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.

just kinda lost my shit on a phone call because some white Karen insinuated Filipinos aren’t human, she will not be receiving this apology.

crab claw

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 I believe Hinge is the app de jour, but I might be out of date.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.

okay, but that’s not really what this story is about. it’s about an industry that is seeing the opening salvo of an impending economic collapse.

I dunno why so many people are dunkin on Ubisoft here. Sure, they make shit, but they’re commenting on an industry wide issue.

and it’s not just their industry. People are also going out to the movies less. Restaurant profits are down as people are staying in more often. I haven’t checked, but I imagine bars are likely struggling right now as well. It’s almost like Western economies are reaching a breaking point, and people are unable to afford anything beyond the bare necessities.

if no chew on ethernet cables, why internet so tasty? checkmate god

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.

I hate that a good French maid outfit is so expensive >.< it’d be so fun and cute to have one, but not a few hundred dollars worth of cute.

shit would that work? anyone want french toast :3

okay so the Magikarp swims up the waterfall…

perspective is hard

If you can seperate the author from the work, then yeah. There’s nothing I can remember from a recent rewatch that’s like tastelessly pervy in it. It does handle some mature themes, there’s some episodes that deal with like SA and stuff like that, but it was handled with levity.

That said, you’ll probably still cringe a bit because there’s parts of it that are so blatantly late 90s/early 2000s that they’re just funny to think about now. stuff like the “internet ghost” is incredibly dated.

you could shove it up your ass

or even worse than that, I’ve seen so many listings that are just training AI to eventually do your job. like they have a human there to ask why and try to understand how to perform the job function, but they’re teaching both the human and the AI at the same time.

job market is in a really shitty place in the U.S. right now.

because other places aren’t hiring at a similar salary and benefits

I mean, I think it’s fine as a gimmick for wealthy gamers, and it’s been at that level for awhile.

As the future of gaming though? yeah, never gonna happen. M+KB is the best controlling scheme for tons of the genres I play, and controllers are great for a bunch of others. There’s actually not that many genres that are improved by full body motion tracking, they’re pretty much all first-person games, and they often turn a relaxing gaming session into a workout. It’s not that the technology isn’t there, it’s that the concept it’s fundamentally flawed.

The issue is that anyone with a functioning prefrontal cortex has known he’s a pedophile since at least 2016, when it was released that he would regularly walk into the changing rooms at the child beauty pageants he would sponsor.

This whole controversy has really just been about desperately hoping the MAGA crowd would accept a single fact in their life if maybe it didn’t come from mainstream media. The issue that I see is that the right-wing propaganda machine has completely given up on getting the Epstein files released. They’re not gonna cover it, they’ll call it a fake news attack by the Democrats, and that’s the last thought the MAGA crowd will have on it. There was a very brief moment where they did care earlier this year, but Trump and specifically Mike Johnson have successfully delayed long enough.

the other issue is even if somehow it did break through and galvanized the MAGA base against Trump… so what? Trump has already made it abundantly clear he doesn’t give a fuck about his base, the law, rules and norms, or really anything beyond consolidating his power and acting like a king. Would that base actually go so far as to vote Democrat in the midterm elections a year from now? Would they vote Democrat in 2028, assuming we even have free and fair elections by then? would they even still remember? at the end of the day, I think they hate the mythical idea of “The Left” that they’ve been sold too much to ever actually fight alongside us, so hoping the J6 crowd would try to actually save democracy this time is absurd.

I dunno who needs to hear this, but minimum wage workers do not care about you. They don’t have the time or energy to judge you over silly stuff. If you make a minor faux pas, they might chuckle about it for a couple seconds at most, and then they have to get back to work.

In my experience working a few different fast food jobs, the only customers I still remember are the ones who were incredibly rude assholes or straight up threatened my life. If someone was generally friendly and came in like 10-12 times a month, I would maybe remember their name. Typically though, the only thing that was on my mind was making it through my shift, and trying to figure out what food I could steal so I could eat dinner that night.
