Replaying Witcher 3. The news of the upcoming DLC made me wanna check it out again, even though the DLC is at least a year away. I hadn’t played it since before the “Next Gen” upgrade, so was curious to see how that looked too.

The game holds up, and the graphics for the landscapes and buildings is still top tier. The only thing showing its age is the faces of the characters, mainly the human ones. But human faces are always a challenge, no matter the budget!

I’m so autistic that the idea of mixing any kind of food with bodily greaseholes is beyond horrendous to me, even if it’s something other than stinking cheese. Like, I’ll happily chomp on whatever bodypart you want me to, but if you first drizzle delicious syrup on it, forget it. Food and sexjuices are non-overlapping magesteria.

Nope.

In this case, “sucking dick” is a euphemism for “having your ass handed to you constantly and easily”. Kinda like how “I fucked the dog” means “I messed that up badly” and not “I literally fucked a dog”.

I’m not on the list, but I happened to scroll randomly onto this fella when checking:

Line 1208: fartographer

😆

I think the environmental knock-on effect of wiping out all gorillas might cause more than one human to die in the future, directly or indirectly.

Also, gorilla dicks are small and they cum pretty much instantly, so you could easily get through all gorillas on Earth in an afternoon. Matt Walsh might get it done in 20 minutes, what with his extensive experience of sucking huge amounts of dick on Twitter.

To be fair, I bet he absolutely nailed that job. It’s like Hannibal Lector being in charge of catering.

Great wee game, def worth checking out if you’re into that sorta thing.

Why is a mixed race immigrant to at least 3 different countries trotting out racist gibberish about black people like he’s a white nationalist on the Steam forums?

Witcher 3 hard copies required activation to your GOG account before they could work. Hitman (2016) was 70% locked behind the worst DRM in human history, but they sold it on their store until they were pressured by customers not to.

And Devotion still ain’t ‘preserved’ because the CCCP hivemind told them not to have it on their site, and they obeyed instantly.

GOG can suck all the dicks with that self-righteous bullshit.

This is my main reason for preferring to read on e-readers. A book is a long-ass journey, and to be staring at a regular screen for that long can be painful business.

I also like that there’s at least the suggestion of old-school physical connection to the book. It’s a device that does just one thing (and is very good at it as a result), and you find yourself treating it the way you used to treat a paper book. I guess it’s the same sort of “positive friction” you get when you listen to vinyl or something like that. Makes the experience a bit nicer. Like, yeah, you could open notepad on a smartphone and read the complete works of Shakespeare for free in Courier New font, having to scroll every 2 paragraphs, but who the fuck wants to do that?

The basic form factor of the book has been perfected over centuries, and e-readers emulate it to a fair degree.

I think most e-readers are waterproof, too 🤔 One would hope so, at least! Reading in the tub or on a beach is one of the benefits of its portability.

Photos mean precisely fuck-all in today’s world, unfortunately.

Looking forward to his funeral where 200 dudes in assless chaps and sleeveless tuxedo shirts pay their respects.

This post is how I found out 😆

It’s hilarious that Joe Biden is giving eulogising statements about dead Republicans who are half his age and who complained about his oldness 😎

I really want to know what “science” he was banking on here. Like, how does this injection work, according to him? I assume he chose gold (as opposed to lead or tin) because he has gawdy Trumpesque notions of success and opulence, but what the fuck does injecting it do (again, according to him)? 🤔

Currently reading Murderland: Crime and Bloodlust in the Time of Serial Killers by Caroline Fraser

The thesis of the book is basically that environmental pollution, particularly lead, might be the thing that caused so many serial killers to pop up during the period of the late '60s to the late '70s. Only half way through it so far, and not quite convinced by the theory yet. Although it’s indisputable that such pollution can damage brains to a severe degree, I’m just not sure how you get from “damaged” to “I’d better serial kill some women”. Random violence and anger management issues, sure. But the highly specific and MO-driven criminality of serials killers seems like something else entirely. We’ll see what evidence comes in later chapters!

EDIT: Finished. Yeah, sounds like complete bullshit to me. She was even attributing the existence of the Bloods and the Crips to smog, for fuck’s sake. It’s as though she’s genuinely unable to imagine any reason for any violence other than pollution-induced brain damage.

That any government or public figure would subject the public to X’s cesspool in order to contact or keep up with them is as fucked up as the platform itself. It’d be less fucked up to paste government news bulletins onto the walls of a crackhouse.

I think I blocked a couple of accounts years ago that were just reposting ancient memes from reddit in bot-like numbers. But it seems like the majority of content here falls under that category, so blocking seems futile. Can’t even use downvoting to correct the issue because our votes aren’t private/anonymous here and I don’t need a large account seeing that I downvote their content every time I come across it. It would have to feel personal at that point 😆

I don’t mind big accounts in principle, I just don’t want to see memes from 2018 being reposted every day with the same titles, and for there to be no other content from those accounts.

A brave man and a necessary conversation about the casual shaming of people’s genitalia.
