Not to me but my mom went to get measured for a hearing aid last month. The doctor deadass asked her if it she thought it was still worth it at her age. She's seventy two. 😤 that's like ten years younger than you need to be to get elected US president

"Wij van WC Eend, ..."

My main take away from the State of Unreal is Tim Sweeney unironically warning against one single platform usurping all of gaming, in the same speech in which he announces a new platform to usurp all of gaming.

I love when in 007 First Light we hear Bond "randomly" speak Montenegrin to an enemy. Not only because we learn about Bond's knack for languages and quick wit - but mostly because it's the game promising us that this will be a ride, and that we shouldn't worry about it and just enjoy it 😁

The plot of your spy story doesn't have high enough stakes to be engaging? Thrill issue

Also to throw some more oil on the fire: these are petty much exclusively US-millennial songs. I know very few of these. As a Dutch millennial, I feel there's far to little Gabber content in this discussion.

@jon.inkle.co let's gooooo

“Friends” is a beloved American sitcom that aired from 1994 to 2004, following six young adults—Rachel, Ross, Monica, Chandler, Joey, and Phoebe—living in New York City. The show explores their friendships, romances, careers, and personal growth over ten seasons.

Making new slides for an upcoming class on features and iteration, and was inspired by @enikofox.com I hope it's not too reductionist, but based on prior experience this will come up in class 🤣

And a very many Christmas to you as well - I'll be spending the day with loved ones today (in the form of the No More Jockeys Christmas special) @alexhorne.bsky.social @watsoncomedian.bsky.social

I guess the one good thing about today's socio-political climate, in which all of the power and influence is being wielded by decreasingly competent examples of the worst among us, is that it gives @rianjohnson.bsky.social plenty of characters for more Knives Out sequels.

Hearing whispers that GTA6 might even be delayed until 2027 early makes me wonder: what civil engineering video is @anyaustin.bsky.social working on now that's got them scared?

Wiggles shoulders knowingly. Bonus fact; pretty much the entirety of the three hours I've listened to this song took place in a span of two weeks. It is annoyingly catchy though...

Happy World Linguistics Day from Groningen, the Netherlands!

These are the only kind of pictures I take with my phone these days - apart from the obligatory cat pictures, of course. Both kinds go to the same recipient (gf) for the same reason (autism)

Again - I would pay @cazwis.bsky.social good money just to get the cover. Let alone the other art. Let alone alone the great articles. If you're not on the #apwot train yet, get out there and fund the edition 6 Kickstarter

Bro FIA, how are you gonna beat the #britishbias allegations with a VSC call like that? How are us tinfoilhatters not gonna notice that it was 1) seemingly unnecessary, and 2) performed when PIA and VER were in positions to overtake. #f1 #mexicoGP

I've found nary a hardship - nearly forty years old - quite like taking a piss when my fingers are cold. #poetry #sliceoflife #writewhatyouknow

Ok I might survive without a new Uncharted, by the looks of this. #007firstlight

Props to Meta for having invented the perfect antidote to doom-scrolling: imposed ad-breaks. Every time I open insta, it stops loading new content after two posts in order to show me some ad. So I close it and go live life. My insta-time has gone down to nearly zero this week. 10/10 no notes

Me: "well technically my income is now above the median, so does that mean I'm middle class now?" Also me: "Hoy Maeri Po'bins, d'ya need yeh chimmeny sweeped?"

"I asked Chat GPT" yeah well I wish it need not have happened in my time, said Frodo. So do I, said Gandalf, and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.

Introverts vs extroverts at the end of a long day of social. Great day though 😆

Nooooooo I updated to the latest OneUI and now everything is different no pls not the night before a big event, I need my phone to behave like I'm used to 😭😭😭

Happy pride month, I guess?

I have to thank the @gamegrumps.bsky.social; when my gen z students were walking around, confusing older colleagues with the word Gyatt, I was able to explain that it's what you stick out to the rizzler. The disgusted look on the students' faces as they forbade me to speak is all thanks to you 🥰

He is resin.

I absolutely love the pirate yakuza game, for just straightup turning into an actual episode of the Bachelor for half an hour. No gameplay. Just a series of scenes with real actors, and a plot-inconsequential love story. 10/10 no notes, completely works for me, immersion intact 🥰

We love and appreciate @writnelson.bsky.social in this house, but this is a massively contentious take that I just can't bring myself to agree with. Creepy Redneck Dinosaur Mansion 2 was so incredibly mediocre that I can't even remember a single interesting story beat. Respectfully disagree 😖

More people should be playing Expelled! It is delightful. I don't know how many people are playing it, but it should be more. @inkle.co have cooked

Someone please tell the US government that this is not how the enemies-to-lovers trope works 😓

Dear Microsoft, I have considered changing my password. I have elected not to do it. There will not be a need for further pop-ups. Thank you.

Was getting slightly suspicious when the teacher of this <two-day course on effective change management in education development> started talking about the value of good storytelling. Then he drew a big ol circle with twelve steps and I just hope @annamegill.com still has the whiteboard somewhere
