  I’ve decreed this unit a condo. And it has been more than paid off. You can go now 👋

  They think they have a good union but they don’t.

  they just give you two pre-filled pouches with the paperwork.

  Les Schwab did the same thing with braces and tires; they’d just give you some small bits of wire and squares and tell you to figure it out. it was too good a deal to pass up at the time.

  unfortunately self-administering braces is harder than you’d think. I’ll never be able to eat like I used to 😔

  great tires tho

  If it’s steamed I’ll eat it all. Steam it like a good ham.

  “whatever you do, please don’t do what you did to give me my previous sister; sure she loved ponies and talked of ranches, but she also lived in great pain having her spine twisted 180 degrees and only being able to walk backwards. 😔 I still hear her screams in my darkest of dreams”

  With colon cancer stats these days, you can bring that number way down.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Website⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Likewise.

  Unfortunately everything else I learned was ethereal and went away, and I’ve got a learning disability that really doesn’t like it when a new system is slightly different than a previous system I’d learned.

  I was all in on .shtml (anything but php or css), Shockwave/Macromedia Director 7 and Bryce for graphics.

  I could never get back into it using the mainstream stuff.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Website⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I’d sooner use Frontpage.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Man posts his incorrect opinion online⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I do that too.

  They’re bright white Allbirds that would get too dirty too quickly if ever I wore them outside, so it’s a bit of a mental nudge for me to take them off and put on my outdoor shoes in case I forget to do so.

  …sidebar: how do I clean bright white fabric shoes? it’s bleach, right? I don’t know why I’m intimidated by the task.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨You can use them for either or both⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  too much work when b-hole’s right there

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Get that silicussy⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Hmm, normally I’d suggest substituting “prostitute” with “sex worker” in an effort to stress that it’s work and help get it legalized/normalized… but considering there is no work being done here… 🤷‍♂️

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨You can use them for either or both⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean I usually only ever need one for my recipes, so… unless you can think of a better use for ‘em… zip, bang, right up my b-hole.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I feel very vulnerable to a good city builder game rn. Anno was the last one to really hook me in.

  This looks more about production and automation, but miiiiight scratch the itch.

  …I’m also vulnerable to an MMO, so… whichever comes first will likely sweep me away for years.

  Has the heel ever gone right to left? It’s only been the other way afaik 😔

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨We really don't want to talk about our problems⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I watch some trash reality TV and always find it kind of funny how contestants spend a long amount of time internalizing the stress of the situation the show they agreed to be on is putting on them.

  Half of Love Island is “Why did you kiss them?” “Why did you go on a date with that person?” “Why did you break up with me?” Guys it’s a SHOW. The SHOW is making you go through these completely unnatural circumstances!

  And then I think about real life and it’s like “why don’t I have energy? why am I so depressed? why can’t I be more productive?” …guys it’s CAPITALISM/SOCIETY. SOCIETY is making you go through these completely unnatural circumstances!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨You can now search for Steam games by adjustable difficulty, mouse-only options and other accessibility tags⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s the one.

  Aside from that I sort by release date and check back every now and then.

  I just now noticed they had a toggle for ‘Released,’ so I don’t have to see a bunch of TBD games. I’m just gonna start doing what you’re doing and keep an eye on the list once in a while. Thank you for the tip!

  I wish they’d expand on it and have a filter for player count in co-op. I have a game group of five and finding co-op, 5 player games is hard/most of them cap at 4.

  The ones that don’t cap at 4 and aren’t requiring high dexterity (i.e. fps) are base building survival games all the way down— which are fine for the most part, don’t get me wrong, I just wish we could find something with the production quality and premise of Outlast Trials.

  So far we’ve done: Conan Exiles, The Forest (1 & 2), Astroneer, Core Keeper, Return to Moria, Green Hell (may have been before we were at 4), Demonic, Deep Rock (with a 5 player mod), and a little REPO (which was good, but no progression system yet). I wanted to try Barotrauma but the puppet movement’s a bit janky for me.

  I know there’s a third party search engine I can use, but it’s sooo full of junk it’s hard to find anything worthwhile.

  What’s everyone’s favorite F13 movie?

  I think the first one is kinda boring and more of a vibes movie; good background noise, but not worth your full attention.

  My fave is part 6 when it really leaned into the silliness and fun of itself (and it inspired Scream).

  I’ll always have a soft spot for part 3’s music tho.
