Got home to piles of damage. Nothing structrual, but it was full of bookcases, none of which were anchored at the time. And they couldn't reach the gas main to turn it off in case there was a leak, so we slept outside by the pool (which had the pool-cover rails ripped off and was mostly empty).

I remember laying out and listening to the sirens and watching ash falling from the sky from all the fires. And kind of gripping the patio through my sleeping bag whenever an aftershock rolled through.

My little brother wouldn't stop crying, so they gave us all the leftover cookies they give people to boost their bloodsugar after giving.

Mom went "Oh, all the traffic lights will be out. We should get home by the backrout instead of the main road." forgetting that the 'back rout' was a curvy back and forth along cliffs. So big 1980 VW van swerving around kid-sized bolders while smaller rocks kept falling down from above from aftershocks.

I was 8. My mom was doing her monthly Red Cross blood donation. The ladies had just put the needle into her arm when the shaking started. I bolted. Dodged the accordion sliding-wall that could be pulled out to divide the room and almost made it out into the parking lot before someone grabbed me. I watched the tree-line on the otherside of the lot wave up and down.

Afterwards, everyone got shoved out the door. Red Cross workers had other things to do than blood-draws.

#4 is hilarious because I remember in the 90s when it was "Only three people stay dead in comics. Uncle Ben, Jason Todd, and Bucky."

Needless to say, I've been eagerly anticipating Gritty Antihero Uncle Ben Back From the Dead for years, now.

Pretty sure the familiars you summon with the New Magic report back everything you say around them to some mysterious shadowy overlord. The demons which tempt and beckon from the corners of my eyes have gotten really weirdly specific with their temptations ever since I acquired Silvereyes Murdermitts

Who could've ever expected he'd use that ruling in this way. It's almost as if there's a reason why none of the previous sitting courts has ever made this kind of ruling before. I wonder what that reason could've possibly been

Oh no, the Reality TV star we elected president is hiring other Reality TV stars! How dare!

Once again, I am extending all of my sympathies to The Straights for this weird-ass Cold War thing they've got going on instead of relationships.

I have zero doubt that the reason they switched from complaining about "Political Correctness" to complaining about "Woke" is because 'woke' is much much easier to spell.

This is just so Elon can slowly drive down Bay Area streets and tell jokes to all the Tesla drivers who'll laugh and laugh because he's so funny and then they'll want to be his friends and no one will laugh at him or make fun of him ever again.

I 100% agree with you, but until we can get the orphan crusher shut down, it's still nice to see people doing their best to chuck orphans out of it's jaws by the dozens.

The differences between "Man on Man porn drawn by straight/bi women" and "Man on Man porn drawn by bi/gay men" are absolutely wild.

Y!Gallery's collapse was about 80% the tension between the two camps coming to a head. Those were fun times.

"Happy Holidays!" "ITS MERRY CHRISTMAS" "Alright, Merry Christmas, and I hope your Thanksgiving sucked ass and your New Years will be naught but misery."

Just overlay a map of Europe over the USA to scale. Look at where you want to go, look at where the current BS is. If you'd be willing to visit a country that close/far from a country having A Bad Time, then come on in.

We built a -third- space station, and -that- one sunk into the swamp! Then we built a fourth space station, and that caught on fire, winked out of existence in a temporal anomaly and sunk into the swamp. But the FIFTH space station! Ah!

I love keeping Lae'zel in my party just so she can drag me 24/7, but I'd go straight for Karlach.

It looks lopsided. How does it manage to look lopsided?
