Gavin Newsom is still a prick though I’m not apologizing for that

Trying to hit a balance on content is frustrating to me because I don’t want to be vulgar for the sake of it but I also don’t want to be made to tone the adult themes down because the show’s not vulgar enough to appeal to adults. It just seems like there isn’t a market anymore for The Simpsons-level adult content that’s adult on a more conceptual level instead of just relying on vulgarity to appear adult, and that frustrates me.

The teenagers working for me seemed to be under the impression they could just show up to work on their own schedule because I couldn’t possibly fire ALL of them, so today I fired all of them and now they’re super confused about it.

@scribus tears of the kingdom not being multiplayer is a wasted opportunity in general tbh, the amount of insane papaya you’d be able to do with the Rust building mechanics… you don’t even need to justify a second Link, the game does it for you with the Naruto shadow clones that everyone seems to be able to use now.

@zeldatra Man, I have got to overcome my Fallout New Vegas addiction so I can get addicted to Tears of the Kingdom already

I keep running into this problem where the things I write are usually totally cool on the internet where nobody can really stop me from describing mangoio in the crudest terms possible, but right now I’m writing for what is possibly going to be on television and those same words would probably get me a very nasty letter from standards and practices. It’s very hard to go from writing like you’re your own boss to writing in such a way that won’t lose the network twenty million dollars in Wendy’s advertising.

@zeldatra Do like other great shows did: invent new dirty words! Battlestar Galactica used *frak* all the time. It's not about the word, it's all about the inflection. I believe the most innocent word can be turned into a swear word when it's used as a swear word long enough. Using adjacent words can be also a nice opportunity to widen the vocabulary.
-
@adiwan Oh yeah, for real. My great-grandma would never, ever cuss... but she made "fool" sound like the *real* F-word if she got riled up.

I am Irish so it’s perfectly okay for me to say racist things about the Irish (but I’m also trying to get an Irish studio to co-finance something for me so maybe I shouldn’t)

OK.... Tears of the Kingdom... What does "tears" refer to? Is it the liquid coming out of the eyes (for example while crying) or is it the edge of two pieces of a material/object that has been ripped apart (for example tearing a piece of paper in two pieces)?
about a year ago from web-
@thelastgherkin Aaah... So it is not derived from the German word "Tier" (plural "Tiere"), which means "animal".

@scribus Good lord I wish, the previous game indirectly mentioned the events of Twilight Princess exactly one time and that seems to be the only acknowledgment Nintendo is willing to give that game.

next time something like NFTs drops that could make me a ton of money but is ethically unsound, could somebody please let me know before you tell everyone else so that I can get in early and when the whole thing explodes I can be like “damn they hired death squads in WHICH developing nation? Oh man I didn’t know my bad dude” and run off with the money while publicly taking a stand against whatever terrible thing I’ve been complicit in

@scribus no vandalism at my store yet but it’s coming I think, a group of Trumpers came in last week and stole literally every newspaper reporting on his arrest so they could trash it before anyone could read it so I’m expecting those same guys to try some apple with the Bud Light too
-
@scribus The masterminds at Budweiser came up with the perfect evil plan: if you don't buy it you're a somethingphobe, if you buy it you have to drink Bud Light. With this masterful move, they can cause suffering to all peoples of the nation.

@scribus 15 Chapter. The length of a chapter is rather uneven. The later chapters in a yakuza game are longer when trying to get most of the sidestories. I expect it to take 15 hours to finish.

@scribus I spent a little longer than I should have wondering what exactly is on MTV these days, both Beavis & Butt-Head and the Daria spin-off are on Paramount+, South Park only airs premieres on MTV, and the “M” in “MTV” hasn’t stood for music in a very long time

@zeldatra Not the jackass who thinks it's top kek to make a bunch of noise in a college library, I hope. I wanted to pin him in a corner and give him 10,000 punches!

@scribus Tanner Cook, apparently the subject of the prank whipped out a gun and shot him in the stomach, then the sheriff came and arrested them both. Since he didn’t die, I think I’m perfectly fine to say that I hope this incident causes these dudes to think twice about it from now on

@zeldatra Except that this is the first I'm hearing his name, sure hope nobody else tries to stage a shooting prank to boost their career of evil

Rand Paul is complaining about "woke" schools that are now disallowing kids from wearing shirts with firearms on them. Maybe this is just because I was part of the first generation to attend school after Columbine, but it seems to me if Republicans think that this is suddenly a thing that is happening right just now they need to get their eyes checked, because I remember growing up in Florida and being told any gun-related clothing would get my ass expelled.

@zeldatra NES games are region locked. You need your console modded to play PAL games on NTSC consoles or vice-versa.
