Yep. “We want more people to watch Shorts” -> A/B test cramming more into the home screen -> “More people watched Shorts with X change, roll it out to everyone” -> “What’s the next idea to get more people to watch Shorts?”
Someone gets the idea that more views on Shorts is what they need and start optimizing for it. On and on until another metric becomes more important and they optimize for that.

Gil and Marlon, respectively.

Used to get a decent amount of stuff from Target. Some grocery items were actually cheaper than the big chain grocery. Stopped immediately at the start of the boycott, already adjusted and have had no trouble not going back. Their parking lot looks a lot emptier when we drive past

Did you use the hole as the bowl? Where did you inhale from, the charger port? Or do you just shove most of the phone into your mouth and hope for the best?

I want to smoke through my computer.

Absolutely brother!

Luck of the Fryrish is about a human connection that becomes more meaningful after Fry disappears. Yance honors his brother’s memory and Philip becomes the first person on Mars, possibly because of the influence of Fry’s memory. It’s a story of triumph and victory, although also sad.

Game of Tones is a victorious story too.

Jurassic Bark takes a look at Fry in a low point of his life and the joy that Seymour gives him. The reward for that joy is tragedy. Seymour is left on his own, waiting for Fry. Retcon be damned, the story contained in that episode is devastating. There’s no reunion, no understanding of old relationships that enrich them, just a long slow sad end.

I see Ghost Ship Games on there, are they working on another Deep Rock in a different genre? Didn’t try the survivor one, would love to see them branch out in that universe more though

Does a bear shit in the Pope’s hat?

I love this idea!
The translation isn’t as direct as the lines in the image imply though. “Watashi wa” becoming “I” hides that “wa” is a grammatical marker for the topic, kind of, of the sentence. More complete it’s like, “I, as the topic of this sentence”. You end up with a direct in place translation of “I, as the topic, a hotel’s across the street, as a location, a shop, as a setting, exists, saw a suit, to which, wearing as a desire, is true”

I realized this morning that for how much Luigi is praised there haven’t been attempts to follow his example.
I don’t know why that felt relevant on this post and I’m definitely not advocating anything, just an observation

Clearly written by a non-pineapple eater, can’t fathom that they just gave us pineapple eaters inspiration

“false flag”, “predictive programming”

Bad news about Target: they’ve cancelled their DEI initiatives to cater to the administration

That mantis shrimp familiar is badass.

Do familiars count as dependents?

What’s your impression of loops so far?
I’ve been underwhelmed, but I don’t know if that’s a platform issue or an adoption issue. Found a couple good accounts to follow, but I really want a block option to keep some accounts out of my “for you”

I only eat Koom Valley brand granola bars
