Apps are always asking me 'mute? block? report? don't recommend? downvote?' when the only option I want or need is "Imagine I am your grand vizier and I have yelled "ENOUGH!" without explanation."

Pope said stop being weird
Pope Leo XIV told students not to use artificial intelligence for homework, saying that AI ‘won’t stand in authentic wonder before the beauty of God’s creation.’

This whole "going through a midlife crisis" thing as I am literally about to turn 40 in a week is kinda harshing my buzz, not gonna lie.

I wonder what it says about me and my musical tastes that I mostly grew up in the 90s/00s and yet if you were to ask me my musical "decade" choice I'd have to tell you I'd listen to 80s over most things.

I picked up Pokemon ZA and just started it. Now, I haven't seriously played a Pokemon game since... Red. I spent an entire summer playing red and blue with my buddy, and nothing has captured that high. ZA, in like 20 minutes, has captured what my brain always said MMO Pokemon would be. Wild stuff.

I have been so incredibly depressed lately. I'm taking my meds, but nothing brings me joy for the most part, and when it comes time for dinner every night **nothing** sounds good, which leads to me not eating, which is saving me money but you know, nearly passing out from lack of eating isn't good

@cmet.bsky.social I just want you to know that you have what might be my favorite webcomic running right now, and I look forward to seeing what the brigade is up to weekly. This Becket and Klara stuff is killing me, though -- every time they're together I am just going "NOW KISS". So, thank you. :)

So I'm looking through the roadmap for Destiny 2 and I noticed that they're doing universal slot exotic ornaments, which is rad. But it makes me wonder -- what is the difference in systems between that and just making Ghost Shells custom appearances?

With my birthday coming up, I might pick up Pokemon Legends: Z-A. I know I have had gaming paralysis lately, but I haven't played a good pokemon game in a long, long time.

We're gonna be playing Pathfinder (think D&D but better) over on Cool Zone Media Book Club for the next six weeks, and I figured why not start with a little prequel story as a teaser, complete with character art.

Missed my shot by a few days then took it midday today and hooo boy, a few hours later I felt like absolute dog water. So much so I asked my MIL to watch kiddo and just crashed out for two hours feeling ill. Slightly better now but it's the lingering effects that are bugging me.

I know they're going to try and drag us back into Hell tomorrow, but fuck that and fuck them. Tonight we get to breathe a small sigh of relief that there are people out there still fighting for everyone, and it's not over.
I can breathe again, for the moment.

Body dysmorphia is a bitch. I've lost this weight, I'm fitting into way smaller clothes (hell my wife bought me L undershirts and I managed to wear it to the wedding) but when I see myself in photos all I see is how big my belly looks and it's just so self-defeating.
