I'm not worried about protein powder because as an electronics hobbyist I've already decided that lead poisoning isn't real

I would construct the worlds biggest ball pit: as large as can be afforded by my mythical-scale wealth.

Only original DashCon attendees would be allowed to play in it.

lets say a wizard has cursed you with a lot of money. you are going to become permanently brain damaged simply by being in possession of so much money. the only way out of it is to spend a lot of money on something ridiculous and not at all useful

what would you buy to break the curse?

Slow Horses is great.

I wonder if you could make something fun by swapping out Jacson Lamb with cuts from Bram Stoker's Dracula.

I used to eat at La Cocina all the time when I worked near: almost 20 years ago.

Glad to see it's still there and looks exactly the same!

Halloween is fast approaching, and I'd love some more eyes for Without a Dawn. Yesterday, Jacob Geller talked about my game, which was an incredible feat! I feel some momentum building. Press, influencers, if you're into odd indie horror games, let me know! ☺️

And of course: developed original canned pasta which introduced Italian American food as a staple of working and middle-class American cuisine.

I think we need to go further.

The huge concentration of wealth is a bigger problem than income.

I think we need to break up large fortunes like (we used to for ) monopolies.

Set a ceiling based on a multiple of median net worth: as median wealth rises, the ceiling rises.

the funniest thing about this is that those of us who grew up in the divide all have a bunch of pre-cell phone numbers memorized and almost none afterwards

I know the home phone numbers of two of my childhood best friends from thirty years ago and none of the cell numbers of my college friends

If anyone needs me I will be in the museum, lying down next to the bog bodies.

Ah this was me last night!

I was trying to record a quick song with Audition, but it just kept crashing on startup when trying to initialize hardware.

I finally delved into the preferences files in appdata and mucked around by hand enough to get it going.

So easy! You really only need to shave cleanup every 2-3 days.

When AI takes over, we can all be professional podcasters Cas.

Good money in podcasting. You see how much Rogan makes?

If we all even made half that we'll be doing fine.
