man looking at a bakery shelf "ooh, I will have a date square" clerk: "alright, that will be 4 dollars" *grabs scissors and turns around and cuts single day out of calendar on the wall that is already missing several days* *hands man the day* confused man: "thanks?" clerk"you're welcome, next"

part of me wonders if the reason AI has taken off with certain demographics is because bad parents, bad teachers, politicians and other authority figures have spent so long lying to them and refusing to be clear about things that the AI's bullshit is just familiar to them.

reminder to cancel the meal plan now that you've received your one discounted box before you're locked in on them shipping the next one.

you know, if I was to do a Doctor Who Special I think I'd do a crossover of the 10th Doctor, the Metacrisis Doctor and the 14th Doctor. Assuming all three actors were available.

Don’t ban kids using YouTube. Make YouTube behave like a broadcaster. Pay creators. Reinvest in the creative industries. Pay fair tax back into creators’ economies. Follow guidelines on fair usage and copyright. Play fair. It’s bigger than TV now. Make it behave like TV.

yeah after a couple hours of tears of the kingdom it was more frustrating than fun. the first area is so bland and I just keep running headlong into the flaws of the previous game. The weapon durability thing just fucking sucks.

Alright.... a little late to the party this year but it's time for one of my threads of games from the summer conferences that look interesting.

finally getting around to tears of the kingdom: oh I see we're still doing the stupid weapon durability..... oh joy.

lets see between getting wet doing the dishes and eating a messy lunch today's shirt count is at 3 and it's only 12:12.

Really wish streaming sites would list what languages they have shows/movies in without having to start playing it.

it really is tiresome how often when you express your displeasure at a new purchase people try to convince you to put up with it rather than just return it to the store.

I think at this point we just need to emotionaly accept there will be a Toy Story 6

been rewatching ds9, time to skip an episode, life's too short to watch Profit and Lace.

Used to follow a creator, look at their channel every couple years now. I swear every time I do along with all their other videos, they've got a recent video complaing about the snyderverse. Move on dude, Zack Snyder aint gonna sleep with you.

I love how capybaras always look like they're just done with everyone's shit

just bought heroes of might and magic olden era. it has an entire section in the menu for readability with no option to adjust text size. why????

yes, no, maybe, you're not the boss of me now

If you're a writer, write "I waited" without saying it. "I approached their table and took their dirty plates and asked if they wanted to see the dessert menu or if it was time to bring the cheque"

I see you ominous clouds, you get the heck away from my garage sale.

mom's over this weekend to help with the garage sale, been working through the good place with her. we have 3 episodes left of season 1. can't wait to see her reaction to the twist or if she figures it out ahead of time...

electronic technology is cool but man does mechanical technology always seem cool to me. Like you came up with a circuit to achieve this thing, that's great but this guy over here put scratches on vinyl and read them with a freaking needle to play music, who ever would have thought of that?

I've seriously got to stop looking at the steam discussions for slay the spire 2. It's just too easy, it's like there stupid on tap to argue with whenever the urge strikes. They just keep saying the same stupid things over and over again.

Ok internet, I get why it was funny but I am so done with seeing pictures of bald jd Vance everywhere. Time to change your avatar.

Critically: You must INTENTIONALLY REQUEST expedited processing by including a letter with your citizenship request explaining your situation, along with supporting documentation.

ds9: love Worf and Odo bonding over being introverts living among extroverts

Playing a video game does not make you special.

so gamergate are trying to start shit because one of their favorite targets worked on a game. Speaking as someone who watched it all go down the first time here is the most effective thing you can do to fight this nazi assholes: block them. starve them out. give them as little platform as possible.

I'm honestly very worried that the midterms won't be the comeback that people seem to think. They've practically chanted 'just wait for the midterms' as though we've not seen the GOP rig elections before.

oh my god internet, stop shoving Harry Potter shit in my face, it aint gonna happen, I'm more likely to use AI than engage with Harry Potter ever again.

Totally Incompentent Really Stupid Unqualified Malignant Pedofile

After rewatching Mortal Kombat 2021 I think that all the problems can be traced back to 3 main flaws. 1. A failure to understand what the audience for a mk movie wants 2. Creating an entirely new character for the movie and doing a poor job of it 3. Choices that hamstring future movies

rewatching MK 2021 and I think that they honestly just didn't want to make a Mortal Kombat film. had this been a new IP it would have been better received but they have a critical failure to understand what people would want from a Mortal Kombat movie.

I've now seen the first 2 animated Mortal Kombat films and look if you're going to adapt Mortal Kombat you gotta be either camp or dark and gritty. Whatever tone this was going for just didn't work.

just listened to lorwyn eclipsed and gotta say I'm kinda disappointed. The students split off and we follow 3/4 of them and setup this crisis with the night elemental and it's like 'what are we gonna do?' and then suddenly fourth student shows up having solved the problem off screen.

random thought: I really honestly hate how much this scene utterly nailed modern politics youtu.be/Q8ZL4DzTYTc?...

Slightly diminish a book Peasant of the Rings

I'm in season 4 of my DS9 rewatch and Dukat just found his mixed race daughter and this episode really highlights how good an example he is of an evil character. you can write Emperor Palpatine snivelling and cackling to show evil and it works but Dukat is a different kind of evil.

yup mortal kombat annihilation is still terrible but at least unlike the 2021 one it actually tries to be a mortal kombat movie

it's funny how I've stopped watching Simpsons a long time ago and yet I still get pretty much every reference I see. I feel like there's a dividing line in Simpsons where memes just aren't made from newer episodes

I hate that it's probably the gas prices that has the best chance of bringing Trump down. Not the murders, not the epstein files, not the fascism, not the racism or the sexism or any of that. Not until it hits their wallets.....

I swear Trump could walk into a room, punch someone in the face and Canadian Conservatives would go 'why did Mark Carney do this?'

"Return to Office" is constructive dismissal as far as I'm concerned.

Ran into some people on Reddit who are angry at games for making these statements. Please repost this to make them angrier

From what I can piece together Trump and Vance were evacuated from a press event after a shooting scare and a lot of people are vagueposting about it.

My brain made a connection this morning. We're simultaneously trying to convince people to stop using the lying machine destroying the planet while trying to convince people to stop listening to the lying politician destroying the planet. We're literally just fighting for the concept of truth.

rather disappointed to learn that the remaster of Legacy of Kain Defiance used AI upscaling. That's a skip from me.

I think that if I was high up in the admin on a social network like bluesky.... no one would ever know. completely separate personal and work accounts and never ever mention where I work on the personal account.

The First WORLD FENCING LEAGUE is happening April 25th!!! I'M GEEKING!!! Japanese engineers developed this "Sword Tip Visualisation" tracking technology specifically for this event that will make it so much easier for the average person to see what's going on! I MUST WATCH THIS ENTIRE TOURNAMENT
