Comfort Eating.

I don’t drink. I don’t smoke. I tried weed and found it uninteresting and never did anything harder. I exercise regularly.

But I’ll still never be the platonic ideal of a “healthy person”, because whenever I’m sad, I need processed sugar to feel like a person again. And brother, does life give me reasons to be sad.

Fuck me.

I don’t like Lula

But if he dies or retires, the Brazilian left has nothing to offer in his place, and it’s pretty much guaranteed Bolsonaro will be president again.

Evopsych type dudes.

They made up a whole pseudoscience to “explain” their inability to form meaningful bonds with other humans. And in the process broadcast to everyone they are on the spectrum but refuse to accept it.

Like my dude, I too have trouble intuiting the rules of proper social interaction and wonder where the manual everyone but me got is. But it’s not because of some made up bullshit about the pleistocene. It’s because I’m autistic, and it’s high time you got your ass checked.

Actual gods, or do self-proclaimed gods that are actually something else count?

Cuz if the latter, Final Fantasy 1 (same year, few months earlier) might be Patient Zero for killing “gods” in jRPGs.

Brazil has Lampião and Padre Ciço. … Though Ciço is less ‘criminal’ and more ‘heretic’. He’s considered a saint by many nevertheless.

I enjoyed 7/9 of them (Rise of Skywalker and Phantom Menace commit the only sin that I think is unforgivable in a movie: They are uninteresting)

But that’s the thing right.

They’re

Enjoyable films

… And that’s it. If one of them sucks, it doesn’t change much in the world at large. And even if you’re the type of person for whom a bad entry ruins a series, it’s not like it’s such a massive loss in the case of Star Wars?

LISA the painful.

99% of the salt involved with Star Wars comes from taking it way too seriously and treating it as way more important than it actually is.

Nah the right has one or three pet billionaires they outright worship.

Darn, you beat me to it.

Do you miss primordial chaos yet?

I’m addicted to the internet

The phone is just one of many ways to get to it.

It’s like saying a drunkard is addicted to “the bottle”. They aren’t. They are addicted to alcohol.

As a technology it’s nothing special, a solution looking for a problem.

As a speculative bubble and tech industry gold rush it was outright destructive.

Of course, unless it makes a comeback somehow, the days of blockchain as a tech industry gold rush seem to be over. Now the samesuch grifters are pushing AI (ANOTHER solution looking for a problem) where it don’t belong instead.

When it’s not under threat of being crushed by an angry moon, Clock Town is a very nice place.

Lindblum from Final Fantasy 9 (roman numerals are for goobers)

I adore the concept of a Castle Town where the castle is so big it sorta consumes the entire town. And the whole steam-punk techno-fantasy vibe of the city is extremely pretty.
