Remember when #Google used to have a motto of Don't Be Evil?

Pepperidge Farms remembers.

Let me see if I have this right…

Global pandemic where it’s spread from close contact- state and city governments say they can’t curfew people.
Heavily armed (mostly white) protesters angrily demanding an end to the pandemic safety measures- no curfews and the police presence is subdued and respectful.

Peaceful protests against racism and “extra-judicial” murders- we have enforced curfews and police brutalizing the protesters.

Do I have that right?

If I'm going by DS9, it appears that the Bell Riots have arrived 4 years ahead of schedule.

And here I thought that episode was heavy handed. Turns out, not really.

We got our PlayTable! It was a 3.5 year wait but we finally have an awesome digital board game system!

Well, if any of you want to see me in pain for your amusement, check me out playing Joust ... with a hot twist.

Been messing around working on a twitch stream show about classic arcade games. Still in the "can I get this to work" level.

And the diagnostic tools they had me download to test the drive locks up no matter what.

Seagate hard drives are the WORST! What the hell happened to them?

What's going on for my corona-vacation.

Ugh... I knew it was just a matter of time but I saw that an alt-right troll that I detest has started a mastodon account over on dickshow.social. I know they are fleeing Gab for places like the fediverse. Time to do a pre-emptive blocking of that entire domain.

I assume people here on Mastodon want their personal data safe from Facebook and Google. If you do, try out the Brave browser. It locks that data DOWN and has a great built-in ad block that can pay YOU.
Use my link to try it out and it helps me a little!

If they’re going to make movies based on video games, why not try it with Ghosts ‘n’ Goblins? That could work.

Rewatching the original V miniseries from 1983. God damn, is it the same shit we're going through right now! Daniel is the very model of the entitled alt-right incel. #WeHaventLearnedAThing

Finally got my #Tesla back. It has been out of commission for just over 4 months. The blame on the delay falls 50/50 on the insurance company and body shop. It took #Progressive EIGHT WEEKS just to determine whether my car was totaled! Of course, the full blame is on the uninsured idiot who ran the red light and hit me. The car rentals sucked up all the free cash we had but, for now, we’re just happy to have the car back. And with the v10 software, it’s like a whole new #Model3

Frozen and Defying Gravity are the same song from the view of the protagonist in the story.

welp..... Looks like like I'm selling my huge #Dilbert coffee table book. I had heard #ScottAdams was a big Trumper but, after using the latest shooting to plug his app, I checked out the comment section on his strips. UGH. When did this happen? Goodbye.

Ever wonder what my horror show is like? Here's our first episode of Season 8 back in May... Why it's only now being posted is because I have no spare time anymore.
