What I love the most about NYC is that I'm heading home from NYCC with a Dr Doom cosplayer on the same bus, and not a single person gives even the slightest of damns.

In a game with tons of NY tropes and stereotypes, Deadlock has somehow outdone itself and made a character with the MOST NY motivation ever.

Do the zoomers still call things "mid"? Or did that word disappear from use really quick?

Did anyone else see this, and I think it could be a new season of "The Amazing Digital Circus"? Just me?

Needed to look something about trypophobia for a story I'm working on, and I never closed a tab so fast.

I have no energy, but I must write this stupid comic script that I can't afford to have drawn.

"Wow. You get paid to stay home and take care of your parents? You're so lucky. I would love to have a job like that." They say as I hold back the internal scream that has been building up in my soul for the last two years.

Never let anyone tell you that spite isn't a good reason to stay alive. Fuck it. Stay alive expressly to annoy anyone who told you that.

Cannot tell if this is leads to some kind of "call to adventure" or "hero falls to corruption" moment

Honestly feels like half of the questions submitted to these WoW Forever Q&As are some form of "can we just relive 2004 again?" I wonder if we'll reach the point where someone asks "can we simulate the experience of being a broke college student needing to ask my parents to pay for my sub?"

Spent the last couple of weeks organizing my niece's wedding, dealing with family, and prepping to officiate it. I think I'm ready for a break and turn off my brain now.

Nothing like needing to deep clean your house because you have guest staying over to really make you realize how badly depression was impacting your daily life.

If we lived in a country where the Bible would be examined alongside other religious texts to give kids a better understanding of all beliefs, histories, and cultures, then I'd be all for it, but we do not live in a country like that.

"Do you write for yourself, for the sake of art, or do you just write for validation from others?" What a dumb question. Have you met me? Of course it's for validation.

If someone put "can read and understand text without asking AI" on their dating profile, would that be seen as a plus? Would you swipe.. whatever direction is good.. on that person?

Posted this in my Discord, then pointed out the years all these movies were set in, and.. I think I might have done some real damage there....
A post saying that the main characters in Twelve Monkeys, Children of Men, and Blade Runner would all be millennials. And, just so you know, Children of Men is set in 2027, Twelve Monkeys is 2035 , and Blade Runner is 2019.
