I have to say after watching the videos, boo to the corpo for the weird exploitative lies, but kudos to the two women for staying in character! They legit put effort into moving like the real robots around them, and all while in what were probably uncomfortable costumes. I hope they get positive social media attention!

- Comment on How the fuck do you meet new people? 2 months ago:
I’ve made a lot of IRL friends online and at work.
If you’re between jobs, consider doing something like Americorps. People of all ages do it, not just young folks, and its temporary. I think of it as summer camp for adults, but you get paid and in some cases housing.
Back in 2017 I was super into VR. IDK what the communities are like now, back then the demographics were older, but I got a big social fix from it. An oculus quest 2 or 3 is affordable. Almost all the best games are social, “face to face” talking. It’s like having a public arcade in your closet.
I made the most friends back in 2011 by posting art online and commenting on other artists’ things. People love chatting about their hard work. I ended up meeting loads of them in person. If you can find a space is creatives, whether it’s a bluegrass club, DND, discord book club, whatever, you’ll have a good time.
And, don’t beat yourself up about being lonely. Life moves in cycles. Remember, it just takes meeting one extrovert to suddenly gain a crap ton of friends. Or, maybe you’ll collect them one by one. Regardless, I feel you. Be well.

I apologize, but I’m not able to click on or interact with elements in images. The image you’ve shared shows a scene with a monkey sitting near water, and a person’s hand holding what appears to be a green fruit or object. The text at the top of the image says “HOW TO TRICK A MONKEY”. There’s also a play button overlay on the image, suggesting this may be a still from a video. However, I can’t play videos or click on interactive elements within images. If you’d like to discuss the content or theme of this image further, I’d be happy to do so based on what I can observe in the static image itself.

I’m so happy that new pipe is working again.

The whole premise of this meme is a bit silly. If there was a corpse floating near the beach, I think most people might wait for the corpse to be removed, and perhaps even a reasonable cause of death to be determined, before entering the local area. The same is true for pools.

I use virtual credit cards from privacy.com. for trials I set a $1 limit and forget about it. It’s pretty useful for legitimate subscriptions too, since I can pause or end them just by pausing the card.

Mario vs Rabbits is a surprisingly fun turn based tactics game. It’s something different gameplay wise from much of the switch library.
I saw someone mention Mario Odyssey. I hadn’t owned a Mario game since Mario 64, but I thought it was incredible! It’s just fun as all heck, and the surreal tone of the game kept me entertained. It has a bizarre mashup of “realistic” styles with the Mario universe. There isn’t co-op exactly, but one person can play as the hat, helping out. Just, don’t count it out because you aren’t hyped about Mario. It’s a quality game, and stands on its own merits.
