Ordinary Abundance
A walk through a modern apartment, through the eyes of the people for whom everything in it was new.

no wonder this is such a popular tournament format
I had a cat that mostly said woof Not that he barked, it sounded more like a person saying the word woof. He was a little odd
Adam Serwer@adamserwer.bsky.social · 19h agoDo cats speak A. The language of where they are from B. The same language (cat) Or C. the cat language of where they are from (There are no wrong answers)
I want to improve my abilities so I can create expressive and worthwhile art that captures something true about the world vs. I'm tired.
the ai food thing, even more than most generative ai, breaks the social contract. you're not giving us a representation of what the food will look like.

I think this capture yesterday best for me. Peak coverage of the eclipse so many people just ignoring it, some because they just didn't know but most like this delivery guy because money won't let him breath.

Thought I’d miss the eclipse because of tree cover: tree based camera obscura!
The two new Wolfenstein games were so damn good, gameplay and story wise. I should play them again
Casey Explosion@caseyexplosion.bsky.social · 2d agoThere should be more sex in games! I wanna see more romances where the characters have sex as part of the story, like BJ Blazkowics and Anya in Wolfenstein The New Order finding a moment of human connection between the bloodshed, instead of sex being cordoned off for prudishness.
I didn't put the rick roll link in a work survey question that asked "anything else you'd like to share (mandatory)" please clap

I logged out of Big Walk early while my gang stayed on to play, and according to them, my dude immediately started spasming and ragdolling. But it was still interactable. So they picked me up and threw me in the ocean for a viking burial and sent me pics later. 10/10 game

Finally did some more work on Lunch Rush NES, I added a random function, and it uses input from hardware to make it (slightly!) less predictable. See the different pieces after the reset? That! (Ignore the mouse cursor, I can't be arsed to recapture it)
The discourse wheel has spun and landed on... Ooh that's rare, exactly on the line between sex in media and wholesome video games. I'm sure we'll have reasonable takes from the puritanical near-children with Internet access 🙄
My favourite thing is when you notice a typo during the animation of your post sliding off to the cloud, knowing you can't do anything because we don't have the technology to make an edit button
The next time you're feeling like a screwup who can't do life properly, remember: Every single person on earth knows what earwax tastes like. We all unfortunately, somehow, found that out, and immediately regretted it. The most put-together person you know has tasted the gross ear goo.
I genuinely think the only reason Nintendo released it was because there was one detail in it they cared about. I have an opinion about what that is, but I believe we'll never know for sure
The Price of Reason@priceofreason.bsky.social · 4d agoYuuuuuuup. Canon is bullshit and people are dumb for caring about it.
james and the giant peach is a wish-fulfillment film for sad children who wanted to be adopted by a bunch of weird queers

Never let anything or anyone convince you that you're too old for whimsy and fun.
