I don’t understand why a god would have to be all good as humans understand goodness. I’m more open to the idea that God either set things in motion and stopped caring, or is actively ambivalent and lives to cause a ruckus on occasion for his entertainment. This view allows for the existence of preventable evil.

Material Design is quite pleasant to my eyes in both light and dark mode. I don’t like Fluent Design as much. It’s too busy with the translucency.

They really messed up when the whole squad got together for that photo op. That’s a powerful image.

I gave the first Armored Core a try and played a few missions. The movement is rather clunky coming straight from the buttery smooth Armored Core 6. However, the other systems seem pretty robust for the first game in the series.

They wouldn’t care about the hypocrisy. The Republican party generally isn’t intellectually honest, and their supporters don’t pressure them to be.

They’re going all in with the electricity theme and I love it. Mario & Luigi needs that quirky charm. Paper Jam was uninteresting because it was all generic NSMB.

I’ll share my recipe since it isn’t in the book.

Block of Smoked Tofu

Preparation: cut open the packaging with a knife, put on a plate, and eat with your hands.

Smoked tofu tastes good enough to eat it by itself, and it’s a great source of protein and fat.

It’s a matter of convenience. If you wish to ethically watch various shows then you have to either pay for many streaming services or finish some content on one, cancel, and switch to another.

His audience definitely leans that way. I don’t get the impression that he has any agenda or conviction, but he consistently reacts to content that enables the alt-right. He’s been quite candid about getting into the react meta just for the money. Even so, he does seem to have unwittingly become an alt-right entry point.

That one is interesting in its own right, although you kind of have to appreciate it for what is instead of as a sequel. The ties to Chrono Trigger are very subtle at first.

This looks good. I dare say it surpasses Alpha Dream’s last works before they went bankrupt.

It’s harder to find the good stuff on Mastodon because you have to follow individuals or novelty accounts.

Robocraft is pretty awful. The current game is in maintenance mode. The only thing the devs can make is their LEGO-like live service game, but even that is too hard for them. This year they just quit and restarted on yet another attempt of a sequel to the only thing they’ve had success with. That being said, I still enjoy spending hours in the lab and shooting apart other players’ creations.

Personally I think the contestants are forced to try way too hard. They get taught that extreme suffering is a necessary consequence of losing weight. Of course they are going to stop trying and rebound once their part in the contract is done. They don’t know how to live a lifestyle that effortlessly maintains their weight.

This one fails me whenever a clothed mannequin is in my peripheral vision.

Branded items are commonplace and are nothing more than neutral objects to some people. They may want to share something interesting without the intent to promote a specific item seen in it.

I’m not a road enthusiast but I want to point out that such large cobblestones with irregular surfaces and gaps in between may not be optimal for heavy trucks going across them at over 100 km/h.

Last year I clicked on an ad for a video game. The process was so clunky that I was better off Googling it and taking the link to its Steam page.

The Great Tree in Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door is the worst dungeon by far. The puzzles involve escorting a bunch of NPCs that can’t jump, run away from enemies, and inconsistently break away from following Mario.
