I consider myself tech literate and more than once I have had to Google how to unsubscribe or deactivate accounts. It's insane.

SAG hasn’t gone on strike in 23 years. The possibility of them striking while WGA is on strike, and while the interest in and support for labor is higher than it’s been in a long time, plus celebrities demonstrating union organizing and solidarity is such an exciting prospect.

Tolerance versus Acceptance. I remember South Park did a wonderful bit about this.

And money. And food. And housing.

The Heat Index is well into the 90's here. It's insane. Going to be a hot summer and bad for hurricanes.

My grandmother lived to be 102. When I asked what her secret was, she said, “God’s punishing me.”

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but no, sharks cannot smell a drop of blood a mile away. That’s not how smell works. When you smell something, tiny particles of that something are interacting with chemoreceptors in your nose. Remember that next time you smell something gross.

Think of Twitter as shouting your opinions on 5th Avenue in NYC. Filled with people but no ones gives a damn. Bluesky is more like a small town.

I feel I should egg you on to explain this further.

As a fellow 1986’er I am appalled at this.

I have been mostly away from media lately. What happened? (If it's ok to ask).

I don't know much about cameras and I was suddenly VERY confused reading about "M4" and "Soviet rangefinders" in Bluesky. A quick web search cleared that up.

Please tell me it has magical properties of infusing caffeine into you as needed. Right now I could use that.

I remember I got everything I could get my hands on with that colored transparent look. Video game consoles, controllers, the phone, protective cases, pencil cases, you name it. The 90's/early aught's were wild.

God’s fundamental irritation with us can be seen in the fact that we can get sore, tight legs from walking DOWNHILL. It’s like “oh, you thought you’d take an EASY hike? Let’s see how that turns out for you. Look at you, hobbling trying to catch the elevator. Run, bitch, run!”

Block the fuck outta people. Block early. Block often. Block with the wild abandon borne from the knowledge that blocking is love for yourself and everyone who follows you online. Block for the dopamine rush of consigning yet another fucknuckle to oblivion. Block to set an example for others. Block.

Yeah. Every time I started to speed up I dropped accuracy nastily.

I hadn’t. It’s tough. Especially the time aspect.

I finished my first play-through last night. It was a lot more challenging than expected.
