Musk thinks we have an UNDERpopulation crisis?!
There are four different Mastodon accounts for We Rate Dogs.
None of them have any visible toots.
Is there no way to search even the local timeline?
I saw a toot a couple of days ago and can't figure out how to find it again.
Are there any professional #tabletop game reviewers around here?
Started in on Hardspace: Shipbreaker. It's good so far: consistent aesthetic, satisfying space physics, plenty of time to learn the controls, and a hint of a story to come.
Looking for some recs for Windows games to snap up in the #Steam sale. What do you like for:
- Games that work well with three online players (possibly co-op)
- Short RPGs
Surely they've detonated enough explosives to reveal all the genders by now.
Even more interesting -- shortening the URL seems to have done it.
Mastodon question: If I didn't shorten the URL, that YouTube link included an image of the video, spoiling the surprise. Is there a way to mark the image as "sensitive" without content warning the entire toot?
Tonight's fireworks distraction movie: Skyfire, which answers the question, "What if Jurassic Park, but volcano?"
The answer is oddly precise flaming boulders falling out of the sky.
It's a Chinese production, with Jason Isaacs (of Star Trek Discovery) as the token westerner.
Points for a scene where you're sure someone is going to have to crawl across a pipe above lava to flip a switch, but our heroes find a more reasonable solution.
According to Wikipedia -- and I am not making this up -- the director also directed this music video:
Tried the racing game Gravel on the strength of the Colorado River DLC for #RiverMonth. (We grasp at straws here.)
It's okay, but it didn't recognize my gamepad and I didn't want to drag out the wheel and pedals.
10-minute still life. #mastoart #drawing #beginner #VaguelyOminous
RRR answers the question, "What if toxic masculinity vengeance fantasy, but anticolonialist, and also whirlwind bromance, plus dance number?"
The answer is yes.
UPDATE: We are at the halfway point and this movie does not hold back on the awesome.
Of course #Violet is freaked out by fireworks, so it's time to watch an action movie to distract her. Tonight's selection: RRR. Let's settle in for three hours of beefy men jumping and high fiving each other in front of explosions in slow motion.
For #RiverMonth, I thought it might be fun to play a boat racing game. Any suggestions?
Googling for "best __ games" gets me nothing but ads.
The security guard at the local grocery seems excessively "tactical".

The gameshow host gently explains the rules to you:
Behind one door is a Hall.
Another has a Carlo.
One contains a Python.
If you pick a door, you'll get the option to choose a different door. You can repeat this as many times as you like.
Then a foot will descend & crush you.
