Heaven as a persistent idea in modern society is just a cope that rich people feed poor people through religion. It’s a structure for us to accept our miserable earthly existence in anticipation of future wealth so that the rich can enjoy all of the trappings of heaven on earth.

It’s just metaphysical trickle down economics.

I’m sad there isn’t a heaven for them to be excluded from.

My only quibble would be to swap “pay” for “invest” which captures both the dynamic of up front expense and expected savings from ending recurring subscription fees. That’s how I look at it. Every penny I put into my own digital sovereignty is an investment that will yield returns both financial and otherwise.

I don’t even care if this is true, I just fucking love cats.

Especially for a floof like that. Sake is gorgeous by the way.

Ahoy there matey.

My cats scratched up our living room tv pretty bad trying to catch the birds and squirrels from cat videos, but they are so fucking cute and I needed an excuse for a new TV anyway.

Bangarang!!!

I feel so validated.

I bought 7 Days to Die about a week ago and put it on my Steamdeck right before a transcontinental flight, and since I started it on that flight, I haven’t played much of anything else.

I don’t know why but it’s kind of perfect for me right now, right between Ark and Project Zomboid and I feel like I have a lot of control over the pace of the game. Its nice.

In think ‘shrewd’ is probably the word, even if using it ironically.

I had the identical reaction. Thanks OP for posting this repellent screenshot. So glad I changed my defaults.

I see what you’re seeing but it doesn’t look to me like it’s actually supporting the weight, it looks like the weight is being supported more under the deck itself.

The graphics still impress me. It’s like the effects in Jurassic Park in that, while the overall tech has improved by leaps and bounds, the execution is so good that it still dazzles.

Same and same.

Two of mine have the pouch and are both otherwise pretty trim. We like to say it ‘sways majestically’ as they walk or trot.

Highly relevant when topically adjacent to woodworking.

If I could, I would too.

I hate to say this, but it’s almost better at Fallout than Fallout.

I’ve played all the Fallout games, my wife has played none of them. We are both enjoying it quite a bit so far, at least two episodes in.
