It’s a great song, but I can’t see myself choosing to play it outside game night. (I played this one to death during our desert campaign)
- Comment on Anon enjoys videogame music 1 hour ago:
I do feel the same way about movie soundtracks. My partner pulled the full interstellar soundtrack into their chill out playlist and I wince a little every time.
I liked the music in bioshock, shadow of the colossus, kingdom hearts 3, horizon, undertale, etc., quite a lot. But devoting time to listening to it, rather than modern music made for home listening just doesn’t appeal to me. It feels like pulling out a jigsaw when you need a dremel. Like, you can do that, certainly, but there are infinitely better options

It’s excellent for the setting it was made for, but is lacking compared to the collected discography of generations of musicians tuned to at-home listening.
I listen to opera at the opera. I listen to symphonies at the symphony, or at home if I’m particularly nostalgic. I listen to game music when I’m playing games. Each has an environment crafted around it to maximize enjoyment. I can’t even listen to edm without dimming the lights.
Listening to a game soundtrack made to evoke specific emotions at specific times? It feels like the point was wholly missed and vast horizons entirely ignored.

I don’t mean to offend anyone but I cannot respect you as a human being, let alone a sentient organism, if you enjoy video game music at any time other than whilst playing a video game.
“I like the music in doom, it’s weirdly ambient despite being so aggressive.” Perfectly fine, even respectable. “I was listening to the mortal kombat soundtrack the other day…” You are lesser than a sea cucumber.

You’re right, we’ve been putting this off for far too long. He’s been dead for years. We’ve definitely grown enough to begin speaking about our powder rooms despite the absence of his treasured guidance. RIP, ol’ sniffer. Pouring one out for ya, buddy.

So, ibs has an unknown cause, right? Does it persist indefinitely in donated organs or does it eventually subside? I might have it, albeit undiagnosed, so I got curious as I’m an organ donor

That makes sense of it. It was years ago, and my memory was diluted by my contemporaneous stress. Thank you for making me feel a little saner.

Activated charcoal is a decent idea within a few hours. Days after you’ve ingested fucking turpentine, you’ve long since passed the point of no return. From what I recall, charcoal prevents additional absorption, it doesn’t leech out poison like some sort of magic second liver.
Though that was assuredly their joke. Just one infuriatingly insane statement after another.

Having now looked through several comment sections, I found like 10 satire comments jokingly going along with fascist rhetoric and 3 genuinely mask off accounts. I don’t think it’s very common, at least in default sorting. I don’t know or care to learn how to sort by new, on mobile.

Is this helldivers? The game where half of a planet’s population is forcibly turned into big fuel every few years?

Cats fucking adore butter. They don’t care for sugar or wheat, but they’ll go buck wild for butter. Sounds like you made proper pie!

As someone who relatively frequently stresses out over the absence of pollinators in their area, I wish it were benefitting big fly. As it stands, it benefits only big roach.

Catfish? What do you mean? Would you really call a delicate, wet creature like me a catfish?

As their song goes, “there’s a schism between us, baby.” Or, perhaps more relevantly, “it’s like he’s both 46 and 2” from their album Vaginal Biome Destruction.

Thanks! I’ve definitely put work into getting this swimmer’s body

Bro, what? Why would you say that? You’re crazy. What? No. I’m definitely that. Here’s a nude pic to confirm!

I still have no clue how people were convinced to look like fucking tiny Tim. And these goofy short sleeve button up dress shirts? Who’s teaching these kids this nonsense??

Iirc, wasn’t flash deprecated because of unpatchable bugs that presented a gaping holein your browser security?

I mean, not using a corruptible president is just leaving money on the table. It’s not like-
“…his vocal support of President Donald Trump”
I hope he develops a debilitating gambling addiction so he might one day experience hardship again.
- Comment on Anon remembers Baby Dovahkiin 2 weeks ago:
The year is 2045. A new console has been released. My impenetrable plastic dome grows 281701 copies of Skyrim taller. My living spaces lie so deep within the confines of this polyethylene prison that the explosive crack of the delivery cranes can no longer disturb the air around me.
I’ve been alone for years now. My two children, brave and foolish in equal measure, attempted to tunnel out while my partner and I passed the time in blissful ignorance. The torrential shift in the stack felt as though the world had cleaved itself in two. It had.
My partner blamed herself. I did the same. But she managed to take her leave of our situation before I could. We had long ago spoken about final arrangements, so I had already prepared a coffin crafted out of special edition boxes. I entombed her along with our little boys within the chamber closed in the avalanche.
My taciturn days and years are spent carefully carving an unerringly straight line through the hoard of copies holding me prisoner.
Recently, I’ve heard something other than the scurrying of vermin or the cacophonous settling of stack. A ceaseless, rumbling hum that stirs memories of travel and sunshine. The giddiness in my chest is as unrelenting as the electric pain piercing through my bowed back. I might soon find my way out.
…
My first breath of freedom feels like icy daggers rending at my throat. I cannot muster the strength to open my eyes. How had the world changed? How had I? How could I function after all I had gone through? With a soft breath out, I slowly lifted my eyelids to begin again. New, and fresh. A voice from nearby rang through my ears as light filled my eyes. “You’re awake then?”
- Comment on Anon likes Mario 2 weeks ago:
I frequently compare Elden ring’s camera to Mario 64. It’s just good enough until you’re in an enclosed space. Plenty of romhacks have solved the issue with fixed camera angles or fully outdoor level design.

- Comment on I just want juice, is that so much to ask? 2 weeks ago:
They are, however, made of the fruit they’re named after with little sugar added. That 8oz is about half a pound, and half a pound of grapes is calorically comparable
We’ve cultivated tree candy, and I can’t see it any other way.
- Comment on I just want juice, is that so much to ask? 2 weeks ago:
Unless you’re looking for Apple or grape juice specifically, this is what you get. I’ve long decided to avoid juices as a result. If I want a sugar water packet, I just pack a honeycrisp apple, orange, Asian pear, plum, or a slightly overripe bartlett pear.
- Comment on Yay, milkshakes! 3 weeks ago:
That’s far more liquid than I expected them to contain. I also expected them to be left alive, not drained dry. Wouldn’t it be more economical to feed them in a large tank for a few weeks, rather than killing them outright? I feel like fish food, by mass, costs 1/10th or less of live horseshoe crabs.
