Fresh pickup. This has a terrible port of Donkey Kong. The game has 4 levels and it omits one of them. DK Junior was always more interesting to me. There is an end in sight for NES collecting. I have a list and I've gotten most of what I've wanted. SNES is a different story... #retrogaming #gamestr

I've been thinking about Boomer/Millennial and then Millennial/Gen Alpha interactions. I think a message to Millennials is that you are going to have to be more active in your Gen Alpha kids' lives if you want grandkids. The incentives are stacked against them.

We're all going to look really silly when the remaining Biden clones start pardoning each other.

The more I learn about Bluesky, the more I absolutely hate the platform. I remember when Bluesky was announced and there was all this talk about account portability and decentralization. Most users don't care about that, but I do. Where is it, or was that all a lie?

I got about 500 emails to get to today. I've barricaded myself in my office. I'm feeling shoegaze. Any recommendations? I'm starting with the obvious.

I rarely get sick, but when I do, it's almost always my fault. It all comes down to sleep. If I choose not to go to bed at a decent hour for a stretch, its over. I wonder how many people out there get colds and flus because they aren't getting the sleep they need.

Reminder: you can add a Christmas tree emoji (🎄) to your list of likes in Amethyst. Hold the like button on a post and then click the icon to add another emoji. Copy and paste, hit save. "We're going to have the hap-hap-happiest Christmas since Bing Crosby tap-danced with Danny fucking Kaye!"

It is funny watching people freak out about the Hunter Biden pardon. Everyone knew it was coming, why is this shocking?

I don't always jump-start cars with dead batteries, but when I do, I always talk myself through the process like I'm defusing a bomb.

That ship has sailed. Xbox is a Gamepass machine at this point. Physical gamers really need to look elsewhere.
