BioShock Infinite and Spec Ops: The Line are the only two games I’ve played that I would consider “art” in the truest sense of the word. Video games in general are creative works, and they all have debatable levels of “greatness”, but those who have played these two know what I mean.

I’m hearing the voice of Jon Stewart echoing in my head, shouting desperately “THIS CAN NOT BE REAL LIFE!” on a daily basis, now

on the one hand, it’s annoying having so many photos of somebody’s cat(s) flooding your feed

On the other, after months of election dread and with at least four more years of misery for everyone who isn’t rich lying ahead of us – sure, bring on the cat photos. Good palate cleanser.

Just wait until the lynchings start and the new justice department can’t be fucked to investigate any of them. Then the real ‘fun’ begins.

apparently grandma thought drugs needed consent to work. Somehow.

Yeah, that’s… what I did after? It sure didn’t go away on its own lmao

In its defense, the symptom I googled most recently like a year and a half ago, did, in fact, turn out to be cancer.

Yes, I’m fine now. But sometimes it’s right.

“while Russian officials warned of escalating global conflict”

lol

furthermore: lmao

Eventually that saber is going to break from metal fatigue.

Agoraphobia by Coletta

Lmao, imagine just now figuring out that morals aren’t important to Republicans.

well it’s too late for that, as I’m already isolated, so again – hopefully I will soon be better at being happy with little to be happy about.

we are so fucked

we are so fucked

we are so fucked

we are so very fucked.

Living in a blue state is irrelevant when your bullshit online can be viewed by anyone on earth and therefore influence others in swing states. If you don’t see how comments like your original one (“don’t vote for kamala, genocide bad”) helped achieve the election outcome you got, I really can’t help you – I can explain it for you but I can’t understand it for you.

This just in: Those who fucked around, found out. More at 11.

We are in the dumbest possible timeline.

I mean, setting up Mullvad too isn’t that hard and compared to a Netflix subscription, it’s paid for itself several times over in the time I’ve had it. But I get that that might not be something your friends are willing to fiddle with.

That said, we’re on Lemmy, in the technology community – I’m reasonably confident that almost everyone here who is going to read your comment has the skills necessary to setup Mullvad and Plex; if not the entire *arr suite, a NAS, and Jellyfin.

Seriously, it’s insane just how little Russian military tactics have changed over the years – “Throw bodies at the problem until it’s no longer a problem” might as well be part of their culture now.

Or, even better, stop giving them your money and get Plex or Jellyfin and return to the seven seas.

that’s unfortunate, as I don’t really have any close friends I’d say I trust or could count on for more than thoughts and prayers. oh well.

sometimes that’s just how it is.

the entire reason I switched to Linux – back in January I asked myself “if I have to fight my operating system to make it work right for me anyways, why pay for the privilege?”

like sure updates break things on Linux too occasionally but at least they don’t reinstall spyware I had to spend a day ripping out after the last update.
