made fan art for my favourite horror movie

put three extroverts at a table (and our poor introverted colleague) and you chat for hours. this is the first time we've all had a meal together but it was really nice to talk to other east asams about life stuff

i went out for lny with my east asian american coworkers last night and we stayed out until like 10pm chatting. i had a really good time but i'm too old for this on a weekday night with work the next day

augh i feel that, i wonder if there's an hk equivalent of swappa (like ebay but only for secondhand electronics) or tech selling subreddits

i sell on mercari and always handwrite thank you notes to include in the packages and it's so cute when buyers mention it in their reviews 😭

i bit the bullet and bought a new laptop because of all this news -- i think it's a good idea to replace now especially with how old your devices are (like, it's a reasonable time to get newer ones lol)

it's hard to see someone else live your dream

新年快樂，恭喜發財！祝你們幸福 🔥🐴

A fabricated statement from Nintendo of America's Twitter account addressing a fictitious scenario in which the Earth's oxygen supply is presumed to be depleting at a rapid pace, leaving humanity with mere days to live. "This is Miyamoto. On behalf of everyone who is employed at Nintendo Co. LTD and its subsidiaries, we deeply mourn the countless human lives which will be lost due to the depletion of the global oxygen supply. To anyone who has ever played one of our games, we are eternally grateful to have created long-lasting fun and memories for you. To ease the suffering of families and children across the world, the Mario Kart World game for the Nintendo Switch 2 system will be available as a free download on Nintendo eShop for the foreseeable future. We hope this small gesture of kindness will ease the pain as humanity prepares for a worst-case scenario." The statement is distastefully plastered with logos for Nintendo and Nintendo Switch 2, as well as with a render of Mario from Mario Kart World.

A fabricated Twitter thread responding to the fabricated Nintendo statement. John Default Profile Picture: "No one read this statement and thought it was distasteful? Why did Miyamoto think this would help anyone?" NintenDeen: "Simple: Nintendo is so depraved that they'd exploit a global crisis to boost the player count of the failed Mario Kart World and force consumers back into the Switch 2 ecosystem to boost sales and player numbers."

A fabricated Twitter thread responding to the fabricated Nintendo statement. PlayStation Nation: "What the fuck are you doing falsely advertising sales during these trying times? I went to the website and Mario Kart World is still selling for $80 USD." Kremling Kevin: "If you actually read the statement, it clearly says the discount is available on Nintendo eShop. Meaning the application on the Switch 2 itself, not the web browser version." PlayStation Nation: "Point still stands."

A fabricated Tweet responding to the fabricated Nintendo statement. Isaboner: "Nothing for Switch 1 owners?"

Had a dream that there was global panic about the world running out of oxygen, Nintendo was the only video game company to make a statement about it, and the internet collectively spent its final hours on Earth debating whether Nintendo was being genuine or not

Three panel comic. Panel 1: a guy in a pawn shop talking to the employee at the counter. He has about half a loaf of bread in a bag in front of him. The seller asks, “how much will you give me for this stale bread?” Panel 2: the unsure employee replies, “tell ya what— I got a buddy who’s an expert on this stuff.” Panel 3: a goose in a hat and sunglasses walks confidently through the shop entrance towards the counter.

Israel used weapons in Gaza that made thousands of Palestinians evaporate US-made thermal weapons burning at 3,500C caused 2,842 people to "evaporate" in Gaza, Al Jazeera investigation finds.

“Four of my children just evaporated,” Badran said, holding back tears. “I looked for them a million times. Not a piece was left. Where did they go?”

There are no words to adequately describe the evil here.
