ok recycle I think I can help you out here.
Here's what we'll do. You install a program called "Steam." It holds all your video games. You're gonna play a game called "Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind." It costs around 15 bucks. I'm sorry, but you'll have to foot this bill.
You'll play through the campaign and most side quests and read all in game books (were looking at 150 hours to 200 hours of playtime). You'll roleplay pretty hard, and by that I mean if your character is nice and helpful, you won't be joining the assassins guild in the same playthrough. That just wouldn't make any sense, see. When you're finished, you report back, and I suspect most of your problems will be solved.

part of the skate group im in wishes to skate today, but no one with a key has answered the call to open the doors so far. can you open them for us?
also could you please see to that every one on this planet destroys their weapons (without hurting anybody).
that´d be super great also and make skating much more fun. thx in advance!!

ok epic I think I can help you out here.
Here's what we'll do. You install a program called "Steam." It holds all your video games. You're gonna play a game called "PC Building Simulator." It on sale at this very moment for 5
bucks. I'm sorry, but you'll have to foot this bill.
You'll assemble the PC of your dreams, as long as your dreams are centered around building a PC before 2021 which is around when PC Building Simulator 2 came out and it stopped updating. I suspect most of your problems will be solved.

ok ijon I think I can help you out here.
Here's what we'll do. You install a program called "Steam." It holds all your video games. You're gonna play a game called "Tony Hawk Pro Skater 1 + 2." It costs around 40 bucks. I'm sorry, but you'll have to foot this bill.
I bet it will go on sale tomorrow, because Tony Hawk 3 + 4 is expected to be announced tomorrow, and sometimes they put on a little sale with an announcement. In this game you will have unlimited access to a skate park, and no one will own any weapons.

thanks mo'. It used to be negative 24k usd but I paid down a lot living pretty frugally the last couple years. I will also get some inheritance from my grandparent's estate when it sells (grandma passed away at 98 in jan). I'll be in decent shape... well decent enough that I can invest a bit, and take my first vacation in 10 years while still working.
darius advice: Watch the On Cinema At The Cinema Oscar Special! I haven't yet, but I bought my ticket and will watch tonight or tomorrow.
recycle advice: respect the 8-ball. Watch the seinfeld episode "The Reverse Peephole" in which Puddy proudly displays his 8 ball jacket.
You got a question? You ask the 8 ball.

Over the last 3 years I've been working on my masters thesis, which is a study of a curious analog of convergent evolution, only in this case, on one hand you have continental drift of tectonic plates, and on the other hand, biological evolution. before I reveal my mountains of research, data and arguments to the wider population, can you give me a brief synopsis based on this picture ie. does the theory hold merit at first glance and so on? Thank you.

the picture created a continental drift... in my pants.
I think your thesis is solid though. For more tailored help though, if I ever get a large tract of land at some point I'll make a space where you can park your van (or upgraded trailer as you level up) with free water and power and a bathroom.

Awesome show great job was way tighter quality of fun/humor/entertainment per minute. On cinema (and decker I guess) are kinda a lot of filler like an understandably decadent now older person (given the decadent culture) with a deserving entourage since his old content was so unique/funy/cutting edge, but now just basically hanging around with a camera, all impromptu with no tight scripted comedy, kinda like how newer autechre/aphex albums.

It's hard to pick which one I like more, Awesome Show or On Cinema. They're just entirely different. Awesome show's rapid pace and rapid editing certainly benefitted from the presence of Eric Wareheim. You can see it in behind the scenes/blooper stuff. Eric's direction is the source of much of it's "dementia." Tim was always, always funnier on the screen though.
I think most (though not ALL) do their best compositional work in their 20s, and Awesome show is definitely dudes in their 20s... It just can't be repeated. What we have now is a more mature work, a total slow burn over nearly 15 years. There's a reason Larry David with Curb and Tim with On Cinema are doing this "write a detailed skeleton of a plot and improv around it" style--- it's because it takes years of practice to pull it off at this level. While people may display a more raw compositional creativity in their 20s, a refined, enduring improvisational work like On Cinema requires a lot more direct experience to execute.
I disagree with your points on it being decadent or populated with his entourage. On Cinema is a character study, and it grew oranically with characters being brought in for very specific moments. Almost all of them are working, auditioned actors. Every single bit of humor in the show is character based. Tim and Greg just find a way to keep bringing these roles back, and they have moments within moments, a full On Cinema Meta. He works all these characters into these gigantic live Oscar specials. They're about as much his entourage as I'd imagine Libehart and Quall are from Awesome show. He HAS an entourage (or just his friends is maybe more fair) in his political podcast, but I don't listen to that at all.

On it being decadent, well it's made on a razor's edge of not being funded at all. Dropped by adult swim and basically crowd funded now, by their own accounts it's making just enough to keep the lights on. It's self indulgent comedy to be sure, but so was Awesome Show, and so is most of the best shit ever made. On Cinema is definitely constructed to make something cool rather than something profitable or showy. It's probably too slow and dry for 90% of people-- Awesome show truly had more broad appeal.
Overall I'd PROBABLY pick On Cinema as my favorite, given how enduring it is. When it's on I look forward to it immensely every week, and the Oscar special is a highlight of my year.

You have to be a super hard core troll (and a genius, which basically means the same thing) to get on stage and just show your butthole to everyone.
LAZY_TITLE How did they even do that, like did they have to make sure there were no children in the audience, with all the pedo paranoia, or it was just "medical" so acceptable. Or maybe the audience was mostly people like Miss Doughnut and her son was "oh, he's a boy" who ate the lazagna on christmas so didn't really matter. I like how they incorporated all the "mandatory" covid cringe by calling it mandatory attendance tour.
And the "trial of tim heidecker" is hilarious in concept, like making a self troll of a real looking trial about yourself lol, but it wasnt that funny watching the whole thing, but trials aren't supposed to be funny I guess.
What was the name of that earlier low budget seeming earlier thing that was on-cinema ish, like one episode tim had to choose a date and he chose the large black male instead of the female, and at the end the female was just by herself texting on the phone.
i didn't think tom goes to the mayer was that funny.
wrong cops was decent, not like i made any movie myself or anything.
a lot of vic berger stuff is great (tims entourage I guess) like the whole trump memeplex of playing airhorns and damaged warped tape recorder music as his theme song or those disturbing childrens tv shows compilation etc.

russell it will be ok! You and I both know, you can only control what you can control. The rest you deal with as you have to.
I don't actually know what physically ails you (and not asking out of respect for privacy!) but if you have stretches where you're entertained enough to forget about it for a bit, you embrace those.
I'm only offering nerd advice (best advice) here you so will be no different.
You're pick, you're "help" is this prescription: the movie Labyrinth from 1986, with Jennifer Connelley and David Bowie. No one can feel bad in the presence of William the Worm.

Sphagett may be my favorite "skit" all around. Top 3 anyway.

I think w m ws posts are very readable (unlike epic’s), and written with an inherent good humor (also unlike epic’s). Though he’s often off topic to the original post, his point is pretty basic: Society is set up in such a way that humans progress through a machine designed to keep everyone at the bare minimum. Humans are cattle. Some select few get to live like pigs. This is based on his own experience and, so far, is overall pretty standard, quasi-marxist stuff.
Where he deviates a bit, is the EXTENT to which he believes he’s being kept down. Like, an update to a music software program, to him, is explicitly designed to keep him in a box which he cannot escape from, as opposed to simply “a desire for maximum profit margins”. Taco Bell doesn’t have his sauce packets? We’re looking at the globalist agenda in action, a man with intermittent POSSIBLE sauce packet rewards is a man who keeps coming to the trough, as BF Skinner proved through experiments with dogs. Also I’m not sure he eats Taco Bell even though he used to post about it, I think he’s gone vegetarian in solidarity with the fellow animals.
I agree with some of his ideas, but I suspect probably disagree with any solution he would propose. For me, as long as I can make and experience art, as long as I can come to place like xltronic and make a post like this, I’m free enough. Once basic biological (and for some, procreational) needs are met, there’s just not much to life beyond entertaining yourself.
