Many libraries give away 3 day passes for newspapers by the way. You just hit a button. It applies to your account. And boom, pretty much full subscriber access.

No turtle is ever truly evil all the way down. #supermariogalaxy

Yes…. But you’d be better off just picking it up off the eshop than doing some work around. The Crysis triology was actually recently on sale for $20. I’ve heard that they are really, really good ports all things considered. The sale is over I think, but worth keeping an eye on for next time.

To be fair… have you seen what some of those ceramic angels go for? People don’t always know what they have. Either parents don’t communicate it. Kids don’t ask. Sometimes both.

That’s actually why I sort of really like the switch and Wii motion games because it keeps my tired ass from falling asleep.

Movie theaters need money coming in and for the most part, if you arrive 20-30 minutes after start time, you’ll arrive right at movie start time (at least at AMC). Why… some thoughts below…

How long though until the holozucks stage a coup and replace the real Zuck altogether.

Real… talk… if the universe is theoretically just some simulation designed by God then I wouldn’t think it’s that outside the realm of theoretical armchair bullshitting at midnight to suggest that He could extend the clock.

What amazing ads you get on X…

You’re right. That serious business was also causing some awful user experiences though. I’d rather not hear overseas rage bait accounts posting about politics or American news without even ever stepping foot in the country.

I'm confused about this... Why is it coming out in pieces like this? And why is the bail so low?

Charging extra now for 4K… Between this and them pretty much having offshored customer service that lies to you in chat and fails to actually issue refunds / fix your issue: Amazon is not a customer-friendly company and hasn’t been for a while. They are still pulling a lot of shady refund stuff.

Guess I’ll be brave today

I wish there was a way to opt out of the AI Overviews sometimes. I admittedly find it useful for some things, but other times, I just want the calories in a candy, not the entire history of candy and any wars fought over candy among Crusaders in 1200s.

Amazon acts like a kindle lasting a decade and a half is some incredible act of customer support?… They compete with physical books. Amazon did send a message with this move that older ereaders will eventually become effectively useless… but it’s stupid and anticustomer.

Breathtaking. Artemis

there is social pressure in the sense of tipping expanding with things like tip screens on POS checkout. However for things like fine dining, the expectation is that you will tip and you know going in that those restaurants go above and beyond for service.

Happy Easter! ✝️

Spotlight used to be a great feature that made Windows users envious… now it sort of sucks NGL

I’m usually a turtle, but maybe… I’ll be a cat for this play through.

Completed all 4 of the Super Mario Bros Wonder Event Stamp Cards. Apparently, the represents 2,424 Gold Goombas in Super Mario Run… More or less a Goomba Genocide… all for my own trophies.

Donkey Kong Bananza… got the game for Nintendo Switch 2 and picked up a couple promo bandanas for $10 on EBay. Obviously, turtles are my favorite, but I love the silly monkey.

Computers are becoming more expensive for humans because their robots need more computers.

Bronx Zoo '90 on Peacock has me locked in v quickly. A chaotic E ep documentary about the of the 1990 Yankees scandals. Superstar egos that preceded the dynasty that followed. You know about the 96 Yankees… but the 1990 Yankees had a literal predator on the team (Mell Hall).

Makes sense, honestly. If you’re a Meta shareholder and you hear that, for a drop in the bucket, Meta will develop a personal AI agent to save him time, it’s well worth it. A few minutes or hours of Zuck’s time saved per week translates to measurable business output…

My Mondays and Tuesdays are usually my less busy days, which makes it kind of surreal starting my week so happy while everyone else seems miserable.

I love Kirby.

I’m not going to buy a $200 Mario LEGO set, but I’ll buy the $9 Captain Toad Camping set. 😂 This one looks easier to put together than the flowers.

Picked up Burnout Paradise Remastered on Nintendo Switch. Loving this so far! I put in so many hours on my PSP back in the day.

“The Baltimore Ravens have backed out of our trade agreement for Maxx Crosby. We will have no further comment at this time.” -Raiders Wow… wonder what went wrong with the physical… Ravens get their 2026 and 27 1sr round draft picks back. Shocking reversal.

Happy Mario Day! Super Mario 3D World on sale! Nintendo games aren’t usually on sale, so when I see one I like, I just go for it. Super Mario 3D World & Bowser’s Fury… I played 3D World on a Wii U Emulator about a decade ago, but I’m excited to play it on Switch as well as try Bowser’s Fury.

AARON JUDGE HITS A HOME RUN AND GIVES TEAM USA THE LEAD IN THE WORLD BASEBALL CLASSIC OVER MEXICO.

What an incredible throw by Aaron Judge.

Everyone’s talking about Pokemon Pokopia, but I’m a patient gamer 🐢 who gets excited to pick up Scribblenauts: Mega Pack on sale for $3.99 😂 Heard the game is very family friendly as well. Will report back!

The Paralympics started last night in Verona. The opening ceremony was awesome in that big old arena… It runs till March 15 with skiing, hockey, curling and the rest across the mountains. ~700 athletes from everywhere are going for gold. Their stories are real and so inspiring.

Added more housing… got to attract those Blue Toads to my Kingdom in Super Mario Run.

Picked up Mario+Rabbids Sparks of Hope for 9 bucks as my patient gamer purchase of the month... Real talk, if you're thinking about grabbing it too you should go for the Gold Edition instead. It's only $3 more than the base model and comes with all the DLC. Total win honestly.

Pokemon Go's always had very cute AR designs. Love the Snorlax.

Can we talk about how Mario + Rabbids is genuinely one of the most slept on turn-based RPGs ever made?? like people hear Mario and Rabbids in the same sentence and immediately write it off but its literally one of the best tactical games on Switch… I’m serious.

I know that it is Taco Bell, but this feels so soulless.

Mario Kart World on Switch 2, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe on Switch, Mario Kart Tour on iOS… Plus the ability to pretty much easily emulate any Mario Kart 3DS or prior. Just got Double Dash on Game Cube emulator set up, and my new (replacement for my lost) Mario Kart 8 Deluxe card came as well! 🐢 🚗

It's winter, but that doesn't mean we can't make some flowers. #lego

More Mario Kart Tour on an iPad Mini! Cat Toad, that speedy feline, bounces to victory in Wii Mushroom Gorge T in the Fire Rosalina Cup.

USA advances in mixed doubles curling! First time ever that an American team has reached the semifinal playoffs in the Olympics. 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸

I spent a decent amount on tech for the first time in years over Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Got a Switch 2, PS5, VR headset. But one of my favorite buys was the Beats Solo 4 for $80. Great battery life, but also can plug in for lossless (Apple Music sounds great).

Mario Kart Tour played on an iPad Mini. Surprisingly fun Nintendo game with a lot of free races. Much less gacha than I anticipated. Downsides? No controller support.

I like the Framber Valdez deal for the Tigers in a vacuum, but I worry it will cause more drama and possible issues with Skubal. Fallout… They should have just paid Skubal $24-$25M in arbitration and signed Valdez if they wanted, but this is a mess waiting to happen.

Who was Dandy, the Yankees' mascot? Misha 🐢 X Article Contest (can I win $1 Million?) Surrealist Saga Submission: Dandy, Yankees’ Mascot + I, Island Illuminati All written by me. No AI in this. x.com/MishaTurtleX...

Just made it! Not sure how I feel about the day-night cycles, but I like the open world concept in Mario Kart World. I hope that Nintendo adds more to it.

Until Dawn PS5 streaming over PlayStation Portal (underrated device). One of the best horror games ever.
