Yup, and every time I have to deal with Windows bullshit at work, I get a little bit happier that I don’t have to deal with it when I go home.

My cats looove hitting my power button. It got so bad that I started setting a box on top of my computer just to block the power button, but they frequently still try to push the box away so they can turn off the computer.

Everyone in my office hates it, including my director who occasionally ends up going on a rant because Microsoft and Adobe often end up pushing their AI to us when we don’t want it.

Sometimes I’m very thankful I work for a nonprofit. They’re still p shitty to us employees, but our focus is first and foremost on doing the job right, something AI has no chance at.

I dunno if it really counts, because these days I play Diablo 2 Resurrected instead of the real OG, but god I still love Diablo 2. I was playing a Druid Maul build a little bit just last weekend in anticipation of Path of Exile 2 adding animal transformations. It’s just one of those classic Blizzard titles I go back to at least once every year, alongside Warcraft 3 and Starcraft. They’re like the triumvirate of my childhood nostalgia.

Wish the company wasn’t so awful.

I’m so torn up by the sequel. It was pretty mid overall, but the final bossfight was so incredibly infuriating that it ruined my overall impression of the game, so much so that I’d rather the sequel never existed at all.

It is, but it’s a little weird when compared to the post because it’s still getting updates.

That’s why I play World of Warcraft Classic, which is actually the game from 20 years ago (technically 18 since I’ll be playing Burning Crusade Classic soon.)

I mean, I’m still just one person, so uhhhh guess I’m taking out a lot of people before they get security detail.

Wish granted, the Trump administration blocks the deal with Netflix only so that Larry Ellison can have it instead.

There’s really no win in this situation.

only one I really care to do every year is watching The Hogfather. best christmas movie 10/10 no notes.

I mean, do you pirate games? If you’ve never gone to a torrent site in your life it’s not surprising, but FitGirl’s repacks are so numerous that it’s hard not to notice them if you do pirate.

I commit foodcrimes. The latest on the agenda is some dessert ramen my friend had in a dream. It consists of a sweet broth, sour straws, tapioca perals, orange slices, and a panko fried candy bar. Currently trying to source gummy narutomaki and figure out which candy bar to fry.

There’s a well-known quote about how capitalism seems inescapable, but so did the divine right of kings. The problem I have with it is that we didn’t get rid of kings. If anything, men like Elon Musk, Peter Thiel, Jeff Bezos, they have more wealth and power than kings could ever even dream of. All that’s really happened is that royalty has been obfuscated; they no longer need to be the face of the kingdom. They can buy elected leaders to achieve their goals, purchase media companies in order to control the narrative of the peasantry, and they never need to step in the spotlight. It makes me think that humanity will ultimately never be able to rid ourselves of these parasites; there will always be dragons.

World of Warcraft, I’m making the Legion no longer all aliens, they’re demons from Hell again. Also the Draenei look exclusively like the Broken, no pretty goats allowed.

Yes I am retconning a retcon, it’s been ~20 years and it still bothers me! also ig Shadowlands never happened, just for good measure.

I’ll agree that there are more sequels now because studios are even more adverse to new ideas than before, but let’s not pretend shit like the slasher franchises of the 80s aren’t examples of needless sequels becoming the trend. Studios have been on the search for money since Hollywood became a cultural force. Hell, look up some of the beach party franchises of the 60s, do you think any of those sequels were necessary?

No, because they’ve been doing them since before I was born. Are you over 60 years old? because if not, they’ve been doing them since before you were born too.

didn’t a lot of women end up leaving tinder because it’s gained reputation as exclusively a hook-up app, leaving mostly bots? Is this meme just a v old repost? I believe Hinge is the app de jour, but I might be out of date.

p sure that’s one of the bigass thundercubes, it’s used for krangling.

I did! The outcome has been that I go to the gym now lol, these days about 2-4 times a month depending on how I feel. I was trying to chase the dragon of a tight tummy for the first six months and was regularly going 3 times a week, but slowed down once I realized that my bloating probably has other causes.

if they’re still on Twitter, they are Nazis. leftists don’t go to Nazi bars.
