If you know, you know.
Fuck holidays.

More specifically, fuck all the people that have structured society in such a way that people need a break from their regular and fuck all the people that just let it happen too.

I ABHOR having my regular day changed. It is always unpleasant for me.

Reasons we should invent a time machine: so we can bring Mozart to the present day and introduce him to Weird Al. THAT'S a pairing that'll push music forwards!

As someone who has never particularly liked Larian's games, it's nice to not feel so alone any more.

On the heels of the failure of big money pushes for NFTs, crypto, wearables, and the metaverse, it is absurd to hold the position of "AI is inevitable and we must learn to live with it."

It's also a craven position that suggests we shouldn't fight for what we value. We decide our own fates.

”If you have time to lean you have time to clean” and everything related to that in corporate business culture is such toxic bullshit. I am so pissed right now (on someone else’s behalf). Sorry for vague posting, just so freaking angry.

You would stop approximately a hundred times more child sex abuse by passing a law saying kids aren't allowed to go to church, be around cops, or play sports than you would with a social media ban. Weird how you're not supporting that! Why do you hate children and want them to be sexually abused?

Devote more time to running and playing TTRPGs.
Without the pressure of being "worth it", I might even start running very cheap paid games.
Honest question: If everyone got Universal Basic Income, no strings attached, what would YOU do with it?

Everyone should have housing, food, healthcare, education, and internet. Not affordable. Not access. Should have. "How are we gonna pay for it?" That shouldn't matter. Do the right thing. Just do it.

TW: Pet loss.

Monky's buddy Lucky hasn't been feeling well for a while now. It's recently gotten even worse.
Three days since he last ate.
Can't keep down water.
I made arrangements. Today's the day.
Goodbye, buddy. I'm sorry you suffered so long.

People should use whatever skill or stat for any check they can justify, to be honest.

"But what happens when everyone's rolling Bluff to attack by feinting or Stealth to hide their smirk from the crowd or Arcana to magically light a fire"

It fucking kicks ass? Do you hear this shit?

And I wish there was more skepticism exhibited towards giant corporations who exist to make profit for shareholders. I don't care if people like pods, but I *do* care if options which let consumers figure out ideal dosing for themselves are artificially worsened as it sure seems like they are.

Hello, The Internet.
I hate doing this.

Our cat is sick. Wife brought him in to be on oxygen earlier this evening and I'm stuck at work. We've had him longer than we've been married.
I'd rather provide a service than beg, but I'm not above begging.

Please help.

Today sucks.
I had a nightmare a bit after midnight and wasn't able to get back to sleep, and then the lobby was closed for renovations and the only way to get tacos was the drive-thru, so I don't have tacos.
What a waste of a Tuesday.

It is the best Marvel film because the solution was to not punch.
