Making a reminder note that I'm using Mastodon a bit more in the event shit gets worse here than it already is. Do I expect folks to migrate over? No, but as I've mentioned, backup plans. Probably also shouldn't be on mastodon dot social but hopefully it is temporary.

It ends with Awesome Possum having his horrifying visage carved into a sacred natural site stolen from Native Americans. So you know, he's all about the environment.
A screenshot of Awesome Possum's face added to Mount Rushmore. Text reads "Awesome Possum is added to Mt. Rushmore in appreciation for saving the world".

As a reminder to people who think talking peacefully to these idiots is going to change them, this incident is what led to the beginning of the end of her career. She lost her cushy orange juice sponsorship contract due to the negative publicity surrounding her as well as her other endorsements

Duke Nukem Forever

I beat the base game twice AND the DLC campaign in order to get all the Steam cheevos. I’m one of those sickos that actually waited forever for the game to come out, and months before release, I had very low hopes. But I felt like I needed closure.

Don’t play Duke Nukem Forever.

What's the worst game you finished/rolled credits on?

(games media folks, it can't be something you were assigned to review; this has to be something you subjected yourself to of your own free will)

Didn’t know the Umamusume world had a Yakuza 0 theme resort.
Bubblyland is an eccentric pool resort themed around the fun atmosphere of Japan’s late ‘80s bubble era.

My rent is paid, so October starts now for my finances.

Of course, disability pretty much runs out immediately once rent is paid, so I'm going into the month on the ropes.

Plus, it's my birthday month. (The 8th!)

So here's the fundraising.

Freetube making it easy to just hide entire channels or specific words that show up in titles is nice. Maybe I can use that to trim down all the garbage from the "Trending" page it shows.

*several moments later*

Trending is only showing me like three videos at a time.
