Got locked out of my IG account and the main reason I care about getting it back or disabled is so that my contacts on there don’t think I’m an idiot for trying to sell them bitcoin or cheap laptops or whatever. And I feel like an idiot for losing access in general like a sucker.

Just finished book 1 earlier this year, looking forward to getting to the rest of them.

I was looking for McCarthy ITT. I’m going to read Blood Meridian this year after listening to the audiobook years ago. I read The Road around the same time and struggled to get through it because it was so absolutely dreary. I get it obviously I just wanted to say that.

I would recommend also No Country For Old Men as I thought it was all the things McCarthy is amazing at but isn’t so violent as the Judge’s gang or as consistently hopeless as the world of The Road. It’s paced like a thriller while still having an amazing villain. Talking about CM makes me think I should reread these books. I was just out of college when I read/listened to them.

I’m really looking forward to getting to DBZ to see the androids again. I remember thinking Android 16 had an interesting character arc but it’s been such a long time.

I’m watching Dragon Ball #60 so I’ve got a long way to go.

e: i tried to re-read the series last year and petered out in The Dark Forest.

REINFORCING!

what annoys me is that people, stupid ones, think that yelling “ad hom!” at insults thinks that means the argument is invalid.

so x/twitter is now nuking accounts that mention Hans Kristian Graebener is stonetoss/red panels? that’s great.

im sure it’s being picked up now by right wing activists but from the kym article about it the beginning of it was a steam-chud made a curator page to just “not recommend” any game he found that SBI worked on and a SBI employee found it and posted about it on x/twitter. they claimed that steam should remove it for harassment. i can’t read the proof and the poster is private now.

this is when the rage really whipped up into a frenzy against the company. so you’d have to be a better internet forensic analyst than me to see who started RT’ing it into RW circles first.

Has Chapo ever talked about “Confederacy of Dunces”? I listened to the audiobook in December (a couple of times) and for the first time in a while I wanted to hear the gang’s opinion on Ignatius J. Riley and his hijinks.

hell yeah

It’s so embarrassing being addicted to this hobby with these people.

the entire subreddit is crying that the hardest difficulty is too hard! it’s supposed to be!

I feel like I came out of a ten thousand year coma after having a posting relapse coming here. Has someone written a Hexbear Manifesto? Is that kinda what the c/news bulletins are? I’m just curious about the logistics and differences of HB and lemmygrad? and like they’re integrated somehow? but different?
