this month is the anniversary of our son dying and with the world falling apart and me living a life I feel is barely worth living i just don’t think I’ve got it in me

I hate the Road as well, myself

I have no positive notes on it at all

At least the movie was well made

An American Werebadger in Oregon @werebadger.bsky.social · 2h

That’s fair. This is one of those things that should affect me like that especially due to uh my life rn lol

idk I find comfort in it. We should watch LOST until Desmond shows up. Now THAT’S a character I emphasize with too

I also think the ending of the Matheson story is such a good perspective

I started off today by painting toys, drinking coffee and smoking weed while I watched Tokyo Gore Police (2008)

NW The Last Man on Earth (1964) with the unbelievably great Vincent Price in the best adaptation of Richard Matheson’s “I Am Legend” to exist as film

I was going to complain about the will Smith version but in the spirit of spooky season I will just say that the Vincent Price version is still the best film adaptation and is free to watch in a variety of places

Absolutely crazy how Kamala Harris can release a whole book detailing how Biden and his team essentially sabotaged the presidential campaign in an effort to preserve his legacy… And TO THIS DAY you’ll see liberals come on here and blame leftists for “costing her the election”

This is amazing. I laughed out loud www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle...

As 32-year-old Rich points out, though, "it's not like using ChatGPT guarantees success".
When he met someone in a bar one Friday night and swapped social media handles, he asked AI what his next move should be.
ChatGPT discerned that sending an initial message on Monday midmorning would set the right pace. "Then it gave me some options for what the message could be," says Rich.
"Keep it light, warm, and low-stakes so it reads as genuine interest without urgency," the bot advised. "Something like: Hey Sarah, still laughing about [tiny shared moment/reference if you've got one] - good to meet you!" Rich went back and forth with ChatGPT until he felt they'd hit upon exactly the right message ("Hey Sarah, it was lovely to meet you") but sadly she never replied, he says. "It's been two weeks now."

Screen shot from an article mentioning NR on a reality show

“Nathan Rimmington, 33, is a haulier and
owner of an HGV driving school in
Barnsley. Huge, tattooed, always sweating
and always pining for a pint, he is
portrayed in the series as an incorrigible
joker:
"If the government don't crack down
on immigration, my kids will have to go to
school on fucking camels."”

that was a pretty fast milkshake ducking; I was absolutely thinking “this is some shit I would do” like when I think Takis sent me to the ER and then oh yah every tattooed balding old white guy is also a racist, naturally

this is why I can’t even put a decent online game group together

The opening to this convo was “I’m going to call CPS on you because you were mean to me on my bigot post”

When you’re totally not mad and ABSOLUTELY not a homophobe

An American Werebadger in Oregon @werebadger.bsky.social · 1d

I think about this convo all the time

Idk if he was looking for a lolcow or if he was earnest but he just fully exploded like the dude in Scanners

A YouTuber I like a lot was reviewing an absolutely hideous right-winger video game so they could riff it and the gross turd who made the game was so bigoted they horseshoed around and made this actually unfathomably based sign
