I know things about things. I love movies, video games and soup. Harlan Ellison was pretty sure I stole his wallet.

Wait until he hears how angry his base gets about things like free narcan, to help with that “hosp-lee” thing. They don’t think their tax dollars should be helping “those people”.

When I rang myself up, the manager called from behind the food counter, “you okay buddy, or do you need help?” I was like nope I’m good! So when I saw the old guy waiting to get rung up, I asked if he needed tobacco or was paying cash, and he said no to both, so I was like, oh I can help you here!

This Wawa seems to have had a no-show this morning so while I’m waiting for them to make my sandwich, I just rang someone up at the self checkout kiosk, because they were just waiting at the register while all hands are on deck making food.

I will never stop a dog I’m walking from peeing on one of those little American flags republicans put up on the edge of their property because as Thomas Jefferson famously said, “the tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the piss of good boys”

I’ve seen a ton of people reposting this, and very few seem to realize when he says “bloodless” he means their blood. Ours has always been the goal of their project. “If the left allows it” means if we just lay down and let them kill us already.

I mean, Broadway also prices their seats like everyone going to the show is flying in by personal chopper from the hamptons, so a car service from the heliport just makes sense in that context.

The day Stanley Tucci prepared us for is finally here and I have to say, I was less surprised when every @johnrogers.bsky.social story about corporate and political malfeasance and corruption came true.

I feel like if I was a Disney exec, I’d be calling the lawyers, not to send a C&D, but to extend an offer. They’re doing R-rated stuff now, this could be their fucken flagship on that sea.

Maybe a new rule where if you damage the cybertruck in any way, you get to stay in. Could be as simple as splashing it with water or seeing it in the rain.

Okay but you have to remember who you’re dealing with here. Amy Coney Barrett definitely saw that bullshit kitty litter for school kids who identify as cats story and thought it was true, and a personal attack on her very soul that must be answered with as much institutional violence as possible.

I’m my wow days, I helped run guilds sized for the 40 person raids (required a guild of about 150) and later the 10 person raids (took about 25) and the larger sized group was a god damned nightmare. There was always some stupid drama so you always had to be recruiting replacements.

Okay, so you’re currently president, and the Supreme Court has unilaterally declared you a dictator for life, in preparation for your current political opponent’s reign that may or may not start next year. What’s your first act, and if it isn’t assassinating your opponent, why?

I always knew Barrett would vote to would remove her own right to vote, and Thomas would vote to vacate his own marriage, but I never assumed all six of those dummies would sign a decision that makes them a domestic threat to the republic and grants the president the right to kill them all.

I mean, it’s right there in the oath, “to preserve, protect and defend….against all enemies, foreign and domestic” so assassinating Supreme Court justices who are absolutely intent on installing a permanent dictator seems pretty official to me.

BINGPOT, now I do a fresh install of nvidia’s software, and ask it to update, and it works! Computer is done with hard crashing for now. Not sure what went wrong with that march driver that fucked things up so badly that it couldn’t auto update, but 30 year old computer knowledge helped me through.

Next, I add a new device, and select that I have a disk with the drivers, and I point it at that folder. Apparently the latest driver download package includes like 100 .inf files so this takes a while for it to add all of them, and finally find one that works. It picked one from December 2023

I find the driver package I just downloaded and I open up winrar, because I know that .exe file has an archive inside with .inf driver files. I extract them to a known folder, and then I go into device manager and remove the display adapter. You can do this because windows has generic video drivers.

What your manufacturer or Best Buy will do to fix a problem like this is just wipe the whole fucking machine and start over. It solves a lot of this sort of problem without making my blood boil, as it already was at this point. But I didn’t want to take off and nuke the entire site from orbit yet.

I checked my nvidia drivers, and they hadn’t been updated since…March? So I attempted to update. Fail. Well, that’s weird. Restart, try again. Fail. Okay, uninstall their software, try a fresh install. Fail. This is I think where anyone not using computers in the 1990s would have sent it for repair.

So I guessed that there was some common instruction they were using that my video driver didn’t like. See, if a game crashes to desktop, that’s harder to fix, but if it takes out the whole computer that’s usually either the video card or ram, both have shut down to avoid physical damage built in.

So what had happened was, Valheim and Deeprock Survivor had both started crashing. And it got to where instead of just dumping the program, they took the whole computer with them. The thing they have in common is both use Unity and were recently updated.

I’m not in the next episode of A Riverdale Runs Through It because my computer stopped working this weekend, and I spent yesterday morning fixing it, and getting so mad about it that I couldn’t think of being funny for recording that afternoon.

There’s a lot of time travel stories where the traveler back to the past communicates forward in time by putting ads in the classified section of print newspapers, which presumably exist in some kind of archival state in the future, but like. That sort of thing is already going extinct.

How long before the 6-3 court realizes that nobody has the power to stop them, or even the will to act against them in any way, and just start voting on decisions without writing tedious fake reasons. They could do corruption so much faster if they just voted and called it good.

My dad used to tell a story about how he was carrying a computer program from his lab to the computer down the hall and someone bumped into him and knocked the “program” out of his hands, ruining a ton of work and after that, he invented numbering his punch cards with a pen.

Their entire project seems to have the goal of declaring the 14th amendment to be unconstitutional, and if they can somehow manage, they’d love to wreck 15 and 19 too, regardless of personal consequences. Like, we shouldn’t be guessing what precedent is safe, we should ask how far they’ll go.

Oh, no, it’s a pitch and putt, you get one club that’s a 9-iron on one end and a putter on the other, with a shoulder strap, and you carry that with you as you do flips and shit between strokes

Parfour sounds like a radical combination of free running and golf. Like, you choose one club and try to carry it through all of the obstacles on that hole as fast and with as few strokes as possible.

Involuntary psychiatric treatment happens too much already. In most places you can be involuntary committed for up to 72 hours. They force you to consent by threatening it will be worse if they get a judge involved. And boy does it fucking suck. Collective “treatment” that’s mostly just neglect.
