Only family member outside my parents I keep in contact with is one of my nephews who I always viewed as more of a brother (he’s 5 years younger than me). Most of the rest of the family isn’t really intentional (except my mom’s side of the family who I never really liked even as a kid) and more just I’m not good at talking to people I have little in common with.

From what I remember people knew about the AI thing for a long time, but forgave it cause it was replaced immediately after release. I think what makes people upset at Lairion now is that they’re trying to dance around the AI problem instead of discussing it directly. They come up with tons of excuses whenever asked instead of just strongly sticking to their choice. It’s like whenever any big company gets called out for doing something stupid. They just do bad PR nonsense instead of saying what they actually mean.

From my understanding that game Where Winds Meet game has something like that.

I was banned for saying rich people and their families should die. So I looked for Reddit alternatives.

I’d have no problem with the show that seems to want the awards be taken seriously remove all or most bigger projects.

I’m seeing this one next weekend when I go visit my gf. I enjoy the series for them just being fun movies. Not amazing by any means, but enjoyable times out at the theater. My gf even saw the second one twice in theaters.

I feel like there should be more companies to add to this boycott than just Microsoft. I don’t follow news enough to know who though.

Graduated high school 12 years ago and never got any further education than that (college, trade school, apprenticeship, or whatever else). It’s far too expensive to risk starting and realizing I hate doing what I wasted money on or that any job that would take the degree pays less than I currently make or just straight up doesn’t exist (even if it did exist when I started education). My current job pays $50k in a small Midwest town which is fine for right now.

My problem is with having to twist my hands and bend my fingers around my hook a lot. Work only allows the cotton gloves they supply which get changed out often due to them getting soaked fast which only makes it colder. They gave me these sleeve things which are extremely tight, but even wrapping them around the ends of the gloves doesn’t stop my hands from freezing.

This is some Tim Sweeny “AI will be in everything” type BS

Tried the Vaseline cause I’m not allowed to wear scaves or masks at work where it’s also cold af. Didn’t work. Same with trying to wear 3 layers of cottom gloves while working which didn’t stop my hands from being in pain from the cold (they get cold faster than anything else on me) and more hinders my ability to work efficiently. I’m only comfortable when in a 70-85° area (or whatever my shower can get to at max heat). Any less and I’m freezing, but I can handle a decent bit more.

I like summer the most cause it’s the only season I don’t feel like shit. Whether it’s allergies, sinuses, or just general hatred for going outside (and no don’t tell me to just put on more layers cause I’m already wearing 5 layers in 8° weather and still freezing my ass off while struggling to move). Doesn’t help that I work in a cooler so spending 8-11 hours in a cold room only to leave into the colder outside isn’t enjoyable. I miss going on walks at local parks, but all I want to do now is get back in bed ASAP cause that’s the warm place.

I listen to podcasts while working. Earbuds in under my earmuffs (I work in the cooler of a slaughterhouse). I still do all my normal work, but at least I’m not bored to tears and having my anxiety attack my brain whenever it feels like it.

And then they blame everyone else when they lose which their supporters eat up like a starving dog.

The Frame is the only one I care about. I was debating on getting a Quest 3 since my Quest 1 is having issues, but this would be a great alternative depending on the price.

Problem is it’s near impossible to convince people in non-swing states to vote if they normally don’t. A lot of people view it as “my vote doesn’t matter cause the other side always wins this state” so you’d have to constantly try to battle that mindset. Doing that for 500,000+ people (that’s just for my state if you wanted to flip it blue or get it close to purple) is asking a lot.

Moon Patrol and Centipede hit the spot every now and then.

I got back in bed cause it’s cold AF outside and at work.

I didn’t realize how much of a difference it made till I got my new job where the restrooms don’t have any gaps. Never felt more secure in a public restroom.

Almost? Tell that to the snowstorm that attacked me yesterday.
