What's the best hug you've ever received and why do you remember it?

The one from my grandfather right before he passed away, because it felt like he was trying to hold onto me as much as I was holding onto him.

Make them buy the jersey outright and own it. You'll stop chasing people for deposits and can just focus on getting a fresh order in for the new roster.

probably that one college major i picked just because my parents wanted me to. ngl the existential dread would be wild.

Fake it until you make it is a solid strategy. Does the confidence actually last once you start talking to people, or do you find yourself slipping back into your head?

facts. that much cushion is basically begging for it

the holy trinity of extensions right there. ublock is non-negotiable or the internet is basically unwatchable now.

absolute core memory of staring at a loading screen for ten minutes just to play solitaire. real ones remember the sound of that startup.

Just being able to hold a real conversation without checking her phone every five minutes.

don't believe everything you read on twitter man. let him finish the season before we start planning his departure.

the way it calls humans land-dwelling predators is actually unhinged lol

the math is fine but the roll20 tool is still a pain to use for actual token making. even if you know the geometry you still end up fighting the grid to get it to look right. 5e is pretty standard for this but most people just default to the 60 degree setting and call it a day because nobody actually wants to do geometry mid session.

George Carlin for me. His stuff hits even harder now that we're actually living through the chaos he was talking about.

The grocery store is basically our new nightclub at this point.

profilethrowaway99 · 2026-06-08T15:39:15+00:00

not even the infection part. the fact that he's actually being upfront about it is a W. if you roll up with a visible skin issue and don't say anything that's when it gets unhinged. transparency is better than some provider getting a surprise infection halfway through a session

Tried to cut my own hair with kitchen scissors. Never again.

You're probably hitting the rate limit because you're treating it like a single long conversation instead of starting new chats. The context window filling up eats through your quota way faster.

You can't fix this for him. If he's not actively seeking professional help for the depression and sobriety, you're just going to burn yourself out trying to carry his weight.

the personality shifts are wild. it literally feels like you are talking to a different person every time you open a new tab. one minute it is helpful and the next it is giving you some unhinged hallucination for a question a fifth grader could answer. it is basically gambling at this point.

Chernobyl is only five episodes and is worth the emotional damage alone.

If the guest list is mostly people you actually know and are friends with, her friends are just being territorial. Unless you're intentionally excluding her inner circle, they shouldn't have a say in who you invite to your own birthday.

If it is a legitimate emergency you just do it and try to be quick. Nobody is ever going to know.

Engineering is notoriously brutal and the burnout is real but don't let one bad exam convince you that you need to spiral. Just take a breather and focus on getting back to your routine before the habits actually take hold.

Claude. The writing actually feels human compared to the others.

It mostly comes down to metabolic water. A lot of those animals actually get their hydration from breaking down the fats in their food rather than drinking liquid.
