Coffee, work from home, a somewhat flexible schedule that lets me start a little later if I need to, and strategic use of sick time when I get really out of sync.

Unless you were asking about free time. In which case, it helps to know where all the 24-h and open-way-late businesses are, and to have plenty of hobbies to pass the time while everyone else is busy sleeping.

sounds like the intro to a lengthy cutscene that tries to use lore to explain away why there will only be 4 dungeons in a $70 game

will it be:

• high-quality tasteful images of people uploading terrible garbage memes in a non-sexual manner
• sexually explicit images of people uploading terrible garbage memes
• plain ol scat

I really wish news outlets would stop pretending this is some big mystery. Shit is too expensive.

Being able to say “oh that was x+1 years ago” instead of “x years ago” when reflecting on all my past traumas.

From the article, emphasis mine because the post title was driving me crazy:

The worst projection for climate change in 2023, is that the chance for the average global temperature to rise above 1.5°C has increased to almost 50% for the next five year period between 2022 and 2026.

when did SMS go out of style?

There are tasks and chores my parents used to do on my behalf that I now do myself, like making money, paying taxes, handling health insurance, etc. I guess those make me feel like an adult.

But then there are milestones I thought I would have hit by now that I have not, mainly concerning family life. No kids, no partner, nobody to take care of but myself. If I wanna go out and party, or stay in and play video games all weekend, there’s not really much to stop me. That makes me feel immature.

I wonder if there were 18th century shitposters who turned this into copypasta but subbed in “s” and “ſ” in place of “you” and “thou”

This is kind of sad. I’ve been using the site a fair amount recently to help get through some depressive episodes and the social withdrawal/isolation that come with them. Granted, about 50% of conversations were bots, and 40% were guys just looking for girls to send them nudes, but the other 10% or so was pretty interesting conversations.

I guess this will be the impetus to get back out and socialize IRL again. Or to find a new chat-with-randos service. Or to keep spiraling deeper into depression. We’ll see.

Edit: It was also kinda nice to be treated like a woman without being treated differently for being trans.

This seems to follow a progression

• No ads
• Non-intrusive ads
• Intrusive ads, but you can pay to make them go away
• Intrusive ads, but you can pay to make them less intrusive
• Intrusive ads and you have to pay just to see the content
• Content becomes ads
• Ads pretend to be content (see Dr. Pepper’s “Fansville”)
• Award categories for ads are featured in major award ceremonies
• Award ceremonies just for ads go mainstream

Actually not sure what’s real vs hypothetical at this point.

Oh gosh. Did my critique of ads just become an ad?

lol could they really get away with making a Zelda movie without Link??

I guess I could see it. Like maybe it’s literally a “legend” of Zelda, where the hero is a figure of myth and the story actually centers around other characters many years later. Sorta like Wind Waker, I’m realizing as I’m writing this. Actually, using the Wind Waker trope of making the main character a reincarnation of Link might give them the wiggle room to create a Link with some unique personality.
