can i just say how nice it is to have a post popping off that has a negligible chance of getting me yelled at i can rest comfortably knowing absolutely nobody's gonna roll up to furiously white-knight for Mad Doctor Sheetshits anyway who wants to talk about dragon quest
TV's Adam, getting some buzzards involved,
@tvsadam.bsky.social
Video games, covid, and neurosis, not necessarily in that order. Providing 100 words when 10 would suffice since the mid-1980s. He/him would like to talk about dragon quest pfal.us (podcast i used to make) youtube.com/@tvsmusic6398 (music i used to play)
i need you to know about my poop joke; the deeply bizarre man it's about needs you to know about his poop (i was going to say "we are not the same" but when you get right down to it we actually pretty much are)
in fact i've had three bowel movements since we started this interview and you have been none the wiser now check your shirt pocket yes, that's right note the pointed ends
this has...not been my experience of social media at least not *this* social media frankly anyone who isn't struggling had better keep it to themselves nobody likes a braggart
On social media, a broad consensus is that you can’t admit to struggle — at least not while you’re struggling. Doing so represents a failure so profound it’s almost existential. How did it become mandatory to demonstrate perpetual growth and progress online?
I reject the premise that MAHA activists have “concerns” and not “a profitable business venture built upon the spread of disinformation and science denialism”
There is pervasive corruption across our healthcare and agricultural systems that defy party lines. I meet with MAHA activists because a lot of their concerns are bipartisan issues that major corporations paint as partisan. The fight isn't left and right, it's top and bottom.
tomorrow they'll announce billions of taxpayer dollars will be spent on studies exploring the health benefits of drinking the mixture of condiments and beverage remnants you and your dumbass friends mixed into one glass at the end of the meal

i've heard this song before "It Only Kills Sick People (Cyclospora Remix ft. DJ Diarrhea Lettuce)"
Breaking News: Two deaths in Michigan have been linked to cyclospora. Both people who had the parasite also had underlying health issues.
Appropriate air quotes because the most infuriating part about Americans debating "lockdown" is that it simply never happened. Having to pick up your Applebees and eat it on the sectional does not count. There wasn't even a brief moment where "everything" was closed. That's not real.
if you hated covid "lockdowns" try long covid
i got it in my head to replay the 7th saga, an SNES rpg i have a lot of fondness for that i also cannot in good conscience recommend to anyone *killer* soundtrack though
were i a huge piece of shit - a massive turd ambling about on corn-studded turd legs - who thinks atrocity has to clear a body count threshold before it merits attention, i'd wonder why those bombed schools matter so much given the relatively small percentage of the overall population they contained
actually he got dragged by *leftists* & it wouldn't have been a thing except he jumped into a trans woman's mentions to say his trans friends gave him a pass to play it bc trans women aren't a monolith, so neener neener #themoreyouknow
the internet has altered my experience of this book in the years since I read it to my older child
“From horse armour through to Roblox, to be alive and playing video games over the last 20 years has been to suffer a succession of indignities as major publishers and platform holders conspire, continuously, to make everything worse.”

Nope nope nope. What we’re not going to do is pretend the abandonment of the vulnerable to Covid was a given fact or an inevitability. The US government could have continued to prioritize safety measures to protect the vulnerable until better treatments were found. You do You was a policy choice.
He's simply stating a fact
i saw someone (in defense of the game show guy who volunteered to be today's main character) suggest that marginalized people should be nicer to their allies if they expect to keep their support it's not the first time i've seen this argument made, and it is, of course, absolute horseshit
you can’t be a friend to others if you can’t be a friend to yourself (also if this is from what I think it’s from then oh my god I loved these books *so much* as a kid they were at my school library and I had at least one checked out at all times)
after around five times in a row it tends to become a speedrun
We will be ready to have a real discussion about Covid when we accept the fact that “the vulnerable will fall by the wayside,” said by Fauci, under Biden, was eugenicist policy.
the near-complete erosion of the very concept of public health in this country has not only ensured that the next pandemic happens sooner, but that nothing will be done to protect us when it does
It's genuinely insane that it's a mainstream belief that the problem with COVID was that we did *too much* to address it.
i've never seen a more grown-up pancake in my life this pancake is worried about its utility bills
I'm CRYING Rose ordered a pancake meal from the kids menu at IHOP but she wanted it to be "more adult" so they made her a frowny face and gave it eye bags
i was driving jon out to visit his nana earlier and a song came on that i used to listen to while driving on that very same road almost 25 years ago, and i was hit with a complicated rush of emotions that would've caused me to lie down for a while were i not operating a vehicle with children inside
I mean call me crazy but I sort of suspect the parents might have something to do with it
“the best way for democrats to beat republicans is to run republicans” - republicans
The vibes may be exciting, but if Democrats are going to win this year and in 2028, they must reject the DSA. If you’re tempted by a democratic socialist this year, think of what use Republicans will make of these victories, and ask whether you want to do favors for fascists.
hope democrats sort this out by 2028 because you could put a gun to my head on election day and i'd write in the person holding the gun before pulling the lever for this lumbering mound of shit

i hope the comic value of this dumb thing that probably costs more than every house on my block combined collapsing into a heap before goons cover it in a burial shroud and drag it out back to get shot doesn't pull too much focus from how it could barely handle a 10-foot walk along a flat surface
Quick thinking having a tablecloth handy. I didn’t even notice the twitching from that dead robot.
