Whether you started with a 2600 and a joystick in your hand, an N64 with a blistered palm or building your first PC in your teens, what is that one video game you've played at some point that to this day sits at the top of your list.

I ask because I've been doing a lot of research the last few weeks and Google search has really let me down. I've been finding better results on DuckDuckGo and Bing. Is this a recent thing with Google or am I out of the loop? Any other search recommendations?...

Imagine if we discovered blades of grass experienceed pain when cut - I've had some existential anxiety over shit like this ☠️
Haha this is exactly what I was thinking of - I read this and it scared the shit out of me. Are we all just animals eating each other to survive and we should just.... eat the living things that appear to experience the least distress?
I've wanted to try! I've been grilling vegan burgers at home and replacing some things with tofu when I can. I can see how it'd be easier than a few years ago and definitely want to try like a week and see how I feel!
Because when you're either not aware of the politics or the politics haven't soured yet, you can look up to the people who make a cool product you like. Like Reddit.... or Instagram..... or Google..... or Apple..... or Blizzard..... hell I hate them all now. I can feel the anticapitalism swelling 🤣

I've never been a breakfast person, and I don't wake up hungry. I used to go a few hours without eating anything and then have a breakfast of two scrambled eggs, 1/2 cup of brown rice, and a sliced avocado with some salt or soy sauce. That's a very tasty and healthy breakfast, but I get hungry again within a couple of hours....

According to The Information, Reddit’s revenues were up 38 percent in 2022, but that’s down from the “more than doubling of revenue” it saw from 2020 to 2021.
