This is gonna sound like a pretty weird train of thought, but I cannot listen to that Pharrell Williams song “Happy” because I’m my brain has forever connected it to the time I had some bad pea salad from a local place, which completely ruined both of them for me. Every time I hear it, even in my own head, my stomach starts churning a little and I eventually start to feel like I wanna throw up. Thankfully that song has died and I hope to god nobody ever revives it.

I’d say 90% of career politicians, regardless of political leaning, would fall under this category, but that’s just my line of thought towards how much I trust those freeloaders.

Fair enough.

Now we wait for the death toll to skyrocket as every other company follow suite.

For now, a fix that works for me on that has been just restarting my phone. Probably a very temporary solution that yt is working on preventing from working, but at least it works.

This is why I use things like Newpipe on my phone or FreeTube on my desktop/laptop. Why deal with a massive headache when I can bypass the agitator?

No worries, they’ll eventually launch it and it’ll run at a piss-poor 1 decade per frame on even the highest end hardware for the gameplay, but the microtransaction storefront will run at 3000000000000000FPS with zero bugs whatsoever.

I love how they always try to pull the same bull that if the only way to obtain something like a ROM was through legal means that these companies would suddenly see a surge of millions more in revenue.

It’s just as absurd as the people who say that thoughts and prayers alone will eventually end all school shootings in America.

That’s me with just about any other brand of beer other than this specific brand from where I live.

This is definitely a time I will 100% gladly gatekeep anime. If gen “AI” is used I will 100% say anyone “working” on it isn’t part of that industry and is nothing but a pathetic loser not worthy of a job in any real anime company.

Similar sentiments to short form anime. Also towards people who watch either.

I’ll stick with what I’ll be calling real anime if that future becomes the new normal.

Old man screaming at the cloud in the sky and in the server.

If I got new speakers, better quality ones than the ones for my old RCA thing or the ones in my Bria radio CD player thing, or even my beats headphones, I’d have a hard time choosing an album. Would probably go with whatever I’m in love with at the moment. Currently that’s a 3 way tie between R.E.M.'s Out of Time, Alice in Chains Jar of Flies, and New Radicals Maybe You’ve Been Brainwashed. Would struggle to lick between those 3.

As for individual songs, I got a couple I’m currently absolutely in love with that I’d love to play on very high quality speakers:

Deafening - The Nixon Rodeo ( emotionally hard rock, at least I think so )

OR

Someday We’ll Know - New Radicals ( for some reason this just became my absolute favorite New Radicals song immediately after hearing it once on CD )

From what I’ve heard, it’s nothing but over glorified TTS that strips all form of actual emotion in the voice of whoever is speaking.

With the way my lifestyle is going, I sometimes get so much that I can’t help but need social time to break up my alone time. One of the biggest reasons I love the club I’m in at community college.

Did COVID make dumb people even dumber?

No, they were always that dumb. They probably just projected themselves onto Superman because he’s a strong white man and clearly strong white people cannot be illegal immigrants because that breaks their pathetic little power trip fantasy.

That is what I assume they did when they last had to put in a tube in my ear. At least for the numbing agent, even though I’m fairly certain they didn’t.

At this point, trading card collecting and grading. Oh, a new series of trading cards for pokemon or yu-gi-oh or whatever dropped? Time for all the adults to buy out every single card in the store and then run home in hopes that their scam leaders like PSA will encourage their behavior by gracing them with a card they claim is worth money despite only being out for less than a week.

Card grading ain’t nothing but a scam, cult, and great way to encourage the worst in people, while simultaneously gatekeeping trading cards from everyone with more than 2 braincells. Ain’t nothing gonna change my mind about it.

Wait, y’all had gaming skills to begin with?

I can barely play online games against anyone without getting wiped in 0.0001 nanoseconds if it’s a PVP game. Never had skills, so I’ll never be in denial about losing what I never had.

As someone who hates insects because they creep me out, this looks like the perfect place to rest out any new flamethrower designs that need to be tested.

I recently found out about that show, assuming we’re talking about the same Australian children’s supernatural comedy, and although some of the jokes don’t land on me as an adult, I am actually really enjoying it. A few episodes into season 1 and I could see kid me absolutely loving it.

Though, if we’re talking a different show, I’m SOL.

Although I definitely agree that the vast majority of parents definitely shouldn’t homeschool, I know of a single case where it went alright. Though they’re definitely outliers in the equation.
