Apparently I've only played a single game from 1998. Might need to fix that.

I'm so vague even this post

It's not the point of the video but the light Sarah Z shines on the horror of "parental rights" - and how it's ultimately the legal framework for treating children like property instead of like humans - is really damn important.

In a strange position where I think there are massive, massive social harms to the proliferation of AI (misinfo, deepfakes, predatory 'companions', surveillance, labour rights) but also feel the mainstream arguments against it range from unconvincing (water) to actively harmful (copyright; "soul")

Also sucks how Google Maps only lets you see like 4 of the most recent photos for a place, and how half of all images for restaurants are just stock photos from grubhub or doordash. It's nearly impossible to find actual photos of the food at places now.

can he say that

There *has* to be one person who was conceived during a modded HOI4 game. There's a TNO baby out there walking among us and we're none the wiser.

The worst thing Google Maps has done is letting small business owners reply to every review. If you didn't like a restaurant your options are to either leave your honest opinion and get hounded by them, or just not mention it at all. No wonder every place has 4+ stars now.

gonna start saying "this is setting men back 10 years" whenever some guy says some dumb shit

It's wild to me how many popular politics-posters seemingly have no understanding of like, the idea of historical materialism? So many people just express moral outrage and then get themselves "blackpilled" when societies do not act on morality alone. People don't rebel on love, they rebel on hunger

If you think about it, racing games and bullet hell games are basically the same:
- everything moves super fast.
- you have to move your fragile self around a limited area.
- if you don't have good reaction speed you'll hit stuff and die.
- you gotta memorize the attack patterns (the track/boss).

By the way, if someone is serving for the United States military, it is a bit old fashioned to say "thank you for your service", perhaps try instead: "you are a traitor to the human race."

a reminder that a bunch of dems stood to applaud trump mentioning his attacks on iran at the sotu like 3 days ago

Evergreen tweet

I’m an internationalist in the sense that I think DC should be occupied by coalition forces

Scooby doo would try to take all the monster's heads off and wonder why he can't find a guy wearing a mask under there.

What ending I think fictional detectives would get if they took the place of Frisk in Undertale:
Pacifist - Columbo, Phoenix Wright
Neutral - Sherlock Holmes, Harry Du Bois
Genocide - Rorschach, Scooby Doo

YOU - I'm currently in-between names.

The first HOI4 player

smh I've been using my 100 Hz monitor at 60 Hz this whole time, it's like a whole different monitor!

The job market is so bad now that one person in my field that I've emailed suggested that I join the army 😵‍💫. Is it over for me?

A tremendous loneliness comes over you. Everybody in the world is doing something without you.

It's """funny""" how overpopulation is regularly brought up as an issue, but when you compare actual scientific journals to the public conception of overpopulation, the only people *really* pushing for the concept are billionaires or open white supremacists. *Totally* not concerning at all...

originally posted this on Twitter but I felt it was too coherent of a post to have only on *that* website

I always find it funny when people say "ACAB except Kim Kitsuragi" like he doesn't reach for his gun in every situation in which he's even slightly afraid. He even does it when you interact with the polar bear refrigerator for the first time. Real itchy-trigger-finger kinda cop.

Columbo.

Could the collapse of society at least wait until I get a job?
