Yeah like I can’t say it’s not a conspiracy theory (that I agree with) but marking it is still very… bold?

MomCorp was taken!

I love the jank message summaries

I got one the other day that summarized a message from my 75 year old mom as a conspiracy theory. I can’t imagine having the confidence to mark a clients message as a conspiracy theory even if it 100% was.

Here’s the summary:

Conspiracy theory about government agencies being privatized for profit.

Original text:

They would turned it into a private owned so they can profit from it. That’s why they changing all the government agencies and turn it into profitable businesses for them. See how all the big corporations are lined up with trump.

I read what you said as hyperbolic, but generally dismissive of the idea that characters in media have sex appeal and/or vicarious romance appeal,

Of course I was being hyperbolic…

often generally, and often to such an extent that it drives people to make and share their own erotic spin offs.

…but jfc you’re adding layers to this that no one else even mentioned and then building off of those layers to have your own weird anime rants

No shit sex sells - that was never the contention

The point of my original comment was poking fun of the vibes I got from the comment I replied to which felt like “there’s no need for sex or romance in media anymore when you can watch porn so easily”

Maybe I’m too cooked right now to give this reply the attention it deserves but this was a trip.

Like did my original comment give you the impression that I didn’t know people rule 34 every goddamn thing possible?

Maybe I’m really old but you suggesting that anime is the reason we stuff sex into shit is just so funny to me. I once heard someone say “every generation is the first generation to think they invented sex.”

The comment I replied to was like why romance if porn exist which was also funny

Anyways if I misread your comment then my bad it’s been a day

Personally I try to get through the whole episode of family guy before I man handle my ham candle

lol are you equating romance in media to porn

Like do you watch the x files and whip out some porn every time the two mains chars have romantic tension

This feels like such a non issue because games and movies these days have basically zero sex appeal or romance

It was a pleasant surprise that you could romance people in BG3

Content blockers can still block ads even in app

I’m using AdGuard with voyager

Pepperoni rolls - West Virginia

Adobo or milkfish - Philippines

Dirty rice - southern states

Kinda confused how it’s RuneScape like at all?

I guess the inventory and gear pages give me rs vibes. Looks jank enough to be fun so I’ll give it a shot

Probably focus on finishing a project. I myself have a graveyard of unfinished shit but it’s not a great look if you’ve never finished something.

Starting a project is always the fun part but if you quit something the second you hit a wall you won’t be pushing yourself to actually learn. You also probably wouldn’t be much use to someone trying to maintain and develop their project.

I was a dev for ten+ years then pivoted to pm during Covid

Didn’t MKBHD launch some wallpaper app for $12 a month? I heard about it and just figured he was another tech YouTuber who lost touch

It’s wild how Linus hasn’t pivoted into acknowledging his videos are like junk food. They’re fun but you shouldn’t take them too seriously.

Instead he’s doubling down in all the worst ways while continuing to come off as another whiny tech ceo

I sincerely hope that OSRS players don’t rollover on this one but I’m not holding my breath.

Reading the CEO comments the other day really highlighted how tired I am of corporate speak and just how patronizing it is.

Like what kind of frustration? I feel like I don’t stew on things and it’s pretty rare to be mad about something the next day.

For better or worse I find it hard to care about things that are out of my control

Let’s not beat around the bush we’re both adults here. Using charged language is fun but you gotta own it when you do it.

Typical answer.

In what world is telling someone “typical answer” not a cunt response in a post about being civil

I’ll try to name some unusual ones I enjoy

Pokerogue - a Pokémon one that’s surprisingly well made but grindy

Rogue tower - tower defense

Peglin - pachinko roguelite

Backpack battles - a weird inventory game where you auto battle other peoples builds but it’s not really pvp so don’t worry if you’re not into that

I knew Netflix existed as a dvd service but back in like 2009 the first streaming ads I saw were on flash game sites so I thought they were scams.

You know those like sign up for blank free trial and you’ll get 5000 fun bucks in shellshock or whatever
