"Earlier that day,
In the courtrooms of Terra.
A planet far from Earth;
Yet closer than was known to any."

WHAT IS WRONG AND WHO DID THIS TO YOU?

"Maid Cafes?
Those were much like restaurants in western culture.
However, your waitress actually stays at your table.
You converse with them, play games, get to know them..."

THIS IS AN EXACT LINE FROM THE ACTUAL GAME. HOLY BLAP.

"Only given the concrete details last week" for a life-altering tour? An NDA for a publicity tour? This isn't a tour; it's a self-kidnapping.

Could someone please pick a tense and stick with it? I don't care which one. Just pick one.

I'm going to watch @adeptomega​ play Major/Minor and critique the narrative as we go.

The Joke: welcome to Mastodon, here's your fursuit and your copy of Das Kapital

Reality: welcome to Mastodon, here's your six alt fursonas, a copy of the Anarchist's Cookbook, an eight-week course on the programming language of your choice, a tarot deck, some brand spanking new hormones, and a complex geometric sigil you should memorize that will turn into a neural counter-virus so that when the Singularity finally hits we can make sure The Straights don't claim it for themselves

The creamed corn I made with the heirloom purple corn kernels turned faintly green, causing the rosemary flavor to make the dish taste vaguely medicinal. The GF cornbread stuffing that came of it, however, was fine.

This, however, stole the show: turkey roulade stuffed with bacon, mushroom, and spinach.

Fungouse Mirror 

I've spent eighteen years in tech as some stripe of administrator or developer on deep systems making back-end code tell people when it's not healthy. I'm steeped in the metaphors of bad actors, poison pills, and best intentions. I see on a daily basis the negative impact of technologists failing to think through the consequences of their decisions because the market demands they move fast and break things.

More and more, I fear what this has done to my perspective.

Never make monuments to the living; they may yet defile the stone.

He's irritable, but I don't see him being rude."

I accepted his suggestion, but i called him an asshole in the comments.

TFW the suggestion the asshole made works, but only when it's done precisely the way he says do it, there's no clear reason beyond rote memorization of a pattern that this should be the way it works, and it's not worth it to you to memorize this shit because you have better things to do with your life than coopt more of your brain into the Technocratic paradigm.
