My back is killing me. Need to buy a new office chair, or standing desk, or yoga ball or something.
the way the country has gone, it'll be short term loss but we'll still eventually make progress. we get terrible leaders on occasion and they do their damage (pretty hard to a minority of people sometimes) and then at least recover from it a bit in a couple decades.
Yeah really. My nieces are pretty advanced though. A lot of violent or scary content on TV or in movies doesn't phase them, perhaps in part because I used to talk a lot to them about how those things are made -- How it's all pretend, how harmless it all is behind the scenes. They compartmentalize.
Taking a historical view, America is a very young country. It's perhaps in part why some things that are viewed as a settled matter in many countries (such as healthcare or abortion rights or any laws whatsoever surrounding guns) are widely viewed with hate and fear in our country. Being a young country we could either get over our growing pains and stabilize, or flame out.
I don't know how closely any of you pay attention to American politics, but our system is beyond broken. It's gridlocked, it's corrupt.. Half our country say and believe things that defy logic and human decency... it's -- I've been paying very close attention to politics since about 2007 and I'm very jaded. Honestly, I think our system is unsaveable. That's why I worry for 2100.

I mean I was watching DBZ when I was like 9 or 10 and I loved it *shrug*
Our system has been corrupt from very early on and half the country has always been ignorant. Jackson for example is worse than anything we have today and he was elected primarily on his ability to speak to the common people and make outrageous claims. In even more recent times we managed to survive mccarthyism which pretty much reads like a dystopian novel.
doomsday predictions remind me of the whole "computers are going to make people antisocial" people have been saying that about things(telephone, telegraph, postal service etc) forever and while there's a grain of truth, it turns out their fears were largely unfounded and they were expressing the same concerned as people in the past
I'm not particularly a conker fan but
I'm curious how some art designers got and kept their jobs.
New Conker
That's what you settle on? Really?
Just let Conker die MS. Don't try and bring him back in some bastardized form.

What the fuck man
My nostalgia is pissed too, they killed conker again , and again
^ I was never a big Conker fan, it's just been something that was kinda there -- I'm just commenting on how that design seems to be objectively hideous. I don't understand it.
You had me at McCarthyism <3
Incidentally, have any of you guys been following the GOP primary stuff? I never really thought our process could surprise me any more, but look at what's happening.. Two people just slinging insults at eachother, primarily around dick size (yes, dick size -- Rubio commented on Trump's small hands and implied his dick is small too), ear size, (Trump was ragging on Rubio's giant ears) sweating, wearing makeup.. I can't even believe what I'm seeing.
If my 8 year old niece engaged in any of this type of behavior she'd be in trouble. She knows better. She's 8.

You're seeing the death throes of the GOP in its current form. It's going to have to burn and rise from the ashes as something much, much different eventually.
This is conduct that would be completely unacceptable in elementary school. Either of my nieces would be sent to the principles office for it then get in trouble at home too. It's amazing that this is the discourse going on between two people running for the leader of the free world.
I understand Rubio is trying desperately anything that'll work against Trump, but at some point as a dignified human being you should just decide it's not worth it and go out on your own terms.
As ever, anyone's welcome to follow or add me on things.

twitter: @twotimingpete
if I recall, I was twotimingpete on the original Xbox, but when I later got a 360 I couldn't get into my account for some reason and made a new one. HorribleJames was a City of Heroes character I made so just typed it in.
certainly not as eloquent as "[John Adams is a] hideous hermaphroditical character, which has neither the force and firmness of a man, nor the gentleness and sensibility of a woman."
That or a nice back cracking massage.
Nice. I love hearing people's stories behind their usernames.
Mine is from middle school when I got into an online game. I wanted my character to be named after the infantry men, grenadiers, for some reason. Spelling mistake left me with this.

twotimingpete, which is my stupid sounding identity on all kinds of things, is basically just random nonsense I barfed into an AIM handle when I was 15. Certain IRL people (mainly ones who knew me from school) still call me Pete as a result of that username... To this day.
That's amazing, but it was never on TV.

Oh christ this twat at work keeps getting worse and worse. The topic of itcoin came up and I jokingly said "Let me tell you about Bitcoin, sir!"
He then went on a rant about how he told his old company to get into Bitcoin and how he was going to set up a mining rig and blah blah blah
*siiigh*
You think that's bad?
Look at this fucking bullshit
"The mother of parliaments". Yeah fucking right.

Mine's legitimately an anagram of my full name
What a bunch of cackling motherfuckers. I want mars attacks to happen there
Yeah, I have a more adult sounding gmail account for whenever I have to give my address out to someone in a situation where it'd be embarrassing to give my normal one. At some point I should put aside the nonsense but it's so entrenched. If you change your twitter username you lose all your history, for example. I don't think PSNs can be changed at all.
Yeah and I was the only one who fucking solved it, lest any of you fuckers forget.
Robert Ian Johnston
psn definitely cannot be changed. both that and my steam account are a dumb username my mom came up with for me for a harry potter contest when I was like 9. all of my new stuff follow my rebrand. twitter(which i don't use anymore), tumblr, tigsource, hearthstone, skype
Maybe I should increasingly phase into Jobbs as time goes. Jobbs is half of the comedy duo personas "Rick & Jobbs" that exists in the deranged collective imagination of a certain circle of friends (again, predates Rick & Morty by a number of years).
would you go by the username for your games? I want to say theres a decent bit of indie devs that do but the only one that's popping in my head right now is pixel
i actually did consider that with this name. its generally used as a male petname in europe but i think people here would find it feminine sounding with the a ending

Reminds me, probably time to sell my bitcoins now. I suppose I made a decent profit out of it.
Nah, I don't want to "go by" a handle as my whole identity. I just like to be called by my real name.
I love gender neutral names, especially on female characters. I increasingly use them in my creations.
right now I want to keep my professional and online identity separate from stuff with family and possibly friends. not like they would necessarily know if i didn't tell them anyway but it doesn't hurt
Pretty fucking cool

It's legitimately disgusting, Corbyn can be asking a question about any number of policies which are actively harming millions of people and they just act like fucking children

yes, but we're all friends here. If i was that paranoid I wouldn't have my photo and various personal bits of information freely dispersed amongst you.

I'm so jealous. Saga is the most amazing series. You are in for an absolute treat. I also recommend picking up Sex Criminals and Bitch Planet. I could make more but I'll keep the fangirl ing to a minimumin other news after dining on delicious asian street fare friday night I went to the comic store and bought the first volume of Saga
I haven't read a comic in a long fucking time and I thought it would be good to read something that wasn't a textbook
