this steam next fest to keep things exciting consider taking a drink every time a game asks you to pick one temporary upgrade from a selection of three temporary upgrades

everyone's regularly shitting on social media and talking about how bad it is and i can't disagree with a lot of it but also: nearly every good thing in my life right now only exists because of social media, the people i've met through it, and the things i've learned from it

Has anything great happened in your life because of social media?

i went into sonic 06 as a snide, opinionated thirteen year old who was preempted into thinking it would be a buggy hellscape. schadenfreude on the ps3.

i still found it kinda surreal how bad it was

I almost wish it were uglier. At least it would be remarkable

To the untrained eye this is a field of untapped potential, but practically it’s the exact opposite. Someone owns every square inch of this wasteland and they have no intention of doing anything good with it. These are the banned frequencies, the radio static in landscape.

I don’t get into the municipal grey area very often. The sad speckled stretch between cities and their underdeveloped sister townships. It’s a really hideous void. Astonishingly wide expanse of unused yellow brown land. An ugly golf course. A redundant car dealership. A useless billboard

how do people not make themselves look stupid. it’s so hard not to say unfounded shit constantly

i thought Stollery was a generic word for children’s hospital and used it as such, outside Edmonton. not so! very much an Edmonton specific hospital

how do you never make an ass of yourself

My single solid use for ChatGPT is for remembering words or terms that are on the tip of your tongue. Google has always been bad at “word that means X and Y”

I couldn’t remember the term Period Piece the other day and I felt very dumb.

…not really worth the 9999999999$ in electricity though.

I can give bumfuck Alberta insight. my entire family came from the fucking crucible that is rural Alberta

If you wanna go REALLY small, might I suggest the “town” of Warspite?
