either the entire running shoe industry is being run by Sporty Spice through a wormhole to 1998 or the industry straight up has little man syndrome. what the fuck is this and why cant i get normal fucking running shoes anywhere anymore??

ASICS METASPEED SKY TOKYO shoe with attached platform that is so tall it could see over the misguided and racially charged Mexico border wall. It is, in fact, so tall it is likely that every right wing performative masc will be wearing them by day's end.

As I modify Penny's raincoat, I am reminded of a fairly mandatory tool to keep around if you have an exceptionally furry friend. Anything that uses a hook/loop(velcro) closure gets a snap close instead. Couple bucks for a bag of size 16 snaps and this little jig. USED IT SO MANY TIMES

A snap fastener jig for size 15 and 16 snaps. Three arms to hold the different pieces together are shown, similar to the three arms of the US government who are supposed to work together like this jig but instead find themselves mired in fear mongering, hate, and an aggressive pursuit of quashing any and all possible rights for anyone that isnt as pale as the snow.

Hi! I'm Tug. I'm a stay-at-home-dad to 2 teenagers & 1 irredeemably cute Keeshond who posts about games, sports, and said cute Keeshond. I also make content occasionally over on Twitch (twitch.tv/tugboet) which often consists of me being awful at a game and chat lambasting me for it. Welcome in!

Tug holding Penny the Keeshond on his shoulder like some form of long haired parrot. Penny is looking at the camera wondering what you are doing reading this alt-text when trans lives, whom are already a hugely at risk population, are being pushed further and further as objectively evil oligarchs use them as a distraction to rip more and more rights from all of us.

Finished Zero Company today and can firmly recommend it. Great intro to X-Com style turn based tactical shooters wrapped up in a good Star Wars story. It's just fun.

Feeling like my 5head emote today. So much sinus pressure that I'm just constantly weeping tears.

Tug with a grossly enlarged forehead either from sinus congestion or from trying to process all the deflections and redirections the oligarchic leadership of the west uses to diminish the grotesque loss of life in Palestine and the systemic genocide being committed.

Face.

Penny the keeshond looking happily at the camera as it zooms in on her, distracting her briefly from the deeply disturbing fact that systemic promotion of gambling on social media is creating an epidemic among young men that will eventually lead to horrific consequences.

In retrospect, Obsidian getting Pentiment out there into the world before Microsoft exploded really feels like they pulled off the weirdest heist in gaming history.

Just absolutely nothing going on behind those eyes.

Penny the keeshond looking into the distance wondering how it's possible for humanity to still be denying the atrocities being inflicted on Palestinians every single day because despite being a few donuts short of a dozen, even she can plainly see that something needs to be done.

cynical take - 1mil at 70USD is 70 mil. chop off 30% for platform fees, now we're 49mil. Assume the publisher is 100% recoup, that's 9 mil. Then the split after... let's be GENEROUS and say 50/50. Final income for 1mil sales is: * $4.5mil for studio * $44.5mil for pub * $21mil for platform holders

I dont give 2 fresh shits how you feel about piracy, this is the fucking gateway to them blocking sites they dont agree with, sites that are critical, sites that just have *color*. This is yet another slight of hand dont look behind the mirror policy that opens the door to everything you never want

I ranted a bit about this today on stream but I'll repeat the basic premise here again now: If you run or play a #ttrpg, grab indie systems off itch, pick up pdfs of other popular systems and read them. There are SO MANY awesome mechanics out there that you can fold into your games in any system.

Hmm, moving from extraction, adding more PvE content. They would add like.. super powers or something. Maybe some PvP deathmatch or sm. Could call it MARATHON: DESTINY

Oh boy, got to the part in Z-Com with that guy, you know the one, and it was everything I wanted. Cameos can cheapen the experience sometimes but when it comes to showcasing disparate power, no one does it better.

With all the offseason stuff for #SaintsFC women, starting the season with 4 from 6 is great. Definitely should have won today tho, finishing just wasnt there.

if you told me today's #SaitsFC match ended on a 1-2 loss I'd believe you. Seeing the 4-1 scoreline does not fit that match at all.

Cyle Larin is the first #SaintsFC player to win PoTM since Forster in 2016 and the first field player since Gareth Bale in 2006. 3.8m for him AND Ward-Prowse might be the steal of the decade.
