Baby Driver was the first movie I saw 3 times at the theater. Gets me hooked beginning to end.

It’s ultimately control. If you have a choice you want to make and someone can put into law that you’re not allowed to make that choice, that puts them in a position of power. It makes you feel powerless, stressed, and small. People are less likely to fight if they feel this way.

I’ll chip in. I had dropped out of college due to realizing the program wasn’t for me and had to move back in with my mom.

I had a bad habit of forgetting to lock the door, so to retaliate, she took all of my most expensive electronics and stashed them away, but claimed they were stolen (technically they were by her). This included my laptop with a full year of college work, which was mostly art that I cared a lot about.

I found out a year later from my dad that the whole family knew, but she demanded they keep it a secret. When I confronted her, she told me she had thrown it all in the garbage because at the time, I questioned if it was her that did it. Some totally backwards logic there.

I know someone who acted on Veronica Mars. I haven’t talked to them since I worked a show with them, but they’d probably respond if I reached out

Art imitates life; life imitates art. This is so on point.

I guess the market for this is people who… um… it’s for someone that… uh…

Who the fuck would buy this?

Like, is it for people who don’t know about literally any other PC handheld?

No XcQ! I checked for the XcQ!

Usually the home versions were scams, but there were better quality ones out there that would remove just a little bit of the top layer, making a smooth finish again. Although deep scratches obviously couldn’t be repaired in this case.

I only use Sync for extensions, history and bookmarks. I use an alternative pw manager for the same reason.

Steam Deck, hands down. I’d probably spend a decent amount of time just hitting backlog games.

I’ve found that unless you already know someone at a personal level, someone that thinks they don’t need help is unable to accept it. In their mind, needing help means they weren’t strong to begin with. It’s a show of humility to ask for help. Humility is often misinterpreted as weakness.

I’m a simple man and enjoy the sheer size and simplicity of the sunflower. Plus a field of them is just gorgeous.
