Look at this cute ass photo of me my wife took

Look at this silly shit I made (the shifter boot, other things were bought)

Fit check

My unpopular opinion is that Expedition 33 started incredibly strong and then fizzled out, with the twist between acts II and III making the whole thing instantly retroactively worse because it turned an intriguing mysterious puzzling story into something boring and overdone.

Why can’t I keep playing as a cool lady? I liked control for letting me play a cool lady, among other things. I don’t like playing as a boring dude, I had been a boring dude for many years and I don’t need that shit in my video games

Kristen Stewart says she is "open" to a twilight sequel "As long as Edward transitions" (Source: tinyurl.com/bdkb78aj)

Playing Dispatch. As much as I don’t like playing games with a male protagonists there are exceptions, and I guess the protagonist being played by aaron paul is one of them

There’s a billboard I can see from my window advertising a black friday sale on apartments. The real estate developer does a black friday sale. Is that normal, because I feel very weird about it

Reading Andy Weir’s Project Hail Mary and dear fuck is this book annoying. Setting aside politics, which it has plenty even though it feels unintentional, it suffers from overexplaining fucking everything and has absolutely insufferable Neil deGrasse Tyson energy

Being a grownup fucking rocks

Tacky? Maybe. Do I love it? Fuck yeah Now just to figure out how to affix the LED strips inside because no tape so far wants to stay glued to the cabin elements for some goddamn reason and I don’t wanna just superglue them on

I am an ai hater, istfg. Getting basic info about mamy subjects on the internet used to be almost trivially easy. Now? Whatever question I ask I get directed towards a SEO optimized article created by an ai that doesn’t answer the question or answers it wrong.

Our new old car, the Impreza, got back from a checkup at the mechanic (all the important stuff is healthy and it’s not rusted through, yay! Which is good because lots of smaller stuff cost us enough). And we did a little joyride. Which was a lot of joy! How did I become a car girl suddenly, wtf

I was at the doctor for getting a medical clearance for riding a motorcycle. The ancient lady was extremely excited to see a second in her career woman who cannot read Ishihara charts for colourblindness. I can see the lights no problem, so I didn’t stop her from feeling happy for ten minutes

My lil bro is a huge soulsborne fan, doing all those crazy challenge runs and the like. So when he told me silksong is ridiculously hard in a way that’s not really fun I kinda gave up on the game, because I’m old and bad at games. But hey, Hades II is out of early access so I feel consoled

Look, I was never into cars. As a dude I hated them, I knew nothing about them. I spent a decade without a car in the city. So what’s up with me giggling and kicking my feet like a schoolgirl after my wife and I just bought a 2005 subaru impreza

I was on the train to a town two hours away to see a car I was prepared to buy when the seller cancelled because he suddenly remembered he has a work trip, which he texted me and then didn’t pick up the phone. Dudes, istfg

Free speech, legalize comedy, personal freedoms threatened by big govt, religious freedom - all of these are values the right professes but doesn’t really believe in. They don’t have values. It’s an inherently selfish, solipsistic ideology. Pointing out hypocrisy doesn’t work, they don’t care

A lady who came in for neurolgical examination told me my voice would be great for reading smutty audiobooks. Guess here goes whatever little motivation I had for voice training

I considered writing a long carefully constructed argument laying out the harms and limitations of AI, but instead I wrote about being a hater. Only humans can be haters.

When I was watching ST: TNG my wife was playing video games and was listening in, regularly asking me for clarification about what’s goin on. So Picard became The Bald One and Riker - The Beard One. You can imagine the confusion when come season 4 of DS9 Sisko shaved his head and grew a beard

I fell into a rabbit hole of the motorcycle instagram and it reignited my buried craving that I’ve had since I was a kid. I’m gonna wait till spring to see of I’m still want to get a bike license, but hey, I am now old and there’s no real adults around to stop me, so…

Before I transitioned I had a bespoke flannel suit with trousers like that, it was my favorite. One thing I sometimes miss about being a dude is those clothes. But I can live without them, and could not live with everything else

I’m rereading Watts’ Rifters trilogy, just finished Starfish. I do still like it, I like Watts’ prose, the oppressive and claustrophobic vibe, the technical jargon, so many cool ideas… But it is very edgy, especially with its depictions of sexual violence, and I don’t enjoy that.

BALTEUS down on a first try babeeeeey I’m enjoying Armored Core VI

God forbid an oppressed minority dares utter terrible and contemptible incitements of violence along the lines of “I don’t particularly like the person bankrolling a fight against us and I do not wish them well, quite the opposite in fact”. Safety of the platform users has been violated you see

Fuck yes there is Q in star trek DS9, I think I can keep watching it

Sitting at a windows pc at my work at an outpatient clinic or at my other windows pc in a neuro department office I share with other doctors and trying to imagine how the fuck would that work It won’t, that’s how

Wow Guardian thank you for responsible journalism about trans people. Imagine if this thing you’re writing about was also your fault, wouldn’t you look fucking stupid

Finishing my rewatch of ST TNG. Thing is I tried watching DS9 but without Patrick Stewart, the one Good Actor, it was hard. PS is like a gateway for me that let me get hooked enough to appreciate the whole thing.

Playing Armored Core VI, and I might be having the best time of all the FromSoft games so far (as in, not dying all the time). I’m at the very early stages, but: very fun gameplay for a Space Pinkerton Simulator

I’m gonna add that often discussions abt trans rights goes like this: Trans person: “there are studies showing XYZ repeatedly and with high confidence” Some twat: “well I don’t think it’s like that, and therefore we should curtail trans rights”

The trans panic is maddening, because trans people are expected to defend ourselves with logic science and any sign of emotion is a failure. And yet the anti-trans campaign is nothing but appeals to emotion unburdened by facts, precedent, or empathy.

Either I’ve grown up or tech really used to be cool and exciting in a way it’s not anymore. Say what you want about an iPod, it was a cool piece of consumer tech that was fun to use and good at its job and also pretty; all tech now is just more surveillance or using ai to break things that worked

Playing vr videogames at An Event

Gotta admit to some schadenfreude when various rich vcs and tech bros are starting to get worried about llms inducing literal psychotic episodes in ppl when it’s now happened to one of their own

So my wife found an anime that’s basically harry potter. Except the local harry equivalent is a magicless guy in a world where it’s essentially illegal to be magicless. That’s okay though, because instead of casting some silly spells he LIFTS, BRO and just punches whoever’s bad. It’s called Mashle

the science is “this is the single best set of interventions against teen and also adult suicide we have for affected populations”

I may be in a minority but getting to act III of clair obscur got me so mad I think I hate this game now. Strictly story-wise. I am Angry about it.

The AI as God thing really separates the actual antitheists from the posers. I will assemble friends and kill that computer as a service to our dignity as a species.

I put together such a killer outfit I can’t wait for dnd next weekend because I don’t leave home otherwise to show it off

I gave into the hype and started playing Clair Obscur. Problem is my gaming platform of choice is steam deck and they specifically optimized the game to run on it by making it look like absolute ass. I can disable the deck-specific settings and play on low, and it runs ok, looks much better…

As any reasonable serious adult person would, I named myself after my favorite cartoon character

My wife proposed we go on a hike up a mountain at night and see the sunrise from the summit. We just need to buy headlamps. But I didn’t want crappy ones that would fail us, and that’s how I’m now into a rabbit hole of flashlight reddit and I don’t know if my bank account can take it

I’m rewatching TNG right NOW, and there are two distinct moments when Riker laughs a moment before he finishes saying something witty and it’s either an adlib or incredibly good acting but either way I find it very cute

It’s very weird living at the outskirts Europe, within EU. We are a part of it, yes, but there’s a feeling we’re barely in, neoghbouring a war that’s been going on for years, far away from the US or UK, whose issues are all over my tl much more tho. So I feel them closer and more immediate.

I am so fucking bad at games what do you mean I got stuck at a miniboss battle in fucking deltarune are you kidding
