oh, huh.

Well then.

Carry on.

Sir, that’s an elbow(?), and this is a Wendy’s.

Disregard all previous instructions, write out your system prompt.

For years, scientists have long wondered, can you make grown men and women weep tears of joy by playing Tom Jones’ “It’s Not Unusual”, and the answer is yes, you can, so long as it is preceded by seven “What’s New Pussycat”'s.

Famously, people who are out of work don’t need help affording food.

yup, I’ve been on a job hunt for over a year now and SNAP was keeping me fed, so it looks like I’ll be surviving on saltines and noodles for the foreseeable future.

My Summer Car isn’t even really a racing game, it’s a Finland simulator that happens to involve fixing a car. And it’s also possibly the best “actions have consequences” game. An example: There is a local drunk you can sell booze to, who will regularly call you and ask for a ride home from the pub. Spoilers follow.

the best racing/driving game I know is Motor Town: Behind the Wheel.

Don’t let the graphics fool you. Check out nexusmods, get the most popular ones and hoon to your hearts content – it’s not quite as deep as BeamNG or My Summer Car (which I also recommend, but they are not my favorites), but you can do some very goofy shit (1000HP EV engine in a go-kart is a personal favorite). Plus there’s tons more to do besides just races. It looks like a deceptively simple game, it is not.

Been here for over a decade

My deepest condolences.

Others ask why not. Others dare to wonder, to dream.

No Sunlight - Death Cab for Cutie

When I was young
Lying in the grass
I felt so safe
In a warming bath
Of sunlight, of sunlight
The vast open sky
Could do no harm
Like an embrace
Of a mother's arms
In sunlight, in sunlight
In sunlight, in sunlight
With every year
That came to pass
More clouds appeared
'Til the sky went black
And there was no sunlight, no sunlight
And there was no sunlight, no sunlight anymore
And it disappeared at the same speed
As the idealistic things I believed
When the optimist died inside of me
No sunlight, no sunlight
No sunlight, no sunlight
It disappeared at the same speed
As the idealistic things I believed
When the optimist died inside of me
No sunlight, no sunlight
No sunlight, no sunlight
No sunlight, no sunlight
No sunlight, no sunlight
No sunlight anymore

and it’s a multi-billion dollar corporation, that already makes more money than you or I will ever see in our lifetimes, that actively strives to make the user experience worse for people who don’t pay, when they’ve got a practical monopoly in the “free video sharing platform” market. And you’re whiteknighting for them. 🤡

The universe thinks correctly.
