That's honestly very cool. As long as he's not being an ass about it, I think it's neat that he's expressing himself on a daily basis and wearing what makes him happy.

Given the history of the series, I find this to be pretty endearing. I have fond memories of playing the multi-disc Baldurs Gate 1 on PC as a child. It's kinda fun to see that today's gamers will have a similar experience with the same series nearly 30 years later.

The neutral redrawing of districts in my home state of Michigan has made a transformational difference for both local and national politics. I really hope Wisconsin can do the same.

I bet it was Scenery by Ryo Fukui - this album is a classic YouTube recommendations banger.

Installing uBlock is so quick, all you need is 30 seconds of their consent to lean over their shoulder and install it. The whole process can be faster than the actual ad break, in some cases.

It's hard to buy ad-free cable TV...

It's just about my favorite activity, yeah! Though it's best when I can play it out on the piano, it's a lot like playing a rhythm game like OSU.

I am a conductor and pianist with a decent level of absolute pitch who reads sheet music to myself like this all the time, and this description captures the synesthetic experience really well!

The weirdest part in my experience is that it's easy to listen to an audiobook at the same time because the sections of the brain that process each of those things are totally separate, just how you can listen to music and study at the same time.

The Gameboy Advance startup sound never fails to activate my neurons either.
