jesusfuckingchrist. Regurgitate much?

It is actually kinda fun and relaxing.

😶

Are we playing the same game? Full of snotty squeakers and Xbone chucklefucks? Hell, the “cheat” coding community is largely fueled by the desire to avoid other players in order to make it “kinda fun” at all. 🤪

How apropos that steampunk is what you get when you slap half-cocked period fashion on highschool theater tier drama and handwave science (ie. physics, economics, politics, ecology, etc.) to cobble together tired tropes for semi-literate self-styled “outcasts”… Basically Twilight for LARPers. 🤷🏼‍♂️

edit: I see steampunk cringe doesn’t hinder the ability to silently downvote. Cute.

To be fair, John Oliver is the pūteketeke of the year.

I like the Daft Punk cover duo with the blimp.

Here’s a noble Eurasian badger in rococo stylings, inspired by your piece here 🤓🍻

Awww! 😱🥰

A spoonfulla cocaine helps that medicine go down…

Yes, yes, I can see your huge guillotine from here, kiddo. So big. What a hero.

That’s exactly where they want you, though, neighbor. Backed into a corner and pressed down by inevitability. The thing is, we only fight each other, instead of those pushing the pawns around the board.

That’s myopic as fuck. Shallow, yes, but shockingly self-centered. Are you in school, still?

Your opening question is naive at best and disingenuous otherwise.

Life is pain. Get a helmet.

“Evidence” is more easily manufactured than found.

See: humanity’s time-honored addiction to religion despite the endless war, rape, child abuse, about myriad other vile acts that it is directly the cause of.

Also, because*

Next.

edit: What a soft-bellied bunch in this little suckhole you’ve found together. I wish you all the best. You’re gonna need it. 🤣

Hopium is one helluva drug, citizen.

Don’t tell me. It’s math, isn’t it? You’re gonna study “math”, right?

NGL, that drink seems overly sweet and needlessly simplistic (add gin or vodka to the “martini”, FFS), but… I guess?

You might want to look into Ironsworn 🤘🏼

She’s “one that got away” that I remember fondly from time to time. A lovely person as well as being nonchalantly hot in such an easy, elegant way. I know she made an effort, sure, but it always seemed like the healthier kind — in that it was more for her own appreciation of herself rather than putting it out there for others’ attention/validation.

Now that I think about it, there was a time years after the scene above when she came into my restaurant as a health inspector (I knew she worked as one, but it’s a big, food-centric county and I’d not run into her on the clock before).

I did everything to play it cool, as if I’d not been low-key wondering for years what it’d be like to make her laugh, spend hours in her company, etc. Even tried the ol’ hypothetical angle of “if I weren’t at work, and you weren’t actively inspecting my business here, what would you say to catching up over a drink later?” She blushed when she replied that she wasn’t too sure [name] would take that very well. I went with “Fair enough, but that’s why I figured it was best to not invite him.”, and we laughed it off.

At the very least, I can safely say that she knew and implied that she appreciated my attention, but it was a non-starter for reasons. Ah well. C’est la guerre. 🤌🏼
