I apologise for not including a tone indicator, I do try but I keep thinking I’m more obvious than I am. It was genuinely meant as a joke, as in “no, lalalala, go away, I don’t want to hear it”.

But then you wisely decided to shut your dirty mouth.

Edit: /jk

I know Matt primarily from tumblr and the absolute bullshit he’s pulling over there so I’m biased. Thank you for that clarification :)

Which one is that, I get confused because I use neither and the technicalities scare me: the one owned by known fucking weirdo (and CEO!) photomatt or the other, underdog one?

If the former: that’s some bullshit, goddammit.

If the latter: haha, so quirky!

I also thought until just now that the other headline I saw about this actually was an onion.

Wot? Perplexity ai, that app that I have on my phone and that I sometimes ask random things when I want to be angry at something and that gives entirely useless and wrong answers 95% of the time? lollmaoeven

Only if plucked.

Doesn’t matter. Green Mario is perfect. Working class, deals with literal shit daily, is scared of everything, and still does the thing. Red Mario has it easy, he’s not scared of CEO Bowser, he doesn’t have to overcome his fear - because he’s confident. Which is cool, good for him. But Red Mario is unachievable as a role model. Be more like Green Mario who does it scared, who does it alone, who does it anyway.

Yes. And I’m tired of pretending otherwise.

Of course, dear.

That makes so much sense and I will stop looking for “clues” now lol. You’ve put in a lot more work than I have and I salute you for it.

It looks like this now:

He must’ve quoted proverbs 28:6 somewhere? “Better is the poor that walketh in his integrity, Than he that is perverse in his ways, though he be rich.”

Edit: wait. In the OP he has 286 posts. What.

Tea is an inefficient delivery system for caffeine. If there’s no caffeine in it, it’s a warm beverage that relaxes you. So why would the industrious German worker bee want to bother with tea bags when coffee is right there? Unless of course the bee is sick and needs to relax, doctor’s orders, to get back to work as soon as possible. ;)

My husband is Northern German, close enough to England that he was horrified at the thought of making tea in the microwave. And he doesn’t even really drink tea when he’s not sick.

And? CEOs seem to be welcome there.

I refuse. (denial phase)

Seriously, there’s nothing inherently wrong with remakes but why do it if you’re not trying to make it BETTER? Or at least substantially different? Do a different take on the material, don’t just swap the CG animated boy for a real life actor while leaving everything including the CG animated dragon as it was, for fuck’s sake.

Or video games using noises that sound exactly like the fire alarm in my building.

TIL shandy is not “sham brandy” as in non-alcoholic (??) brandy but what we call Radler. Learning all kinds of things today. Thank you OOP.

You’re not notified on Bluesky but since the information is public, there are services that let you look up if you’re on a list (clearsky.app is the most popular one - it might be the only one for now? idklol).

And Boromir met four of them. And a dwarf.
