@playstation.com it’s consumer hostile to end chat and send decisions from no-reply email, leaving me with no recourse on a refund request for a poor game. if it was a disc, I could return to store. I’m screwed with a digital game. if I dispute, you’ll suspend my account. this should be illegal.

success! pre-order for switch 2 made at gamestop store. after last night’s target disaster (🖕btw) and gamestop site crashing immediately this AM, i went to the store. sign said they had 40 and i was 25th in line!

switch 2 going back up for preorder on 4/24. they aren’t charging the price for it but are for the accessories. damn controllers will be $95!!!!

could’ve sworn someone promised tariffs wouldn’t impact consumers. huh. did they <gasp> lie?

all i can really say at this point about FC Dallas, is we knew what we were in for this season.

be sure to watch the FCD match tonight. you wouldn’t want ( •_•) ( •_•)>⌐■-■ (⌐■_■) passover jesus coming back

so this is all supposed to bolster US economy, but orange man’s bilionaire buddies won’t pay livable wages to workers here, so americans don’t want those jobs and they go to the illegal immigrants who they are now deporting, and their answer is to expand child labor. do i have that right?

mine pulled the rug out of N TX altogether. the new one I have is $1000 more per year and wind/hail is 2% deductible.

A tricky thing about modern society is that no one has any idea when they don’t die.

Like, the number of lives saved by controlling air pollution in America is probably over 200,000 per year, but the number of people who think their life was saved by controlling air pollution is zero.

Petitioning the King Trump believes crashing the economy is worth it if he can extract what he needs from the rest of the world.

"So Trump will impose these tariffs and sit back and wait for other world leaders to petition the king with their offerings that will ultimately expand his own power, all the while we are the collateral damage. We all get thrown under the bus; 350 million people suffer so that one man can benefit."

take your ties on the road, but leaving farrington out until stoppage time wasting sub, and leaving in chu that long when he’s consistently killing the attack is brain worm decision making.

think i’ve watched at least 8 hours of reef tank how-tos today. taken lots of notes. crazy how much time goes by when you get lost on youtube.

I call on every business to list the pre-tariff selling price of their product, and the increase in price due to tariffs (call it "the Trump tax") to reach the final sales price. Consumers need to know why they're paying what they're paying.

really feeling liberated!

@openvibe.social please bring back ability to scroll on the sides of the screen on ipad, not just where the timeline is in the center. 🙏

well you know, you gotta get rid of the sources of mind control the government uses. 🙄

$30 well spent at calloways. i like to look at their expensive arrangements then just go find similar flowers to make it myself for fraction of the cost.

going to take a few days to clear up. and about a month or so to setup the good bacteria nitrogen cycle.

and now we wait patiently!

mlb.tv is broken on opening day

pretty clear the livestream was meant to be kept in the background, music cue means come back and pay attention. it was fun! i’m thinking 0% chance the x-men of that multiverse survives, maybe even just be cameo level appearances.

i don’t know at what point in time it won’t blow my mind that i used to be able to leave for work about now and it would be the normal 25 min but now it’s consistently at least 40 min.

is there a way for the app to remember the setting for what service(s) we want to post to, instead of having to toggle them every time?

seems we’re in for another season of missing out on the rain. don’t want the hail but somehow we just never even manage to get a single drop from the sky…

It's critical for everyone to remember what an Executive Order is. It is the President communicating orders to members of the executive branch. Policies to pursue, actions to take, etc. They are not laws. They are not close to being laws. They are formalized memos to employees. That's all.

USMNT has precious few opportunities to figure this out before we go out in group stage at the same stadium as the host country of the world cup.

goodbye freshwater aquarium, 2020-2025. wen through a few iterations, had some challenges, but really enjoyed it. something new this way comes!

after weeks of consideration and research and chatting with @omenq.net about it, i’m going to swap out the freshwater aquarium i’ve had for 5 years and start a saltwater one. plan is a 47G all-in-one. going to take my time, 6-12 months to get it up to par. (pun intended?)

democrat agenda blocked: ‘oh no what can we do? please donate and vote for us!’

republican agenda blocked: ‘fine we’ll just remove the obstacle! a law… ignore it. a judge… impeach them. oversight/agency… executive order to dismantle. budget… take away beneficial services.’

@openvibe.social hi guys! timeline save is fantastic thank you! i’m regularly reading posts again! couple questions… it doesn’t seem like share button is doing anything? and my muted words aren’t being honored in the app (but are on bluesky)?
