Hell yeah man. Keep it up!

As a longtime reanimator/dredge fan - please turn the discard pile into a second hand?

Watching some @tns.gg COTW coverage and god damn I want to actually learn to play this fucking game.

It actively punishes many of my SF6 habits so I sort of bounced off it the last time I tried to get into it.

Currently watching a band cover a Deftones song that is definitely older than they are. Kind of a weird vibe!

This is a hell of a sentence to be the first one I read on bsky today.

Alex in SF6 is for some reason really reminding me of Clark in KOF.

Oh, I didn't mean for that to come off like I disagreed with your tier list. It's just funny that I personally struggle more vs characters that don't thrive at high level (because I am not a high level player). Hard stuck Diamond 4 for life!

Ironically I feel like I get bodied consistently when I hit matchups in your bottom rank as Terry. Maybe failing knowledge checks or getting gimmicked?

Word to the wise: avoid finding yourself in a situation where you need 4 teeth cleanings/year. Even the most expensive option for my employer's health plan doesn't come close to covering the cost of having mild periodontal disease.

I can't imagine what it would be like to give even a little bit of a shit and work in a security or compliance role at one of these idiot companies who routinely do idiot things. Being completely ignored all the time I guess?

Getting ready to cancel a lot of subscription services out of spite. I'm going back to mp3 files, RSS feeds, and physical media. Sick and fucking tired of renting culture.

Respect the effort, and I appreciate artists with or without massive audiences actually trying to address the moment. I'll resist the urge to put my music critic hat on and talk about the song itself because that'd be kind of wack.

Succumbed to the temptation myself. You are 100% correct though.

Is it still just a slippery slope when even without this evidence we could have easily guessed their intent? We need a term that combines slippery slope and trojan horse.

Oh look, a predictable and obvious scheme was in fact obviously predicted.

Procrastinate from work by shovelling snow or procrastinate from shovelling snow by doing work?

I can all but guarantee you that there's not one single thing on Discord that's worth handing over your ID or biometrics to maintain access to.

Console launch didn't go as well as it should've. Also, hidden behind the simple (ie no motion inputs) control scheme is a Hard as Fuck tag fighter, and those don't tend to draw new fans to the fighting game genre. Game is super fun, but I'm not surprised it didn't meet riot's expectations

I haven't been in the Black Dog on Whyte in...22 years? 23? Anyway it is pretty much exactly as I remember it and that makes me very happy.

Some advice: if you live in a winter city and find yourself away from home during the winter, hire a snow removal company so you don't have to spend an entire day digging out from under ~3 feet of partially melted snow when you get home.

Very recently experienced this with my mom. It's horrible to witness. I'm truly sorry.

Need to see a hell of a lot more of this from the ANDP. Call the thing what it is. Make this THE issue. A separatist referendum in Alberta must be met with a resounding, categorical, unambiguous defeat.

Definitely pulling some weird looks from other motorists as I shred my vocal cords trying to sing along to PEARS songs today.
