Hey folks - we’re still trying to get our rent paid up, and our landlord is threatening to give us a 3-day notice if we don’t make a payment immediately.

If there’s anything you can do to help, we could really use it.

if someone slaps Pwink hard enough, does he cycle through forms like a Mario Kart cube?

y'know, it's logical to allow renters pets.

i mean the whole companionship and lowered stress, sure.

but if your creature is good at taking care of pests? well. that's less cost to your housing overlord, right?

Giant concrete middle fingers air dropped onto various individuals houses and/or front lawn who have either wronged me or just all round shitheads.

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?

this is hardly a hot take.

let's face it, if Markiplier never played it, it would've gotten nowhere.

simple luck made it into the object of sunk cost fallacy it is today.

you live through the 8-16 bit eras and you definitely see some dogshit tie-ins too.

which unfortunately overshadows some of the more obscure but neat titles.

i mean before the plastic surgeries and hair plugs he looked like any other chinless balding incel wonderkid that walked the face of the planet.

(The curious thing is that a lot of them have similar personality traits to accompany their facial features.)

Command and Conquer 4 and the Bionic Commando remake are among some of the worst i've ever played.

My bar is set at: "games i've given up on"
Pariah is an FPS i've played and taught me an impeccable lesson to not trust game reviews, because i got it based on a review and it freakin' SUCKED.

these days if you wanna stand a chance you need to be popular enough to pay everybody but also not so popular as to attract a corporate overlord or worse: Equity.

i still poke my head into the AI places from time to time since my little research project a couple years ago..
They're already beginning to restrict NSFW content by paywalling it thus far. It's frankly amusing.
At this point learning to draw is even more comparatively cheaper. :D

one thing about american politics that continues to utterly perplex me is the whole "well this person to the left isn't the paragon of virtue i want so i'm left with either doing nothing or voting for literal satan" thing people have going.

that feels decidedly "normal" to me. Like, sleeping a clean 6 hours is an anomaly to me.

...actually going to freakin' BED whenever i damn well please is a bloody anomaly to me, there's always half a dozen bullshit things to do beforehand.

hrm.

concept: a roguelite RPG mechanic where the party members are your strongest previous playthroughs.

Like you start out with nobody, but as you die you accumulate party members or they just die off from attrition. You don't get any more until your next playthrough.

Ozy wearing pants on the regular feels like one of those "could've been an event but suitably anticlimatic given it's Ozy" moments.
Like, one day: Pants. and nobody ever acknowledges it. (or needs to)
