On the bright side, I have become quite deft at stacking stuff!

That actually sounds pretty satisfying, ngl! Somewhere around creamy brownie/slightly frozen mousse!

Never had the chance to try :-<

Depending on texture, that may be either surprisingly yummy, or disturbingly disgusting.

That’s not a CPU, that’s a fucking space heater.

That meat looks more lively than I do.

Yes, completely agree, Raven have produced great stories framed by solid gameplay with neat twists every now and again. It does feel Of The Times™, that weapn upgrade system simply HAD to be there:)))

Raven really did right by the Strogg! Q4 finally made me appreciate the species and their lore (or hints of lore, rather). The characters are also unexpectededly fleshed out for what’s essentially still a shoot-em-up.

And that one scene was a brilliant subversion! Very well integrated into the narrative, too!

Several billions of us too late, m8…

DAMMIT! I had it! All throughout my twenties, I had it! But, nooo, I had to spend my twenties exploring my existential angst and severe depression!

“You’re the man now, dog” takes a completely different twist.

We can lick the paint!

We’re just ants on someone else’s Monopoly board…

Easier to just carry the groceries in my arms, the last accessory I’d need for people to fully think of me as a serial killer would be random lenths of rope…

I hate these… as a tall person, I have a choice between cosplaying as Quasimodo, or letting that thing wreck my boot heels…

Yyep!=))

Seriously, human existence is a collective learning experience, Stagnation started rubbing its hands with perverse delight the instant we forewent vulnerability and openness for excesive individualism.

Edit: I still don’t know how to adequately open up to someone else, after a decade of trying to figure it out. After being raised to be a soulless performance machine and being surrounded by people who cave in to the grindset, I don’t know what it means to be open and vulnerable with another person.

And it sucks so much long-term, I can feel it as though I’m being held back several grades, like I’m completely missing the point of my own lived experience and have no idea what to do with it, because I don’t have the framework of a big picture atop which to analyse things, and I think that framework would be having enough perspectives which aren’t my own in my life.

I’ve finally understood what Alan Watts said, that we can’t know ourselves unless we have other people around to help us see who we aren’t. It’s because we know too well who we are, but not knowing who we aren’t, that’s like trying to understand fire without knowing ice.

Guess I’ll just die, then!

That’s why I bought a watch;)

I got bot flashbacks from Tinder and OKC the instant I saw the attached photo:))
