That’ll just raise your rent more won’t it?

there's nothing you can vote for that will ever make rent go down and theyll wanna raise it regardless of what happens

also my landlord had a stroke and has more than once sent maintenance people over when we didn't need them, which is weird since usually when we do need them they come by and do nothing. in any case, worried he's gonna die and the property will be sold to the local feudal real estate lords, scott brown most likely, and then my affordable rent will definitely spike into "move" territory

I'm glad I don't have children and will probably die of a heart attack/stroke in the next 20 years. At least my wife will have a few hundred thousand in life insurance to smoke weed/do whatever with until the nukes hit. Just lol at having even a fraction of hope that the future will be anything but an even more hellish nightmare.

That's more of a light novel thing I thought.

Manga naming conventions are more like mashing some cool-sounding words together. Admittedly that's the naming convention for a lot of things.

I've only really messed around with the JCP weaponset in final doomer. it was fun but the WAD I was playing (going down) had a lot of encounters where you were meant to clear packs with rockets and the AOE over time effect of the prism cannon made it a lot harder to make holes. the devastor didn't feel quite as useful as the bfg either. cutting projectiles with the katana was sick though.

BotW taught me that apocalypses are actually not so bad


I do want to have kids someday, a few of my “friends” have brought up their whole “procreating is immoral because your dumb babies will be inheriting a very hosed up earth” thing and to them I say, I want to have kids

I've got a kid on the way. Sucks for them. I can only hope my treasure trove of video game trinkets will be enough for him to forgive me for bringing him into this world. If not, I'll let him beat me in smash brothers.



I'm doing everything I can, folks.

The A button on my old Xbox 360 controller has started to press weird. I opened it up and found that the A nub on the silicone pad has a tear that prevents it from springing back properly. Is there a good way to repair it?

If only there were a whole ton of kids that already exist and need homes, you could have it both ways.

It's easier to be approved to be a foster parent than it is to outright adopt, only the foster parent has absolutely zero rights. Might as well just make your own at that point.

Also whether bringing children into the world is immoral or not remains to be seen, but without my son I would be a drunk and probably homeless right now.

Nah, trap sprung doesn't sound cool enough. Maybe using synonyms or alternate conjugations will make something better, more exciting. Like Springyard Trappers, Coil=Hawks, ReBound & RePursue, or Gotcha Force

Rohmer's Nadja in Paris is such a prescient work in regards to the problems in modern internet culture. The need for her to give herself false permission to participate, the compulsion to look and observe instead of participating, the general passivity. The last lines are an unfavorable omen for things to come in the newer generations raised on internet culture. Worth a watch If you've got 12 minutes.
