will this year be a year in which we leap, as a collective?

I find it’s important to allow yourself to be vulnerable to a moderate degree, to give people the chance to expose themselves as a giver or taker.

Maybe it works like caterpillar goop in the cocoon. It’s goop, and not exactly a caterpillar anymore, but experiments have shown that there’s at least some persistence of being, even after the former caterpillar-goop has become a butterfly. E.g. If you train a caterpillar to react to a specific stimuli with a negative response, the resultant butterfly will respond to the same stimuli in the same way that the caterpillar did.

First they banned Uncle Roger, and now they’re coming after Chef Wang Gang :(

The hype is real, but tbh Warframe has accrued more playtime from me.

I understand the necessity of requiring sign-up in order to vote, but are there that many people that sign up for the game awards site just to be eligible to vote?

I’ve gotten back into Warframe on Steam/PC recently. I’ve been pretty busy with work, so it’s nice to have a game where I can log in, do a mission or two, log off, and get back to work in 20 minutes or so. I like to play it when I need to take a short break from work, too.

I’ll probably be playing this until Spider-Man 2 gets around to releasing on Steam.

It’s been stuck in my head for at least a few days, maybe longer.

Thanks for the detailed reply! It’s a lot to think about, but I’ll definitely be mulling over the options! :)

I get mine when I shake my head to stop the memories! :)

I’ve been working on a graphic novel and have toyed with the idea of creating an instance and posting it here, chapter by chapter as I finish them, but sequential gallery-like image hosting is pretty bad and clunky, iirc. Does anyone know if there are any improvements slated in that regard, or if there are any solutions or workarounds to that effect?

I bought this on my Steam Deck a couple hours ago, and I’m having fun with it so far, even in spite of the fact that I’m pretty terrible at these kinds of games. The choice of difficulty level helps a lot in that regard, making things bearable without making things too easy.

The grappling hook lets you throw enemies’ projectiles back at them, and you can chuck the bodies of defeated enemies at new enemies, which is a (new to me) mechanic I’ve been having lots of fun with. There are 8 stages/bosses a la Megaman, and I’m two stages deep so far. Pretty fun. :)

Same, with Memmy. I’m also using Liftoff, Thunder, and Voyager, but those apps were fine. Seems to be a Memmy issue.

My time in retail and working at a liquor store have shown me that a significant portion of the general population are just straight up illiterate, mostly illiterate, or functionally illiterate. I had to stop allowing myself to get upset when customers would ask dumb questions for the sake of my own sanity.
