You start to live out of spite. If we don’t mean jack shit to the world and there is no grand plan or purpose for our existence, fuck it, find your own just to spite the nothingness.

In all honesty, I was there (sort of) a couple years ago, started reading philosophy and it kinda helped. Went from stoicism, to nihilism, and landed on absurdism.

But you could add some truck nuts behind every train car and some bull horns on the front.

So, Supreme Snyder is directing this billions years old epic.

Been years since I exercised regularly. Now that I’m older, I can’t get away with bad form without really feeling it later. Learnt mostly by myself and from youtube. A little while ago I was complimented on my form while squatting, and today I figured out what was wrong with my shoulder (nerve impingement from an unstable rotator cuff) and now I know what to do, day 1 and it already helped immensely.

Though I guess the real win here is that I’m going to the gym regularly. Tried many times before but I always ended up quitting. It was probably the depression doing me in. Guys, therapy works, no cap.

You underestimate my power

Or just at least mid coffee. I live in a coffee producing country, and I’ve tried everything from really expensive coffee to bottom of the barrel, both local and from abroad. The only cup of coffee I sipped and spat out was a Starbucks in Houston.

Stalker, from 1979 I think. Based on the book Roadside Picnic. Background is, aliens came to earth, did some weird shit, and left without cleaning up after themselves. Now some people dedicate themselves to the anomalous artifacts produced by these aliens.

Or a weirwood grove in a horrible timeline where the North became suburbanized.

Because the same people profiting from this system bankroll the media and politicians. And when those kinds of things are discussed in media, it flies over people’s heads because media literacy isn’t really common.

That was my guess. Shame, really. Most people I met were lovely, and the cities themselves seemed nice enough to walk around (London less so, too big and spread apart for that). Hope amounts to nothing, but I goddamn hope y’all kick them tories out sooner rather than later. Recent headlines from the UK kinda worry me.

Oh, I know. Meant the London tube. It was definitely cleaner than New York and Washington, Paris too. But, idk, I guess I expected it to be cleaner.

National Rail was amazing, otoh. Loved the countryside. Seats were a bit cramped.

Are the tube trains always so dirty? I visited last year and that was my impression. Not the dirtiest I’ve seen but, yeah.

Not meaning to criticise or anything, where I’m from we barely have functional buses, nevermind having a metro.

Yup, 1/5th of fascists know they’re fascists.

Same. I’m usually not for cutesy stuff, quite the contrary, most of the media that I consume is violent (games like doom, music like hardcore punk) and absolutely dress like it, but I fucking loved She-Ra.

I’m just a bit worried my 2070 will choke a little in the more demanding areas. I’ve seen it can get quite chaotic and that’s when it gets worse.

Hunt Showdown with my mates, really loving this event. Had been burned out of the game for a long time but it feels sorta new now.

Crusader Kings 3, loving Tours and Tournaments. Hadn’t played much ck3 till now, I miss some features from CK2 but, I’m sure it’ll get there eventually. Not like CK2 was perfect out of the box.

Project Zomboid: doing a TLoU inspired run with a bunch of mods on apocalypse settings. It’s pretty hard, but very fun.

Rimworld: always there when I need it. Currently running a mafioso vampires run, pretty fun, but I think I’m ready to move on.

Yeah, I can only remember what I read about how the attitudes of the men on the frontlines of the first world war changed after the leaders obligated a dehumanized view of each other following the first christmas truce. This very well could have the opposite effect.

Yeah, I’m aware of the latter. Wish studios would stop using advancements in tech to cover up deficiencies in optimization.

Ah, shame. Think I’ll wait on performance patches. I got no problems running it but I’d rather not buy something not up to basic specs.

Been eyeing this with my mates but haven’t copped due to price. Are performance issues as bad as recent releases?
