"you guys watch Joe Don Baker movies?" (he/him)
Pinned
youtube keeps recommending me "attractive woman talks about books" videos
phone updates and changes the power off button to "summon Google Assistant," and i cannot relay to you how fucking frustrating this is

it's in Settings, i already fixed this, just a problem that didn't need to exist and only exists cuz a VP needed to show artificial growth to pad an inflated salary

think my favorite bit in dread delusion were the Neuron Stars. A mage at the academy mentions how they just keep going on like that once you leave the atmosphere, and their configuration resembles our own minds.

And then the game does nothing else with that one, it's very funny

someone said "if you're gonna post 'play more indie games' during the game awards, at least post 50 recs" and every mf on my timeline decided to take them up on that offer

ME: So given everything I’ve told you guys about Joey, you’d expect him to go to CraveCon, right? Wrong! He was actually one of the first guys to back out. I mean that tells you all you need to know right there, right?

How men feared women! she thought, walking among the late-flowering roses. Not as individuals, but women when they talked together, worked together, spoke up for one another - then men saw plots, cabals, constraints, traps being laid.

id vote for the somebody with the stones to say we need to be culturally abnormal because the culture is not working for everybody instead of governor nosy neighbor from the addams family over here sitting like a dork in his slippery bottom rich twat shoes
California Governor Gavin Newsom said on Thursday that the Democratic Party needed to be “more culturally normal” and “less judgmental.”

i appreciate how the psych 101 class i took 2 decades ago, a once a week 3 hour monstrosity on Wednesday evenings, the professor i had got to intelligence and IQ and went on a rant about how fake the whole thing was. That was his field of study and he hated everything about it
IQ is a measure of how good you are at IQ tests, which is something informed by how familiar you are with taking academic tests (& thus the quality of your school, which is in part determined by your parents' wealth, etc). there's nothing in particular that makes them a good test of intelligence

reading the giovanni arrighi book The Long Twentieth Century exposed the idea of state-making vs money-making cycles in capital accumulation, and how once the former is exhausted all that's left is the latter

One of the reasons we stopped making History Honeys at the moment we did is my next episode was going to be about the rise of financialization and it was too depressing to write. That was five years ago.

Have heard the job market for Occult Work is miserable, fwiw. At best there’s some psychic detective agencies hiring entry-level, maybe an adjunct gig at Miskatonic.
The @universityofexeter.bsky.social now has a PhD in Magic and Occult Sciences open for applications, check out the website www.exeter.ac.uk/study/pg-res...

Okay, let's spend time with this character
[a heart-wrenching story about loss leading to attempted suicide leading to unknowing miscarriage and the lingering grief of it]
Jesus. uhh ok how about this character
[a zany adventure to claim a rock from another, grumpier rock]
now i'm all for gameplay and story integration, but "dick so good you learn a new gradient attack," that's

when the climax of your rpg is actually the not-even-a-boss offering a lotus for you to eat, and not the sexy charismatic demon final boss guy the game's sucked off till then #MetaphorRefantazio

i don't have any updates besides how climbing the tower from Only Up led to finding a bunch of wood people partying and calling me cool, and you know what that was a real self-esteem boost, i appreciated that
i'm not a prude (all-time tweet opener), i just want lune to start wearing shoes. We're not traversing gentle terrain here, she's kicking and stomping to summon magical death, and i would just feel a lot more comfortable if she were shod or booted or
