  • I think I have a similar experience, just a few years off.I didn’t grow up with nes or snes but my parents did. Took me a while to find out that my parents used to be gamers because during childhood, gaming was basically banned. I didn’t learn until later on in life that the reason why it was banned was because it was tooooo addicting (for them lol) like my mom sold her entire snes collection and my dad just hid his sega genesis and nomad. Gaming only picked up for me when I got my first computer. After a decade of multiplayer gaming, I’m finally starting to play games that I had missed out during my childhood and let me tell you, holy shit these games are fun. Would life be any different if I had access to these consoles growing up? Probably, but either way I am sure I would still have fun.

    Whenever both of my parents retire, Im gonna setup my parents consoles ( will prob emulate snes cuz its too expensive to buy) and be like “You cant die yet mom/dad, you’re gonna have to beat all these games in your library lol”.




  • I might have a stupid answer but like what I’m thinking (I’m 100% just guessing) is that you still kinda move around ( like rolling from side to side or scratching your ass ) when you sleep. So therefore, maybe your brain is probably somewhat active - like you are doing more than just subconsiously breathing and sleeping like a dead body. Thennnnn, maybe you are stroking it or maybe its just your brain sending signals to your thingy with out you stroking it. Maybe it’s all in your head.

    However, if you’re pumping it then I am sure you would notice it and wake up. Im saying all this because I recently had a dream where I was in a fight and i literally kicked the wall next to my bed as hard as I could. IT FUCKING HURT. I aimed for his neck…


  • android user now but basically… it might be that most of us Americans try to take the path of least resistance or whatever doesn’t give us headaches. I mean like, almost everything we do (except taxes) are pretty simplified. And even for taxes, we can LITERALLY pay for services to simplify or do it for us ( like wtf, this is kinda stupid). Apple does a good job of making it an easy experience.

    1. easy to use - like an automatic car vs manual car.

    2. popular apps just work - I don’t think its a problem now but I remember when some social media apps were just broken on android vs iphone.

    3. a lot of the software looks pretty clean and fancy. Gives it a polished experience.

    4. HARD TO LEAVE - Apple products work better with other apple products. Once you leave, you basically lose out on all the purchases you’ve made over the years.

    5. Apple store support - life saver for most people

    6. Security updates more consistent.

    Hell, trying to adjust from typing with iphone keyboard to android keyboard took longer than expected.

    Also our government issues out iphones for fed employees.

    oh shit i didnt know that, I love her content just thought she only worked at NASA in the dmv area. Used to run into her videos on insta - she REALLY loves space.

    When those two astronauts were stuck in space(also fuck boeing), she provided some insides about their procedures and plans of return.



  • My memory is foggy but ive used xfce for a long while, then switched to i3gaps with void linux. stopped using linux cuz they couldn’t locate the developer or something( like we didn’t get updates for half a year 0_o)

    … I ended up forgetting how to use i3. I dont know what the community uses nowadays but my god i3 was AMAZING. It felt like a caveman that just learned how to make fire- and it was a big fucking fire.

    I reaaaaally want to use i3 again but do not want to spend the time relearning everything. Highly recommend it though.
