I’m working my way through the book. The writing isn’t the best, but it’s definitely an interesting story.

Yup.

Kinkade was a no-talent ass clown, like the people who use AI to produce works of “art”.

I would suggest trying Caveblazers, as it’s similar, but it’s more barebones and (I think) significantly harder.

It’s wild how good the cheap games are these days. I’m 30 hours into playing Noita, have hundreds of hours in Vampire Survivor.

And I got about 15 hours into Dragon Age: Veilguard before it occurred to me I could crack open the Dragon Age Origins Ultimate Edition and actually have an enjoyable experience.

Agreed.

I think that’s part of the appeal: the ingrained superiority Christians feel.

Good.

I’m not rooting for America to fail, but I’m 100% rooting for Elon to fail.

I am very glad that Elon and Trump have overreached and now Tesla is suffering. I hope Starlink is the next domino to fall.

At least here in the US, a person’s zip code of birth is a huge indicator of their success and life trajectory. That, to me, would seem to indicate that free will is bullshit.

Yup.

The teachings of Christianity don’t make any fucking sense. (Unless you’re willing to gaslight yourself for a lifetime.)

Good.

Fuck Sam Altman’s greed. Pay the fucking artists you’re robbing.

This pleases me.

I’ve honestly never heard of this. Could you link me to an article or something that I could read to learn more?

No excuse has been inane enough to dismay Democratic partisans.

Agreed, partisans in the US are very culty.

It’s odd to write this sentence, but it’s observably true: Both sides nominated an old man in clear, public cognitive decline in the last election. They all just ignored it and made excuses, but our eyes work, and we saw it. It’s wild that lacking a brain that works is no longer a dealbreaker for the vast majority of Americans.

This is the way.

They were probably getting some extra exercise. For some people, just increasing light activity is their opening strategy for getting fit.

All the more reason to stop voting Democrat and pull the lever for the Green candidate instead.

This is the way.

Richard Nixon was great at weaponizing taxes against windfall profits to the benefit of the people. Also, if I recall correctly, this sort of taxation is partly why the US prospered so much from the 40’s to the 60’s.

Not interested. The folks on Blue sky can keep their corporate social media.
