I'd like to play Zelda Echoes of Wisdom, but I think I got close to the end of the game and haven't done all the side quest / collectible stuff. So now I have to decide whether to just finish it and see how it ends, or go back and try to 100% it.

My indecisiveness will probably result in the secret 3rd option of putting it off and playing something else.

I guess I'll keep trying to get out of the house, despite my anxiety about that now. That way, the folks in my community will be able to say they personally know (of) at least one trans person, which will hopefully inspire them to oppose any anti-trans policies that come up.

I also want to be a role model for all the eggs out there who might otherwise be too scared to come out.

A random idiot posts random bullshit on social media -- but we gotta take it seriously because they might end up being attorney fucking general. Welcome back to the Trump era.

Can you or anyone else tell me what "blue MAGA" is?

Edit: It sounds like the term means centrist/center-right Democrats who want to uphold the status quo. How is that "MAGA" of any flavor? I thought the MAGA movement was just a bunch of Christofascists.

I don't think so.

But if it's like any other norm-breaking violation we've seen him make, he will do it anyway, there will be legal challenges, they will ultimately be fruitless, he will suffer no consequences, and everyone will go along with it.

Savor these headlines now. We probably won't see any more like them for a long time.

And so the world waits in anxious trepidation as a small cadre of disengaged but incredibly fickle voters in the sun belt and upper midwest decide the fate of humanity.

Some of the companies involved that are mentioned in the article:

  • Service providers (Comcast, Charter, Cox)
  • Entertainment (Disney, AMC, Paramount, Warner Bros. Discovery
  • Those connected to advertising (Google, Netflix, Amazon, Meta, Vizio, the NFL)
  • Home security (ADT)
 

Say I go to a restaurant and find a hair in my food. Are there any actual health risks?

Does it make a difference if I:

  • Find it in the dish, remove it, and keep eating
  • Take a bite, find it in my mouth, and remove it
  • Ingest it

This was inspired by a recent news story about a certain authoritarian butthole cosplaying as a food service worker. I did try to look it up (er, search it up?), but the top hits were lengthy meandering articles, or totally off-topic stuff like foods to prevent hair loss. So naturally I gave up and opted to consult the hive mind instead.

 

I've been donating to the news site Vox for a while now, and all their content has so far been free. I felt kinda bad about blocking the ads on their site and fast-forwarding through all the ad breaks in their podcasts. So in the spirit of actually supporting something I like, I started chipping in a few bucks a month.

But recently, they've started putting some of their articles behind a paywall. Since I was already donating, I automatically have access. But for some reason, I feel like I don't wanna pay anymore. It's not like it costs me more, but there's just something about dontating to a free site vs paying for exclusive content that doesn't feel the same. Maybe cuz I'm not a fan of paywalls in general, so I don't want to support companies that implement them.

Does that make sense? What would you do? And if you're not a fan of Vox, maybe think of some other free service/content, like videos from a streamer or a software project or something.
