Trump: "I'm gonna sign me an executive order that says 'artificial intelligence' is now called 'super intelligence'!" AND one that says carbonated beverages must be called 'soda pop'! Not Cokes, or pop, or soda, or soft drinks. AND one saying my farts have to be called Eau d'Trump!" #NotActualQuote

I'm not the "One man" mentioned, but I just as easily could have been, except 2026 for me.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but: DON'T SHAME PEOPLE FOR COMING TO YOUR FANDOM LATE. If someone decides to dip their toe into the superhero genre with Deadpool vs. Wolverine? LET THEM. Don't wring your hands and say, "You're doing it wrong! You have to watch X-Men, and Fantastic Four, and--"

The image is of a four panel comic.
The first panel shows Sarah, the protagonist, working at a desk. A brain next to her says, "We need to take breaks!"
The second panel zooms in on Sarah's face. She is annoyed. She says, "What if I don't listen to you?"
The third panel shows the brain smiling.
The fourth panel shows the brain reaching towards a lever. The brain says, "I'LL MAKE YOU."

'Expiration Date' on a pre-packaged tube of sausage I bought at the store: "Use Within 5 Days of Purchase." What? Within five days of whose purchase? Mine? The store's? How long had it been in the store's case? What does purchasing do to it? It doesn't know where it lives.

This seems to be a thing people are doing, so I figured I'd play. If you really want to get into the weeds about why I picked what I did, see the Alt text. Here's a link for you to do it too: my9games.net

1: Zork
2: Space Quest
3: Quest for Glory
4: Civilization
5: Sam & Max Hit The Road
6: Fallout
7: RollerCoaster Tycoon
8: The Sims
9: Deus Ex

I played tons of games growing up, so ranking them was easier said than done. A lot of games were contenders, but these nine represent notable shifts in how I thought of and interacted with games.

Zork: where I began my love of gaming, and made me want to become a game designer. (Back when that could be a one-person operation.)

Space Quest. My gateway drug into graphic adventures, including most of the Sierra series. I loved them, even their unfair dead ends and surprise deaths.

Quest For Glory introduced me to CRPG's (I was familiar with TTRPG's at the time, but the experiences are apples and oranges.)

Civilization introduced me to turn-based strategy, resource management, and all that good stuff. I tried other series, but found myself going back to the Civ series. Special shout-out to MOO and AoE.

Sam & Max showed me that games could actually make me laugh, and not just groan at puns. It was also the first time I felt that a game's voice acting could hold its own next to professional cartoons.

Fallout was a tough choice. I could have included a lot of top-down RPG's here, but for my money none of them held a candle to this tongue-in-cheek post-apocalyptic series. It is the only RPG series where I played and won nearly every entry ::gives side-eye to Fallout 4::

RollerCoaster Tycoon poured gasoline on the small flame that was my love of coasters, giving me the chance to fiddle with physics.

The Sims. There was a time I might've been embarrassed to admit this one, til I leaned that a (now-deceased) good friend was big in the Sims modding scene, making mods that are still used by Simmers to this day.

Lastly, Deus Ex. An open-ended hybrid RPG, it's the platonic ideal in my mind of what a scripted sandbox RPG can be. More linear than it descendants, but to me many modern games owe part of their success to this one.

I realize a lot can happen in ::checks notes:: a quarter century, but I still find it fascinating that in a small time frame than that, the internet went from "Do Not Give ANYone Online Your Real Name" to "Scan Us Your Photo I.D. Or We'll Ban You."

He says it as if that 35% were deciding to just pay medical bills out of pocket instead, when in reality they were probably too broke to make use of the insurance after deductibles, copay and 80% percent coverage, so they just didn't go to the doctor, didn't buy prescriptions. I know that happens.

I fixed the typo on watercress, but the preview won't update. It's a WIP, so if there's a food or invasive substance you don't see coming up, let me know and I might add it. (It might already be in there and the randomizer is just not picking it.)

Psst. Hey. Mister Prez. Buying things from anywhere? Is literally what money is for. It's not a deficit. It's giving actual tangible value to the imaginary numbers we've all agreed upon. If you don't ever USE it to BUY things, it's pointless. So please stop calling the purchase of goods a 'deficit.'

A coworker give me a bag of chips that he didn't want, saying 'they were too hot' for him, so I got excited because I love hot things. Y'ALL. I have spaghetti sauce in my fridge that's spicier than these. Heck, I even have ketchup that's spicier. Granted, it's jalapeño ketchup, BUT STILL...

The thing that baffles me most about Trump's 36% approval rating isn't that it's "so low," but rather than it implies that 72% of his base still thinks he's doing a good job.
