I was ready to be insulted, but then I remembered that I bought a whole ass Steam Deck and I’ve pretty much used it as a Binding of Isaac machine.

Not necessarily. I’ve beat several thousand levels of a similar game (because I’ve trained my brain that playing it means it’s sleep time and now it knocks me out) and haven’t spent a dime.
No, they’re sweatpants, just with a slimmer fit and tapered legs so they’re a little nicer looking.
I wear a lot of cargo joggers, which are really the best of both worlds. 10/10. I usually have to buy them in men’s because of the eternal struggle for pockets, but it’s worth it.
Many years ago, I worked in a call center. I was sitting with someone who was new helping them take calls and both of our headsets were plugged into the phone. The trainee was helping a store employee and she was just being awful to him. While she went to get something from the customer, I muted the line and said, “God, what a bitch!” except my finger was hovering over the button and I hit it just in time for her to hear me say bitch. I fully panicked and hung up on her. Nobody ever said anything to either of us and this was back when landlines would occasionally cross, so hopefully she thought that’s what happened since she hadn’t heard my voice up until then.
Anyway, I’m pretty sure that’s the origin of why I still don’t trust mute or hold to this day. I’m not talking shit until I know that call is disconnected.
The lesbian flag makes me wish I was a lesbian, so I get it. The ace flag is kind of meh, imo.
Even that wouldn’t always work. This woman found out I was working on my birthday (I always do, but I guess that’s s big deal to some), so she came back with cake, a bottle of prosecco, and flowers. My mom was like, “Was she trying to date you??” That woman was one of the most beautiful people I’ve ever seen in real life, I fucking WISH she was trying to date me. I am not that lucky. It’s only the men my dad’s age that are trying to hook up.
I work in government and we’re not allowed to accept gifts over $50, but I really prefer no one give me anything. Any time someone has, it’s been a thank you for work that’s already done, but I don’t want there to ever be any question about it. Plus, when you’re a younger woman (so not so much these days, but early career), people question if the gifter was angling for something else, which is awkward.
They didn’t say GIMP itself sucks, they said leaning to use it sucks. Those are two different things.
People in FL complaining about not being able to get insurance, this is why. The whole state’s gonna be underwater.
The weeding is insanity. It felt like that’s all we did last summer. I’m now paying some teenagers $40/hr to hand weed it because all the professionals just want to spray everything, and the kids are willing to be really meticulous because they don’t want to jeopardize a really well-paying job.
We’re on step 3 for the back and 4 for the front (kind of, it’s not really wild but it’s all native xeric plants) and I gotta say, highly recommend it. We have so many pollinators. I have to gently shoo them out of the catmint before I prune it because there are so many in there.
Uh, you could literally just go around them and not say anything, or say excuse me or something. Happens all the time, and presumably these walks aren’t at 3am, so most people wouldn’t even question it. Saying, “I’m not a rapist,” is such a weird choice that I’d immediately be on edge.
Ours do that too. It’s so obvious that I’m not sure if they think we’re all stupid, except then I remember that some of my coworkers actually are stupid, so it’s probably aimed at them.
In my case, little of column a, little of column b.
I’m starting to question my life a lot. I’ve played over 4k hours of BoI since the first version. I remember when people warned about WoW before I really gamed and how people were sinking their whole lives into it and I was like, “wow, can’t imagine, that’s crazy,” and now I’m those people. I should go outside.
I know people say it doesn’t matter but I’m the same way with Stardew. I ended up downloading a cheat mod that lets you freeze time because I realized it’s supposed to be a nice, relaxing game, and I wasn’t feeling that way. I don’t use the freeze much, but it lets me enjoy the game without stressing.
I kind of did the opposite but ended up in the same place - I loved the newer Fallouts so I thought I’d give 2 a shot and combat was just so bad that I couldn’t get more than a couple of hours in. I tried it again a couple years later and same thing. I know a lot of people would riot, but I kind of wish they’d remake the exact same story/writing with modernized gameplay so I could experience it.
Thank god for that. Imagine the horror of human babies just clawing their way out when they were ready.
