Yup! John had to steal Dad's PDA, Rose and Jade used laptops.
Now even John has a flip phone, understandably, because chat logs are not fit for an animation.
But Dave's hipster brick was kind of a whole thing.

And to even be nominated there, the game is popular enough that anyone interested in it either already bought it, or can't afford it.
Hard to grow its audience beyond that.

That's why printer ink is more expensive than blood [citation needed].

They are not only conscious and sentient, but also alive.

all discourse aside, there is one machine with consciousness. it's printers. they are alive and conscious and they hate you and they'd take your arm clean off if you let them. never trust a printer.

The moral of the story is:
To get better experience, you gotta put in the effort.
I need to get over all the hurdles that stand between me and RSS readers - which to me is even larger choice paralysis than picking a masto instance was.

I mostly got on bsky because it was easy to join.
What a loser.

That's going to be me on mastodon:
"I prefer reading blogs but i'm too dumb to use RSS; too many people i followed on bsky are still only on bsky" :|

About a year after joining bsky, Frog never really got used to the place.
"There's more content i like on tumblr but its moderation sucks; too many people i followed on twitter are still only on twitter".

Oh my God this.

You’re not making art, you’re making disgusting, over-processed hotdogs out of the lives of human beings, out of the history of art and music, and then shoving them down someone else’s throat hoping they’ll give you a little thumbs up and like it. Gross.

Did you know the keto diet was originally developed in the 1920s to make sure epileptic children had enough acetone in their blood? No, seriously.

Thanks for helping me reaffirm my choice of not watching this channel.

Don't know how long ago or over which video it was - probably several in a row - but it got on my disgraced channels list at some point.

Someone holding a starfish, then throwing it into a fish-shaped hole in a toy bucket made for throwing blocks into correct holes.

Oh. That's unfortunate :(

Still need $94 for my electric bill (due today), and would prefer to work towards saving up the $180 for Pooh's vet appointment, before gas/internet/etc’s due later in the month (and having to smush it in)

i.m. zumphry @zumphry.com · 15d

Hi all, unfortunately I still need to beg for help to survive the next month. "Only" $2000 this month, with part to save for a vet visit next month.

Need $1175 by the 1st for rent.

Please help by sharing or donating, if you're able to.

It turns out building habits and stuff actually requires not being in survival mode, who knew?!
