- Comment on a loose recreation of a dream ive had 2 days ago:
I had to recreate a dream I had in Snagit one time. It was about me, back in college, but I was part of a frat. I had to take care of the house’s dog. It was a brown scruffy looking thing, in the dingy basement of the house. He came up to me wanting pets. The whole back half of the dog was missing! Just spine and organs falling out the back. I’m sitting there trying to shove everything back in. He’s just happy, enjoying the attention. I was freaking out. Thankfully, I woke up. But the memory of Scruffy still sticks with me.

I have had Crohn’s for 22 years. I am now on medication that has it controlled, it’s wild. But I feel like I don’t have the bowel strength for formed poops anymore! It’s pretty exhausting going once a day. It’s a whole event. Like a sloth.
- Comment on Xbox as a platform is officially dead 1 week ago:
When the games stopped shipping completely on their physical media is when they lost me. So, I guess PS3. To me, a console should be a completely self-contained experience. You want a game? You buy it. It comes on a disc, or cartridge, or HuCard. Doesn’t need to download updates. Doesn’t require the internet. Just pop it in, and boot directly to a game. Immune to digital stores closing, or servers shutting down.
If I have to download 50gb when I bought a game on discord, what are the discs even for? And I would still have to worry about disk space? Man, I’d rather just have a PC.

Toothpaste, too. Gum. Sugar-free cough drops. Xylitol is crazy bad for them.

Oh gosh, i did that a couple years ago. We had some people leave, including my manager. I was a lead engineer. I was also leaving, I was promised a position at a 27% increase in salary. But it is a big, international company and their HR was painfully slow at getting me an offer letter. It ended up being 3 weeks from interview to offer. In that time, I just had to sit through several rounds of meetings with the COO, restructuring our group. I was a pivotal part of this plan. Finally, he had the plan finalized. And I got my letter. Handed in my two weeks the same day. No regrets. Love the new place.
Also, that COO wad not an insignificant factor in people leaving.

Take off my glasses. Put on my safety glasses. Don’t care if those break, the company paid for them.
- Comment on Games you fell out of love with. 4 weeks ago:
Nah. Once you have a good, strong base it turns into a cozy survival game. Make a fort, decorate it with skull lamps and nice furniture. Go out, kill some mutants and dry their limbs for dinner. Plant some blueberries.

The Forest. Man, I had a fantastic time in that game. Solo, and co-op. But after I beat it with a buddy, and we used the end-game artifact to create an excellent trap and base, it basically lost its appeal. The fun is in the struggle.
- Comment on Why do they turn Federation into a dystopia? 5 weeks ago:
If you pretend Star Trek stopped after First Contact, it’s a lot better. I really don’t understand why they keep trying to make new trek, or who is watching it. Who is it for? It’s too fast, too action-y. Too many camera angles. The writing and acting feels like teen drama. Where is the professionalism, the decorum, the reserved nature of Starfleet? And what little humor there should be, should be dry.

I’m not going outside in this weather. Especially if I have to put pants on. They should just send a second driver to pull my Arby’s out of the burning wreckage and finish the delivery without me having to tell them.

Wtf is that controller? Some kind of new-fangled wireless abomination? That’s not original hardware. And, since it is new, why did they put no effort into fixing the joystick? You’re just going to get a floppy dick stick in a few years with it anyway.

- Comment on Your teenager AND your husband 5 weeks ago:
I used to be dreadfully underweight before my Crohn’s was under control. I tried to squeeze in calories wherever I could. Most of the time, I had meal replacement shakes with my meals. Then, I found meds that worked for me and my eating habits backfired. Every now and then, I may slip back to my old ways by following out a loaf of bread and filling it with a container of Nutella and eating the entire thing in one sitting. Hence why I am now 246lbs.

Been there, done that. With half and half instead of milk.
- Comment on Turning Gaming Handhelds into Digital Audio Players: An Interview with Riley 1 month ago:
I would love to get an audio player on my old Powkiddy V90. It sucks as a gaming handheld. But it’s small, has a headphone jack, and a physical volume wheel. That would be awesome.

I still rocked it yesterday. It’s a great little MP3 player. I take it rustic camping because the battery life is so good.

Daylight bulbs only belong in the bathroom. That’s the only place I want to see things that bright. Also, if there’s anyplace you want to feel sterile and hospital like, wouldn’t it be the bathroom?

Antique. I’d say mission style furniture. My father in law used to do restorations. But it really isn’t my scene at all. My ideal house would be all mid-century. But I also like more modern contemporary furniture.

I have an extending table, too. It’s 4 person, extends to 6. But that puts the legs right between your legs when you sit on the sides.
- Comment on Mom with the real questions 2 months ago:
My wife’s parents have a ton of antique furniture. They’ve given us some stuff, it is out in the garage now. They see our furniture, it is more modern. My mother in law has been pouty, “oh, I guess we need to sell all this before we die! You aren’t going to want any of this.” Thank you, yes. That is exactly what I want. I know that was supposed to be a guilt trip, but that is exactly what we want. Lol
