I think Josh Johnson has a killer bit on this, but in it, he was talking about how the news corporations and CEOs and people were horrified to learn that the people are seeing them for how they see us.

We don’t see them as human, just like how they don’t see us as human.

ooo I didn’t know that, due to my carpal tunnel and finger problems I’ve been leaning towards more controller based games and I thought PoE2 wouldn’t be like that … maybe I’ll try it in early access this holiday season.

Are these the same people that complain about cancer culture? It feels like it.

The Muppets Christmas Carol is my favourite Christmas movie.

TIL betraying your fellow man makes you a hero. /s

I’ll take hippie and grandpa. Yoga is nice and shit. Grandpa, I can just tune out. The others bother me far more than I like for some reason.

Republicans and intellectual dishonesty

I’m a dual citizen from the UK/Canada.

I feel the same way after Brexit. I felt a huge sense of dread and my coworker said to me, “we work in a high paying position and we’re men, we’re mostly going to be okay. The people that voted for Brexit have just f*cked themselves and there’s nothing we can do about it.”
