Ugh, there’s a name I hadn’t heard before - Indie Gala. I used to have been wheeling and dealing a lot on getting games on sales for 10 years and they just look like an insultingly cheap place down to the games they push out.
It’s like autotuning, is the vocalist’s voice going in ways that is completely impossible? That’s a sign.
Oh so you want to lazily make money.
Yeah, it’s called effort. Doing shit through AI is not effort.
Not really. But I am getting awfully tired of engaging in arguments and trying to explain things as best as possible, as my therapist sits there not understanding. That’s the part that’s exhausting me.
My start was all the way back when WebTV was around in 1996. I was using IRC-like chat rooms provided by Talk City. There, we had fun trivia games, some friendly chatter and vice versa.
Then, I moved on to MSN Chat sometime in the early 2000s. I would make my home there until the day MSN decided to make MSN Chats subscription based sometime around 2004 and I ended up leaving. These chat rooms were where I had some of my earliest periods roleplaying.
From there I would go to MySpace and I stayed there for quite a bit of time, felt like maybe 5 or so years before I just gradually lost interest. By that point in the middle, when Facebook got out of its college-only phase, I joined about a couple years after that in what felt like 2008-ish.
In 2007 also, I was in DeviantArt chat rooms and I was there up until 2014. I would join Gaia Online too in 2007 until 2016.
I didn’t start using things like Reddit until mid-2010s. I got into Second Life by 2013. Didn’t use Twitter until much later and left long before Musk even got it.
Oh and somewhere around my ventures of the 2010s, I did in fact hop into mIRC servers for a bit.
And finally by about 2023, I jumped into the Fediverse for the first time via Lemmy, discarding Reddit for good (not that it mattered because I kept getting shadow-banned anyways). I do have a TikTok but it’s only for associating with a friend on there. I’ve never regularly used AOL or Yahoo!'s chat rooms. I never had ICQ but I did have AIM, MSN and Yahoo!'s respective messengers. I’ve gotten into Instagram for a cup of coffee before bowing out like a couple days.
So, these days, all I use now is PieFed, Facebook, Second Life and Discord (if one can even call it social media).
I don’t think they should.
They were a product of their time. Nobody back then even knew how to play it and surely nobody now especially wouldn’t know.
Either you pirate or you buy from bandcamp.
Gods, I fucking hate time-travel/multiverse plots. They’re so overdone.
They’re basically used for when the writers are too cowardly to stick to decisions they want to make. Like killing key comic book characters. Nobody stays dead! Except for characters nobody cared too much about or has lost popularity. Spin-offs are different and can be used to tell stories of maybe what things would be like if X character isn’t around anymore. That’s fine.
But interjecting lazily implemented multi-verse, alternate universe, time traveling wrenches in on-going mainline stories? Fuck no.
Not for me.
The first thing I notice that goes on a mouse, is left click. When unintentional double-clicking happens. It’s frustrating as hell.
If they all had almost nigh-limitless amounts of money. So, they can just become Google.
That’s why I sometimes say that this world is manufactured. It’s manufactured in a way to benefit the few, but fuck over the many.
That’s not how it should be.
It is what you make of it.
Obviously a dream job is make lots of money but do very little. That’s what makes us hate the rich so much, the core reason.
Everyone has that show they can bring up and they’ll tell you how one season derails the momentum a series has gone.
Somehow. Then Hollywood decided to go and revamp it in 2017. Then when the damage has been done, the IP has been releasing retro stuff to try and recover.
Which is fair, but you could also say the same thing for the Avengers. They both started out weirdly like making you think “what the hell do these guys have in common with eachother?” at first. Overtime, as comics developed, they became more established. Then it became more accepted and the rest is history.
But sometimes just pairing them up with say, my example, it makes it even weirder to where nothing meshes.
I have zero confidence in voting for anybody anymore. The democrats help approve funding for the very department that’s been upsetting tons of lives for the past couple months.
Sorry, what’s this lesser of two evils thing again? One is passive evil and the other is chaotic evil. There are no winners.
Laugh louder.
“HHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAAAAA HAAAAAAAAAA!”
Ted Cruz being the Zodiac Killer. Politicians don’t need to be serial killers, they do a lot more everlasting damage on everyone they’re governing.
To try and control impulse shopping, I immediately grab an item I think I want.
I will continue shopping for things I actually want/need, until I look at or feel for the thing I originally grabbed. I will lose sense of interest of grabbing it and put it back.
It takes practice and time. Especially works if you know, are low on money anyways. The idea of this is, to get you thinking about what it is about that thing that made you want it and whether it would have any use or make you happy having it.
If it doesn’t after the time you’ve been having it around, be it holding it or in the cart, then it wasn’t meant to be. It was simply an impulse.
While I have a very jaded relationship now with their music, Disturbed’s What Are You Waiting For.
Dee Snider’s Stand
While we are gaining people who’re seeking refugee from the claustrophobic-like suffocation that is the surface web of social media. We’re taking some on the chin with knowing that some of those ‘refugees’ are assholes who probably have been a prick elsewhere. They just don’t care about owning to the problem.
