“227: Posting Sucks Now” by Anime Sickos Podcast

i refuse to exist in a world where i have any opinions at all about animal crossing mods

in absolutely tragic post-vacation news I easily remembered all my work passwords and will not need to wait on IT to reset them

reminded bitterly of the profitable, reasonably-staffed studio I worked at that cratered less than a year after pivoting to going all-in on this shit

walking into my canadian office job this morning as the only american, grimacing and mouthing "sorry, sorry, ah jeez" like I'm walking into a movie 20 minutes late

this is your mission. our pedophile president needs you to jump out of a helicopter to kidnap a head of state and his wife so some oil ceos can make a lot of money. we’ll be watching from a resort in florida that still serves wedge salad and checking how many retweets we get. good luck soldier

saw a young woman at the crowded airport using her laptop with over-the-ear headphones and I guess she got bored because she pulled out her phone to start watching tiktok extremely loudly, presumably because otherwise she wouldn't be able to hear them through the headphones she was still wearing

Could an empire in decline do THIS? *launches deeply unpopular invasion cementing status as lunatic-led pariah state, its not clear what kind of move i was trying to do*

I was up all night due to travel so to catch up everyone just joining us: wuh oh

lately I have been living my life as if it's around 400 AD: the hegemonic empire that dominated my possibility space for most of my life is in an unarrestable and active decline, and I'm not gonna bother factoring its potential recovery and ability to find and hurt me at a distance into my anxieties

the thing about the focus M video is I want it to keep going... I want him to collect the red coins and get an upgrade back at the base... more repartee...

the other day my little sister (fully grown person, in law school) said of something that was kind of a bummer "this isn't very holly jolly" and I felt my heart break into one thousand pieces

I love watching movies with my family, love watching those movies again years later and remembering the things they said. every time I watch return of the king I remember my mom saying "but the tree knows" when the white tree flowers at what seems to be gondor's darkest hour. and she was so right

whenever a conservative says like “i won’t apologize for being white” i’m kind of like where were you hanging out that people were asking that of you

oh brother, another bad post from political influencer beltway brian. i am furious at beltway brian all of the time. i share screencaps of beltway brian's posts with people who have no idea who he is. i hate all of beltway brian's posts and i read all of them every single day, including weekends

avatar this avatar that how about you 'ave-a-targeted look at what you could be doing to make her more happy at this time of year 😤

thing I can't get out of my head from a couple years back was my late-teens cousin explaining how he had gotten his girlfriend to sign up for a sports betting app so he could get $50 to bet with in the app as a referral bonus

I'm so glad you asked

I can't carry it for you but I can fuck you

dads love watching 40 minutes of a movie standing in the doorway like 📺🛋️🚪🧍‍♂️

big influx of new people so I'm retweeting this again. shameless? certainly. and yet it performs a public service by getting more people to follow me and see my extremely good posts

most cutting thing you can say is "who's this clown?" because it implies they're a) a clown & b) not even one of the better-known clowns

dad's sportin a light-up christmas fedora called him Walter Light from Blinking Bad

playing Golden Sun for the first time since it and the sequel ate my life for a couple different summers in my tween/teens but I'm running up against the serious issue that always bounced me off a replay: the very long, dialogue-heavy intro, all in that JRPG move-pause-emote-pause-dialogue blocking

Gruber’s heist team runs like a corporation (“who said we were terrorists?”): suit-wearing CEO Hans, a layer of specialist technicians, a layer of gruntwork guys the sickly thrill of the violence to workers (literally hostages here) done by bland corporate maneuvers made actual with real blood

You can still order yours and we'll ship it out sometime in the next week! Holiday hours are a little spotty but generally if you order before 9am CT we'll ship the order out same day. feetlegal.com

hey folks it's the final day of our subathon!!!! we've made great progress in paying off my kitty's vet bills and i hope you'll join me for our last stream before the new year twitch.tv/strongbadegirl

60 minutes going the way of cracked and avclub

pretty ideal time to see baddies playing games and raise money for cats who need it!! do unto others in this, the Season of Doing That

it's so goofy to believe making software that mimics human thought is related in any meaningful way to making software that thinks. building the most amazing lifelike animatronic horse the world ever saw does not represent progress if your goal is to create a real horse. huge waste of time actually

come hang out with tess! she adopted a pregnant cat off the street this year (hero) and is raising money for vet bills. will YOU be one of the viewers that saves christmas?

arrived at the airport a mere 130 minutes before boarding starts... getting reckless!!

the thing about "AI" "agents" is a depressing number of people move through the world as if they are the only real person in it. when they "talk to" these chatbots they don't notice the shallowness because that's as far as they ever plumb anyway. the obvious if:then shadowplay fools them completely

i'm gonna be real I did kinda lose faith in games journalism as a force of change when after months of articles about the brutal crunch on red dead redemption two, those same publications turned around and covered the game as a masterpiece, a triumph, a new high water mark for the industry, etc

not for nothing, but my main mental association with this piece of promotional art is people defending using AI, and I don't really see that changing anytime soon

Keep going. Be meaner. Aim whatever lizard-brain impulse you have towards cruelty and violence in this direction.

ok fuck me up bryan

have you considered that for some people this specific fire is the one burning down their livelihood and a lot of those people are on this app

doing pretty ok lately, has a job that takes an entire minute to explain

the big disappointing games news of the day has made me feel slightly better about a couple past "4 hour writing tests."* like OK, you just don't know what good looks like. bullet dodged tbh *no one I have talked to spent less than a week on one of these

it's so funny that somebody made a dating app to pair dominant women with submissive men and then discovered there are just way, way more of the second than the first. like dang are you sure. are you absolutely positive. check again. who could've possibly predicted this. this is completely new info

one thing they don't tell you about living somewhere cold is how physically exhausting it is just to exist. frigid cold winter in nova scotia is just as bad as 100% humidity and 110F in georgia. homeostasis: the only game in town

erika kirk trying to turn herself into jackie kennedy but forgetting that jackie pretty much withdrew from public life following her husband's death to mourn in private, due to not being a demonhearted pageant girl from arizona

the true sunday miracle, the King's Feast

one more week of work before my first non-unemployed vacation since 2022. unemployed "vacation" didn't really count. the clock still ticks, cage still lowering into the water, the willpower it takes to temporarily ignore it is so draining. best you get is "no point applying/checking email right now"
