Costco sells rotisserie chicken at a loss. It’s an easy way to get cheap, relatively healthy, low effort protein.

Funny enough, I just finished playing through Paper Mario 64, and you’ve basically described Peach’s chapters. She’s able to pass on messages by way of using another character as a messenger.

The way the game is structured is there’s a mini Peach chapter in between each main chapter, but I think it would have been intriguing if you never actually got to see Mario’s side of the story and only heard about his adventures from the guards, diary entries, etc. Cool idea for a puzzle game!

So angry at Nestle and the time they killed all those African babies doesn’t even hit your highlight reel. I agree- we can do without Nestle.

I’m a fan of mindfulness and gratitude practice. Also, physical exercise! Nothing like working up a good sweat when I’m mad at myself to feel better after.

Cthulhu is a priest whose role is to summon the ancient ones. In this context he is the middleman.

If they were happy then the Kids would be Alright.

Hayao Miyazaki’s art style specifically has so much life injected into it, that you would have to be incredibly specific to even approach his style.

There’s an instance that stands out in Spirited Away, when Chihiro is putting on her shoes, she taps the toes of one foot against the ground to set it on correctly. A miniscule detail, but one that makes her feel more real. You’d need such an elaborate prompt to make that happen via AI, but thats the kind of detail that he includes in his movies. To him, the thought of having “someone” illustrate that who has never put their shoe on incorrectly and had to fix it is beyond inauthentic. That’s my take. Less about the worry of technology taking over, and more about the technology not understanding the language it’s being taught, because it can’t.

I understand that many people have an incorrect understanding of DEI (and at times have had experience with it being incorrectly applied). I was actually hoping to learn where this particular person learned their viewpoint to have a conversation.

Genuine curiosity here- where did you get your definition of DEI?

Flames! Flames on the side of my face!

But that’s why you do a single snow pea, with a repeater behind. Until you can save up for winter melons, then you replace 3/5 sunflowers with them in the back row and have two rows of repeaters. Then some tall nuts and spikeweed (my beloved).

One of the first things I did when I first moved out from my parents is eat a whole bag of Oreos for breakfast because I could.

It turns your poop black.

He’s a streamer whose chat makes fun of him for being fat. Caseoh.

Can I recommend chiakideck? Playing PS5 games in bed using the steam deck is awesome, if there are any games that you have on console that you don’t want to repurchase

I upvoted this comment without even reading it.

I get what you’re saying- there was a pattern of behaviour established before. But I’m cracking up at the idea of sitting down and interviewing a potential partner’s exes to see if the relationship is a good fit.
