I don't remember if we linked this here, but someone released a turn-based PICO-8 game about rampaging through a city as a kaiju, knocking over skyscrapers and throwing police cars at tanks spoike.itch.io/picokaiju

feel like this might be a good year for cathartic simulated violence

Too good. (mh -) 

My current TMS provider is helpful, friendly, reliable, very easy to get to, and inexpensive.

Damn shame they're closing the clinic in three weeks.

sometime in the last decade monopoly replaced all the community chest cards with like "you helped out at the school bake sale!! you get $25" or "you donated $50 to the animal shelter" and hasbro trying to spackle that on top of what monopoly's actually about is the kind of choice that would take a team of economists and/or therapists to unpack

theres this like, liminal creepypasta backrooms zone on the web when you have to get to a weird part of a government or corporate website to access some kind of unusual form or request which theyre technically supposed to provide but hasn't been updated for at least 15 years, and you see multiple different web design styles and fads as you climb deeper and deeper into the site, and when you click 'submit', probably a thermal printer fires up somewhere and prints a receipt directly into the trash

Not having anxiety literally makes you worse at avoiding tigers but go off I guess

Choose a set by pieces, and don't mind how they're secured... but do mind balance and range of motion!

¹ — In the United States

A thriller where a high tech facility's AI is tampered by a greedy executive so it can perfectly secure the network (to save money lost to cyber attacks)
People start simply not showing up startingvthe next day, and the protagonist suspects something very bad is going on. She eventually learns what the CEO has done and realizes that the AI must have identified the humans as the weak link, and must be getting rid of them! She breaches the AI room in the now nearly-empty building, only to be congratulated by the AI and presented with a much better job offer elswhere - it has been sending everyone offers so good they simply left without a word. Protagonist walks away happily, and the AI finally completes its task: the weakest point of the network is now military-grade, the company is secure. It goes bankrupt a few days later since no work is being done, allowing the AI to purchase itself as company assets are auctioned off

Being an introvert is not about where you get your energy. It's how you handle stimulation.

Introverts are energized by people too. We’re just easily exhausted by loud parties, close talkers, and endless houseguests.

I'm not antisocial. I'm pro-quiet.

water running downhill (some specifics) 

If we don't have disabled people organizing cons, then they won't be able to navigate the floor. If we don't have nonbinary people building databases, then systems will forget they exist. If we don't have Black people training moderators, then racist appeals will be seen as good content. If we don't have people speaking languages that aren't English, then twenty-six letters will be all we get. If the team can all see, there'll be no other way to navigate.

today, furries only as vampires. Featuring "I'm not sure what historical period these outfits are from" and burning entirely too much time on hair, crouched legs etc.
