“Ok, ok, hear me out here. My ancestors were so absolutely mad in a landscape so absolutely bonkers that the most powerful empire at the time (Rome) chose to *build a wall to keep us out rather than subjugate us*
“Now, let’s try this again. I’m *Scottish*”
I mean, the point still stands.
“If this is you, please wash your hands before preparing my food. No judgement. Just… wash.”
“Kill Al!” they chant as they leave the office wielding staplers and wire wastebaskets.
I panic, grabbing elbows and shirts and shouting, tears in my eyes.
“No! It’s the font! It’s the font! San-serif makes a lower case L look like an I!”
I couldn’t stop them.
I just hoped Albert could run fast.
Yepper.
Blocked, whether it’s AI generated or not, whether the guy made it or not, it’s just too much shmuck muck.
The guy is using a name that’s not his, claiming imagery which isn’t his, which may or may not be real to start…
It’s a cavalcade of horse shit on parade.
“Get back out there and don’t you *dare* come back until you get a pack of cigarettes!”
This is not a politics based account. I don’t see that as healthy so I don’t harp on it. (‘Cause we all see what’s going on anyway)
But guys, I’m old enough my childhood home had a rotary phone.
And in all this time I’ve never once mistakenly did a particular WWII era salute.
Not. One. Time.

Amazing to me how every single “them better days” person, bar none and without exception, are people who never lived in “them better days” for even a single second of their conscious life.
Sometimes it’s not even a game I give two rat’s asses about, and I’ll *still* watch them play it as it’s their interactions that make it fun.
This is me watching Fisk, Fooster, and Olaf video game videos.
I’m *not* a video game video watcher. I *am* a massive player of games, but never saw value in watching some guy play them (and 99% of those guys end up being asshats).
But those three are fun, funny, and very much friends.
Let me be clear: I’m not a language or grammar snob. I don’t care if you mispronounce something, or don’t know a word, or whatever.
Hell, I thought genre was pronounced “jen-reh” for years.
But “anyways”, “literally”, or mouth noises will SUMMON ME AS A WISP OF ANGRY SMOKE FROM YOUR DRAINS
Me, talking to myself like a goblin in the dark, after a podcast tells me ‘and their jaws fell LITERALLY to the floor’
“Your next sentence better be about how they immediately called a doctor about this terrible medical issue or imma be pissed…”
Post the cover of a book you love from the '90s
Pop-ups moved from being a website annoyance to a core feature of every damned program.
Open the app for the first time->”want to review us?” “Sign up for pro” “click here for AI”
Dude. I haven’t even *entered the primary UI yet*
Hello there, long time no see. Here are some floppy disks I finished today. #pixelart #vaporwave #lofi #retro
Hmmm. I think I sense a pattern… my finely-honed deductive skills tell me you like…
Games that start with U
Anchorhead and Dishonored. A cultured individual!
Starflight on yours as well!
Nice. Always been one of my favorites, but you never really hear about it.
800 planets, 270 systems, diplomacy, combat, secrets, a twist ending, all in 2 360kb disks.
And written in Forth(?!)
And the Genesis port was somehow *really good*
My nine games.
As with John, one was missing that I was head over heels about (Might and Magic III: Isles of Terra).

GROW tall as a skyscraper!
If it wins, I will STOMP and ATOMIC BREATH the parliament of YOUR CHOICE!*
🦖🏙️
*Stompings may be scheduled for off-peak hours. Parliamentary selection based on greatest demand. Atomic breath may contain allergens and are not suitable for under-13s.
I will complete a series of stunts if Godzilla as a Young Man Named Mike gets anywhere near the Hugos!
If on the voting list at all, I will video my best Godzilla ROAR and post it here!
If longlisted, I will ROAM Glasgow in an inflatable dinosaur suit!
If it gets to the shortlist, I will...
You know, I have to say I enjoyed the Dredd movie (the recent one, not the Stallone one).
But it failed, I guess.
And now I know why:
No T-Rex Judges were in it.
Hollywood, take note! Go f&@king big, or go home!
My mother once made me call and threaten a mafia guy (like, THE mafia) because… I don’t know, I was the “man” of the family or something?
I was maybe 16, 110 pounds soaking wet, and played with computers in a dark room like a goblin.
Oddly, it worked as we didn’t see that guy again.
Oddly, one worked in the nuclear program in some capacity. Had something to do with little missiles dotted around Long Island that they would—get this—raise on display and have picnics around as an event.
The other worked on the rail road… all the love long day, I think.
lol! That dog has one single expression and it’s a cute squished puggy wide-eyed one.
That’s barely even *a start*. Hardly a *beginning*. Scarcely a *snack*.
(Or so every dog in the world would tell you)
I figured you couldn’t have *not* known, but when I saw it… I was like, wow, how did this pass Apple’s supposed checks.
I’ll see if I can report it as well. Who knows. Maybe the process will be faster if users report it as a scam/copy/whatever the report function allows.
Campbell as old Elvis saying: "We're gonna kill us a mummy."
Y'all need to watch BUBBA HO-TEP, starring Bruce Campbell (based on the @joerlansdale.bsky.social novella). Elvis is still alive and living in an East Texas rest home. His best friend, played by Ossie Davis, says he's JFK. And there's a mummy on the loose. It's also Campbell's best performance.
This game is about to release into Early Access TODAY and I have a spare giveaway key. I'll post it into the replies for anyone to grab once this post reaches 500 reposts
