Live with underlying existential dread for decades. Watch as "doing what you love" becomes "hating what you used to love because you're forced to do it so that there's enough numbers in the computer to prove that you're worthy of continued existence." Contemplate the pointlessness of it all on a daily basis. Be reminded that your feelings are invalid because "other people have it worse" every time the topic comes up. Nod listlessly as "successful" people tout their own hard work while ignoring any factor luck and privilege played, then tune out when they shift into the dissonant duet of "I succeeded because I am exceptional" and "anyone can do the same if they just work harder."

Wake up the next morning and realize there's roughly 30 more years of this, barring a massive coronary or aneurism or something.

Is it weird, as a tail end gen x/elder millennial, to really hope Lehrer was right about this one?

I don't like it, but watching the flush can save a whole lot of pain. Clogs suck.

I've noticed that other apps reload more frequently when Voyager is open, as well.

Agreed. And in gif/video heavy communities, it really bogs things down.

There's a thousand mile expanse of woods and bullshit across the northern states where you could just walk through the forests into Canada.

I've always wanted to get eaten by a moose.

It is, just checked. I'm gonna need to give it a spin before buying. Not sure if the close 3rd person camera is going to trigger my motion sickness or not. 😒

a salad is feminine while steak is masculine?

When has a 90s cartoon ever been wrong?

I have subscribed for just such an occasion.

Engage was pretty fun.

Really surprised that it tallied more than TotK. But then again I do have a tendency to leave games on pause while scrolling/choresing/nodding off on the couch because I'm old.
