Ball pythons are just so god damn cute, I love those puppy faces.

They do very little when the issue is massive wealth inequality and the hoarding of wealth by very few. This spends around £15 per person. It's doing diddly squat.

This line gets a laugh out of me on every rewatch.

I remember a guy on Reddit asking if boofing yeast would induce this, as he wanted to be drunk all the time but didn't like how expensive alcohol was. I wonder if he ever achieved his goal.

If you haven't played What Remains Of Edith Finch, and you like games with an excellent narrative, treat yourself and get it. It's a short game, you can complete it in an evening, but the story it tells is beautiful.

79 million / 2500 = 31,600

I think at least a few of those people could've kept their jobs.

I was just walking to work one day, when I got heckled in the street by some random guy singing at me:

"Earthworm Jim, you're so much fun to play. Earthworm Jim, you're tall, you're thin, you're gay!"

I've never been more seen.

We have Andrew Christian, Aussiebum, Box, and oh so many more brands. But the main difference is comfort and style.

Need a bigger pouch? We have you covered. Do you get a little clammy down there? Try separate pouches for the bells and whistle. Want to show off? We have the push up bra of underwear. Do you like to walk around the house in your underwear but you have nowhere to put your phone? We have hipster shorts with pockets!

Gay underwear is just superior to the smalls most straight guys wear. They're also more colourful and attractive. Why should women be the only ones wearing nice undergarments?

The original content creator relies on advertising, click-throughs and maybe merchandise sales that you would be denying them by scraping their content. This is the entire argument against Google doing what they've been doing for the past decade. The value of Google, and by extension your rss reader, is generated by other people's content, it has little inherent value on its own as without content, it is useless. Drain the income of content creators for long enough and you no longer have content creators, so now you need another thing to generate content. Enter generative ai.

And thus was the internet of 2024 forged, through stolen content and seeing no value in the creations of people, only desiring more content at any cost, as long as that cost to the platform is zero.

 

I'm still not sure I believe this is real, but loved these games as a kid, glad to be able to return to them.
