  • I remember back when I lived in the dorms for college and some of the horrific shit I saw and smelled is ungodly. I went to one of those “gamer” colleges and I had a pair of friends that I hated going into their room because it stank of feet, cum, and BO and it only got worse over the year. Then when I moved room the toilet was black with filth and I ended up spending >3 hours scrubbing it until me and my new roommate were comfortable even going near it, he was stuck cleaning other parts of the room in trade for me doing the toilet. I have no issue living cluttered and not living in an immaculate space, but I mean, have standards.







  • Earlier this year we had COVID rip through our unit, half of our residents got it. Since it’s a dementia unit it’s nigh impossible to quarantine people because they either will come walking out and get aggressive if you try to keep them inside, or they’ll find a way to fall. While most made it through the quarantine period, it still took its toll, we had 6 die within a few days of each other a bit after we were fully cleared on the unit, they just weren’t able to make back out on the other side. To that end, there are a fair few people that now have chronic coughs and we had RSV hit a few weeks later. The ones that died were already pretty precarious but as of now we have a new group that’s a bit more precarious and keeps getting sick.





  • I mean Hexbear darling Shaun has a 2 hour video on why the bombings were bad. The us firebombing campaign killed more civilians and destroyed more homes than the two nukes did. None of this absolves Japan of their crimes, but the US absolutely weren’t the good guys as evidenced by the post war occupation where leftists were crushed by American interest and the Korean Peninsula was split leading to a US backed genocide of Korea along with the US reinstating Japanese rule.

    The fact that it’s a rarity for it to even be discussed let some acknowledged that Japan were the bad guys by Japanese people overall reflects the conditions where no true punishment and learning occurred. The bombs did nothing but kill civilians to force an end of a war so the US could ramp up the next one.

    Similarly the us hasn’t learned or been punished for it’s own war crimes so it should still be discussed.



  • I recently finished Pacific Drive, it was pretty fun, but I feel like it could’ve probably been a bit shorter and the grind a bit less overall to make the mid game transition to the end game more.

    I picked up Sifu and that’s been fun. Kinda hits that Sekiro itch.

    I know Rimworld is getting another expansion pack though I usually have to play on a few month delay if I want my 300+ mod list to remain current. Though I will say it just sorta feels like they’re just doing an official version of the rather popular Lovecraftian mods that are out there already.

    Then I’ve been playing minecraft here and there after watching 15+ hours of a dude build amazing things with Create and almost makes me feel like I could do that until I remember dude spends hundreds of hours on it and I don’t have that kind of time anymore.
