@Moon "you want personal liberties on or off?"
"on please"
"too bad"

@palecur I actually like _Weathering With You_ more than _your name_, but they're both great.

That's not a bad thing!

If you liked _your name_ or _Weathering With You_, then _Suzume_ is a good bet to give you more of that mix.

I saw _Suzume_ last night and I'm convinced that Shinkai is trying to tell a single story and just iterating on it.

Consider the horror of a web page that works when you shift-reload, but not when you reload, even after a shift-reload.

(This nightmare can be yours with an improperly written service worker.)

I thought I was doing well because I make more money than I spend.

Then I tried to buy a house.

Yeesh.

Fine. Someone hit me with a BlueSky invite and I'll see if I can get on there.

@CrushBead @Elfie @w7voa @Bad_Banner @graf that sounds like the kind of thing that should have a handy screenshot to drop in a chat.

Everybody knows the Ea-Nasir facts, only people who took anthropology classes know the interesting conjecture:

Fact: most sumerian clay tablets were not baked/fired, they were usually recycled and the clay reused.

Fact: the Ea-Nasir complaint tablets were found, baked, in the ruins of a house.

Therefore we might assume that Ea-Nasir kept his unbaked complaint tablets in his house and somebody burned his house down.

If you find yourself "reasoning" like this, you're NGMI.

It's important for you to know that not only is that guy cringe, he also has a known history of being friends with someone who is creepy.

Alice: I found a link to something called "Sneer Club" that shows how cringe this guy is.

Bob: If you find yourself fighting by checking Sneer Club for cringe, you're NGMI.
