Guy who yells at vegan recipes online suddenly gives a shit about animal welfare when the restaurant says the meat is halal

Is there an argument for keeping rhystic study unbanned other than "I own one and I win most games when I play it"? Is there a "it's good for the format" argument? A "it makes games more fun" argument?

Black Keys aren't playing Toronto on their next tour, but they are playing Casino Niagara and Caesar's Windsor. Checks out. (Derogatory)

That Wall Street Journal rotisserie chicken thing ain't talking about $7 Costco chickens, it's talking about $50 chickens from erewhon. 😮‍💨

I feel like a lot of finance talk gets sidetracked by assuming homeownership is the only goal of saving money. Retirement. Vacation. Car. Cool hobby thing. All valid reasons to save. "I'll never own a home, so might as well..." Just misses the point.

I think parents should parent their children instead of everyone handing over their photo ID to discord, but what do I know.

That's my name don't wear it out

Went sledding last night and someone built a ramp at the bottom of the hill that's impossible to see from the top of the hill so I did a full send into it and got like 5 feet of air and came right down on my ass. Taking it slow today.

I hate AWS

Playing some Ball x Pit On the Toi x Let

Ball x The Pitt

Ghost of Yotei is 95% really good and then the last bit is AWFUL haha. Like it's overall very good, 5 stars etc, but the coin flicking game sucks and the (thankfully optional) fight with Takezo is just complete horse shit.

Couscous, cara cara oranges, huli huli chicken. Other examples of food with a repetitive name?

Bless archive.org they got a bazillion high quality godspeed you black Emperor bootlegs to listen to 😌

People are paying like $10+ a month for those stupid smart doorbells???

I hate how phones, computers etc update themselves to needlessly remove useful functions. If you hold the home button on Android, you can draw a circle around stuff to highlight it and do a visual search. You could also share the highlighted area as an image. Worked like the windows snipping tool

The Lion does not concern himself with how much grey hair was on the floor at the end of his haircut

Anyway. Ball X Pit is so compelling and trickles out exciting upgrades that change how the game is played in really interesting ways. Some things "suck" but I love that it just tries stuff.

I don't think there's any specific issues with leftists or centrists, I think a lot of people are just profoundly dumb and angry.

Some people are looking to do little more than yell on the computer, but they want to feel like that's enough

There's a really annoying type of person who doesn't want to do anything about something but gets upset when others do, because it makes them feel bad. And rather than confront the notion that they may not be the "organizer" they think they are, they tear down people doing the work they won't do

Gambled and lost on gas prices. Balked at $1.19/l Drove past $1.24/l Filled up for $1.31/l Oh well

Email from chronometer... I sure hope someone was fired for THAT blunder!

Is everyone who's even remotely famous a pedophile? "Everyone" is in the files. Well past the point of plausible deniability.

Ball x Pit is pretty cool, ngl. Really enjoying the steam deck, too. I totally get all the "dude, just get a steam deck" videos on YouTube. So far it feels like all the benefits of a console and all the benefits of a PC in one place.

January music

The Will Stancil opsec stuff is so embarrassing. You're going up against the government, they already know who you are lol. But I'm sure less visibility into what's going on will keep Minnesota in people's hearts and minds.

Turning the stereo system up enough that the neighbours know I'm watching the two towers

Rest in peace frog mug. 😭

I try not to form parasocial relationships (the podcast guy ain't my friend!) but it's hard not to when you see some really dumb shit on Instagram and it's liked by a band account lol. He's just like me, frfr.

Aita - I don't put test notes on bug fixes with clear repro steps and expectations.

Thinking of the time a co-worker looked up John Mayer tickets on Ticketmaster and wound up taking a girl to a Dead And Company show not knowing what it was

I haven't played it, I don't even like the genre, but the high guard hate feels really forced in a pretty crummy way.

I hate the coin flicking game from ghost of Yotei so much. You mess up once and just get to watch your opponent score 6 points in a row. It sucks.

"just following orders" doesn't work if you're just a 'grunt' but how are you trying that as Secretary of Homeland Security? How do you lead an entire department and act like you have no say? Lol

Layoffs at work. I survived but my team was hit pretty hard. Can't help but feel like a bullet whizzed past my head every time this happens.

They should make savoury flavours of metamucil.

What does the path to peace in Minneapolis look like?

The Internet loves to be ignorant germophobes. The obsession with gloves in food service is one thing (gloves aren't inherently cleaner than bare hands...) But I just saw a bunch of people say bar soap on skin is gross. It's literally made of soap wdym...

The problem with "all" software being made in California is no one considers "what if the temperature is negative double digits?" This widget is both sparse and crowded

All the little $10 upgrades for Switch 2 really don't feel great.

Every game takes 150 years to make. Ubisoft can't even remake a game they used to make yearly 20 years ago. What's going on in game development?

Duolingo will be like "do this lesson for 20xp" and then you start the lesson and it gives you 3x XP. And then at the end it's like "ok so that's 15 x 3, 45Xp" All this extra stuff and it doesn't even work right or matter. Lol

*listening to Dogs by Pink Floyd* *Any time it gets quiet* "WHO WAS B- wrong part" "WHO WAS- not yet" "WHO WAS BO- gotta wait" "WHO WAS BORN IN A HOUSE FULL OF PAIN?!"

My wife loves to leave the room, go to a different floor and then start talking to me. I'm loading up the washer while the dryer is running, I'd have a hard time hearing if we're in the same room.

Easy to despise the Democrats just as much as the Republicans at this point. Greenland isn't too expensive, it's not for sale. Disgusting to frame this as a budget issue.

I gotta say "(blank)y mc(blank)face" wasn't funny the first time but 10 years later it's so horrendously unfunny I wish it could be erased from our collective memory. (My city has a vote to name the new snow plows and Plowy McPlowface is one of the options)
