@emanate This. I have this. It is awesome. 🐺 📖

City kid Jason Brisby was just about to get used to life in a small mountain town. He made new friends, joined the baseball team, and met a strangely interesting, teenage girl.

However, a series of horrific events will lead him into a hidden world, which will tie his fate to that of a strange teenage girl on a quest to find her sister.

@ajr "Sindome is a cyberpunk MOO (a text-based online virtual reality system to which multiple users are connected at the same time). Roleplaying in Sindome is unique in that most of its coding is custom, employing XML, File-IO, and a graphical web interface.

My grandma gave me a roll of 10 cent coins and I've been using them to buy snacks.

Today, I wanted to buy a bottle of iced tea ($1.50!?), but then I remembered I had an extra 5 cents from when I bought a candy bar (85c) and I wanted to get rid of it.

First, I tried inserting 25c then pressing the return button, but it didn't work. So, I inserted $1.75, bought my drink, and it gave me a 25c coin.

Tried to charge my laptop. Laptop didn't charge.

Thought charger was broken. Spent 5 minutes trying to fix it.

Charger was unplugged.

The Leaked Fyre Festival Pitch Deck Is Beyond Parody. But it’s also the latest chapter in the battle between consumers and advertisers in the digital age. http://www.vanityfair.com/news/2017/05/fyre-festival-pitch-deck

As a storyteller, I don't like "broken" worlds.

In "The Walking Dead", for example; all conflicts in that show are caused directly, or indirectly, by zombies. In "Attack on Titan", it's the giants.

What cheap drama, filled with barbaric characters and contrived plots with no sense of the mundane.

Big money, though...

I've noticed that I read a lot compared to the people around me.
