Borderlands 4:
O bom: excelente movimentação, slot machines every where.
O ruim: não tem nenhum personagem engraçado ou carismático como o 1 e 2, não tem quase nenhuma arma com efeito bizarro-surpreendente, relação figura-fundo muito confusa.
Na minha avaliação, não vale o preço full.

When you haven't ridden a bike since childhood and are suddenly allowed to make bike parking design decisions.
We don't allow interpretation for car parking design, so why do we allow for ignorance in bike parking design?

Jair vai ao médico, diz q está deprimido. Não conseguiu se reeleger, nem dar o golpe, nem matar o Lula.
O médico diz: “O tratamento é simples. O grande palhaço Pagliacci está na cidade, assista ao espetáculo. Isso deve animá-lo”
Jair se desfaz em lágrimas. “Mas, doutor… Eu não posso sair de casa"

In Brazil we have a bard that chases the former president around casting Vicious Mockery
a hora que o bolsonaro ouve o trompetista tocando a marcha fúnebre e decide ir embora
depois você consegue ouvir ele tocando jair embora enquanto os jornalistas falam

Imagine if that car park was a town square instead, the multiplicity of things it could be used for.

Reportagem minha no @estadao.com.br: como o declínio na habilidade de digitação da geração Z é sintoma de algo muito maior do que apenas o uso de smartphones em substituição aos computadores: é uma alteração na forma de pensar, causada pela lógica dos vídeos curtos, redes sociais e IA. Link 👇

My roommate saw me put more cheese onto a frozen pizza & it was like I unlocked something in him. I saw the wheels turning as he realized we don't have to settle for the default amount of cheese the pizza overlords offer us. What goes onto the frozen pizza is in our control. We have the power.

I spent the last 2 days on Capitol Hill with @gamaofficial.bsky.social and @ttgda.bsky.social, asking for tariff relief. Sixteen of us collectively had dozens of meetings and drop-bys with Congressional staff. We heard over & over that it makes a difference to hear from their constituents. 1/ 🧵

The Mrs once, as an adult, didn't know how to ride a bike. I taught her how and we got her a series of Tern ebikes. Nowadays, she's a cargo hauler, leaving the car at home and thinking nothing of it.
