Welp, I didn't get the job with the too long commute either. It's not like I wanted to work specifically that far, but I certainly want to have work. The current shorter gig lasts until the end of the week and then the whole next year is a big question mark.

People have not run out of good ideas. Techbros have. And certainly a machine that only steals the ideas of other people is not a way to have more of them.

AI has actively made life worse for literally everyone - tech is now more expensive - you cannot trust most media of reality anymore - programs barely function - energy prices - literal psychosis - your voice can be literally stolen for evil - more spyware but hey, you can avoid paying an artist.

I do not have the words needed to describe how much I hate our current government and how thoroughly embarrassed I am by those absolute village idiots representing Finland to the world.

WHAAT? Apparently Ichiko Aoba is playing in Helsinki in March! I'm buying a ticket immediately! www.youtube.com/watch?v=A9Po...

Ponta fell asleep in the middle of the movie

Guys! I played darts and somehow magically I wasn't completely shitty at it! I threw the darts twelve times and never missed the board!

It's Saturday and I was out so I stopped by my favorite craft beer spot and tasted an American strong ale that was 13.7%. Rackhouse Reserve by Alesong Brewery. It's... too boozy. I believe it's barrel aged and infused with Bourbon, and that's all I can taste, not the ale itself.

The annual Christmas market!

Today's beer is a porter that's apparently the 180th anniversary porter for an English brewery! It was sold in a fancy box and I couldn't resist. It's an excellent porter that tastes like liquid rye bread and relaxes you perfectly at the end of a work week.

Time to play The Old Peace update for Warframe, with a perfect timing, as I just finished catching up with everything I wanted to a week or so ago!

Part of me wants to have excitement for the next Diablo 4 expansion pack, but I absolutely hated how the first expansion they sold ended in the middle of its story and you had to wait until the next one, the one that's now upcoming, to actually even encounter what they were teasing for the first one

There's some sort of a shining orb up in the sky! Is this a UFO?

SUN! THERE'S SUN OUTSIDE! IT'S BEEN SO LONG

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 crushing it at the Game Awards sure was not a surprise. Very deserved.

A new proper single player Star Wars the Old Republic game? I'M INTERESTED

I'm now an air fryer owner! It looks like it made frozen gyoza super crispy at least!

I arrived at work and these two post-it notes were on the floor of a hallway. Oh no. It has spread here.

Oh no, Warframe had a visual upgrade to your Drifter and Operator, but the automatic conversion to the new system was horrible and now my Drifter looks like a random cool lesbian auntie. The Operator upgrade was a little better, but that hair now still looks like a random Karen.

I made mapo tofu!

I genuinely without any exaggeration haven't seen any sun in over two weeks. Not even a glimpse. Oh god I wish it was at least snowy.

I made soup

I really hate that I can't justify watching Eurovision to myself anymore. It became such a nice tradition five years ago with my now wife, but I can't exactly watch it when I strongly strongly believe that Finland should have had the backbone to drop out! Even Spain did!

On the way to a job interview!

What

Apparently the next Honkai Star Rail planet/4.x series of updates was going to feature a Japan-themed planet and story, but due to the China being a dick and the tensions between Japan and China getting worse, they are suddenly scrapping all of that with only a 2 week delay before 4.0.

BOOKDEPOSITORY.COM DOESN'T EXIST ANYMORE? WHAT THE HELL????

My grandfather is talking about waiting for the grim reaper to come to get him, my mum is trying to reassure him that it's not coming any time soon, and my grandmother jokes that these days the grim reaper might come very quickly with an electric car 😇

To be fair to Ringo, he started to use the stage name before he ever joined The Beatles.

This is going to be the most depressing winter with absolutely no snow at all isn't it?

FIFA Peace Prize 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I overheard the Pentatonix cover of Hallelujah and yeah, I have definitely become one of those people who get annoyed by the Hallelujah covers that unnecessarily change the last note of the chorus vocal melody just to belt it and show off technical talent. It's just a worse melody that way.

Weekend!

What if I don't want them? Can I have a storage plan without garbage? I'm happy to pay for storage space, just the storage space, I don't even want to think of my money buying brainrotting cancer.

Some students randomly came to me to ask if I had seen Vinland Saga, and they were very excited to find out I had seen both seasons. I have never given them any reason to assume I might like anime or other Japan-related things, so this was completely out of the blue????

There's another substitute teacher here at this school and we were talking about how short term substitute teachers struggle with lack of authority in the classroom. He told me that one time students started calling him Minecraft Steve, and oh god that must be awful, he looks like Minecraft Steve!

We got an advent calendar for Ponta :)

I don't understand why anyone would buy an advent calendar weeks in advance. They are, every single year, 100% certain, going to be on a huge sale already a couple of days before December even starts!

I'm enjoying Silksong more than I expected! The way people were talking about it made the game sound a little intimidating, and I don't remember much about Hollow Knight, but I'm making very decent steady progress and having more fun than I expected!

So there's this classic Finnish rock band called Hurriganes and this is one of their biggest hits. www.youtube.com/watch?v=PeX5...

Thanks to yesterday's Scrandle, I'm now much more aware of Zsíros kenyér than I ever wanted to be

What a great headline

This weekend's beer is a... Finnish blueberry pie sour beer by a Scottish brewery? Sure!

What the hell my TV just randomly turned on out of nowhere when I'm home alone and scared the shit out of me

I read the words "release date" and "TOMORROW" and was severely misled.

It's the year 2025 and I have gotten addicted to the 2007 live action adaptation of Hana-Kimi on Netflix
