Emulation on a pc is so so so easy. You could get a handheld and have access to everything made for 40 years with practically the snap of a finger.

Get a Steam Deck, or any of the other PC handhelds out there.

I accidentally purchased the OLED switch right before getting my steam deck. I never touch the thing.

I personally used the same washing machine from the time I was 13 until I was 36.

Been through some dryers though, and the old washer gave out a few years ago. I probably could have repaired it but I couldn’t find the time.

Their golden age was long gone.

They might have had another if the US hadn’t pushed them around.

I should have figured the Rick and Morty episode was a reference to something.

Makes me think about South Park and watching it as it aired when I was a kid. There were so many things I missed because I hadn’t seen any of the source material for a lot of the jokes.

Watching it all again 25 years later and damn, even better the second time around when you’ve seen all the shit they’re parodying.

That just screams that folks don’t actually read the Bible.

Well, that, or 7 year olds just took context and ran with it.

Oh no I stand by the comment. It’s still a batshit insane post.

For me, that would be some very cold food by the time I got to eat it.

I always put my phone on my steering wheel and watch tv. I’m a stay at home dad, my kids know all about my day haha.

Well now I feel like an idiot.

I’ve never ate there. Always assumed.

You know, I love what you guys are trying to do here. I love seeing the pictures you guys post when progress is made and I agree with you that the world would be better with more walkable places that are beautiful and green.

This post though? It is pointless and it makes you all look batshit insane.

“Oh no, someone used a drive thru. Stupid car brain! Use ur legs moron!”

Meanwhile I’m sitting here 45 miles from the nearest Walmart haha. Out here in rural hell I’d have to camp out overnight to finish my journey to get food.

I know, I know. I should take my talentless, unskilled ass to a city and leave everyone I know and love behind so I can walk from my cardboard box to McDonald’s.

Maybe I’m just in a bad mood. I usually like the posts here. This one just rubs me the wrong way.

There was a lady who came in my store regularly. You could tell she put a lot of work into herself. I mean, it had to take her hours to get ready every morning.

She always seemed so sad. Not rude or anything, just depressed or something.

It took me more than a month to work up the courage to say it, but one day I got the guts and I said, “Hey, I’ve been wanting to say this to you but I know how men can be and I’ve stopped myself a hundred times. I’m not hitting on you, I’m married. I just have to tell you that you are one of the most beautiful people I have ever seen in my life and I just love the way you dress and do your makeup. You’re always a pleasant sight.”

I never seen that woman with a sad look on her face again.

Had another customer, very old lady. Very hateful. Always in a rush but doing everything so slow. One of the meanest looking people I’ve ever known. I didn’t see her smile for years. She was probably about 85 years old.

One day I said to her, “You know, you’re one of my absolute favorite customers. I’m always happy to see you coming.”

She looked up at me with that mean face and flashed a short smile. I had never seen her smile before that. She didn’t say anything, just smiled.

Every time she came in after that she’d be her usual mean looking self, but she’d always smile at me and then go right back to grumbling.

 

Brand new furniture becomes trash in months. Gotta mop up streaks when she decides to hide behind the couch and not drink her water. Get woke up in the middle of the night when fatty decides she didn’t eat enough.

I could sit here and type for a hundred years and not even come close to airing out my frustration. :p

God help me.

Hehe (lemmy.world)
 

Hehe

 

So, my child (nearly 3 years old) is music crazy. As odd as this may be (maybe not), her four favorite things in this world are The Beatles, Nirvana, The Rolling Stones, and Michael Jackson.

It occurred to me that she doesn’t have any experience with religious iconography, but she loves the Heart Shaped Box video.

So I thought, for fun, let’s show her a picture of a cross and ask her what it is.

“NIRVANA! It’s Nirvana!” (Forvana actually).

I’ve been laughing my ass off.

I have raised multiple children from two generations now and none of them have had the burden of religion. Thank…god? :p

 

Everyone has been stopping to admire this. I figured I’d share it with you guys.

 

Look back through my posts to see her sleeping like this since she was a fresh baby.

Thank abowt it!

 

I have found myself using my Steam Deck for everything. I sit at that old desk and play Counter-Strike when I’ve got time. I use it for paperwork as well.

Truly an amazing machine.
