I don’t watch babish because he stopped making the videos about a food in a show or movie.

I love Philly d, I like him better than traditional news channels, but watching just made me depressed.

Dairy queen nerds blizzard. You can fake it with a sonic blast but it’s not the same.

Same. Macos pronounced like tacos is so much better.

Copy of the south park episode on Mormons?

Every CEO I’ve worked for, I could do the technical part of their job. I couldn’t do the political part because I’m results and data driven. Their prideful fuckers who yell louder and demand satisfaction and wield their ability to fire you. Fuck CEO 's.

9/10 of my graduate professors couldn’t profess their way out of a paper bag. The actually good teachers were limited because they didn’t research enough. Fuck grad school.

Don’t lie that you’re 25. In my experience, there are 2 ways to handle stupid questions you don’t wanna answer.

1. agree and amplify with bullshit. “yeah, 40 and unmarried. I’m so lonely. I scream and cry myself to sleep every night. I drink 5 gallons of vodka just to make it thru a shift.”.
2. change the frame. “why are you so interested in my marital status? Are you looking for someone? I’m flattered but you’re not my type.”.

Going to loud parties with more than 5 people. 1) loud things hurt my ears and give me a headache. 2) can’t hear the person you’re talking to anyways bc of loud. 3) why are there 50 people here? Past 5 ppl, you can’t really talk to people well and the space gets crowded.

Great for you if that’s your thing but not me.

And it dismisses the time component of self hosting. It’s not going to be zero.

I don’t unless people ask. Most people don’t care, so I don’t start with the assumption they’re going to listen. Part of it, I realize now, it’s because I info dump. Wish I had known that before middle age.

When I say they’re overrated, I mean I don’t understand why they’re so popular. They’re not bad but they’re not that good, either. I don’t understand the praise lauded on them. It’s too much relative to their quality.

I can understand if someone loves them in their time. For example, Nirvana was absolutely amazing in their time. However, it’s been 30 years and that sound is a lot more mainstream, but in their day, they were breaking new ground.

But my kids age? Why do people think they’re that good?

Are you cherry picking the good games out of older libraries? I find people do that a lot when remembering. It’s a survivorship bias thing. The good ones get remembered more and the bad one forgotten, so they seem like the population is better.

requires ~10 times the amount of crops per calorie compared to just eating the crops directly

Kind of, kind of not. If fed corn, yes. If pasture raised, no. Humans can’t eat grass. Cows convert grass into food.

Therapy. Looooooooots of therapy.

I got helldivers 2 a week ago.

I’ve had a beard for 10+ years now. I was going thru a really rough period and didn’t do much hygiene. Once I got out of that rut, I kinda liked it. My spouse, who initially said they didn’t like beards, complained when I shaved it.

I’ve always wanted one. I have a baby face and it makes me look older and people take me more seriously.

Nowadays? I’ve never enjoyed mobile gaming. Every time I try, there’s been an absurd paywall or monetization. Once that strikes, I’m out.

You had a different childhood than mine. It was code for “they’re a moron”.

Flossing is self care? I group that under “maintenance”. It’s the same level as going to the bathroom, washing your hands, etc. Self care, to me, is taking time that could be “productive” or doing something required and instead going for a walk or reading a book. It’s a positive act that’s not self damaging. Eating too much ice cream is not self care, but a bite might be.
