I really like making ice cream :)

The classic method!

The London Fog ice cream has become one of my specialties, and a favorite to surprise and delight folks. I have yet to see someone resist rolling their eyes back into their head at this one. It's just an extremely good, approachable flavor profile that you basically never see in an ice cream.

They can claim they write their own scripts all they want, but if someone admits to using AI for some parts of their creation I just assume the whole thing is lazy slop!

Happy Birthday Cam!

And also you are correct

You get a Happy Birthday regardless but it is important to point out you are also very much correct

I absolutely hate how true this can be. I have played a part in hiring for my last two workplaces and it really opened my eyes how easy it is to just understand very basic shit like that. Most hiring and recruiting must be carried out by sociopaths I guess.

How do I know people who have spent over a year trying to get an interview but the dumbest motherfucker I've ever met has lost 7 jobs in 6 months. How.

4 hours for newcomers to beat Maniac Mansion blind isn't a test in search of answers. It's a test in search of a narrative.

It's been fun watching everyone play Resident Evil Requiem and collectively go "how did this harmless and extremely autistic girl end up in the FBI" because the honest-to-god answer is "it's the FBI, they're actually all kinda like that"

Man. I've got a pretty strong stomach, but that video of the older veteran getting his arm snapped like a twig by the congressman and his security for protesting made me almost throw up. Jesus CHRIST. That video could singlehandedly radicalize an awful lot of apolitical folks.

Just had the realization that if I had had a kid upon graduating high school (as a couple of my classmates did), that kid could conceivably be graduating high school this year.

Continue killing me, please.
