That sounds terrible to me but I am a baja blast addict so I can't talk. Also I respect your 0 sugar choices I come from a diet mountain dew household. My mom literally brings two cans with her whenever she leaves the house.

I'm pretty sure if I complained out loud to anyone who wasn't a close personal friend, they'd be genuinely confused why I was upset.

One of the things that drives me nuts about Philly is there's a cheesesteak place that decided to just let their customers park on the sidewalk and in the turning lane out front of their business and absolutely nobody in the entire city gives a shit. I wanna slash all their tires every time I pass.

I love cats but I do toss and turn a lot in my sleep sometimes and I think I genuinely have hurt my previous cat in my sleep. My current cats have me trained a bit better/are less afraid of pain. They do get up and go immediately if I move at all though.

That isn't very hustle grind culture of you, I would've already reinvested that into several passive income streams

It doesn't have to make you more efficient if it makes you more able to tolerate the conditions of your job.

I don't know if what I meant had to do with belief. I think someone in sales has very good reason to stay dissociated a lot of the time since their work is kinda "bullshit." A lot of people work bullshit jobs that they're aware are making the world a bit worse. This tech seems aimed right at them.

I think it's telling that the person I know most hooked on this stuff is in sales. Tech people are also pretty hooked but I don't hear them talk about just chatting with their AI assistants ever.

Sometimes I wake up with a cat already on top of me and I think "oh good, I wasn't thrashing in my sleep"

This is the proper way to experience any meal. It's good for the circulation

Have fun with those haha, I top out around Scotch bonnet, but it depends on what you're making with the peppers. Also I sometimes get a craving for tear-inducing heat but usually I just like a moderate amount. I don't need my peppers to have a Guinness world record associated with them.

I mean, Thai peppers are hot though haha. They're usually the hottest peppers you can get at the store or that people grow in their gardens. I do think they taste way better than other hot peppers though, I think habaneros taste gross.

Take a few minutes to appreciate Drew Struzan creating the original artwork for THE PHANTOM MENACE. Truly a master at work.

I played a lot of it on switch 1, which isn't really strong enough to run the game, but playing with a controller was weirdly satisfying. My roommate joked it looked like I was playing an intense shooter when I was just building railroads lol.

I keep wanting a roguelike survival version of fallout 1 to exist and I keep forgetting caves of qud exists which isn't exactly that but I bet it would scratch the itch and is probably a better game than the one I want.

Oh it's portfolio day. I don't really have a portfolio, but here, have some pieces I actually got paid for (and one I'm just quite proud of). I would be happy to get paid to draw more things but I'm also just happy I've gotten to do this much already.
