Congrats – you're sober. It will take a while for your body to remember how to metabolize anything that isn't sugar from alcohol, so you're going to be pretty ravenous soon. Eat plenty. You can expect your coordination and balance to improve in a couple of weeks. In two months, you might start sleeping like a normal person. Full recovery will take years, though. It’ll be depressing. And it’ll be boring. Don’t expect any further rewards or handclaps. This is how normal people are all the time.

Getting through kiwami 2 I can see why they kiwami'd this one, not a huge spoiler to say but in like a dragon you visit pretty much all the places here in that game so it's easier to justify this game not to mention yakuza 2 being stuck on ps2 and all. I don't know if 3 would be that hard since once you got kamarocho then you're half done in the hub and 4 is all kamorocho 5 is were it has more areas but as with all these games you always head back to kamorocho anyway.

I know that it's slop-brained but I want to see a superhero story with actual realism for once. Superpowers exist for reasons xyz, it ultimately doesn't matter I'm willing to suspend my disbelief for the magic bullshit. How did powers come into being? What effects did it have on the development of society if nuclear level threats are something humanity has had to deal with for potentially hundreds of years? How is damage from kaijus dealt with? I want to see the ways society would fundamentally alter if this shit actually happened and it was actually taken seriously. Fuck it, take different countries and see how different reactions and actions shape how their society handles it. I'm sure stories like it exist but they always end up full of or they just never take thoughts to any actual conclusions and I want the writer to be cool for once

The change from having a work I can walk to to not has affected my fitness level but not my walking pace. I’m not getting winded but it’s still kinda funny to walk at what is a leisurely pace to me and get sweaty and have my heart rate get pretty high.

nobody looked at the cool video about pantograph mills I posted

Got deep into anbennar lore and Aelnar is really easily most fucked up and scary, elf zionist ass faction (luckily they canonically got reduced to 1 floating castle)

I may have finally gotten a job, but it’s a seasonal position so I’m making an effort to still apply and take the odd interview.

Does anyone else hate when rejection emails always have the “we received soooo many applications” bullshit? Like is it a demoralization technique, how is this necessary?

To me it reads “We’re spoiled for choice. Fuck you.” and people wonder why there’s a youth unemployment problem? Because you need to meet 100% of the qualifications and beat out hundreds if not thousands for any given job.

I saw a cool bird today. It surprisingly wasn't scared of me at all so I could take a few pictures, and it only left after I had finally taken a good one (seen below).

There are parts of When serfs stood up in Tibet that read like Tom Lehrer wrote them

Posting under a bunch of random shit and seeing who gets mad

young squirrels are too brave. one just took a few steps in through my window but freaked out when i gasped and ran right back outside. the older squirrels know not to come inside so I was really surprised

Having to speak in coded language about basically every topic is starting to get really mentally burdensome. Marxism is great for becoming a moral agent and being conscious of yourself and the world, but it's extremely lonely when you can see what the problem someone has and can't guide them to the truth because they'll either ignore you, misunderstand the point or superficially pretend to understand it, or attack you in some form.

If the USSR were in the mix today then shit would be so different. They'd have invented a space vacation destination. FOSS would make silicone valley impossible. China would have a buddy. America couldn't bully people. The world would be a little bit happier

Chicken jockey!

Stormtroopers in super space hell when they see vader goes to jedi heaven

"Ain't no rule says the dog can't become Pope"

Hearing the late Jessica Walter in my head "Do you want ants? Thats how you get ants!" I spilled coffee everywhere last night, basically smacked that cup down. Still cleaning up the splatter!

The 10th star wars movie should start with aboleth/yuuzhan vong/the griss gather up all stormtroopers, declare them cringe, and kill them so hard they get wiped from existence that no obe remembers them
