Man I remember listening to that story of the museum heist on NPR. Ended up being like 15 minutes late to wherever I was supposed to be because I stayed in the car listening to the whole thing.

I don’t want any of those things

Awesome work! Looks beautiful!

But also, Kirby as a Metroidvania worked so much better than it had any right to, really wish they’d do another game in that genre.

I was so excited for that game when it was coming out, my mom bought some weird copy on the Internet for my birthday before it was even released in North America. The game was in English but the manual was in Japanese. Managed to get 99% completion and then my save data got corrupted.

Motherfucker

“Henceforth no citizen shall enjoy any rights unless they are capable of defeating the self-appointed arbiter of personhood in a debate. But be warned, he will only ever argue in bad faith, has unmatched endurance when it comes to moving goalposts, and if he senses an impending defeat he will simply rattle off a haphazard list of logical fallacies before declaring himself the victor and storming off. Also he will only accept challenges from those who have yet to earn a high school diploma.”

In related news, deplatforming fascists is effective and we should do so more frequently.

Henry Ford is also the reason kids learn square dancing in school. I actually had to learn how to dance like a hillbilly in gym class because some long-dead antisemite was once convinced that jazz music and the Charleston (read: black people and anything cultural that they contribute) would corrupt the youth, who could only be saved by the purity of barnyard dancing.

I don’t know how this contributes to the conversation at hand, but I think about it a lot.

“Will you endorse the man who tried to send an angry mob to hang you in order to stop the peaceful transition of power in the United States?”

“Probably not.”

It’s crazy that people are acting like this is some brave stance on pence’s part. Jesus, Republicans get to enjoy such a low bar for being praised.

It’s insane how low the bar is for Republicans to be given credit. Doing his job as VP and certifying a lawful election shouldn’t earn him any praise. Not endorsing the man who sent an angry mob to stop him from doing his job shouldn’t earn him any praise.

This is not a man who “grew a spine,” it’s a pile of wet napkins that got slightly more dry.

You know what? I’m just gonna say it: nouns suck.

Man, maybe keep that fetish in the bedroom if those are the best lyrics you can come up with.

It’s a Netflix show. Obviously they’re gonna cancel it after the second season.

One problem is that there’s a massive upfront cost to get into VR as a consumer. Even the cheaper headsets are several hundred dollars, similar to a full console purchase. Which means not a lot of people are going to invest in the hardware, which means there isn’t as much of a market to produce games for, which means not a lot of people are going to invest in the hardware, etc etc etc.

On top of that, VR has the awkward problem of locomotion. Either you’re teleporting around the game world, getting motion sick moving around the game world, or standing in one place at all times. None of these options are ideal, and the only real solutions to this issue involve insanely pricy hardware purchases.

Maybe one day we’ll figure it out, maybe we’ll all be living in tubes playing games with our minds or whatever.

Quit.

The Office is a goofy workplace comedy when viewed through the lens of an audience member, but Michael Scott is an objectively terrible boss and a shitty person.

He’s constantly making comments that are racist, sexist, or otherwise ignorant and unacceptable in the workplace.

He can’t keep any information confidential, as seen when he outs Oscar for being gay.

He refuses to let anyone be “above him” such as when he ruins Phyllis’ wedding because her father made a great toast, or when he gets kicked out of the boat party for refusing to let the captain do his job.

“Oh but he cares so much about his employees! 🥺” No he doesn’t. That’s why he insists on making his employees tend to his slightly burnt foot instead of dealing with Dwight’s concussion. Oh, and let’s not forget the time he sabotaged Jim’s promotion by straight up slandering him to David Wallace.

I would rather be unemployed than working for such an insufferable man child like Michael Scott. The Office might be fun to watch, but it would be hell to live through it every weekday from 8-5.

Weirdly, the other half of millenials that do own homes weren’t asked at all, I guess they won’t have any useful input on how affordable homes are

This article is about how affordable homes are right now. The fact that I was able to purchase a home in 2019 is irrelevant because I’d be talking about market conditions that haven’t existed for several years.

And depression_now@lemmy.world

No, neither.

The only thing that makes creating an Instagram tempting is the fact that every single tattoo artist in the area seemingly uses Instagram exclusively to post their work, and you can only scroll through so many posts without an account. Makes it very frustrating to research potential artists.

I pirate because I wanted to watch across the spider-verse. PSA you don’t need to justify your decision to pirate something, you’re allowed to just do it without taking a stand for or against something.

A few drinks deep is a good way to watch, in my opinion.

But also Jimmy (or whoever saved him) now has two broken arms thanks to a human sized object falling onto them at terminal velocity.

… Two broken arms…? Oh no… I remembered that Reddit post.
