I can’t wait to see Commander Shepard, she’s gonna be bloody great!

I wonder which origin they’ll go with…

What’s he holding in his hand? What’s he doing? I’m so confused xD

Man, what a shitty dig to make about a tragedy of death that just happened.

…Maybe Ho could wait until they’re done clearing the bodies and rubble before using the incident as a platform for his opinions?

I don’t care if he and I share some agreement on cars and their overuse within our cities, that is in incredibly poor taste.

Good thing the “Feds” have zero jurisdiction in my country then. Feck em.

Ah yes, technology videos are really bad. Especially that Technology Connections guy, he’s the absolute worst.

And don’t even get me started on technology video reviews, tutorials, guides, educational materials and tech news. I only consume technology information in newspaper form. This new video thing just won’t catch on.

Well, I have no First Amendment rights, so there’s that.

If nothing else it’ll make a decent bit of filler before something better like Firefly Season 2 comes out!

You sound like a hoopy frood that knows where his towel is

Ahh, old hanging balls, gotchya xD

Yeah the medium of text can be tricky to convey meaning sometimes, I’m a pretty sarcastic person (gotta love using humour to cope with every situation, so healthy…) with a very deadpan kinda delivery on a lot of it, so I often find myself wondering if my intent came across well over text. Tricky indeed.

Anyway you’re cool, and thanks for taking the time to reply so thoughtfully :-)

Now, I’m going to go back to being drenched in a cold sweat! It seems that’s today’s COVID symptom roulette wheel choice! 💦☉_☉💦

This is such a David thing to say, ho ho, you japester!

Oh yeah, forgot about those! I enjoyed the boys and invincible a lot, I never got around to watching wheel of time, I will eventually, but I’ve heard nothing particularly good (or that it’s middling at best) so I’ve shoved it to the back of my to watch list.

American Gods, Rings of Power, Good Omens, the Expanse, Man in the high castle, the Last of us, etc etc.

It’s not always as good of a selection as other services, but it’s got a fair few gems on there and a good amount of back catalogue films and tv shows that are fab :-)

And the fact that they collect so much stuff that would otherwise not be available at all (usually because its only on some random foreign streaming service and refuses to work with netflix) is where they really shine.

That said, I immediately stopped using it when they brought adverts in to the paid subscription. I’m not paying to watch adverts, sorry, no.

Check out Ludwig on iPlayer it’s a good watch! David Mitchell in some light, witty modern day Poirot detectiveing.

Your username vintage balls reminded me of those little rubber balls we used to get at kids, I don’t see them any more (maybe they’re seen as too much of a choking hazard now?), so they feel kinda “vintage” to me now haha.

Those things could really bounce! I liked the semi translucent ones with the rainbow swirl patterns.

To be fair it’s been less than a day, one of the great things about internet messaging is how asynchronous it can be, it’s great for calming anxieties about needing to come up with a reply immediately like if you’re on the phone or something x.x

You’re right though, I don’t reply to things often enough, partly because I’m very sick with COVID at the moment but also a lot of it is my social anxiety and fear of rejection.

I get so scared of what people might say that I avoid looking at the replies, even when I initially reach out because I want to interact with people and form connections ><

It’s one of my big problems that I need to overcome, I’m still working out how to tackle it, but I do know it’s a problem, and it’s mine to solve.

Alas I can’t afford things like therapy, so I just have to stumble around trying to figure my ADHD, possibly autistic (wish I could get seen for a diagnosis…), anxious, dumb ass brain out 😅

I’m sorry in the mean time for being a bit annoying, I don’t mean to be on purpose :-)

Hello fellow Western capitalist nation citizen, it is I, a relatable friend colleague of David! David will vouch for me, what a capital guy!

So, me and the boys (David’s idea, you know what he’s like) thought it might be pretty radical to scooby over to our local air force base and take some cool photos of us doing kick flips with their buildings and infrastructure in the background.

We think it would look totally tubular and really show those capitalist pig dogs (who we outwardly claim to love otherwise the secret police present in every Western nation will disappear us and our families, something we deny, but other nations with better intelligence services who don’t lie to the great people of their glorious nation educate their populace about) what we think of their money war machine.

Oh! And then we can up post the photographs immediately to TikTok for the klout points!

What do you say, are you in, Breve? David said you’d be in.

Are you like, those old multi colour swirly rubber balls we used to get out of 20p machines as kids? Those were ill!

I thought that was the shit Chrome was doing to block adblockers and antimalware plugins, if Firefox is doing the same thing what browser do we use now? :-(

I don’t care about all the browser wars stuff, I lost interest when it was Netscape Vs IE, I just want a browser that I can configure fully myself and have it be as safe and secure as one can make it, within reason.

2019 isn’t some ancient far away time though, it’s just a few years ago. If Facebook were doing stuff like this then, think who else is still doing it.

Can I buy these as a coffee table book?

Not all the comics this artist has ever made, but just these word ones specifically, a neat little pocket anthology kinda thing.
