Jersey City robot standoff at the crosswalk

I’ve started to run across TikTok accounts that post all AI videos, usually with 2-3 seconds of some apps UI they’re sort of trying to advertise cut into the middle. While they look OK, they have clear AI tells and it drives me wild 99% of the comments don’t seem to notice. It’s kind of scary.

This is the best thanksgiving TikTok I’ve seen

I made salt bread filled with herb and garlic compound butter and basque cheesecake

Maybe this is me being the friend who is too woke but something about this description makes me cringe lmao

Can anyone explain to me the draw of suburbia? More of my friends and people I follow yearn for the suburb recently. Living in the middle of nowhere in rural areas is not for me, but I get it. I enjoy living in a dense city where I can have my privacy. Suburb seems like the worst of both.

Olive bred

I was playing Pokémon za on the plane and I have an alpha garbodor and the dude next to me was looking and went “what they got garbage bag Pokémon now!??”

Idk why but it really bothers me when all an incumbent’s campaign message is like 80% “the other person is inexperienced”. Like, tell me why your experience is any good???

Lately I’ve been procrastinating going to bed because if I sleep the morning comes faster.

I’m gonna say it! I like 五仁月饼 ! I’m Not ashamed !!!

Some one make a really long video essay on how that one remix of aquatic ambience from donkey Kong country became the theme for nostalgic / old content on TikTok or whatever

I got this TikTok where they get popcorn buckets and drink cups out of the trash and idk if I imagined but it I could have sworn I remember @danryckert.com saying he did this on a bombcast or game informer thing a million years ago.

This is my regular PSA to get pet insurance as soon as possible when you get a pet. Our claim from when our cat went to the emergency room and unfortunately had to leave us went through and we got $4.3k back and paid only a few hundred bucks for a year of coverage.

Silksong may be an interesting case study in how having no limits or deadline can create a worse product. I think the game is good but it has so much extraneous cruft you’d usually cut from a game and that stuff makes the final bit really less fun to play.

Maybe it’s a demand thing but in 2022 and 2023 my corpo job had vaccines for flu and covid in the biggest buildings with long lines if you didn’t make an appointment. 2024 had less people getting jabs but similar footprint. 2025? Way smaller buildings, less days, and I was the only one there.

I got this ad but what is it an ad for????

I got curious and watched young Sheldon and it’s actually good

Who the fuck is sharing their location on instagram for that map feature it seems like a weirdly high number of people

Matcha beer. It tastes exactly like matcha mixed with an IPA its weird (I like it)

I’ve been to a bazillion sporting events and concerts and other stuff with crowds and I’ve never heard a louder cheer than when Concerned Ape walked out at this Stardew Valley symphony

I got some TikToks about how more schools are making kids put their phones in those bags so you can’t access them. Th interesting thing is how so many kids and parents are sad, “we used to text each other all day” I must be a bad person cuz my reaction was “what kid texts their parents all day?”

Deadlock has such a good visual design like good job to whoever at valve is doing that great work 100%

It’s crazy to me solo leveling has literally the chimera ants but instead of being good and having tension it’s over in like 2 episodes with the mc effortlessly winning. Also no one has a power that’s based on compound interest which is a huge miss.

Liquid olives. They’re exactly what they are described to be. Kinda neat but I think we need to try out gaseous olives next

I’m old

YouTube randomly recced this and man this game was so good everyone play it youtu.be/2IWcMJtOoxQ?...

My instagram ads are getting wild

fighting games

Loll

I like how my company incentivizes people to walk or bike or take transit to the office, and part of that is they have people by the garage entrances whose job it is to stop people from blindly turning right into parking garages and running over a pedestrian or bike. America is such a cool place.

Rob has left us. His HCM had progressed and his kidneys weren’t holding up. After his first emergency room visit almost 2 years ago, being properly medicated, he became a whole new cat. More active, playful and far more cuddly. We’re grateful he could have even that time with us.

I watched the first episode of City the animation and it may be the most beautiful tv animation I’ve ever seen

I liked gundam gquuuux

I adored GQuuuuuuX. It’s dumb and a bit of a nostalgia bomb for olds like me but idk I had fun the whole time and popped off multiple times the last ep.

Two

I really like the end to the gq kojima interview

This rules. Play 1000xresist

I love food I love to eat

Gonna get dragged for this but GQuuuuuX is the best music we’ve had for a mainline Gundam series since Seed/Destiny. Rag on those two shows all you want but they have banger after banger in their OSTs. Every op song is amazing. I want to buy whoever picked wings of words as an op a beer.

I’ve never seen squid game but I just finished beast game. Is squid game good? Should I watch it? How many times to they pick random suitcases in squid games?

I like to make cookie

Deadlock has such good game feel I played it again yesterday and I can’t stop thinking about how fun it is to move in that game.

www.ft.com/content/6c4b... who could have foreseen this???

I had a theory before I’d actually seen any gquuuux but knew it was alternate UC shenanigans that the MC was young Haman and the boy was alternate paptimus. That’s obv wrong now but with fucking all the zeta happening in the last ep im just waiting for them to show up, somehow.

So “Amala Kamala” in the latest GquuuuuuX ep has to be an l-gain reference, right? I’m not crazy for hearing that and my brain immediately going to l-gain, right?

Expedition 33 has all the things that were in the old snes/ps1 era rpgs I liked: 1. Gradually getting more vehicles options, which opens up more of the map 2. Good soundtrack 3. Cool cutscenes 4. A world map 5. A goofy side character who takes the powers of enemies 6. Every character has a gimmick

The best candy and it ain’t close

I keep seeing people post Clair obscur videos in English and tbh I think the French vo has kind of a smarminess to it that English as a language just can’t reach. This isn’t about the voice actors or dub vs sub, it’s just that the game’s tone was made to be voiced in French. English can’t do it.
