I was chatting with a friend and tried to convey how crippling a really bad day (for me at least) can be. I needed tangible examples that really drive the point home. So I started making a list....
Yesterday I posted a picture of the tower I made while waiting for my friend to get back. Last night we worked together to extend the tower to new heights....

I’m not sure if this counts as a “patient gamer” because I played them to death years ago…but I’ve been playing both again recently and they’re just perfect little games with a ton of replayability.

I worked for a small marketing company in college and the completely humorless owner told me go through the storage room and only keep 2 of each catalog.
We had a few from a company called Reich Paper. I took one and brought it into the office.

Fuck off, Hamas. You’ll notice that the protests were anti-genocide and pro-PALESTINIAN, not pro-Hamas. Nobody wants you in power, we want freedom for the citizens you pretend to represent while flying private jets to Qatar.
Just because we hate the Israeli government doesn’t mean we support yours.
I don’t think it’s a witch hunt to call it into question, though. I feel bad for the voice actor they hired but what they showed of it is remarkably similar to Johansson’s iconic voice from Her.
It’s akin to (though not nearly on the same level) as having a voice that says “it’s-a-me, Vincenzo! Wahoo!” and saying it’s just a coincidence that it sounds like Mario
A big part is commercial real estate. There’s a lot of investments tied up in it and while it affects most people with a lot of money, many mutual funds (401k, etc) are tied up in it. So we’re basically keeping it alive because money.
Unless you want to push back (clearly you don’t), I wouldn’t even acknowledge the topic or what about the topic makes you uncomfortable
“Hey man, this is a bar conversation. I don’t feel comfortable talking about stuff like this at work.”
I work in the same office as my best friend and I’ve told him similar - even though our politics are very closely aligned. Yes, I agree it would be funny if Trump shit his pants when he falls asleep in court. But I don’t want people to hear us talking about that

On social media we have these huge conversations where nobody involved has any actual experience. They're just repeating what other people said. Isn't that literally insane?
And when you have a billion people doing this, that’s a lot of insanity. Like, world-spanning plague-level insanity.
