genuinely fuck the joker franchise for taking the title folie à deux away from fall out boy. now people are gonna associate it with this shit instead of one of the greatest albums of all time. i hate it here.

anyone remember those scales with the springs in 'em? all i ever see these days are digital scales but those things made the best noises. i think i've seen some kitchen scales that still use spring mechanisms, but it's been a while.

technology is weird.

from the beginning

Very funny seeing the dem advisors freak out and go "WE NEED TO BUILD PODCAST BROS IN A LAB" as a response to right wing streamers and influencers and Joe Rogan as though they didn't just spend the past year sending cops to universities to beat, arrest, and tear gas left-wing kids on college campuses who idk. May have been useful with this whole "new media ecosystem" thing.

Del’s Favourite Songs Poll: 1980s

I thought the 80s would be easier to do since I always think of this as not being such a great decade for esc for me, especially towards the end, but there's still a lot I love to choose from!

Songs below the cut:

my mother, ever trying to invent drama and catastrophe and get me over to her house so she can argue with me, has informed me today, the first time she's talked to me since the last ~catastrophe~ she overreacted to and fought with me, that there is 'water on the side of the house'

outside? yes.

it's been raining on and off here for a while. it is winter. the water is outside. in the yard. I was like. ok.............. it's outside. it's raining. this..... isn't a problem?

this was an offensive answer

the whole vini jr - ballon d'or thing tells me two things. first of all, the majority of people online are in fact either very young or very small-minded people who don't even have the attention span to actually check whether the comment under a rodri post or an olivia rodrigo post.

second, it is so obvious how strikers & offensive players are in favour of the public & a lot of fans. football did not 'get worse' because a midfield player won that award. in fact, it just shows how big of an impact rodri had on mancity as well as spain. i don't care about the ballon d'or but the fact that madrid is being a cry baby now (when last year someone who really should have won the award but instead it was given to messi again, was being a very fair & respectful second place) is hilarious.

i came this close to making a scam expose video abt the emily the strang e kickstarter & the only reason i didn't was that wasn't an established genre at the point i cared enough abt that. but i still think abt being in a wikipedia edit battle where i'm pretty sure dark horse pr or something was camping on the page. i'd just paste my formatted section of a couple paragraphs overviewing the situation and it'd get deleted by the next day. the whole page was written straight up like an advertisement trying to entice potential readers with character descriptions that were overly detailed and made a layperson's eyes gloss over the words. editing the basic info to be more streamlined also was reversed just as quickly. i gave up bc i had better things to do but it's still funny in retrospect.

LETS FUCKING GO ANATOMIE D'UNE CHUTE (anatomy of a fall for my english speaking mutuals) WON NOT ONE BUT TWO GOLDEN GLOBES ! I LOVED THAT MOVIE !

[megtheeestallion]

[irawhiti]

man there is really no way out of poverty huh. like for real.

[cant-get-no-worse]

Do you think we'll actually win tho. Like do you really believe this team has a chance or.

I think sport is the easiest, safest way to practice the vertue of relentless optimism because it bears little to no consequence if few boxes are checked. Said boxes to be checked are: has this club alrady smashed your hopes and dreams before? If no, best not hope cause the fall is higher than Barça's debt. If yes, wooo, then it's pessimism out. Pessimism and realism only wish it had the sheer tomfoolery of optimism. Optimism in sport is silly and so funny, even more so when your team has actually already faced tremendous defeats in the past. You think Napoli-Barça can hit me worse than corner taken quickly? You think Napoli-Barça can have me shout STOP THE COUNT before it gets to 8-2? Post-remontada disappointment, Neymar se queda, Liverpool, Bayern, Roma, 2019 UCL run, Messi leaving, mate that club has smashed my optimistic virginity more times than I can count. Boludo I'm NUMB. It's routine by now. I might as well have fun with it. I think we'll win, I think I'm gonna have the time of my life and if we don't eh so what? We'll go for a next round next year. The more we wait for it the more ecsatically beautiful our celebrations will be of it.

Lol 2023 has been a hell of a year, but I played so many incredible games this year! So I wanted to share a list of my top 10 favorite games I played this year!

10. Crab Champions

You get to be a crab! What's not to like? But seriously I've had a lot of fun playing this with my friends this year, and for an early access game they've done a good job of having a good bit of content!

9. Coffee Talk

This game was just so sweet. I loved getting to know all of the characters and their stories. I do wish it had been a little longer, but I know there is a part 2, so I'm excited to play that some day!

8. Unpacking

I absolutely love easy going games like this one. It was just oh so calming to play. Really hit the tism in the right places!

7. Cozy Grove

The coziest game. No but seriously it's so cute, very animal crossing like. There's only so much you can do each day, but I kind of like that. It's a game I won't play all night, but can play every day!

6. The Outlast Trials

Yet another early access game I played this year and man does this one actually scare me! I've played a lot of horror games and few have made me jump like this one. And I get to play with my friends and hear them scream too lol! I'm excited to see what they continue to add to this game!

5. Pathologic 2

I think this is the most stressed I've ever been playing a videogame ever lol! This game makes me second guess myself constantly and I still haven't finished it yet! But the story is fantastic. A game that makes you feel hopeless but still makes you want to play it!

4. We Were Here Forever

What an incredible conclusion to the We Were Here series! I have enjoyed all of the games, but this one really had the best puzzles and added so much to the story! And of all the finales to these games, this one was the best for sure!

3. Lethal Company

There's a reason it's gotten so big on TikTok, this game is so much fun! With the more company mod I've been able to play with so many of my friends and enjoy the utter insanity of it all! I may always die in this game, but at least I always laugh while playing lmao!

2. Hades

I've been wanting to play this one for a long time and I'm so glad I finally did! I'm not usually one for roguelite, but this game was incredible! I romanced all the romance options and got to be poly! I found my mom! I pet Cerberus so many times!! I died a lot before I finally beat Hades, but I got there eventually lol!

1. Baldur's Gate 3

There's a reason this won game of the year, it absolutely deserved it. I am 200 hours in and haven't beaten the game because there's so much content! So much to explore! So many wonderful companions, making it impossible to choose who to romance!!! (I romanced the twink, of course) I love this game. I may even love it more than Skyrim, a game I've put 1500 hours of my life into. I think bg3 is going to beat that.
