printer ink costs a lot, i think, so fuck your bank account too

 

and plenty of printers sell their own ink cartridges and have those cartridges a different shape than any other so you have to get it from them unless you know how to refill the cartridge!
it all makes "sense" now

 

oh capitalism...

The parents running that YouTube prank channel lost custody of 2 of their kids.

 

Important News!!! Please look at this handsome boy

 

Oh man. Ages ago I was looking for a passage I had read somewhere, talking about the Original Sin being two children locked in a room, set against each other, and I couldn't find it. Google came up with nothing.
I just found it again -- It's from chapter 15 of rainoflittlefishes homestuck/avengers crossover fic "Tony Stark is not Willie Wonka", and goes like this:

 

It's so hard to come up with an original sin these days!

 

I'm not doing okay

 

anything we can do to help?

 

Allyssa has been listening to me vent, which is very much appreciated. I'll be okay.

 

I want to get into tabletop gaming because there are some extremely pretty dice out there.

Spoiler: Diiiiice

apparently i like blue and purple lol

 

Cheap and easy ways to dress up as a disney character: go!

(I have a costume party on Saturday, and zero inspiration. Harry Potter would have been way easier tbh)

 

acquire a winnie the pooh plush
wear a yellow t shirt and blue shorts
you're now chrisopher robin

 

Long sleeved white shirt or white tank top (she wears both), denim overalls, a flat newsboy type cap, and bubblegum, and you're Audrey from Atlantis.

 

You could also wear a purple crop top and green leggings, possibly with scales drawn in with a fabric marker, and be Ariel.

 

Thanks, both! I think I have almost decided to go as Marie from The Aristocats. White T-shirt, long white skirt fashioned from some white sheet I have to dig up somewhere, pink bow around my nek and a pink bow in my hair along with some white fluffy cat ears I'm sure I should be able to buy somewhere.

 

i have had this damn song stuck in my head since first hearing it. i now share.
edit: oh hey i found it on youtube instead. 8D

 

Amusement at someone complaining about Project Zomboid adding more "chores." "I want to fight zombies, not have to do a million chores like real life"

The appeal of PZ is the realism. It's the Sims in the zombie apocalypse. There are literally hundreds of "fight zombie" games. I play PZ because having to keep track of a million things- all those ~chores~ keeps my brain busy and the zombies keep things chaotic enough I don't go autopilot/fade back into my dissociation.

I'm not annoyed, just laughing because wow dude did you even read the description before you bought the game? Do you even play it? Why are you complaining on an update page about something that's a core part of the philosophy?

 

Apparently, if you cross a corgi with a different dog breed, you get a corgi that dressed up as that different dog breed.

 

would it be too snarky and jackassy to drop them a line asking if they have a supplemental job position for spellchecking

either way i think the way that i jump to noticing the typos instead of being dazzled by the sales pitch is a sign that i wouldn't be a good fit for them but. y'know. three in one sentence, man.

eta fasr is now underlined
