Live your life so that when you die, no one digs through your emails and discovers that time you woke up at 3am and emailed yourself “skin is part of brain ?!”

Oblivion is great because it asked the hard questions, like: “What if you could level up WRONG”
What if going up a level made everything worse? What if having fun interacting with the world eventually softlocked you and bricked your save? #gamedev
I’m only talking about Elder Scrolls here and nothing else. I liked the appearance of Oblivion but disliked the grinding you had to do to level up well. I liked Skyrim because its levelling system was more sane, but its drab colouration. Got really annoyed by the bugs in the game.

Fight the devil and win; better things are possible
The one thing I do appreciate about the US is that no other culture I have ever encountered would produce a folksong where the devil challenges a kid to a duel in an obvious morality play about hubris and then the kid just absolutely kicks his ass and wins the fiddle

Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

Introducing the Infinity-Year Mortgage. You just pay interest forever! It’s like rent you pay to the bank, and there’s not even a paper thin notion that they’ll maintain the property for you. Also rent laws don’t apply to it.

I blame video games for consistently over selling the player on how easy it is to grow food, how much land you’d need, and how many gold pieces you’d make from selling tomatoes.

On Threads, the usual suspects are telling ppl about to lose SNAP benefits to just start a garden. As a gardener, I had to laugh. You need at LEAST an acre of land to feed a family of 4. Start-up costs are enormous. But yes, subsistence farming on the balcony of your rental apartment is the answer

When I was living in the Netherlands I had to go to an office in Den Haag to pick up my residence permit. So in a strictly literal sense European authorities have already sent one American to the Hague. Don’t let them tell you it can’t be done.

Establishment Democrats baffled at how big business caved to Trump.

“The Titans of Industry always seemed so supportive each time they cut us a check” said Democrats.
Kamala Harris on MSNBC now saying she “always believed titans of industry” would be guardrails for democracy but now—shocker—she reports that turns out they’re not. Only, she still’s waiting! “At some point they’ve got to stand up.” This kind of willful naïveté & denial doesn’t need airtime.

Any tutorials on how to write Bluesky bots? I’m going to write one that just tracks when the ISS Piss Tracker posts that the tank is 69% full, so we know when to say ‘nice’
The piss tank on the ISS is now 69% full.

Always text in full sentences with punctuation. That way if it’s ever read back to you in court the jury will just assume it’s fake

"Political violence" is a term that exists to suggest a moral distinction between "violence against politicians" and "violence by politicians" - so that one can be condemned while the other can be normalized. Obviously, no such distinction exists in reality: violence is violence.

Some jackass at my office keeps switching the bathroom soundtrack from bird noises to waterfall. Waterfall’s fine if you just have to piss, but you need birds if you’re taking a dump
