I knew a nice Canadian that had a crush on me once. I still messed it up.

Definitely did not have one of those. Thanks for the info!

Also my first console, though I don’t remember a TTS module. The only thing we used the keyboard for was word scramble I think. I was very young at the time lol.

Still have no clue how my parents got one, or why. My guess is off the back of a truck.

Just one more merger, bro…

Yo, Mike… they’re fuckin hoagies.

“Holy sheet!”

A friend of mine reached out to a couple of Nebula creators to ask them if it was more beneficial financially for people to watch their stuff on Nebula or YT. Neither had a cut and dried answer, saying that YT views are important for long term discoverability that was hard to quantify vs getting a direct cut of the Nebula money/YT ads. So I’ll sometimes watch shorter-form videos on YT and save the deep dives/binging for Nebula.

Edit because I forgot the point I was responding to: Grady linking to YT might be a case of needing that engagement either short or long term.

So it’s hard to give any lesson…

Only if your stance demands that one “side” can do no wrong while the other “side” is cartoonishly evil. Otherwise the lesson is pretty simple. Don’t simp for states.

That’s… what I said? Liberated. Like China did to Tibet. And Russia is doing to Ukraine. For what is liberty if not being forcibly subjected to the laws of a foreign government asserting that the land and populace is theirs by divine/historical/imagined right? Sure Hong Kong governed itself perfectly well before Britain unclenched their greedy imperialist hands. And sure, China agreed to let Hong Kong continue to govern itself afterwards. But when it comes down to it, those people belong to China. They needed to be liberated from the idea that they were independent. Had those protestors simply submitted to The Party, a lot of hubbub could have been avoided.

Should I lay it on thicker, or would an /s suffice? My internal Poe’s Law is having a field day with this.

Now that’s a liberation!
