  • The one on the upper right-hand corner of the recommended watch sidebar always manages to sneak past my multiple adblockers. I’m tired of having my eyes seared by massive anime tiddies (Queen’s Blade ads) just because I sometimes watch anime and the monkeys working in the algorithm machine greenlit softcore pornography to be plastered all over their platform. But I sure as shit ain’t paying them $170 a year to get those idiots to stop.


  • They rennovated it too. How much could a starter home cost, $1.5 million lump sum?

    I’d be lucky to dream about having the funds to get a mortgage 1 home 15 years from now. All I want is a place I can live in and call my own for 40-odd years until I kick the bucket, then my future nephews and nieces can have a catfight over how to carve it up for coin assuming global warming hasn’t decisively fucked everyone over by then.

    Of course I wouldn’t be able to comprehend the mindset of affluenza-huffers who can’t live without cutting out the biggest slice of pie even if it means breaking the oven and starving out everyone else.




  • The distinction between anti-Semitism and anti-Israeli nationalism needs to be clarified more often.

    I respect Jewish people’s right to peacefully practice their religion. (Though I disagree with all organized religions for their seemingly intrinsic capacity for inflicting harm by providing a haven for opportunistic demagogues and predators). I do not respect the Israeli military and police blowing up and beating Palestinian children to death, or ordinary people who say that violence is neceasary because they want more land.

    There’s plenty of crazy people who think the other way, calling the religion unacceptable but embracing the nationalists who make human piñatas.


  • Bonus points for games that let you make cinematic moments yourself.

    Monster Hunter World (A Greatsword True Charged Slash into a head break or tail sever feels ridiculously good to land)

    Rogue-lites (I’ve mostly ran Hades, but I’ve seen a lot of great things about Dead Cells and Risk of Rain 2)

    Dragalia Lost (May it rest in sweet sassy molassy, and may Silent Hope bring some of that ARPG goodness back)



  • I used Reddit is Fun for about 7 years, I can’t imagine going back to the official app with its clunky format even on the most compact setting and its hundreds of trackers mining user data for who knows what. The browser version still a useful enough tool for news, but that only lasts as long as users keep posting. Once they migrate here or somewhere else, that’s the end for Spez’s moneymaking scheme. I heard the RIF developer’s working on an app for Tilde, but Connect for Lemmy has been a pretty good alternative so far.
