  • My dad used me as an excuse to rebuild the unfinished basement and build out the Lionel train set he’d always wanted.

    Shortly thereafter he decided he could no longer tolerate his wife and moved in with his mistress full time. He built out a room just for me, but I knew Mom would off herself if I abandoned her. Plus I was smoking by then and Dad hit me whenever I smelled like smoke.

    It was a nice train table until a pipe burst and flooded the basement. Don’t buy particle board furniture. It becomes pulp as soon as it gets slightly damp .






  • All of this is lost on me. Out of ancient habit, I keep my video streams throttled to 360p to ‘save bandwidth’ even though that hasn’t been a necessity for me for a decade or so.

    1080p60fps gives me motion sickness. I have no idea what 4k120fps would do to me, not that I have a capable monitor.


  • I feel bad because when I game watch videos on another screen while the game is muted on the other.

    Hundreds of hours and thousands of dollars wasted on voice acting and sound design. Most of the stuff I play isn’t immersive, though, more narrative driven/puzzle based.
