I hadn’t used my twitter account in over a year, but today finally deleted all my posts and disabled the account.

I had it for 16 years and thought it’d feel different, but I’ve been so far away from it now I really had no emotions to shutting it down. It was easy, and now I have no ties to that garbage any more.

Alright, Thunder, you need to get back on top of things.

I know you have several people out, but you can do it.

I mean, Ben Carson is a legitimate dumbass.

BUT, he can cut conjoined twins in half. He's good at that.

But on everything ELSE: certified dumbshit.

Maybe the shithole country was the United States we lived in along the way.

Weird how all these headlines showing positive news about the country start showing up NOW vs two or three months ago.

The current totals are 76M for trump and 74M for Harris.

You're not wrong in that more people should have turned out, but lots and lots of people did not want this.

A thin majority of the Americans who voted wanted this.

So did the Pixelfed app just never materialize? It seems like all work shifted over to this Loops app.

"News finally tells truth for once, gets backlash from people who believe in chem trails."

Sooooo....he's walking away free then?

I don't have any trust that friends of trump will face any consequences for anything.

This type of stuff is only going to get worse in the next four years.

Your FFXIV Conspiracy Theories (self.finalfantasyxiv)
submitted 3 months ago by garretble to c/finalfantasyxiv
 

This is largely a silly post, but I'm curious if anyone has any fun conspiracy theories. Like why does Tataru need that knife on her belt? Is it because she's got some NEFARIOUS dealings going on to get all that money?

More so, I just wanted to see if anyone else believes that the Random Mount button isn't fully "random." I swear I see the same handful of mounts summoned more than others. If I see the Manacutter or Yol summoned ONE MORE TIME, I swear...

It’s now been about a month (somehow) since Dawntrail launched, so I assume most of us have finished the MSQ, and I’m curious about your thoughts!

For me, I actually really enjoyed not being the center of attention the whole time. It was a nice palette cleanser from the last ten years. It was fun to tag along see this whole new continent. Of course, things do end up getting more serious than that, and I was impressed they were able to get me to care about all these new people so quickly.

The new dungeons and group content all felt good. I liked that none of it seemed to be pushovers, and myself and my friends died several times figuring out the various boss battles — which is a good thing!

I just finished the story last night so I’m now at the point where there are some new quests which I assume will open up some new content. So I have no opinion there yet.

But what about you all?

 

I’m about halfway through the story at this point, but I’ve really been enjoying these new starting zones.

Something that I never really did with the previous expansions is try and do a lot of side quests as I go. It’s been fun to learn more about these new characters and their cultures.

 

Inject it into my veins.

NOOOO MY DARLING BOY

Four years removed from being a first-round draft pick, Aleksej Pokuševski's tenure with the Oklahoma City Thunder has come to an end.

The Thunder announced on Friday they have waived the 22-year-old forward.

Pokuševski was originally selected with the 17th overall pick in the 2020 draft by the Minnesota Timberwolves, who traded his rights to Oklahoma City in a three-team deal that also involved the New York Knicks. He was the youngest player in that draft class The trade has turned out to be very notable for all three teams involved. Minnesota acquired the draft rights to Jaden McDaniels, while the Knicks got the rights to Immanuel Quickley.

 

I just started using this app today after wading through bug after bug with Voyager. Like many, Apollo was my go-to app for years and years, so it’s natural to gravitate to the one that looks exactly like it.

However, I consume this type of content mostly on my iPad, and often I’m using Stage Manager with an external KB and trackpad. Voyager in this mode barely works, so I’m just making a post here to say thanks for making this app feel great in this mode. 😎

 

This came up in my YouTube recommendations, and it’s pretty fun to watch as a Thunder fan.

 

I really try to not complain about the refs, but that was one of the worst calls of all time.

Chet > Wemby (self.thunder)
submitted 1 year ago by garretble to c/thunder
 

I was at the game tonight, and based off of the fact that Chet got more points and he’s on our team and I’m biased, I officially declare Chet the better player.

This long boi rivalry has officially begun.

(Realtalk: it was very fun to watch both of them play. This is going to be a good season.)
