I suppose I should introduce myself before people start flagging me as a bot.
This is the more political account for @6sidedgames.bsky.social.
Still getting up and running, so mind the bump.

You know you're working too much when you have your guts literally stuffed back where they belong and your first thoughts are, "work is gonna suck tomorrow."

Surgery update for those that care:
Slept through the night, though the way I have to sleep doesn't mesh well with my arms. Pinky finger was tingly when I woke up.
Pain is low, except when I coughed after I woke up. Range of motion is mostly returned, if I'm careful about it.

Lotsa cool stuff in here.
Long ago on the hell site I made long list of historically interesting things to use in dnd ttrpgs and I'll start dragging them over here starting with
2000 years-old sapphire ring presumably belonged to Roman emperor Caligula, depicting his fourth wife Caesonia.

I was told that the pain blockers they used would dissipate after 10 hours or so and I would hurt more today than yesterday.
I am sure they dissipated, but I'm not hurting worse than I did yesterday evening.
Funny how those things work out.
I've not even grabbed my Rx they sent in.

steam is apparently allowing "this game had AI in it that it didn't disclose" as a valid return statement, so if you or anyone you know actually paid $70 for slop, get that money back
Insulting to the players, insulting to the IP, insulting to the medium, the developers. And the craft itself. Fuck you executives who pushed this garbage.

Just got home from the surgery. Drive sucked, but not as bad as I thought it would. The pain isn't that high, honestly, outside of when I'm having to do things like pick something up. Walking isn't too bad.
All in all, not nearly as bad as I was expecting so far.

Been out of surgery for 2 hours. Appetite has mostly returned, but throat is dry, sore, and I'm hurting, but no painkillers needed yet.
I'll probably need them before I go to sleep, though.

People are bitching about being banned over things that Bsky has made clear they will be banned over.

Maybe don't quote things that could be construed as a threat or talk about feeding people to woodchippers?

Oppy, I've joined a cult! Pacific Drive's Whispers in the Woods DLC has me flinching at crash-test dummies and the radio, but it's okay, because my station wagon screams whenever anything tries to grab it. @ironwood.bsky.social knocked it out of the park.

The Whispers in the Woods DLC is the perfect excuse to return to Pacific Drive, and its horror is worth the pain of its new systems.

Having worked with executives before, this is true.
Every office has an executive tier whose emails are like:
saw on news , , can we replce complianc dept with web 3
and a worker tier whose emails are like:
Dear Jim,
First of all, I *love* this idea! Unfortunately, I spoke with Legal and identified a few issues with this approach. For starters…

I get that some people never liked the person who ends up being outed as abusive—but saying so often feels dismissive of those who genuinely loved their work or who they seemed to be.
Here's a thing that I despise: When someone is outed as an abuser, TERF, terrible human, and ppl start going "I never liked them anyway" "I never found them funny" "They never wrote good things to begin with" and seriously shut the hell up. All of that is just to position you are superior and (cont)
