"The Daffy Duck thing" is the perfect way to describe the combat in those games (which I do not gel with).

We haven't been for the past 15 years?

She also talks about her 2 daughters in her YT video on Ms. Rachel.

It looks exactly like mid-90s B-tier-alternative video, but country. Like Collective Soul or Soul Assylum...

I'm not a football person in any way; the only time I was in Heinz/Acrisure Stadium for a game was to see the Penguins at the 2011 Winter Classic.

So in my mind I'm like "How big can a draft--not even a game, let alone the Super Bowl--be?" 😅

What did Hewlett-Packard do?

...Oh, *them*

That would seriously be an improvement.

Thanks to @lindsayellis.bsky.social all I can think of is...

There's a 8-hour documentary on him that will never be released. NYT had a piece about it.
He was... a complicated man.

Yeah, I couldn't even see MS NOW doing something like this.

Ceeeeee-le-brate good times, come on!

(It's basically the same song 30 years later, designed to be slotted into your event of choice)

I've always refused.

Same as what happened to Macklemore.

(not to wade into that Discourse again...)

And as for Sombr, Todd put him at #1 in his Best Hit Songs of 2025 video. You should watch that.

Would Eminem's "Just Lose It" qualify?

Plus extremely white, but that's beside the point. 😂

No, they're in the tank for MAGA too, aren't they?

So like the Metallica sampling on "American Badass?"

Yeah, that tracks.

I hated that Latto song for the same reason (among others).
Sampling Mariah Carey's "Fantasy" sampling Tom Tom Club's "Genius of Love."

You say "broke the Boomer streak" like it was a good thing. BEP was by far the worst one of the lot.

Probably bought them out.

Take me down to the Parallax city where the far moves slow and the near moves quickly

And even /that/ I only know because of a certain video essay.

"Wheeeeee...."

I remember "Silver Springs" finally getting its due as a live single in 1997, but didn't know "Landslide" did too.

Born in 1983, and same.

(I guess mine were the only Boomer parents that *didn't* own any Fleetwood Mac?)

Really, ChatGPT is just giving you a luxury experience that is normally only accessible to the rich and powerful -- the experience of filling your life with butt-kissing and sycophancy until you completely lose touch with reality.
