“Original” as in it has original ideas, or “original” as in it’s not part of an established franchise? If it’s the latter, I saw The Wild Robot in theaters. It was okay. A bit by-the-numbers, and I’m not sure everything made total sense, but it’s a kid’s movie so that was to be expected.

If the former, then, uh… Problemista? Also in theaters. I really liked that one.

I liked healing in MMOs when all I had to do was click healthbars to fill them up. Other people did all the hard work of actually fighting monsters, and I got loot!

Now MMOs want to make healers “interesting” so that more people will play them, and this means I have to contend with actual mechanics and sometimes even deal damage. Sorry, my brain does not multitask, I’m simply not cut out for this anymore. :P

My car has been on standard time for years now, so it’s currently correct.

I don’t want to look at my disgusting flesh-body and I’d rather nobody else saw it either. Rebuild me shiny and chrome, then we’ll talk about showing off.

Okay the image is messy but the snake coiling around the scales is actually a sick concept.

Is that bad? I love almond milk but I feel like it deserves its own word. :P

I told my dog I’m going to lay off sharing my food with her, because I think eating too much of whatever crap I was eating was starting to affect her health; I noticed her licking the air, which is a sign of nausea.

Universities of Wisconsin Board of Regents: predictably, all squares.

Does Discord have trivia bots? That’s my main IRC memory.

Maybe it isn’t as fun in an age of Wikipedia and highly effective search engines.

Silverstein said Hughes also violated the policy earlier in the year, when she signed an open letter protesting the Times’s coverage of transgender issues. “She and I discussed that her desire to stake out this kind of public position and join in public protests isn’t compatible with being a journalist at The Times, and we both came to the conclusion that she should resign,” he wrote in the email.

It seems having a spine isn’t compatible with being a journalist at the Times.

I would ask if I’m getting royalties from this episode, and if the answer was no I would walk out.

Diogenes bursts into Dracula’s throne room while holding a chicken.

I always get this backwards ^^;;

I count 7 at least.

to be honest, in high school i unironically typed to my crush like this because i felt shy and it felt like talking quietly… ^^;; i also really liked ellipses… and this smiling-embarrassed emoticon, which i had a tendency to use more than once per message ^^;;

It’s a space station.

It’s crazy how I can turn the illusion off or on by looking at the bottom or top of the image, respectively. Every time I move my eyes up or down there’s a “perception flip” moment.

The one with the kid in detention is Final Fantasy Tactics A2: Grimoire of the Rift. It’s the sequel (in gameplay style) to Final Fantasy Tactics Advance, but it was shortened to “A2” because it didn’t actually come out on the GBA.
