Reposted by Ben (Oatmeal Era)derek guy @dieworkwear.bsky.social · 7hseeing conservative men debate how to dress online is very funny. can't dress up or wear interesting casualwear bc you've made any visible interest in dress to be a sign of homosexuality. but you feel the need to dress better bc you've linked dress to respectability. a prison of your own making. 996732775

Ben (Oatmeal Era) @ben.vampirefriday.org · 14hI just accidentally said “Silent Jay” when I clearly meant “Silent Bob”, which means I have been excommunicated from the Millennial generation, and will certainly not be invited into Gen X after such a blunder. Going to have to start applying to become a Zoomer. 120

Ben (Oatmeal Era) @ben.vampirefriday.org · 02/10/2026This is partially a joke but also most of the time if people ask me for recommendations I have to add a big list of caveats as to why somebody may not like what I’m recommending. 110

Ben (Oatmeal Era) @ben.vampirefriday.org · 28/09/2026I was playing Control: Resonant and glitched through the floor and into a void space and the thing about a Remedy game is that I wasn’t sure if this was intentional or not. Turns out it wasn’t. But I was not immediately sure of that. 032
Ben (Oatmeal Era) @ben.vampirefriday.org · 27/09/2026This has evolved into another friend buying her a Lions tshirt (which she is wearing today.) She is nervous about wearing it outside lest anybody talk to her about sports. I said “all you have to say is ‘I think we could go all the way this year.’” She had become that episode of The IT Crowd. 020

Ben (Oatmeal Era) @ben.vampirefriday.org · 25/09/2026I have sort of accidentally taken a break from social media almost entirely. Not for any reason other than I suddenly forgot about it.
