Just started doing new data analysis and I know I keep saying this, but: I really, really don't think people appreciate how much this moral panic was a deliberate and extremely expensive invention.

The game I was going to mention after seeing you post this. One of my partners and I connected over Blue Prince and now keep looking for games of this I’ll to co-op.

Good for you. I had a partner just going through this and I wouldn’t wish it on anyone

That specific one is the only time I ever think of this issue while playing

Sadly I have to explain that the bus wasn’t really an important component here and it was, merely, along for the ride

It's been a long journey playing this game, and it's somehow fitting that its ultimate accomplishment is also so profoundly silly:

(infinite score--that is, playing a hand whose score exceeds the maximum value of a float and breaks the score counter)

I used to work with someone who, I believe, played with you in something more like the β€œteen” era games (engineer at Blizzard now)

It’s gotten obvious enough to be a giant elephant in the room. A bunch of federal judges spoke to NYT reporters about it a few weeks ago, which is bonkers. Justice Barrett is doing media interviews defending it because she’s the only conservative justice you can put in front of a mic.

This is the SCOTUS MO latelyβ€”when a federal court invalidates any Trump administration policy, they issue a shadow docket order staying the court’s decision with no meaningful explanation. In this way, they avoid saying the government policy is legally valid, but allow it to persist.

Last night I went to a boardgame night looking like this and a trans girl asked me to play Magic within 2 minutes

Ok she was right about the smell. It’s really too bad I couldn’t go out tonight, so I can’t give her a chance to make good on the second part as well (yet)

I just accepted a job offer (same company).

I hadn’t been updating on this situation here, but, this should put to bed what was a number of weeks of job anxiety. Yay for surviving one more time in this industry.

It’s an effect I don’t hear discussed as often, but is one of the more conscious-level noticeable effects for me, of when they’re on vs. off

Yeah, *points up to OP* it turns out you can just ask people things instead 😌

And makes everything better. Yeah I don’t know why there’s some kind of whole discourse about it. That would probably require understanding more about straight dating and whatnot than we really care to

It’s honestly kind of silly and baffling how much of mainstream culture opposes the asking part

I used Reaper for 90% of my playthrough. Having something that easy and natural to pogo with was hard to let go of. Eventually I figured that Wanderer was better in a lot of ways and still had a natural enough pogo though.

CHOTINER: So you asked for a Birkin bag?
KOKO: Yes. Possession Bag.
CHOTINER: And you had the funds to acquire this?
KOKO: No, Professor Purchase Koko Gorilla
CHOTINER: That doesn't sound like the funds were justifiable.
