What a sweetheart! She looks like such a snuggly sausage, especially the bottom right. What was your favourite habit of hers?

If their venom glands are removed. Note: this is super cruel and has a high risk of failure

I asked my google home the same question and it told me that I told it that my dog is a good girl 3 times. I know it’s not great for privacy, but it made me chuckle.

Costco sells rotisserie chicken at a loss. It’s an easy way to get cheap, relatively healthy, low effort protein.

Funny enough, I just finished playing through Paper Mario 64, and you’ve basically described Peach’s chapters. She’s able to pass on messages by way of using another character as a messenger.

The way the game is structured is there’s a mini Peach chapter in between each main chapter, but I think it would have been intriguing if you never actually got to see Mario’s side of the story and only heard about his adventures from the guards, diary entries, etc. Cool idea for a puzzle game!

So there’s that, but also the position of “special counsel” or whatever dumb title he holds is time limited. You can’t be an unelected government official indefinitely (although I’m sure the current administration would change the rules if they cared enough to keep him). He’s making it sound like he’s bowing out, when it was the plan to step down in May from the beginning.

I don’t know if it’s the circles I’m around or what, but this is not my experience at all. As someone with a nonverbal autistic loved one who was bullied with this slur, I disagree with the idea that it doesn’t cause harm to continue to use it. If someone uses it I ask that they don’t use it around me and that’s been respected. Language evolves over time, and we need to evolve away from using what was relatively recently a medical diagnosis as an insult.

A little glass vial? A little glass vial!

Cthulhu is a priest whose role is to summon the ancient ones. In this context he is the middleman.

If they were happy then the Kids would be Alright.

Hayao Miyazaki’s art style specifically has so much life injected into it, that you would have to be incredibly specific to even approach his style.

There’s an instance that stands out in Spirited Away, when Chihiro is putting on her shoes, she taps the toes of one foot against the ground to set it on correctly. A miniscule detail, but one that makes her feel more real. You’d need such an elaborate prompt to make that happen via AI, but thats the kind of detail that he includes in his movies. To him, the thought of having “someone” illustrate that who has never put their shoe on incorrectly and had to fix it is beyond inauthentic. That’s my take. Less about the worry of technology taking over, and more about the technology not understanding the language it’s being taught, because it can’t.

If something takes more than 4 years it gets lumped into “never” territory because no political party wants the next party to get credit for their work.

Guarantee it took Germany more than 4 years to recover their reputation (and even then, not enough to do well in Eurovision).

But that’s why you do a single snow pea, with a repeater behind. Until you can save up for winter melons, then you replace 3/5 sunflowers with them in the back row and have two rows of repeaters. Then some tall nuts and spikeweed (my beloved).

Did you ever get Fallout London working??

He’s a streamer whose chat makes fun of him for being fat. Caseoh.

Xitter wasn’t around in the 90’s, was it?

But how would he get in the fridge?

Can I recommend chiakideck? Playing PS5 games in bed using the steam deck is awesome, if there are any games that you have on console that you don’t want to repurchase

That’s a very interesting take. Especially realist vs pessimist. However, I’ve definitely used ‘reality checks’ on people who were down on themselves. It represents an alternate perspective, that can be considered or rejected.
