if you're wondering how things are going I accidentally bookmarked a search for "killing eve" on tumblr twice and only just noticed.

I have finally rediscovered peanut butter after several nut-less years. For those not in the know, they take peanuts and crush them into a spreadable paste (no AI). A delicious treat when used as an ingredient, or eaten straight from the jar with a spoon in the dark at 4:30am

In my Wolf Hall era. I'm so cromwell-pilled. I'm gonna wear a gay little hat and tell people "It's Italian" if they ask.

These bitches out with the blue hearts. The lilac hearts. The flaming heart, the anatomically correct discord nitro heart. I'm out here reacting with stock red heart like an IDIOT. Washed. Unc. Millennial. Our actions bely desires, we exist only as the friction generated when culture erodes self ❤️❤️❤️

Please don't speak to me. I'm devastated. Just found out Kathryn Turner Director of Product Development at M&S Foods has a husband.

When you're being killed by the protagonist and she says some cold shit, like she throws back a line you used in Act 1 but hot and ironic, and all you can do is lie there and think "damn she really cooked me fair play" before she slimes you out

Being an Album girlie in a Singles world is tough. Adding half a dozen 2-minute tik tok sounds to my new music playlist. That's 12 minutes of my daily listening covered, nice!

electrologist said she found out 2 of her trans lesbian clients dated the same 3rd client when they both told identical stories about an ex who begged to be allowed to "overhead lift then throw them across the room". like "it was going so well until she asked if she could fire me off like a shotput"

@chrisremo.bsky.social Sorry to bother you out the blue - Idle Thumbs website and podcast feeds are down and have been for a day or so. Not sure if you're involved in keeping them up but thought you'd know who was probably

Nothing can bring me down right now. I got a "one in a krillion" answer on Krillion last week when I put "Bike Shed" for "Name an area of the school" and I've been riding that high ever since

I had a dream I was on Northernlion's stream and said "I'm like a slightly more trans NL" and when he asked what I meant I said "You know, like how Ryan is probably he/they nonbinary but has to drop his kid off at school then yell at chat for 5 hours so doesn't have time to deal with it"

I’ve just spent the last two months prepping a megagame. Its a live text discord RPG set on a space station full of factional intrigue and desperate people, incorporating all the lessons we've learned since the time we all did that last October. Enjoy! thegardenbelow.blot.im/apa-1/so-im-...

Developing a new productivity app where you have an important appointment in the morning but the other person cancels last minute, so now you're wide awake + ready to go BUT with a guilt-free fully open day ahead of you. Also the other person says you're reeaally smart and attractive

Folks have turned on extraction shooters and BR games so much that the WARDOGS trailer has text cards yelling at you that it is "Not a Battle Royale" and "Not an Extraction Shooter"

In the UK my account is old enough to buy the games itself and they still won't verify it

Steam is asking Australians to verify they're adults by linking a credit card, something millions of Australians don't have: aftermath.site/steam-is-askin...

Extremely frustrated by Zero Company now... Finally reached Act 2 and am running into a repeat performance issue where Cassian Andor fucks my wife! I select the option to tell him we're married but he just laughs + says "rebellions are built on hope" 😔 I have a really good PC so that's not the issue

Really enjoying Zero Company but I think I'm soft-locked on the mission with Anakin Skywalker. As soon as it starts I kill him to stop him becoming Darth Vader, then it says "Mission Failed" and forces a restart! I emailed support but got a cheerful AI reply saying the entire team got furloughed 😔

Every story has a final chapter. Every day could be your last. On a long enough timescale, everything ends. Chicken Zinger Tower Borger

And yet... we persevere anyway. Laughing in the face of death, even as he stands in the doorway, licking his fingers and dressed all in white. Ingredients ZINGER FILLET: Chicken (38%),

House of the Dragon S1 and AKOTSK are better than GOT/HOTD S2/3 because they're set in peacetime and all the characters can hang out together. Hunts, parties. As soon as war starts, characters become silo'd and the eps are the same small groups of people talking in rooms about military strategies

This is probably also why the writers contrive reasons for characters to unrealistically teleport around the map and meet each other, despite being at war. AKOTSK benefits from all the characters being in 1 place at 1 time. Maybe this applies to other settings too. Early seasons of LOST e.g

The Mermaid Mask is a fantastic followup to Tangle Tower. A 'simple' detective game oozing with style, love and tiny details. Funny, charming and authentically hand-crafted in a world where this is sadly less and less the case. A perfect weekend game! store.steampowered.com/app/1696770/...

The plan is simple: we'll launch a free daily word game that costs us AI tokens for you to play. How will we make back our money? That's the neat thing: we wont.

Sometimes when I'm at my lowest, I think... maybe my mind never really left that Library in Mt. Holly... maybe I'm still trapped there, scanning every page of A New Clue with a magnifying glass... desperately trying to convince my therapist that TONDA ROS is valid Erajan phrasing

Gonna start a cleaning service where a mean older woman tells you she's coming over in two days and if the house is messy she won't be happy

I've been buying glasses online for ten years now. Just input my prescription into a new website and a woman emailed me asking me to prove it. Are my eyes that fucked? Do I have a uniquely implausible stat-line? Just put the prescription glasses in the bag sis

When I was a kid my cousin told me he accidentally ate a metal ball from a magnetic construction set. He said it "fell into his open mouth at the exact same time as he swallowed". The next day I walked past his room + saw him hunched over, popping the metal balls in his mouth like Lindt truffles

The Incident at Galley House is a Steam remake of Type Help, an incredible puzzle game that's well worth playing. I wasn't sure if I'd play through but I'm glad I did; there's tons of improvements and extra bonuses for people who played the original. Buy it! store.steampowered.com/app/3641000/...

store.steampowered.comThe Incident at Galley House on SteamIn 1936, something terrible happened at Galley House. Decades later, with a strange contraption that reveals echoes of the past, you must uncover the truth behind this grisly mystery.

Me sipping my glass of implied drunk driving wine: "I'm getting strong notes of vehicular manslaughter... I think this would pair really well with being bonded together by a dark secret that haunts us forever"

"I would *love* to come, I *really* would, but I just remembered I need to uhhh.... un-beach 15 sperm whales. yeah they are beached to fuck it's wild"

A friend is on a flight to Madrid during the world cup final. Says the pilot came over the tannoy to excitedly announce that Spain had scored! Then had to sheepishly come back on and say there had been a mistake, no goal. Even the damn pilot got VAR'd...

My electrologist says I'm the best to ever do it. She said no other client is better at laying still and getting electricity shot at them. She said I'm so good at not moving and pretending it doesn't hurt to have electricity to shot at me, it's almost like I'm dead! Her words not mine.

she also (actually) said that all her transfemme patients complain about their exes who are also her patients so she just has to sit there nodding + pretending like you aren't complaining about her 4:30 appointment, like she isn't the secret eater for the entire local trans lesbian community

Finished Zero Parades. Really good. Disco Elysium is my #1 or 2 fav game so I went in skeptical and came out very impressed. Feels like a proper spiritual successor; a well executed thing made by people who learned a ton of lessons making Final Cut. I'm also a sucker for any spy themed stuff.

Things I liked: Playing as a woman (and a disaster lesbian burnout spy at that) is appealing, the 90s alt tech setting (very Stålenhag), cut down skills + stress system is a big improvement, coldish warish spy themes are yummy, lots of the moments + writing stands out (wish I took more screenshots)

Harry Kane always looks like a detective who just got told some new information that made him rethink this entire damned case
