YuzuDrink

Job recommendation: Her talents are renowned far and wide! When it comes to unexpected tasks even late into the evening, she excels without ever really trying. With the minimal application of her talents, I've seen grown men give out a shriek. I think she would be a valuable addition to any company.

You can tell how intense of a Prusa upgrade you’re in for based on how big the bag of gummy bears is. 🫣

I should not have tried to save that stink bug’s life. It thought I was trying to eat it, and now my hand is disgustingly. 😓

I think about this image every single day and how I'm also every person and object in it

@musicbrainz.org Got some edits for you -- looks like a couple track associations got swapped on accident. Sorry I messed it up and had to remove the wrong association in a second pass: musicbrainz.org/user/yuzu_dr... Happy to provide evidence from my own discs or whatever you need.

Pretty sure this is where my career is going in not too many more years. I have both cynical takes and optimistic takes. Both sets are largely memes, ngl. #millennial #lifeismemes #software #ai #llm

It’s easy for me not to buy a digital game on principle when I haven’t jived with the series in two decades. But it makes me sad that enough people don’t share my opinion here to convey that this isn’t okay. Staring down games I DO want that only have key-card releases… I’m part of the problem.

I’ve gotten 3 or 4 spam emails about my new Chrome extension… so I guess that means it passed review and is available now? 😅 No email from Google either way, but I’m sure the spammers can’t watch for in-review extensions, right?

Everyone always says “flash cards is a great way to learn things!” No one ever says “printing and separating 150 flash cards is gonna take you over an hour!” #flashcards #learning #sysiphus

What, me? Oh, nothing, just kitting out my fish shell to greet me with a pelican. #pelican #fish #shell ...I feel like these tags might be misleading somehow.

Who needs AI when your cat is perfectly willing to do your work for you?

Yoshi seems more okay with My Neighbor Totoro. Seen here demonstrating why I JUST HAD to buy a newer turntable with a cover. Nevermind that it’s also a nicer one. #vinyl #cats #totoro #music

Yoshi isn’t sure how he feels about Pink Floyd, but it’s important for him to exposed to the greats. #vinyl #music #cat #raisingthenextgeneration

Trying to balance out being too modern by listening to Styx; but they come along with a LASER ETCHED vinyl. Art microscopically engraved on the surface. What magic is this?! #vinyl #music #technology #lasers

I feel like any company with a good internal engine could probably license it with similar terms and just eat Epic’s lunch right now. Zenimax? Activision? Anyone? #unrealengine #gamedev

I finally discovered some of those toxic caterpillars I’ve heard so much about here in Japan. I just got a small grazing, but definitely not recommended in general.

it finally happened after almost two years, someone finally got us mixed up with dre's record label and sent us a demo

This is the future we need right now.

Finally watched John Carpenter’s “Escape from New York”. God I miss movies that were just simple and weird and a bit silly.

I have been playing this game in much the same way that I watch films like The Super Mario Bros. Movie from the 90s—not because it’s super good, but because around every corner is something hilariously janky, yet familiar. It’s such a laugh, and I’ve been thoroughly enjoying the horse hijinx.

Y'know, I'd been considering grabbing this game right up until someone compared it to Outer Wilds. I really did not get on with the repetitive parts of that game. Bored me too much, made me too motion sick, and at some point I just gave up trying to be interested in it. So I dunno, maybe I'll pass.

I’m sure there are folks who enjoy a bit of a joke; but for me on April 1, 2025, I feel like a whole day dedicated to making up lies for ANY reason is a bit of a bad vibe.

Perhaps the Gamers are alright

I'm really feeling that John Greene vibe, "It has been January for months in both directions." Also, the "this has been one hell of a week / Dude, it's Tuesday" thing. 😩

@musicbrainz.org Made my second-ever full-album upload. Surprised this one wasn't already there. Would love to have a double-check, though 😅 musicbrainz.org/release/769a...

When United Fruit Company workers were bulldozing the Costa Rican jungle, they began finding these enigmatic spherical stones ("petrospheres") made of 'gabbro', a basaltic stone. Thinking they might contain treasure, workers tried drilling or blowing them up. Let's talk about the 'Diquís Spheres'.

during the same night, three big twitch streamers were attacked by a stalker while, in a totally separate instance, another was robbed at gunpoint. now streamers are reckoning with the very real impacts of sexism, as well as a need for increased security aftermath.site/valkyrae-cin...

I remember when The Onion used to just be parody; but now it feels like either prophesy or simply saying the unspoken part.

I need to follow this game, because it sounds like something I would really get a kick out of!

This is, I guess, as good a time as any to let friends here know I was laid off this week and that I'm looking for work. I have 15+ combined years in games marketing, narrative, writing, & bizdev. So, hey, if you know anybody hiring, my DMs are open.

It's nice to see that at least sometimes the people who play shitty games end up getting shitty prizes. Not happening as much as I'd like to see these days, sadly.
