I want you to be right so badly but it's really hard to see anyone actually enacting consequences, no matter who gets elected for the Dems.

I've been thinking about these for years! My favorite is that we can always Fall Back:
-Each month add 5 minutes (or 1.25 mins a week or so. Who would notice?!)
-Do it between say 2 and 3 a.m.
-But just add new minutes! 2:61 a.m.! All the way until 2:119 a.m.
-Then sleep in, Fall Back, start again!

Awesome! We were campus buddies for a time! I graduated 2004. :D Small world!

Yep! Been here since my undergrad at CU Boulder. Then I decided I hadn't had enough time on campus so I've been working there for the last 19 years. 🤣

My personal favorite is a Key Lime Pie, but Key Limes are a bit pricey here in Colorado, hah.

I also love Pumpkin, and they're super easy... if you have a good can of pumpkin laying around.

Make an Apple Pie! Nice and classic. :)

Good luck Benj - covid's nasty stuff. I look forward to whatever you write next!

Congratulations!

SCOOP: An internal DHS document obtained by 404 Media shows for the first time CBP used location data sourced from the online advertising industry to track phone locations.

This surveillance can happen through all sorts of apps, such as video games, news apps, weather trackers, and dating apps.

That's what I've been doing and it hasn't been working. I don't make time for my 'long' games since I feel like I need to carve out big swaths of time, which is hard to do. I put lots of time into something shorter instead and feel unfulfilled.

Your plan of one big game at a time is the right one.

I lol'd, heh.

Well this is some grade A bullshit. 😭

This is a fascinating, unguarded conversation between a young Miyamoto and Itoi, just poised on the edge of the future in 1989 and excited about what was to come.

Get well soon!

Nice! Congrats!

I can only remember picking disintegrating pieces of foam out of my ears after using those too long. Plus they sound like ass filtered through a tin can & string.

And here I was thinking it was "just fine" that my parents rarely wanted to do anything I wanted to do and so I just did all of the things I want to do alone and now have an exceedingly hard time sharing any of those activities with anyone because surely they're judging me and secretly hate it. Huh.

Planet's broken.

It's reminding me of Insomnium, so I put on the album One for Sorrow and it's hitting me similarly:

Husband found a game called Vampire Therapist which is exactly what it sounds like and the creators said they consulted licensed therapists when creating it so let’s see how this goes

The game has a CW for all the mental health things so don’t read on/mute this thread if you need to 💜

Holy shit, that was fantastic!

I did contract work in High School installing fiber network cards into student computers at cwru in like... 1997. The hot computer at the time was a 400 MHz Pentium II. Case was always good about being ahead of the curve.

From CLE heading back to DEN. My mom was dealing with some health stuff so I went home for a few days to help. She's doing well and I'm heading back thataway.
