Do we REALLY want zombie Reagan and hundreds of others like that running around again? I dunno about you guys, but I’m so tired of living through Interesting Times ™️ and Unprecedented Events ™️. A zombie apocalypse where they don’t eat our brains, but just fuck up the economy even more doesn’t sound fun.

We do not speak of that one. It was a dark time, a chaotic time. Do not utter that name so casually. Many know not of which we speak. May their souls never experience the curse of that knowledge.

I’m sure it’s fine.

Jokes on you.

I baked my casserole with the shiny side up and pulled it out at 59 minutes and 55 seconds, when it was supposed to go for an hour.

So take that Dull Side!

The meetings will continue until productivity goes up!

Right? And what would end up happening is losing the break, but still having to work til the same end time. Ugh.

Keep your damn smoothies! Give us back our mines!

“Give me a break” is probably what all the workers are saying.

Who the hell wants to work through lunch and not get a break? Who the hell thinks that’s more productive or better in any way?

No! We want to work more for less benefits!!! Let’s just skip nourishment and a brief rest, that won’t backfire at all. /s

I don’t think even possessing a physical CD or DVD counts as “owning” per our legal system. No? Even that is considered leasing the right to play the thing at will, but you still don’t own anything.

I saw that in theaters and it was one of the maybe two movies I’ve walked out of. It was so pointlessly depressing and just not enjoyable to us so we bailed.

Donnie is much better. Depressing? Yeah in a way, but also much more engaging and enjoyable.

Did you watch the theatrical or directors cut? The latter explains a LOT more.

TL;DW If I remember it all correctly. The plane crash caused a “Final Destination”-esque rift in spacetime? Or fate? Or reality? And Donnie should have died, but didn’t and because he didn’t the universe will implode unless he fixes it in time by dying. He also gains powers to see the future as part of the deal (represented by the weird trails in front of people walking) and he realizes the future is everything ending unless he dies to seal up the rift. Frank, the bunny is like a guide or messenger or something.

Crayons become the default.

Same. I played MC in early Alpha when you could play free in a web browser. And then I used a cracked game for another year or so. Once I had adult money I bought it. I’ve since bought it probably 6+ times over between Java, Bedrock, consoles, mobile and accounts for my kids.

I probably would never have bought it otherwise, or at least not for a long time.

I think most people would consider things like, working over 40 hours when you are salaried, routinely doing someone else’s job in addition to yours (like fixing their mistakes TOO much), skipping your lunch breaks to work.

Don’t get me wrong, doing those things SOMETIMES is ok. It’s when it becomes expected or ongoing that it’s a problem. Because no company is ever going to say “You are generating more profit for us at your own expense, slow down.”

If there’s so much helium inside the earth, then why doesn’t the earth float away?

I like this idea. It crowdsources the “fingerprint” of the ads themselves. So as more and more people get the same exact ad, and then tag it, it would be easier to skip that one. So it would reduce the same annoying ads from playing in, this Lemmy post is brought to you by BetterHelp talk to real live therapists about your podcast woes now, the middle of what you are focusing on. If it got big it would make advertisers change their format, but that would be good, less of the canned ads and maybe something more organic and less jarring.

I played Stars! too! I simply adored that game. Who knows how many thousands of hours I spent as a kid on it. It somehow engaged whatever flavor of ADHD/Tism I have and I could get lost for days on it. It’s funny, but even back then the graphics were absurdly simple, but we didn’t care, the gameplay and complexity was so enthralling. Most of the game was just basic geometric shapes and numbers on a map, which seems hilarious now, but to me it proves that gameplay > graphics. Graphics can help, but the gameplay MUST be there first and foremost.

You are a smart and kind person. You are strong and capable. You can accomplish difficult things!
