If you need to hire a tradesperson, find small companies, folks who work for themselves. We’re WAY cheaper than the shops are and can usually a) make time for you and b) work with you on it all. Plus, we need the money more ;D

For real though, I just bought my first home a couple years back and I get it. There’s a lot I don’t know still. It’ll be alright, just keep an eye out for water damage. And if something starts sparking, cut the breaker off and call someone. Pretty much anything up to that point can be handled with YouTube and Harbor Freight.

I’ve got those and Quake 2 on PS5. Doom plays way better on controller imo but both feel weird

I desperately want Quake 3 Arena again

I can’t wait for MCC to come to PS5.

Dude I’m saying. She was honestly one of the most responsible choices for President I’ve ever seen, and I’m a goddamn anarchist. I hated voting for a cop on principle but I did it anyway because if your choices are a) an educated professional who’s diplomatically respected and seems qualified to lead the executive branch, and b) whatever this fucking is, yes I’ll take stability thank you.

I’m having to prep a detailed argument for my dad to disavow Trump because he’s just so goddamn terrible in so many ways, how can I keep respecting a man who supports him? But I’ll just get written off as victim to the woke mind virus like I’m being gaslit by every major news organization other than Fox. I’m serious, I’ve got like 50+ tabs open on my phone waiting to go into a document.

It’s so distressing

MAGA don’t know what the far left even is.

I’m just saying, DOGE servers have been on Shodan for like 2 months now. If someone were so inclined…

That’s just how he names his kids XD

The liver. It produces bile.

I know, he just also recently said that when he was asked if Zelensky is a dictator

They don’t care about cooperation, everything is a deal to them. If some other country has something, we don’t. The entire worldview of Republicans is just capitalism, if something can’t be framed in terms of profit it’s not worth pursuing.

They’re fucking Ferengis

Edit: as others have correctly pointed out, at least Ferengis have standards. This might be a disservice to them.

“Did I say that? I can’t believe I said that.”

An interview with MediaX president Nancy Poertner published in a 1999 issue of GameWeek described the game as an “interactive adventure game with role-playing elements” that combined “the detail of Riven” and “the real-time world of Quake.”

Ah, the 90s

Right, that’s the claim I saw from the Foundation over the weekend (yesterday?) - “selling data” is SUCH a nebulous legal concept that’s different in many jurisdictions that it’s borderline impossible to keep that language anymore.

…I’m not sure how completely I buy that, but I can see where they’re coming from. I hope that the Mozilla Foundation will clarify what data is being harvested and sold to whom, but I’ve studied enough history to know that transparency fading isn’t a good sign.

I don’t know people who date folks they’re not attracted to… that said, you can be homoromantic, heteroromantic, etc. Romantic and sexual attraction can be different.

My mom told me similar stories. She adored Ned Flanders’s store and used to remind us constantly how easy right-handers have it (semi-jokingly). I think that was my first encounter with the concept of privilege.

And the people who love you still think you look good ;)

Bikes were and still are a revolutionary technology. There’s a reason suffragettes were often associated with bicycles.

As someone who grew up almost exactly on that line of demarcation, it’s all part of the South and we should stop pretending otherwise.

When people say nothing bad happened I’m like “did everyone forget the huge amount of people who died needless deaths?”

I swear we live in different worlds
