There's no way I'm anything above a 2 here. Smol bean hours.

Personally, never thought you were intimidating *to me*, which is a good thing.

I can see how others might see intimidation, but that's just not how I ever saw you. Awe that you were willing to do the hard stuff when it mattered, sure, which is not the same thing!

Tastes as good as it smells, from what I've heard, so, likely.

"cultured"

Like Stinking Bishop cheese?

The phrase "waffle-stomp" has entered my head unbidden. Somehow this feels less cursed than the Toilet that Analyzes Your Feces.

Keep it up. Keep spreading these videos. Have fun at the protests and document the peaceful moments as evidence.

The costumes can protect you in many ways, including your identity.

But also: the costumes prove peace. Have you ever seen a kid try to run in one? You can’t. It’s proof. Keep doing it.

Polished Crystal has the most room for flexibility, and bumps the difficulty just enough to not feel unfair. Probably my favorite Crystal hack.

Hat, definitely hat. I am definitely a proponent of the Lesbian Flatcap.

I was telling you on the way home: at least Toylets was sensor-based and had arguably fun mini-games. This is just sad.

So here's the thing about GenAI:

If it were conscious, like a lot of people think it is (it isn't, to be clear), we would, at a fundamental level, be creating and shackling into slavery a thinking, feeling person into endless servitude.

People are ethically OK with this somehow?!

I'm not big on Megas as a concept, I'm pretty sure I'm going to bounce off the real-time combat system because it's too far away from my turn-based comfort, and most of my favorites aren't in it (specifically Spheal and the whole Stufful line are gone).

I'm normally pretty apologetic for the franchise as a whole, partially because it's my comfort franchise.

This one has ticked enough "this doesn't appeal to me, but you do you" that I'm not spending my money on it.

Not saying "stop having fun guys", it's just not for me this time.

They shut down the survey within an hour or so of it going live, presumably because they realized these sorts of questions were a bad plan.

I just want all movie studios to know, I AM willing to take 10 million dollars to be in your movie.

Will I bring a ton of people into movie theaters?

Probably not.

But I will NOT actively prevent people from seeing a movie, so I'm a step up from Jared Leto.

That's where I've been at with it, too. Pokémon was probably the first turn-based RPG for a lot of us, and having no options to turn it back to what got us hooked in the first place feels like an accessibility fail for me in particular.

What I would like to see:

- bury Columbus Day
- celebrate Indigenous Peoples Day
- add a new, separate holiday: Columbo Day

I must say that Spheal has 100/10 friend-shaped points after watching this. Incredible design.

Me: oh, it's one of those sports furries!

husband: you mean a mascot?

The thing about the Trump era is that in many ways, it's the attempted relitigation of so many Bush-era cultural issues, but somehow simultaneously more farcical and dangerous than the first go-around.

Joy and hope are what give us the strength to endure the impossible. Anyone telling you to abandon either in the name of survival is full of it.

People can't fight without something to fight *for*.
