leaving typo as “Maxwell” gives a different 90s flashback coffee this time

Omg Maxwell flashbacks

I don’t know how you didn’t instantly think mixtapes when you saw it

The painstaking hours were the point

Journey before destination 😉

it gets better. kids now upper single/lower double digits, and I can reuse stuff for dayzz where it was previously multiple changes per day

bonus trauma memory: just about to go to work, no wait I need a new shirt, tie and jacket

now I’m late ¯\(ツ)/¯

nah anatomical L/R socks are god tier, they are my sensory delight and demand

podcasts ftw for any house chores

I love music, and spend hours listening to tunes with my ridiculously expensive IEMs while working but for some reason it doesn’t cut the mustard with house admin

Can I just say I think this was eloquently put, and I philosophically and intellectually largely agree. In Australia where I live voting is compulsory; in that context there is less conflict in that “d, all of the above” praxis can be actualised simultaneously.

However, I am ambivalent about it in the context of the USA, however, where militating every possible vote against someone as egregiously awful and negatively impactful as Donald Trump seems from the outside to be a no brainer.

I say this admittedly selfishly, as the decisions he/his handlers make particularly in the realm of rolling back of environmental rights seem to impact the entire world for generations to come.

However, maybe this is just our Great Filter ¯\(ツ)/¯

Life will continue, perhaps it’s for the best it does so without H “sapiens”

But I weep for my (and all of our) children.

Hear hear. All of the above.

I didn’t have the previous model, was never available in my region; so I have an Xbox one I am currently lugging around, still functional [as it ever has been] thank goodness. Bigger current problem is some arsehole mosquito bit me on the right thumb pad last night, bastard, so that’s exquisitely annoying using any controller; even the coveted Steam controller can’t hep that I suspect!

thanks gang, I appreciate the sentiments and advice; and shall do just that.

Also, talk about a good problem to have, being on an amazing holiday in Europe 🙃

can you read I’m not American and have no dog in this fight apart from not wanting the USA to fuck the world worse than currently, but they literally mentioned genocide/Israel being their biggest crime

I was just there and learned the same thing! 2023 is wild, but better than the alternative I guess

Hail Eris!
