There’s this guy named Voultar on YT. I watched his video on how to make a GBS upscaler for old game consoles and it was so happy and encouraging. He talks about soldering resistors like Bob talks about painting a mountain. One of the comments on the video calls him the Bob Ross of retro gaming and they’re correct. He makes me feel like I can acquire those parts and make my copy of Panzer Dragoon Saga look good on my TV!

I’m guessing someone else decided to check out The Studio recently, huh?

Growing up west of Orlando, there was this store in the mall that sold like glass figures and porcelain stuff. Never once did I ever see a customer in there. Multiple stores came and went but that one, there since the mall’s opening, remained. When I worked for EB Games at the same mall, we’d always pass it when we dropped off our money and my manager would say it was a front. Everyone I knew called it the Crack Store.

Story time! When I was in high school (~1998/99) a group of kids decided to start a “gang.” I went to a small Baptist school. Kids were bored. This was maybe second period. They called their gang the “Yo’s.” Saying “Yo” was pretty much the extent of their gang. By lunchtime a group of us got annoyed and decided to start a rival gang called the “No’s.” The Bloods to the Yo’s Crips. The sign you were a No was you grabbed a brown paper towel from the bathroom and wore it hanging from your back pocket.

Anyway, just before dismissal everyone was called into an assembly and given a lecture on gangs and told that anyone wearing a brown paper towel would receive a detention. I am still amused at how seriously our administration took this obviously stupid and juvenile joke.

I would suggest a slight adjustment and have them say “Well, I did that!” Since he’s always trying to compare himself to Biden, make the stickers play into that.

It’s especially jarring considering how thematically heavy the dry open is. Such a weird choice to change it on that season

Movies were on Netflix, TV shows were on Hulu. It was great.

Once Netflix started on their whole “half of all our offerings are going to be original content” is when it began to go downhill. Literally no one (aside from executives) was sitting around going “man, I can’t wait until Netflix starts making shows and movies!” They were a service. That’s all they ever needed to be.

I’ve had a lowkey obsession with this truck for a few months now. Sure, the looks aren’t for everyone. But I would get one tomorrow if I could afford it.

I have an older Kia Soul EV that I absolutely love, but could use a truck bed from time to time. I also love kei trucks (I live in Hawai’i and they’re everywhere!). Small vehicles with clever use of space is my jam. And I will never go back from an EV unless I’m absolutely forced to. This Slate truck is kinda awesome as well. Gives old 80s pickup truck vibes and I’m here for it.

Technically it’s a post of guy putting a Babylon Bee headline on someone else’s page, now screen shot to yours.
