oh no this made me sad

Honestly there's a simplicity to retro games that I think is beneficial for kids.

There are zombies. There's an evil wizard. You get very buff and punch them until you become a werewolf.

I noticed and appreciated

I got my hacked 3DS out to remind myself how it worked for retro emulation and my daughter was immediately transfixed. I've never seen her be as fascinated by a game as Altered Beast.

Bear sploot, with toe beans

Bear sploot with a saucy over-the-shoulder look.

The lowest of bear sploots. Basically two dimensional.

You're never too old of a bear to get in some quality sploot time.

Spindle is a treasure

Yyyyeeaaahh on reflection I had a lot of Feelings about Alex Mack

I think the only place I've markedly gone backwards is stamina, how long I can lift and carry something for; otherwise I'm objectively fitter and stronger in basically every possible way post-transition.

Like honestly love I'm sorry your shitbag endo scared you out of doing HRT and you've decided to rationalise it as an objective moral position but leave us the fuck alone

I'm sure that her opposition to us being shackled to the pharmaceutical industry means she supports the use of DIY HRT

I'm absolutely *positive* that she doesn't also have some bizarre confected issue with the purchase of bathtub estradiol

The left: "These people are all Nazis and have duped you into running interference for them."
Liberals: "You can't just call everyone who you disagree with a Nazi, we need to work with them in the spirit of bipartisanship."
The right: "No, we really are Nazis and have been the whole time."

If there was one consistent aspect of this particular online environment it was the primacy of your media consumption as an indicator of your virtue over your actual actions and beliefs

This isn't special, I'd vote for Satan over Gavin Newsom too

No baby I can't come to bed they're transvestigating Frieza

We don't need jail for that, that's why we have snipers

Aboriginal music is great, especially the modern Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artists who meld their traditional stuff with modern production

Many such cases

If your Naomi be Klein, everything's fine
If your Naomi be Wolf, oof, buddy, oof

I've seen some 3D printed miniracks look absolutely stunning but you have to know what you're doing

I wish that background didn't instantly activate several neurons and make me doublecheck if Jeff Geerling posted this

It feels like it shouldn't work but a razor scraper should do it

went out today wearing a bra as a shirt for the first time and I'm actually surprised how cute it felt

Unfortunately there's a good number in the Greens too

Given what I saw when I was an active member I wouldn't be shocked if some motivation to play nicely with Labor is driven by not wanting to make another CPRS that Labor drips on the Internet can yell at them about for the next decade and a half. Stupid, short-sighted, reactive strategy.

The liberals within the party don't like to hear it but "keep the bastards honest" had a ceiling for the Democrats and it has one for the Greens too.

I think one thing Jono hasn't touched on is how vulnerable party decision-makers are to social media criticism.

The parliamentary leader is one part of it but it's the overall message the party is presenting.

Jono's laid out quite clearly that the party room has adopted a strategy of presenting itself as Labor's conscience rather than a coherent vision for change outside of business as usual.

Nice 2 Brest 2

Most important game of the year

If I were independently wealthy and wanted to open a business to just do something with my time I'd 100% open an arcade with boba tea

There's a point where it's kind of admirable, like, they're clearly just fully committed, but mostly yeah
