Fancy cupcakes are 70% icing, really not that nice and a waste of money
The icing is the only part I like - I literally eat the cake separately so that I can maximize the icing-to-cake ratio in a single bite.
This is mostly because frosting is “wet” and offsets how dry the cake is. I dislike the dryness of the cake so much I prefer to eat most of it in one go and get over it, and then enjoy the rest of the cupcake with my preferred 9:1 proportion of icing to cake. 😆
That exclusive content in physical games is a cruel disservice to late discoverers. “Exclusive” content should just be delayed public release content instead - something for the early adopters, but not unavailable to people years later.
Even just the normal game, if they’re discontinuing production, should be made available as a digital purchase (including STL and print-ready files) for people coming along years later. We have the technology to not screw over potential future fans, and it’s not that expensive to keep a small website running - especially if they’re still going as a company. Looking at you, CMON Games.
The “phones are bad and suck your life away” crowd has gotten way too big. Yes, it’s easy to waste time on them, but that’s just something you gotta learn, like not watching TV series all night. You’re a grown up, deal with it. Also maybe you feel bad for spending all that time on your phone just because feeling bad for that feels cool? It’s actually your life you can spend it however you want. You don’t need to be productive or successful to be a worthy human. Be a lazy shit that plays stupid phone games while on a train to work.
The contemporary disdain for postmodernism was a Psy op designed to completely destroy philosophy from the inside. And the supposed replacements for post modernism (metamodernism or whatever) were just pop culture millennial distractions that just took attention away from the philosophical issues of the inadequacies of language and crisis of our communications systems. We became stuck in limbo. Cultural conversation dumbed down by useless culture wars articulated in low attention span pop culture commentary and therapy speak.
Probably the last one I’m standing on.
