My boyfriend has this trick where he pokes a hole on the top, a hole in the bottom, and then he blows and the egg just falls out.

Never managed to pull it off, I just claw at it until it’s done.

After being burned by a dozen creators, I find it safer for my own emotional well-being to just assume all things beautiful and evocative are made by someone who is secretly a terrible person.

Saves me from the disappointment of finding out later.

I’m constantly surprised when it turns out someone famous isn’t getting up to some bad shit.

The rebuttal is:

Go no contact, if she ever asks why you don’t talk to her anymore, tell her she’s a complete monster.

One of my professors in college demanded the class turn in a video production assignment as DVDs.

… This was in 2018

I was the only one in the class who even had a DVD burner (… Because I’d used it some years prior for PS2 games piracy and it was still in my storage box)

So the class bought a spindle of DVDs and I spent an afternoon burning everyone’s assignments to DVDs.

No idea what would have happened if they didn’t have a pet ultranerd like me. Like, did teach expect 'em to go and buy a USB DVD burner just for that?

An arrow pointing up at a line. Preferably with each being a different colour.

The arrow indicates movement. The line is abstract. But with the colour coding it carries the idea of ‘putting the thing into the other thing’.

The rest is learned pattern recognition. A download is a down arrow in a circle because you are taking the thing from the other thing. So saving is an arrow to a line because you are putting the thing in the other thing.

Being gay.

Yes – And it sucks balls.

Some people in a different department of the company do work with Linux. And some get Macs.

I just call that biting the ragebait, stranger.

And now it’s playing in my head

Phuck

Latin America, South and East Asia, and the natives within America itself watching White People finally realise America are the bad guys:

Adorable little rascal.

Fanfiction.

~/Brojetos (anything relating to making stuff, writing, drawing, video creation, programming, etc., professional or personal)

~/temp (a non-hidden temp folder with a script that wipes it when the PC shuts down or reboots, used for downloads and such to prevent the “downloads folder is an abomination” problem that plagues any computer after a while of usage)

~/AppsGames (appimages, applications compiled from source and not installed to system, personal use scripts, wineprefixes, non-steam games)

aaaand ~/OtherAminals (for stuff I want to keep but have no idea where else to place)

Has she ever given a reason?

I don’t remember the last time I saw an advert.

Like, genuinely, I get politely confused when people talk about them. What do you MEAN you’re not adblocking everything? What do you MEAN you still use a service if you can’t adblock it? WHAT DO YOU MEAN you paid for YouTube?

Corporate events

Good god just send me back to the office so I can work already.

Give the CIA time.

The Warp from Warhammer is real. Every mind in the universe is linked in an invisible, non-physical way, and the ~collective vibes~ of those minds feed back into the physical world, creating a loop where everything people believe slowly becomes more ‘true’.

Well, according to one really bad video game, it’s a late 90s mac.

Depends

First see it? I must have been eeeeh six. Saw the word in Civilization: Call to Power

COMPREHEND it? 12 years old at history class.
