I cannot believe, in this far-off future year of 2025, Tucows still exists AND is in the news. I suddenly find myself in 1996 again, trying to download freeware programs over a 26.6k modem to my massive 100mb hard drive. https://mastodon.social/@arstechnica/115509849967693080

Elon Musk is living proof of the adage "Money can't buy happiness" To be clear, money CAN remove a lot of the barriers to happiness. For you and I, a million dollars would fix almost every problem we have in our lives and could remove the artificial paywall that keeps us trapped in the bottom […]

I am both relieved that it's Friday and I can fuck off the next couple of days, but also I am resentful for the fact that I feel almost like it's swimming, I'm just holding my breath and trying to go forward 4 of the 7 days of the week so I'm allowed to breathe on the other three.

Semi-related to my earlier rant about Nintendo's GKCs, I have accidentally discovered that one of my favorite 3DS games has been re-released as a Switch game. It's... an incredibly addictive solitaire game that is ALSO, somehow, about horse racing and breeding. And it's made by Game Freak (the […]

I think it would be really funny to prank a demon by letting them temporarily posses my body (for as long as they could stand it). "MWAHAHA HA HA YES I finally have physical form ag- wait, why does it feel like my bones are covered in sandpaper? What... what the fuck is wrong with this guy?" […]

Are there any #anime you are aware of that are still doing the full year season, a full 50ish episodes in a year? I'm just curious if there are any unsung heroes just cranking out episodes like there's no tomorrow. There used to be a ton of those every year, but I am genuinely surprised when a […]
