Listen to EMF's "Unbelievable" and tell me that isn't the most Mario Paint song created outside of Mario Paint. The dog woof and baby "eh-ehh!" could slide in there without notice.

Let's all chip in to save the rich. We just have to: -Hate the vulnerable, the compassionate, the academic -Pretend toiling in misery is virtue, freedom -Fund/worship violence to protect the interests of the powerful -Underfund health, true progress, our surroundings Sounds hard, but we're capable

Calibre was terrific for formatting ebooks + loading them on my Kobo. Sadly the dev got AI-brained. New "features" include slop book covers and a backend for Musk's csam generator. Everything terrible keeps tainting the niche interests I use to escape from everything terrible.

Girl Reporter, you spent your first paycheck on that Spanking Robot Superman. The "accidental" pratfall might have worked once, but you do it every time we're over for dinner, Girl Reporter.

Stereo speakers are often labeled Left and Right. But they don't say if that's your right/left or the system's right/left. To be safe split the difference, placing the speakers in the center of your room with one on its back and the other laying face down on top of it.

GOG has emanated stink lines for years, and I finally dropped them when they embraced AI. Now they're knowingly emailing Nazi-embraced symbols (doubled specifically to evoke SS) and not bothering to pretend it was an error. No DRM-free copy of Daikatana is worth dealing with these cretins

Doing a clean Win11 install. Brutal. Not only because of the hoops they make you jump through + the shitty settings that come enabled. Even Firefox, Bitwarden, etc. feel similarly scummy/intrusive in ways I forgot because I tweaked them so long ago.

TVs are now the only cheap product in America. My old one died so I got a way nicer model w/ Dolby Vision + genuinely decent built-in speakers, and it was under $300 after discounts. Felt weird to pay less for a big honkin' tv than the Switch 2 sitting under it

Every relationship is toxic when your body is coated in poison. These lovelorn lotharioozes are always on the lookout for romance, but are destined to struggle to even get a hug.MORPHEAN MUSHROOM
Former mushrooms that morphed into monsters when hungry humans attempted to pick them. It should come as no surprise that these unfun guys despise people.
