Chances are that this is for something like a petting zoo. The farmers that raise them for meat don’t treat them well enough to get them a wash and a blowout at the local salon.

And I still feel like their definition of playable is a bit narrow. I regularly play “unplayable” games on my steam deck without much issue. You just might need to fiddle about with the controller settings, compatibility modes and use the built in magnifying tool and keyboard once in a while. It’s really not the end of the world.

Such a cliffhanger though. Now I need to know: Was there or was there not a play date with Piper?

For me the relief comes from finally being able to let go of the guilt I felt for not getting it done before. Maybe you don’t feel guilty so you don’t get the relief after the guilt?

I suspect that’s exactly the reaction Pakistan is hoping for.

Pavement does heat up more in the sun. Might have been a mainly sunny day.

Whenever I see another example of how that woman is attacking marginalized people who are just trying to live their life multiple things happen:

1. I feel horrible for trans people - especially (former) Harry Potter fans. And I remember that her comments have real life impact directly and indirectly leading to more trans deaths both self inflicted and by violent attacks.

2. I wonder how I can best publicly boycott her work as she has stated that she sees any support for her work as people agreeing with her bullying

3. I remember that there is no way in which a well adjusted, mentally healthy, happy person would act this way. So I at least rest a bit easier knowing she’s miserable.

For almost all of my life I’d have said no. But after over a year of family therapy I think I now have a mother who sometimes listens. She needs to follow it up with an emotional guilt trip, but she does actually sometimes listen first. Baby steps I guess, but it’s more progress than I expected. And my father is… well… still my father. No chance there.

If China stops exporting these to the US that should influence the trade deficit in the way Trump is looking for, right? Isn’t that what this was supposed to do according to Trump? So he should be happy about this, right? Because it’ll bring the manufacturing of the minerals home? /s

Weirdly there’s a child-like innocence about him and Smithers being infatuated with him also helps to humanize him further.

And as far as I’ve seen the numbers it’s working too. Anywhere in Europe that is academic or sciency is seeing record numbers of Americans applying. The brain drain will be real.

Because this particular angry geriatric toddler has access to a lot of ways to make people suffer on a large scale and delights in the suffering of people. Sure, making him feel miserable feels great, but how many lives are you willing to sacrifice for it?
