? I know what I like, and I like the flying murder geometry. The laser blasts straight up melting through entire hills? Very attractive.
Priscilla is also super fuzzy and looks comfy to hug.
I know it's GoT, but for some reason it gives me The Hu vibes.
I think it's done in groups rather than on an individual level, specifically whoever gave orange the most money that week. If it hasn't changed by the next week, it defaults to Epstein.
The bigger the hat, the cuter the witch.
Crowd Control is always a good time. Sometimes it's an unplayable horrific mess, sometimes you get insane skips or extremely helpful late game items/abilities, but it's always funny.
Walk of Shame? No, the stagger of happy exhaustion.
#6 hits just right for me. I loved the silly shit they used to wrap electronics in. That see-through, colored plastic on the Gameboy systems and Macs? Great stuff. Does the giant egg TV stand take up a crazy amount of space? Yes, but it's way cooler than yet another giant rectangle. Also the restaurants that went from being unique to boring grey tone colors and sharp edges make me sad. I fully understand that it was my childhood and I am biased, but I don't care: the Matrix was right, we peaked.
