SUPERJUMP is nonprofit, and they cover a lot of indie games.

So, the prior comment about the woman who raised a pet beaver… lemme guess, every time she takes a shower, by the time she opens the door, every non-stationary object in the house has been dragged in front of the bathroom door.
- Comment on If you are a guy living with a woman you know THIS 4 weeks ago:
Brothers, I am AFAB, and this picture still reminds me of one of my most infuriating roommates.
Trust me, she’d annoy me a little too.

Seriously?? That’s the price of FIFA’s bribe? Not, idk, “Call off your ICE ghouls at the next match, because we need to sell tickets?”

- Comment on Americans are holding onto devices longer than ever and it’s costing the economy 1 month ago:
Yank here. I dunno what these fucks are complaining about. All my phones have either been cheap, or refurbished secondhand. Hell, I even learned how to fix my own so I could make them last as long as possible. And when the OS gets too slow, I start throwing out old apps like I’m bailing a leaky ship. My average phone’s lifetime is nearly five years.
You know what this smells like? Smells like rich people complaining about poor people being pragmatic and sensible. “Decreasing productivity by 1/3 of a percentage point.” Spoiled little prince can eat my entire ass.

Sent this to a friend. Xe laughed and said, “If they have an issue with it, they can come find me and tell me. Good luck, BTW, we make up less than 1% of the population. If people that rare are pissing you off, find a fucking hobby.”

You can’t deny, even though it was literally just straight American imperialist propaganda, it was a fun game series. And my lesbian ass definitely had a huge girl crush on Tanya.

Command and Conquer?
- Comment on They say word-of-mouth marketing is the most effective form of marketing. What games did you (not) enjoy that came well-recommended by friends to you, and why did they recommend it to you? 2 months ago:
I beg to differ. It was a lifechanging game for me. I can trace a half a dozen major life decisions and events to the people I met through the Undertale fandom. It has some deep personal sentimental value, too.

- Comment on Meta is now a defense contractor 7 months ago:
I might just be a massive god damn nerd, but I would rather build my own with an old Pixel, a printer, and a Pi. If I can’t be up to my elbows in its guts, from board to code, then it isn’t mine.

Right? AI-generated pictures of Scarlett Johansen as a flight attendant praising Jesus, or an African kid making sculptures of Jesus out of trash. And all the comments just being ‘Amen’ spam. It’s just fucking dystopian.
- Comment on Meta is now a defense contractor 7 months ago:
Not maintaining artificial connections with people who would reach out to me if they actually gave a damn about me has genuinely been liberating.
I like how Discord- and Slack-like socials are set up. It’s just more natural. Instead of a feed, it’s a forum. It feels more like a physical place, with couches for discussion, corners of the room where people take conversation, and a hall outside for privacy. And if you understood that metaphor, then you know how I feel.
And if I don’t like a server, I can just… leave. Never have to run into them again, but still have access to friends. No holes in the conversation where an obvious block or ignore leaves gaps.

Ditto what the others said. You might have just rolled bad RNG (DNA) at character creation (birth) and just gotten stuck with immunity to NSAIDs. It happens.

Jesus, fuck, at that point I would pack my quilts and sleep outside. Because fuck that.

Same. Fiction or fact, this is funny enough and harmless enough to just shrug and say, “He must be a wizard, whoever he is.”

Yeah, this dude looks like he’d space a dude who just killed the entire court room to get his death sentence commuted.

hehehehe You know, it’s hilarious that you say that. Nobody ever realizes that they’re talking to a starving homeless person on the internet when they meet one, do they?

Me, bottom 10%, making coffee and finding my new pair of pants in a dumpster: Yeah, man, you said it.
