It’s a shame Google is going downhill so quickly because I still adore Pixel phones and their image quality/shutter speed/simplicity (they just come pre-loaded with Google bullshit). Does anyone have a suggestion for a worthy successor? I’d like one as close to stock Android as possible while actually rivaling Pixel cameras.

I remember getting talked into trying a Samsung S21 Ultra briefly (we’re out of Pixels right now, but the camera, bro, I swear, bro, best on the market, bro, you won’t be disappointed, bro) and that had one of the most unsatisfactory cameras I’ve ever dealt with, which was a bigger turn-off than it weighing more than a cinderblock and coming with an roaring Metropolis of bloatware. I couldn’t even snap a clear picture of my child if she was moving. It was like snapping blurry photos of a small cryptid.

I see Pixel hate occasionally, but I’ve been using them since the Pixel 3 and they’ve been like a snappy little pocket companion. Never felt more comfortable with a phone in my life, and each one feels just like the last but with improvements. Especially with the right launcher. I don’t want to move on from them, but my faith in Google has quickly evaporated.

My poop told me to stop eating Fiber 1 bars for a while, and it was right. I haven’t shit a cow patty in two days now.

I tried for years to enjoy the Beatles, but I never really felt the same magic that others do. I certainly respect what they accomplished, but I find most of their music is just weird and whimsical.

My nostalgia for the little things in nature are honestly one of the most meaningful things in my life, and often something as simple as the sound of leaves quietly rattling across the ground on a damp autumn night evokes a deeply spiritual feeling.

Weird that you pass through so much of Ohio and don’t find any peepee or poopoo within.

The Rizzler is the smaller brother here. He’s in the videos with the other two. I got a good laugh out of that little chubby kid being called the goddamn Rizzler, but other than that I had my fill of them after one or two videos.

That explains all the bots.

These guys’ mistake was investing their skill points into coal mining. You’re not getting rare jewels in there, no matter how much you tell yourself you might find a diamond. They don’t spawn in coal mines. You’re guaranteeing a permanent and progressive debuff (Black Lung) for maybe some quartz, pyrite and dolomite. Vendor trash.

I would kill to just crack away at a mine all day, extracting obscenely large and oddly pre-faceted jewels from the earth.

DEADLY ANOMALIES, DANGEROUS MUTANTS, ANARCHISTS AND BANDITS. NONE OF THEM WILL STOP DUTY ON ITS TRIUMPHANT MARCH TOWARD SAVING THE PLANET.

Honestly, I always need a Snickers. God damn.

They’re not great, but they’re available.

The self checkout is a perfectly viable option, so long as Walmart can find the strength inside themselves to open 3-6 manned tills on a Sunday for folks with large carts or children. Nothing is more demoralizing than getting up to the checkouts after a huge shop and finding there isn’t a single till open whatsoever. Throw in a four-year-old who wants to help scan every item and you’re ready to burn the store down by the time you leave.

My cousin and I used to watch fairy/leprechaun/wee-folk cameras in Ireland. Never saw shit. Starting to think there weren’t any.

Lambda lambda lambda and…?

Omego-Muuuuuu…

I only enjoy multi-player with my wife. Our Valheim settlement and world progression is something beautiful to behold. Even vanilla WoW for me is solo or bust. I just don’t like people or Discord culture.

He’s pretty closed-minded about aliens as well for a man who has wrapped his head around the scale of our universe.

We thank you, oh Monolith, for revealing the cunning plans of your enemies to us! May your light shine down on the souls of the brave soldiers who gave their lives in service to your will! Onward warriors of the Monolith, avenge your fallen brothers, blessed as they are in their eternal union with the Monolith!

He’s probably still alive and being tortured somewhere.
