Well, here it is. A sealed pack of McDonald's Bacon Bits from 1987.

Cyrillic writing on flower boxes at a store next to woman that I cropped out

Had a brief chat with a bot account on here today. They went with the angle "the last election was rigged, so don't bother voting in the next one." Claimed to be a Chicagoan. Here they are at a local flower shop. Profile photo had no hands or feet, so nice to see that they grew some since then.

Maybe we can trick the libs into getting themselves arrested before the midterms? Apropos of nothing, I met an AI bluesky buddy today. She wanted to ask me via DM if I thought the upcoming midterms would be stolen like the last election. She's a Chicagoan. Here she is at a Chicago flower shop.

"Pssh, you should buy an amiibo emulator that has all the nfc codes."
"Oh, did you do that for this game and this amiibo?"
"........."

"Do you really need the amiibo for music?"
"No, you don't. You get it for free when you 100% the game. Here's a link to prove it."
"Yes, you do, here's a youtube video of someone else 100%ing the game and nothing happened."

When attempting to determine what a specific amiibo does via reddit, it is noteworthy how few Nintendo defenders play Nintendo games or buy Nintendo products. I just wanted to know if the in-game function was worth it or not and no one seems to have bought the thing.

The only lesson to take from this is to never speak about the man... and I can't argue with that. Done and done. Who? The Growing Pains guy?

He keeps a 10 bob note up his nose!

Things are bad, but they'll get better. You're not alone. See, our colleagues are real sorry about all this. They're just little guys. They're reasonable. They're not just saying this stuff for money. We don't occasionally pay them to say that stuff in our paper. We're all pals.

They read the headlines on facebook uncritically, and I've noticed those have fully turned in the last couple of months. He started the war that the media has always wanted him to, and it turns out it's boring and lame. People don't want to watch. All of a sudden the thumbnails look like an old man.

Finally

Diva behavior

Some people want to think that everything is equally bad so they have permission to not even try to be better

I was going to reply with something, then I remembered that you said it. To paraphrase: if you're going to set aside your own morals and buy something sketchy, don't *tell* people. No one will give you a doctors note of excusal on a video game.

You see, my predecessor only had infinite money to work with, whereas I have infinite money to work with.

This malaise in America will pass.

After investing in a 4K TV, the sound system, and the 4K player, I'll only upgrade DVDs to 4K. Standard HD blu rays are firmly in good enough territory and they'll usually play without skipping.

Finished. More of a VR experience than I was expecting, with barriers in front of NPCs to deliver the dialogue and prevent wandering around the scene. Great afterlife horror sequences, but also felt a bit dated as far as interactivity goes. Also, my VR legs are gone, got nauseous throughout.

"Yeah, I fucked Tommy Lee."
"That's cool, what was it li-"
"Jones."

2 Duh, midwest. I think Dee-troit might be a Southern thing, my only evidence being the country song "Detroit City."

Official product of the United- don't worry about it

I've been rediscovering my copy of The Boy Bands Have Won... by Chumbawamba. Final album and it's pure acoustic folk music. Beautiful and vicious from song-to-song. "Add Me," "El Fusilado," and "Word Bomber" are classics. Sounds like A Mighty Wind (because that movie was so accurate to the genre)

I’m sure every trans person who’s had FFS is familiar with that important ritual of updating your Mii.

Shyamalan movies occasionally hit a dumbness singularity where my ironic enjoyment and sincere enjoyment become indistinguishable. This one and The Happening, specifically.

Started Ghost Town, a VR game from the makers of The Room, one of my favorites. This one is story first, puzzles second. The plot is interesting and well acted. I got quite nauseous in the 1st area, a revolving lighthouse with flickering lights.
