To post so infrequently, but then write out a nice long draft, go to post and the person's post gets deleted. Universes way of telling me to sit this one out :)

What is up with these bot accounts that have 0 followers and following and only one post linked to a fundraiser and constantly/instantly repost. I don't know what to do but block.

This seems to apply to all situations. When someone has to claim that they are the "greatest" at something, oftentimes they are average at best. True greats don't have to repeat it, and most skilled people are humble, realize there is always someone better and try to improve.

Apps for everything. I know why they do it, it allows tracking, but it also makes me not want to go there. Don't degrade your experience and force people to use your app. Stop the 'discounts' that are app only, those aren't discounts but bribes.

Taking a break from the world fire going on from our country for a bit. The new neogeo are+ looks really nice. The main thing I wish they had done, allowed a way to play MVS games. I wonder if we will see an uptick in mvs-aes adapters.

I expect this may put a slight reduction in value of originals, but that is probably a good thing. Games are meant to be enjoyed, not be a retirement plan.

Rep. Steven Horsford to Greer: "So the trade representative hasn't spoken to the POTUS about a global reordering of trade, but yet he announced it on a tweet? WTF! Who is in charge? It looks like your boss just pulled the rug out from under you. There is no strategy ... is this market manipulation?"

So tired of products promoting that their product uses "AI". Just tell us you are sending data to a third party without an opt out. No one needs an "AI" powered toothbrush or mirror. I miss dumb products.

I am not a fan of politics and wish I could be apolitical. The last four years have been blissful for the most part and I already dread the next term. The constant anxiety of what craziness will come next. I fear another world war will be upon us and the citizens of the world will pay the price.

This is alarming. A reminder that Craig R Brittain is a racist misogynist that ran a revenge porn site. He blackmailed women to pay to remove their images and videos. And of course racism and misogyny often go hand in hand. Imagine how awful you have to be to be banned by Elon.

You are up to date.
