Hello New Englander.

Yeah even having moved from there to the US South most grocery stores still have traditional checkout lanes/humans bagging your items if you so choose.

Spicy baby! Glad she got rescued

I was expecting a mirror under the bed

I appreciate you applying “males” and “females” equally, to be honest

Very Gen X of you lol

Don’t give me false hope OP

Yes actually

Fixing computers during the day + being on my own at home (games, making art, listening to music, etc.) = very happy.

It’s not just a slop/work/social media machine

Trading favors with friends/family members helps a lot with this.

My ND-ness/distaste for the chaos of the general public means I’ll happily pay for snacks, gas, etc. or bake a treat or do a chore for someone willing to shop for me 😄

Mmmm dinner

There is a fungus for everything

My cats make a specific face when they want treats, don’t even need to vocalize.

Although I have learned what it sounds like when one wants her blankets straightened out.

Baby dragonfly fart-waterskiing was not on my bingo card of things I expected to learn but here we are

Finished Creature Kitchen, which was charming and bite-sized. Loved the retro inspired graphics.

Alternating between replays of Cult of the Lamb and Chicory: A Colorful Tale. Dabbling in Cyberpunk when I’m home and feel like firing up my desktop so I can stream it since my Steam Deck doesn’t handle it locally at the levels I want it to.

Also got a gift copy of The Force Unleashed so will probably try that out this weekend too 😄

Ark is the best. It can open any type of zipped/compressed file, and it puts even 7zip to shame.

Are you a cat?

The bottle binky I can’t 😭

We’re not putting enough heads beneath a suspended blade, rather.

I want my money to be used to feed the hungry, provide housing to those in need, fund education and healthcare. I want that money to build safer roads and more greenspace, to expand public transportation and to make life better for the majority who live here.

I don’t care if my taxes feed a family who “doesn’t need it.” I just don’t want my fucking money to go to harming and killing innocent people anywhere in the world.

ETA: I’m also okay if my taxes go to helping feed/aid people in need in other countries. Just no harm.

The same few people who would treat robots/synthetic life as garbage are the same people who already treat other living, breathing human beings like garbage. lol.

The rest of us get sad when you can’t pet the dog in a video game :)

Sounds terminally online lmao

When my any of my cats greet me at the door when I come home from work.

One of them does it more frequently - she’ll either hang out in the front window or my bedroom window, see me, hop down and be at my feet when I open the door. She’ll chirp and I’ll pick her up once I put down my bags.
