When has it not been true?.. my usamerican history is not great but all the republican presidents of my lifetime have been horrendous. Bush, bush 2, the current one. 🤷‍♀️ Non republicans only better by comparison…

Leland never realizing the producers were just invisibly throwing up their hands and thinking ‘that’s just what this guy sounds like…’

That’s what I thought until I tried it. Bought a game only to find out it was not for me. I’d bought it that day, played 30 mins, initiated refund. Steam denied refund, I think because I was on a VPN. $30 I won’t get back…

Less likely to buy stuff now without trying it first. Not like I have it to spare anymore these days 🤷‍♀️

Ship of Harkinian, the PC port/decomp of TLoZ:Ocarina of Time runs so much better than any emulator I’ve tried. I am fairly confident LLMs are used in the process but there’s a lot of care put into it. Added features for speed running, changing behavior to act as the n64, GameCube or 3ds versions etc.

I think those are great but ‘Skate 3 in Minecraft in CODMW2’ just seems pointless beyond video ‘content’ 🤢

My managers seeming plenty eroded rn 😅

Sorry for just pasting these, the band always post lyrics in wall of text format because that’s kind of how the vocals come off…

Thou - Death to the King and All His Loyal Subjects

Ascending through the hive of the ancients, crafting candles of ethereal dissent, we are the heirs and masters to the grey throne of melancholia. We are so very worthless, and everything we do is meaningless. Towering, gilded, white pedestals erected in supplication to these raise’ed demigods, detached and preening with conceit. We are so very worthless, and everything we do is meaningless. Everything we’ve ever done–everything we’ll ever do–is meaningless. Attend our needs. Servants, lie in debasement, sustained on the crumbs of pseudo intellect, dime store wisdom disguised as politico philosophy. The illusion of ideology. The imposition of precious ego. No room for opposition. One view rules all. One view ruins all. What was once a strength is now an affectation, a glamour cast over unsuspecting acolytes. But straddling mystery and candor leaves the bloody lips exposed. Reticence abandoned. Mythos dismantled. Blustering malcontents, so pedestrian, so very mundane. Childish bores talking and talking and talking in circles. Oh, you treacherous swine. Self entitled scum hiding in the fog of poverty, the veil of the oppressed. Self righteous ire. Self absorbed privilege. Self aggrandizing dribble. Tribulations contrived amidst vacillating abstraction reeking of guilt and greed. Fecund ambivalence from ostentatious parasites. Deluded vanity inextricably entwined. Instability, insecurity. Flagellants revealed. We are so very worthless, and everything we do is meaningless. Go now to the scourge pits to atone.

Kind of niche music (blackened sludge/doom metal) but Thou are pretty much my favorite band. These lyrics are in my head a lot. The disgust of the vocalist is a form of expression I would make if I had the ability. Cathartic, imo.

Maybe I’m privileged for thinking it’s common knowledge that gas stations basically make no money from selling gas. I don’t want to provide income to that industry - so I never go inside. Like the other poster I would just drive 1 minute to the next station and never return to one that demanded going inside the markup store…

I may be just among the poors but I don’t know a single millennial who can afford fair-trade, cruelty free, etc. clothing. Or really anything.

Thrifting enshittified a decade ago. Walmart has more affordable clothing than any thrift shop in my area 🤷‍♀️

We poors are certainly killing the planet - for fun.

Google enshittified long, long before llms were involved. To the point of making other search engines also mostly show online shopping links instead of whatever you searched. I’m surprised it found what OOP was looking for at all. Also why are they still supporting google?.. why am I commenting?

Nothing wrong with me at all. Just something excessively wrong with practically everything else. Even this post 👀

That’s election fraud.

They should use the neurons of the tech oligarchs if they’re so smart.

I save money on healthcare by spending 1/4 of my paycheck on health insurance and then absolutely never using it - hoping I cease existing if anything occurs.

You just have to put the emphasis on ‘never want to be in a situation’ and, I do not.

Cholegsterol, c’mon.

Forever.

It did. He went back to his country of origin rather than a concentration camp in a country he’s never been to.

At least 200 of the reported downloads are just me 😅

So the orange one paying to prevent wind farm construction is contributing to the workers? 🤔

Whom is way litter tho
