Here it is, what needs to change in the Last Best and Final offer (LBFO) — all in one place. Let’s come together. Let’s get this deal done. #VideoGameStrike #SagAftraStrong

I love this. I always like to assume the dialogue / script as written is perfect. As a percormer, I don’t have to judge its authenticity. That’s what I’m here bring.

Ex. from Breaking Bad:

“Have you given any thought to sending him on a trip to Belize?”

-Saul Goodman

Silly line. GRIM meaning.

Lots of stuff in here to unpack, but I fully support everything the SAG-AFTRA interactive negotiating committee is fighting for!

What a fantastic pair of games. I wish I could mind-wipe and play both games all over again for the first time. Glad you enjoyed them!

Let's do something different than we did 2016-2020.

We already know it's an outrage. The decisions coming from the top should come as neither shock nor surprise.

Waste no breath on debates. They will not change.

Let's turn to our communities. Unite. Grow strong. Fight the fights that matter.

Unfortunately, he knows exactly what he's doing - it's a stupidly effective tactic. He intentionally invokes the salute and claims plausible deniability. Bullies are talented at provoking outrage from targets and snickers from the in-group - a smirk that says "you can't prove I did anything wrong".

- but at least in a cerebral space where being bodiless is the norm, it’s easier to feel euphoria and excitement.

This potential discovery may be a key to being less clumsy / accident prone and developing the proprioception needed for physical coordination - like yoga or dance!

- like reality had a backstage I could allllmooost peek behind.

After posting this, I stumbled upon Depersonalization / Derealization - and w/ your mention of it, sounds like it’s worth looking into.

Out-of-Body means somatic detachment, too - joy as second-hand and more cerebral. Def a QoL issue-

Wow, thank you for sharing, Jett! Brains are def quirky. I’m endlessly fascinated with “normal” experiences not, in fact, being the norm.

Kid-you, too? The world never felt “real” even as a young kid - like, I would laugh uncontrollably (& disruptively) at how absurd and surreal everything felt -

Anyone else feel like they spend more time in a third-person POV than they do seeing through their own eyes?

Like an out-of-body experience where you’re floating some distance away while watching yourself move and exist in the world.

Being on social media - especially during crises - is like playing an extended game of Two Truths and a Lie.

Be sure to fact check before sharing! I’m coming across a lot of misinformation and speculation.

I have a similar attitude of not expecting the role, though I like to frame it as, “I have been booked for this one day to play this character, and then my work here is done. If I get called upon to play this character again, it will be a new chance to play.”

I’m genuinely confused about the medical revelation that alcohol is highly linked to cancer.

I was always under the impression that this was conventional knowledge.

I guess I was walking around with some majorly unverified assumptions up til this point?

It’s a game-changing perspective!

AMAZING example!!! That was the only line of dialogue I recognized from the series before I started watching it.

2025 resolution: Perform each audition as if it’s the best scene in the story.

Even if it’s “just” Guard #2.

ESPECIALLY if it’s just Guard #2.

Poor Licka Tesla (under the care of Eata Jimsok) thought they lost because their team wasn’t good enough and the other team was better.

If they sign this, they want to know if they get a trophy, and feels good the collector prolly knows what it’s like to suck so much.

There are so many different ways that could go, but YES

And I also can’t look at a perpetually boxed toy without thinking of Stinky Pete from Toy Story. I didn’t buy packaging - I bought what’s inside.

I’m the same way! I like things in packaging, and I tend to keep old boxes - but the key point for me is to *use* them!

Don’t play with your toys and your games - keep them in the box! Those are Collectors’ Items!

Hold onto them long enough, and someday you can sell them at a high price (to someone else who intends to hold on to them long enough to sell at an even higher price)!

“Don’t get rid of that - it might be worth something someday”

I feel like this line of thinking is inevitable for just about anything you can imagine in whatever stage of capitalism we’re in.

It’s becoming an increasingly radical act to *consume* in a consumerist world.

Just waiting for the GERD to ger back dern.

I wonder what level of energy is worth spending on playing “scientific method” for identifying symptom-sources and energy-boosters.

The determined part of me wants to fight it - solve it - fix it - power above it.

But the tired part wants to enjoy what energy-gifts I have.

How to budget the 🥄s?

I have created so many rules to offset flare-ups that can last anywhere from hours to weeks. Some rules can be super reliable until one day they aren’t. Safe zones switch to penalty zones. And vice-versa.

Sometimes chasing down the patterns feels like trying to read my horoscope in the breadcrumbs.

For folks who manage their #spoons:

When you’re troubleshooting flare-up triggers, how much is acceptance of the chaos vs. playing detective?

Sometimes I think I’ve cracked the case, only to get a series of exceptions that contradict my findings.

How much is random vs. replicable?

For 2025, I’m thinking maybe of releasing my pressures of external validation.

Does that sound dumb?

idk i’ll probably pick a different intention
