Nail clippers. Got them originally to help with a bad habit of cuticle picking, but I’ve learned they’re weirdly useful. They can cut things in a pinch and no security check gives a shit about them unlike a pocket knife.

You mean CE doesnt stand for “clear everything”? And here I thought more letters meant more clearing.

This article perfectly sums up the issues with this way of writing. Unfortunately people often don’t acknowledge the nuance there, and will jump down this reviewer’s throat for the take I imagine.

It’s icing on the cake that apparently there was even an in-lore term for something like a trans character of this species that they didn’t use. That makes it seem like they didn’t even study their own lore well enough. Never what you want to be thinking about a writing team. 🫤

Programmers in shambles

One per email is all you get!

My god they’re hideous!

There’s a sort of… Sheen, to a lot AI images. Obviously you can prompt this away if you know what you’re doing, but its developing a bit of a look to my eye when people don’t do that.

Can’t wait to see the third act where alucard gets stun locked by gold Medusa heads in the clocktower

Well of course I know him, he’s me (not anymore thankfully, but I have had to write that kind of copy before)

I can’t speak for OP, but personally it makes my bullshit detector kick into high gear any time a corporate channel talks in a casual, friendly tone like that. It comes across as very insincere and infantalizing to me.

Now I need to find a let’s play for this…

What is this animation from?

You would think! 😅

You’re not wrong, but I’d still encourage everyone to celebrate the small victories. If we wait for perfection it may never come.

Places using “gluten-friendly” to mean “gluten-free”. I am gluten-UNfriendly. I do not want gluten. They’ve tried to be cute and actually managed to make the term mean the opposite of what it’s supposed to.

What kind of dog is that?

I’ll show my ignorance here, too, because I thought crystal was a similar flavor. That’s actually why I said southern style.

Noted, thanks! What do I call that style then? I thought it was southern style.

My invented dish I call “Scrumpy”. You take fries or fried potatoes, equal amount lettuce broken up like for a salad, chicken, then top it with chicken or beef gravy and chopped green onions. To really take up the indulgence level you can add southern hot sauce like Frank’s, and some Cajun seasoning.

It started because of my great love of poutine, and wondering how I could make it into a healthier full meal. I’ve done a million variations on it, too. Stir fried cabbage and onion instead of lettuce. Corned beef instead of chicken. Adding a fried egg on top… Very flexible weeknight meal.

I would absolutely serve this to someone if it ever came up, but it never has.
