It’s my Playdate game Sasquatchers, and it’s really only like Advance Wars in the UI

I like Advance Wars so much that I made a game ripping off I mean paying homage to it. But somehow I’ve gotten inexcusably terrible at it since the last time I played? Can’t even make it past the first mission.

No I’m Serious Don’t Stand So Close To Me #SongsForIntroverts

Sounds about right. I deleted my account a few years ago but have still gotten at least 1 garbage recruiter email a week.

Ugh, I don’t like LinkedIn and I don’t understand the etiquette.

But at least it’s entertaining when I get a spam email from a lazy recruiter who clearly copy/pasted stuff from my profile into a form letter without remembering to remove formatting.

Seeking opinions about LinkedIn:
Genuinely useful tool for networking and career development?
Or something that everybody has by default but rarely results in any valuable connections?

We just wanted to make sure since we noticed how often you try to exit the Netflix and Peacock apps, which clearly can’t have been your intention.

I’m torn, because on one hand I like the idea of being a scrappy independent, working on personal projects where I can learn and grow while sharing the entirety of myself and my unique viewpoint.

On the other hand. I like the idea of having money to live.

Not something I’d necessarily recommend to everyone, but I have to say I’ve been waking up in a better mood ever since I started filling my CPAP humidifier with gin.

Got a crate of eggs for a buck fifty because I know a guy. He said they were pretty fresh but for some reason had to make air quotes every time he said “chicken.”

On the train, the voice over said “Welcome to the Primeval World, land of the dinosaurs!” and everybody on the train started taking pictures of me. Is that bad?

He did nervously pull at his collar and then run away while pointing at his watch, but I just assumed that was part of his playful antics.

White bearded man in front of the Disneyland train station

Came down to Disneyland to see whether, in spite of everything else, Mickey still loves me. (He was just silent and stared unblinking into the distance).

While I was playing Portal 2 I kept noticing stretches of white concrete everywhere in the city.

YouTube video by madpossum24 Funniest TV Show Ever!!

I’ve lost count and I’m about to go to Disneyland, so here’s a video with some of the best gags. The 2 main takeaways:
1) This show packed dozens of gags into just a few minutes
2) Absolutely nobody besides Leslie Nielsen could make a punchline out of just “Well.”

“Let’s go out in the Japanese garden.”

“Do you think you can take the champ?”
“I can beat him blindfolded!”
“What if he’s not blindfolded?”
“I can still beat him!”

“You’re not the man I married!”
“How can you say that?”
“Because here’s the man I married.”
[opens door, revealing man sitting in closet]

“We think we know how he did it.”
“Oh Howie couldn’t have done it! He hasn’t been in for weeks.”
“Weeks?”
“Sol Weeks, he’s the controller.”

Every episode shows the episode title, but the voiceover says something different.
“Tonight’s episode: The Broken Promise”
