the beep tag doesn’t stop anything from going out the door, it just startles, confuses, and shames people who legitimately purchased something but are triggering the alarm with sensors that weren’t properly deactivated by the cashier.

but nothing about shopping in person is anything less than a humiliation ritual these days.

I appreciate your appeal to reason, but I think the urges to always pluck the lowest hanging fruit, to react first and think never, are just always going to win out online.

it’s a mark of existence in buddhism, your belief is shared by many.

Im ready to die for the cause if anyone needs me

im a fucking coward nobody keyboard warrior on the internet, I’m just glad there’s heroes out there willing to fight for what is right.

I’m fine.

We’ve been looking for how we can get our boomers to give up the high paying jobs they are refusing to retire from and the real estate they have been hoarding like dragons and we finally have the answer: AI catfishing is here to save us.

Really helpful page thank you for sharing.

It was published in 2015 and it feels like it was written in 2007, I find it mostly funny but I agree it’s not be the best ambassador for the genre.

I’m going to out myself a little bit in praise of the horny games genre. I enjoy comedies, and I’ve had more laughs while playing these games than anything else I’ve watched or played in the last few years. So many horny games put you in a place to have good, light hearted fun. Being a DIK (included in the bundle) has so many great moments with Derek and Hell week especially. Being a DIK probably has the best soundtrack and needle drops in all of gaming. Hunie Pop’s dialogue is also incredibly funny. If any of this kindles your interest in the AVN genre, make sure you play Eternum.; it’s far and away the funniest game and some of the best times I’ve had by myself wearing my headphones and cackling like a madman.

AVN devs are virtuosos of game design. They are pouring their souls into making these experiences no one will ever hear about because of their sexual content, and subsisting on mainly donations.

Feeling energized, satisfied, full but not stuffed. That is what they mean. For people who have not developed healthy eating habits they may have never experienced those types of feelings after eating.

I’m am/was a fan of the cyberpunk genre 15 years ago, but reality is faster moving and more subversive now. I have to watch ads to pump my gas man. I think what you are looking for exists under a different name. The fiction that is a reaction to our current environment is stuff like solar-punk.

I wouldn’t bother with DCC it seems like a weird rec to me. Litrpg is a new kind of genre fiction slop that’s emergent because video game literacy is at an all-time high but it just amounts to scenes with characters reading menus, achievement toasts, and their stats.

sounds like you made some big progress in life

Not her fault for losing interest in you. I think it wasn’t a big deal until you got more serious with her and she had to start thinking about what having a family with you would be like and is probably internally realizing you would struggle with fatherhood. I’m not against you though. if you found a way to not have to run the society treadmill the rest of us do then I’m happy for you.
