Like, Sisyphus, I am condemned to eternal toil. I must roll a ball of code up a hill eternally in an attempt to finish a game. Every so often the ball rolls down the hill and I have to start over with a new game. (For legal reasons, this is a joke. I am still working on Vortex Siege.)

I don't know which fighting game we are talking but whichever one it is, I bought it so I could press buttons. You would have me stop pressing buttons? And for what? Mere victory? Nay, I shall not be tempted by such earthly pleasures. For in the stage of my mind, it is always my turn.

It's funny that we're going to Adam West Batman because I randomly wanted a GIF of the Total Dehydration Ray in action and I absolutely could not find one online. This is the closest thing I could find.

The era of Alanis-posting has begun, and nobody can stop me.

A meme showing Alanis Morissette happy from the music video for Ironic and saying "Me, knowing that I have 10,000 spoons." The other panel shows her looking upset in the music video for You Oughta Know, saying "Me, realizing that all I need is a knife, so the marginal utility of spoons is zero."

I've heard those mirror geese are like 10x as powerful as normal geese and 1000x as malicious.

I've honestly wanted to get into geese for a while. Can you recommend me some entry level geese that a beginner like me can understand and enjoy?

Anyway, once we got past all this, I think I got some small street cred for the games thing, because she pulled out her D&D book and we had like an hour long conversation about the merits of different class and race choices, which is not where I expected any of this to go.

She asked where the monitor was so I told her the monitor was up on the desk connected by wires and showed a photo to demonstrate. There was a game on my screen at the time, which was even more confusing now because adults do not play videogames, you see.

Today I showed a 10 year old a cat photo that had my desktop computer in the corner and she started asking about it. She didn't believe me that it was a computer because it didn't have a screen. Eventually she conceded that maybe it was a PC, but it definitely was not a computer.

This is also a problem when listening to unknown artists on music platforms like Spotify. -_- Hate having to search for any vaguely suspicious sounding artist to see if they seem to be a real person.

I have honestly never seen this and have to thank you for reposting this. It's the rare situation where some amount of psychic damage is worth it for the entertainment.

"Dear God, man, just look at his beans! They're plooping for God's sake and you just sit there, doing nothing!"

There's only one type of bean I would consider even trying to ploop

caesuric @caesuric.lazyscrivenergames.com · 21/05/2026

I don't know enough to know whether I would or not, and I'm scared of the psychic damage I might take if I tried to find out.

the comparison was to wikipedia, which is (was?) more accurate than most traditional encyclopedias despite its crowdsourced and open nature

000

caesuric @caesuric.lazyscrivenergames.com · 30/01/2026

ironically I believe I remember reading that Encarta was not particularly accurate (by the standards of encyclopedias, which is VERY HIGH). I'm not saying anything else in this conversation is more accurate at all, I'm just saying, lol.

The worst part of this time of year is when you die on New Year's Eve right before the save point, and have to start your run from all the way back on January 1st.
