For real, this guy turned my bro bi. He’s got an aura about him.

Any time someone says Vin Diesel isn’t a good actor I point to this. Say what you will about his preference and type casting, no one else can make you cry by saying “me Superman.”

They were recently sold to some middle eastern investment fund that plans to use it for data scraping. Would not be hard for them to make it public…

This is a litmus test for true punk. If they get offended they’re a poser.

My parents took this approach with the idea that if I’m capable enough to circumvent a barrier, I’m probably capable enough to not need it. It’s an ideal I championed for a long time until I developed enough of a mind to understand that this approach is what gave me the confidence to go out and get molested when I started getting curious about sex.

This guy and sprong.
I got a sprong post on my birthday some years back, it was the only thing I got that year, even from myself, and it meant the world to me.

I made my own skin back in highschool based off of a pirate skeleton and a Thuamcraft skin that were pretty popular on planet minecraft. I’ve been running as that thaum lich as long as I’ve been using Postmortal_Pop. Arguably those are more lasting an identity than my real name and body.
I wouldn’t mind being that dusty old lich.

Can it be the exact play through? My family and I are playing through the Pokémon series from 1-7 on hacked ds’. We’re doing a sort of meta thing there we can carry Pokemon we beat the game with between games, we just have to reset their level each time. We can also pick any Pokemon as a starter, and if we bring 10 Pokemon of the type we like and 10 with move we want, we can cheat a move.
I just made my childhood proud by finally beating Pokemon blue with ghastly/haunter/gengar as my starter. She got to learn payday along the way.

It’s finding one of the machines that’s the issue. I haven’t had the chance to get my hands on one that’s working and affordable.

This is my right. It’d be pretty simple to install a small ring of IR LED around your plate and wire them into the car lights and a back up battery in the trunk. Basically keep it glowing 24/7. Probably like, 30 bucks in hardware from Ali to start from scratch.
Kind of wonder what it’d be like to frame he whole car in it. Like a ghostly kia soul.

In the aughts, my first introduction to bondage was an unlabeled dvd I found on the side of the road.
Wasn’t even the first time I’d found porn that way.

Just because you can’t lift the couch doesn’t mean you can’t help. Someone has to pick up the beer, someone has to drive the truck. Someone needs to hold the doors while they carry it in, someone needs to know a guy who can help, the list of things goes on for miles.

Yeah, I’m done with superheros that aren’t animated but this is a plot I can get behind.

This is exactly what I needed to feel lately, thank you.
- Comment on AI Slop 3 weeks ago:
So I’ve heard this mentioned by my kid as he complained about the kids in his class, but I never really looked into it.
This is exactly what AI should have been. It should have been a new vector for people to create dumb and ridiculous things, not the brain of our government, not the death of our job market, not a child porn factory, just a neat way to make things that look just a little weird to become the seed of a new genre.
In the early days of stable diffusion, I tried to use it to make a coloring book, using the dumb and inaccurate ways it went about things on purpose to parody the people trying to hide their AI use and the companies that crank out tons and tons of uninspired graphics or stolen work to make money on people wanting to color without thinking. I was going to make a whole series of bad AI coloring books filled with dumb hybrid animals and anothonically fucked up superheros, a curated collection so we could point at the novelty and laugh at the absurdity of a computer making a superhero who’s only power is having a 3rd arm on their crotch. Instead I scrapped the whole thing and deleted the material and program. I had concerns about the child superheros coming out too sexualized and before I could figure out how to stop it, AI became the devil of our time.
So much fun dies to capitalism.

I have a pet theory, I’m not a sociologist or anthropologist or historian so I don’t know enough to claim it valid. I feel that Europe did to the world what Dark Souls did to gaming.
Here’s this tiny section of the world, the weather is awful most of the year, the ground is barely fit for food and the only reliably edible plants are just variations of mustard. The wildlife is awful, wolves can drag off grown men, boars take whole parties to hunt, rats will eat and poison an entire grainhouse over night. Every few years a new power rolls in to wreck the place, if it’s not people it’s diseases, if it’s not diseases it’s climate shifts. Everyone lives in shit hovels relying on next to no nutrients, without enough to feed everyone, crammed in together with farm animals and listening to every other member of their family fucking as they’re trying to sleep. And they persist like that for longer than recorded time.
That’s life on the hardest possible difficult for generations. So when they finally scrape together enough to get out of there they find out that every single other civilization was living in literal verdant utopias. They respond the same exact way a diehard Dark souls fan does, everyone else needs to git gud and get learned up because how the fuck are these Stardew players surviving without an 800 page manual on stats? Europeans literally couldn’t comprehend the idea of a forest that gives you unlimited food because all of their forests eat your fucking chicken just to laugh at your suffering. Living without defined boundaries? How do you stop your neighbor from taking all your grain and leaving you to starve to death in the winter? Picking up your whole community to follow buffalo? Are you insane?! There’s probably a group of bandits right over the hill waiting to gut you for everything you own! Put your big hairy cows in a paddock so they aren’t stolen too! Europe had to make use of every square inch of land to survive, they couldnt fathom the idea of so much land that you’ll never need to see another human again without choosing to. And the hording, lifetimes of eating the same dozen plants and never having enough for everyone to be full, winters that kill you if you don’t spend every second farming to survive it. Land so scarce you have to kill for it.
All of this ignores the social aspects of this mindset becoming a political system. Now several hundred years later, we still have to deal with it because generically we’re the equivalent of dogs scarfint down anything they see because they get used to not being fed regularly. Of course they’re going to be vastly over powered and over equipped compared to a world of people playing on a sane and reasonable difficulty level.
- Comment on I didn't realize masala, was spicy 5 weeks ago:
Yo, south central Kansas here. Take a look for don’t buy at big box stores, next time you’re anywhere with a population of +10k look for Asian markets or Hispanic markets, if you’re extra lucky you may find middleastern or Indian grocers. You can get all the stuff you from one of those for comparable prices to most big stores. I buy everything but garlic there now because it’s cheaper and often stronger.
I personally suggest starting with the snack isle, look for the the Dragonfly brand chips and take a gamble on any of the fat cakes. After that, give yellow or massaman curry a try. It’s Thai, not Indian, but it has a similar profile. Shoot me a DM and I’ll give you a recipe and literally walk you through making it if you need.
I’m a strong supporter of the value of American culinary culture, we do actually have some amazing recipes, but we’ve all been absolutely shafted by the ubiquity of it. Everyone deserves a chance to experience the madcap world that is food.

You gotta remember, despite everything we say, everything we’ve written, the laws in place, the rapidly growing atheism, the US is a theocracy first and foremost. The religion is just as important as the economy, employment rate, or the opinions of the ruling class.
