  • A little unrelated, but I used to live like a block away from a McDonald’s. Which fucking sucked when I was high late at night (they closed their lobby at 7, so “late” for this Christian-family-owned franchise that blasted Christian worship music literally all day every day was any time after then) and I couldn’t just walk my ass down and get some fuckin nuggets.

    And fuck me, or any other pedestrian during the pandemic, because at one point they didn’t even have their lobby open, so you could only order through the drive-thru or the app, and fuck you if you don’t have a car but use the app


  • I had multiple people leave it at the door across from mine at an apartment I used to live at. Once, someone left food at my door, and knocked which is surprising where I live, when I hadn’t ordered anything. That time it was for the person across from me, and they opened their door because they were waiting for a knock.

    Other times, I had people just straight up leave the food at my door, no knock of any kind, and they wouldn’t even mark it as delivered. I found out later after going looking for my food and seeing it cold on the floor.

    Once, a driver actually stole my order. They picked it up because I saw them pull into the restaurant on the map, then a minute or so later cancelled the pickup. The next person who went to grab the order messaged me saying the restaurant told them someone picked it up already, but thankfully they were able to make another for me. I was pretty pissed that time.



  • Mother. Fuckin.

    SWAT KATS

    Two junkyard bros who also happen to be super engineers, create this badass jet that has all kinds of awesome weapons and tactical capabilities, and they use it to become vigilantes to save the city from evil and destruction.

    Fuckin AWESOME theme song


    Justice League/Justice League Unlimited

    Great storytelling (imo) and action. Maybe not so much the music (aside from the theme songs).


    Young Justice

    If you enjoy superheroes/DC, this is a cool show about the sidekicks splitting off and kinda doing their own thing but still working with the Justice League. They mainly focus on covert missions like going undercover to break into secret superpower smuggling rings and things like that. It does get a little bogged down in some “personal” stories and relationship stuff, but imo it’s bearable and balanced out by the action and overarching story.


  • Fuckin love Metalocalypse. And it gets kind of intense towards the end, I still need to watch Army of the Doomstar. Doomstar Requiem is honestly probably one of the best albums I’ve ever heard from any band ever.

    Also, I used to love Megas XLR too. Such a weird “rule-of-cool” show. An alien shows up with a device that turns your car into a giant mech? And then you have to defend your planet (and the galaxy) from giant creatures? Hell yes.











  • Don’t forget the thousands of mods, too. And like the other reply said about server/game world settings before you start playing, there are mods that add even more settings to tweak, or they make gameplay smoother (or harder), or they add new things like weapons and vehicles. There are even entire new maps to add to play in.

    It’s very doable solo, but it’s kind of a slog if you want to do anything significant in a playthrough, plus it can get very lonely and isolating.



  • This is the reality everyone on Lemmy, and even reddit, needs to face. We’re a minority of a minority of people. All the people who glaze and go nonstop about Linux? That’s not even half of Lemmy users, and you can find someone like that in just about every thread on Lemmy, regardless of context.

    We’re such a miniscule group of people we probably wouldn’t even register on studies about social behavior.



  • I fucking hate living in today’s world.

    You can’t even talk about different games while playing certain ones, like what bullshit is that? I really feel like corporations are policing people’s lives nowadays, what with Nintendo being shitty to everyone, CoD not letting you talk about certain other games in-game, YouTube and other social media companies censoring any goddamn word that has even the slightest negative connotations (kill, suicide, pedophile, etc.}

    Like the world just feels so infantilized and people can’t actually be people anymore, like we all need to be told what to do.

    And in the end, I think it could all be explained with the rise of fascism literally everywhere right now. This world and existence fuckin sucks.
