This is the first time I've seen Hobbes as a plushy.

This is the reference. It's a dotgov.

So true! I actually developed that ad specifically for user 781J233HH1 on our database, personally! And what, he just uses his "free will" and "freedom" to "block" my perfectly constructed ad?! Yeah, right!! Not on my watch, buddy!

I thought it was pretty obvious that my initial comment was referring to pescatarianism. I'm pescatarian myself; it's good for longevity. Then you responded with an Arch meme---hilarious btw---; I thought you had misunderstood my initial comment on purpose to undermine my comment on pescatarianism, which would make sense considering you showed a screenshot wherein "pescatarianism" is one of your filtered keywords.

I then responded with an exaggerated expression of dismay.

No need to be concerned for my well-being at this time, though I do appreciate the sentiment! I'm writing this right after waking up from a good night's sleep, for the record.

but... it's good for longevity...

It's unfortunate, really, but there's only 1 good answer: vote with your wallet.

Research before buying and be thorough. There are companies that don't do this yet and you could build your own peripherals, there's some nice DIY kits out there.

Just don't buy this crap. IMO the only way this'll change is if it hurts them where they feel it.

 

I found out about her after her feature on Denzel. I'd heard some of her songs before randomly but never got curious enough to look her up until her verse on HOT ONE.

Her music sounds a bit samey IMO, but her talent is undeniable; she's got flow, lyrics, and charisma. Also... She's newgen, no denying that.

I strongly dislike the majority of mainstream fem rappers out right now (Cardi B, Megan, Sexxy Red) but I think Tia has some gems.

Thoughts?

Give No Fuck

I think this meme is really funny...

Amiya Aranha (static.wikia.nocookie.net)
 

I recently came across Amiya Aranha.

She's an indie Retro VTuber, previously of Tsunderia's 3rd Gen. She's also an incredibly talented singer.

Here's one of my favourite covers by her: If I Ain't Got You.

She's super dorky, like SUPER dorky, and absolutely adorable. I guess she's relatively large for an indie at almost 20k subs on YT... But I still feel she's underrated lol.

Check her out!!

Dumb fun!

TikTok has been repeatedly and forcefully shoving GTA gameplay-attached clips of the movie Tag (2018), directed by Jeff Tomsic, down my throat. Perhaps my watching of this modern masterpiece is symptomatic of my as of now undiagnosed Stockholm syndrome, and a direct consequence of an easily influenceable mind. Regardless of my personal psychological shortcomings, this movie is surprisingly good.

I came in with VERY LOW expectations, but turns out it's just dumb fun. Ed Helms, Jon Hamm, Jake Johnson, and Hannibal Buress (hunk alert, wee-oo) all delivered good performances if you close your eyes, plug your ears, and pretend you're watching another movie, that is. Jeremy Renner and Isla Fischer, however, did actually pull off some pretty nice scenes. They didn't overplay the slow-motion shots, and I think they were pretty humorous. The action was well-choreographed and creative.

After the movie was over, I started immediately scouring the internet for self-hypnosis techniques in order to forget the incredibly odd Rashida Jones love-triangle arc. I was unsuccessful, but I believe I can keep on living through the sure-to-come recurring nightmares of bad, senseless plot lines.

The main plot, on the other hand, was decent. Nothing too special, but it's a whimsical concept! Really, isn't that what movies are all about?! ^(No.)^ Regardless, knowing it was based on a true story made it way more fun for me than it otherwise would've been, and the constant suspicion of basically anything Jerry did was very funny, IMHO.

At the end of the day, I think a relatively short movie that makes me laugh and occasionally flashes some cool visuals is worth watching.

What do you think?

Regardless of whether the Dim Read Post option is turned on or off, Read Posts are being Dimmed for me.

Has anyone else had this issue? I'd like to see if I'm the only one before I post an issue on GitHub.

I'm way late to the party, but just found out about Marathon, by Bungie.

Marathon, by Bungie

I don't really play FPS games, but the trailer looks awesome!

What do you guys think?


Also, do you reckon it'll be F2P? I saw a video on YT that suggested that.

Much love,
gon

Perhaps, Yeat? (s.yimg.com)

I know Yeat is extremely popular, but I've always thought he was vaguely on the same level as some other artists such as Playboi Carti and Lil Uzi Vert, whom I tend to strongly dislike.

Perhaps, the GOAT?

I'm a huge Kendrick Lamar and Tyler, The Creator fan. That's usually my vibe.

TikTok has been shoving Yeat's music in my face for about 2 weeks now and I finally caved and decided to give his stuff a real chance. This guy is fucking amazing! I listened to Up 2 Më and really liked it, as well as some singles and remixes.

I mean, this goes insanely hard!!!

Do you guys like his stuff? What are your favourite tracks/projects?

Also, what other artists do you recommend that are similar to Yeat?

Pretty good!

Ovrkast. hits us with some nice delivery every time, it's clear this dude really knows his way around a beat. His voice is very interesting too, he puts tons of emotion in every word, and I love it!

The lyrics are nice too, he talks about his insecurities as an artist, his confidence, his goals and ambitions, his life and his art. He's passionate about music, and he says it with his chest. It's inspiring really, it feels great.

The beats are pretty good too, some nice samples... But they're a bit flat, and the drums are just fine. Nothing to write home about really, but they do their job I suppose. The focus is the vocals, so it's not a big issue.

Overall, it's a nice EP. It doesn't have the depth I would like, it's rather short too, even for an EP, so it feels more like a sample of what ovrkast. could do than a full-fledged project. There's some really good stuff in here, but also some very mediocre stuff. Still, I'll be looking out for what he does next.

What do you think?
