update: if I don’t have covid, then I have something that sure feels a lot like it, because this sucks major balls.

Just noticed there’s cat food in the department managers’ office and now I’m trying to figure out a) who in the store is feeding cats, and b) what cats are hanging out on the highway far from any of the nearby suburbs

one of the main characters in Swole Foods is a “Californian” (he lived there for six years and has made it his entire identity) but I’ve never lived in California, I only know what I see on the news, so some of these jokes might seem inaccurate to people who actually live there, which I think is pretty fair considering Hollywood directors seem to think Virginia is still a part of the confederacy.

@scribus Maybe! Wouldn’t feel right about it until I could pay you tho, so let’s see if I can get this thing picked up or funded first. Flying to Atlanta next year for the first of what is presumably going to be many, many pitches.
-
@zeldatra Good luck on the pitch(es)! As I understand they're super easy, barely an inconvenience. And I appreciate the monetary morals, but if you just need a punchline checked or something then I do the same for my writing group no problemo

i am happy

“Are you free to speak your mind in America?” reads the chyron on a wholly uncensored American cable news network where they criticize America absolutely all the time.

My city is infested with those rentable e-scooters. The scooters aren't the bad thing but their users just chuck them everywhere in everyone's way, like sidewalks. The worst thing I've seen was a scooter in the middle of a bus driveway.

So has anyone ported Doom to the Virtual Boy, and do they make a good VB emulator for a VR headset yet? !vgp
Sunday, 01-Aug-21 17:44:27 UTC from web-
@scribus There's actually a VB emulator for the Oculus Quest 2. It's called "Virtual Boy Go".

@ceruleanspark Hmm... I could sure go for a round of Teleroboxer again...

If me not wearing a mask increases the likelihood of someone who choose not to get vaccinated to get COVID, I see that as a good thing. I'm sorry for the immunocompromised who get caught in the crossfire.

I’m a little old to be waking up to news about Chris Chan, can’t we leave that in the past

@scribus It’s PROBABLY National Enquirer-tier just because of the sheer insanity, but also, that would imply a certain level of untruth to it, and, uhhhhhhh…

I need to decide on where all these new patches are going on my Levi's jacket, and also whether to get a NERV or SEELE one, and which (up to) 6 Pokemon I want and a place for all of that, and then what the hell I'm even supposed to do with a JACKET in the face of global warming and life in Southern California. Also eBay doesn't seem to even have a Ninetales patch so
Wednesday, 28-Jul-21 19:28:12 UTC from web-
@scribus I found one Ninetails patch on Etsy https://www.etsy.com/listing/977438366/
-
@scribus Well I found a seller who had spelled the NERV credo right, so I bought one. Eight on, two ready, three more coming in the mail.

i put "Jon Lovitz" in the cast list so here's the plot for the darker and edgier Krusty the Clown spinoff that I just made up right now: Krusty's show is taken off the air and in an attempt to revitalize his career, he hires a new publicist, who happens to be none other than Artie Ziff. Meanwhile, due to good behavior, Sideshow Bob is paroled, and Krusty reluctantly lets him live in his mansion because he has nowhere else to go.
Also, Milhouse's parents adopted him out, so he's there too.Tuesday, 27-Jul-21 05:38:17 UTC from web -
showing an exit wound with freshly exposed brain matter in the foreground is totally okay if it’s a cartoon, right? that’s not gonna scar an audience that would probably be watching Rick & Morty?

I'm always excited for a new Tuca & Bertie episode but the subject matter is always a downer (because of the theme of the subject). All those broken personalities and relationships.

I've just read a news article about Poland that they also have a problem with people not taking the vaccine. Especially the people in very rural places and in the mountains are stubborn. In the article they reported that those people said that they live so far away from other people and cannot be infected, they had strong immune systems, and that the vaccine was unsafe. The social pressure is so big in those small communities that the vaccine enemies made talking about the vaccine a taboo subject in order not to be alienated.

@scribus Polio has the "advantage" that it has horrific looking results like misshapen limbs on children. Covid has death or long-term respiratory deficiencies and they are not horrible enough. A friend of my father's has a car paint shop and cannot work there anymore because covid made it impossible for him to breathe there (already had issues breathing because he did not a lot care for mask protection while painting and he is a heavy smoker).

Incidentally, it's my official policy that whenever I need a name to enter into an offensive joke, it be a billionaire.

@ceruleanspark That's a pretty good policy, I might just adopt it myself

I'm not big into LEGO but somehow I want a Star Wars Clone Wars Gunship set.
Thursday, 15-Jul-21 19:19:37 UTC from web-
@adiwan I hope they've revised the design since I tried to build Gherkins old one. That build is an unfun nightmare and produces the flimsiest model.
-
@ceruleanspark From what I've seen is big and sturdy. But I can only say that as an opinion without much insight and experience with big LEGO builds. I want it but I am aware that these sets are luxuriously expensive. I rather buy new Winter tyres for that kind of money.
-
@adiwan Gherkins was one of the first-gen models from the AOTC era, so it's entirely possible they've made the design slightly less likely to just explode on contact with a stiff breeze.

@scribus Are you sure it's not Daft Punk emailing you because they're bored in their retirement?

now they're showing something i remember, but apparently these days this show is heavily edited to remove "offensive jokes" (jokes about gluten-free diets)
Wednesday, 14-Jul-21 05:02:26 UTC from web-
@scribus i dunno but personally i think making fun of gluten allergies is much, much lower on the list of things i'd object to than, say, paying a random generic black guy to pretend to be Barack Obama, which disney channel also loved doing at the time.

I've been looking into 3d modeling the "companion cube"-style wider crates from Star Wars. There are tons of small and subtle differences between series. http://rainbowdash.net/attachment/875956
Tuesday, 13-Jul-21 12:15:40 UTC from web-
@scribus Interesting. The dimensions of that crate is about the shape of two cubes stuck together. The shape doesn't lend that much for comics. I can imagine having 3 rows of comics in that box that are side-by-side that would approximately fill the crate's shape without major alterations. However I think that it might be too much. I think that producing these crates would be expensive as it needs a lot of manual labor. Also I have not the tools to make the crates efficiently and with quality that justifies the costs.
-
@scribus Yeah. I would need a big CNC router and/or a medium-size laser cutter to cut down in labor time and to provide decent and repeatable quality. It could be done without those but it would be not economical.

I should probably stop saying things like “I’m 23, it’s too late for a midlife crisis” before somebody has me sent to a psychiatric hospital

@zeldatra Man I got sent to the hospital just for screaming the F-word at the top of my lungs while I kicked the walls in the abandoned downstairs locker room

Insomnia SSSSUUUUCCCCKSSSS
Saturday, 10-Jul-21 08:54:41 UTC from web-
@scribus Little bit the heat but mostly my neighbours. In the last two weeks they have woken me up 10 times in the night (about 2-3 AM) thus I could not go to sleep again. My body is so f-ed up that I can only go to sleep between 10 and 11 PM.
-
on the other other hand, the house has a proper yard and is not attached to the neighbor's house, which is not only a foreign concept in Virginia, but means that I could reasonably just sit on my deck and toke it up without anyone bothering me about it

@zeldatra Which sounds, on paper, like the world the conservatives claim to want, and in practice they police the hell out of your garden

I live in a town where, for legal reasons relating to some billionaire literally buying the rights to independence day, we celebrate the fourth of July on the fifth of July. It's pretty weird.

@zeldatra That seems like one of those "America in a nutshell" moments that political cartoons are made of
