fucking Ice Poseidon offered to take me out on a date for $50.

I proceeded to spend like three hours watching him play crypto plinko and then he lost a coin toss and paid me almost $500. Also his cooking made me sick.

Honestly I really like the Wilco song it's based on

It seems alright for self reflection, but astrophrenology is weird.

I always thought the hypothesis that the horns were exclusively ornamental was ridiculous. Like, they're practically aimed at t. rex's stomach

My 4th grade teacher stopping the class and demonstrating 4 quarts = a gallon to make me look stupid for doubting it.

So most salaries are based on your position in the social hierarchy and it’s never been about work, right? in c/neurodiverse@hexbear.net

Supposedly Take Two forced Gearbox to rush the DLC under threat of funding cuts.

I don't think I can list all of the bugs (because the list is 3x longer than the patch notes), the game is essentially unplayable for most people- including Russians who got rug pulled on the day of release by having the entire game region locked without warning. ~~Regional pricing is also marking up the DLC as more expensive than the game itself.~~ Regional pricing was very quickly fixed.

Now the game is getting review bombed and lots of people are just refunding &/or down patching since the game is broken even without buying the DLC.

Kinda bummed about this. Even the original coder for the game came out and admitted they butchered it.

I thought it was a wrist-mounted loop to feed the web through before I saw your comment. I just assumed the other arm was rotating the spool from the other side.
