…I feel sad. I never had a PSP. To me, the PSP feels like “That new Sony handheld”. Then I hear it was released like 25 years ago, and that can’t be true.

So I go look in the mirror, and expect to see my own young babyface. You know people are always saying I look way younger than I am. Constantly getting carded to buy alcohol…they always think I’m 15!

But as I look in the mirror, I no longer see the youthful face that would get carded. Instead the old man in the mirror looks more like my father…if my father had any balls to grow his hair out like a rockstar. But still…it has gone grey. The hairline a slight bit receeded.

This can’t be MY face! Who is this stranger? And then I remember. Years spent wasting my time in a relationship that didn’t love me. Years spent in a house filled with rats which I didn’t have the authority to exterminate. Years dealing with cancer from living in a rat infested hellhole. Somewhere in all that covid was a thing until it wasn’t.

And now, this face looks back at me, still thinking of the PSP as new, and I only have one question…

“What the hell is a Vita???”

What I’m hearing is to dig a waist size hole, and then shove your little brother in there.

Sooooooooooo…Lets say 2001 Angelina Jolie and 2001 Halle Barry walk into your room, strip naked, lay on your bed making out with each other.

You’re telling me your reaction would be indifferent/annoyed?

Like you wouldn’t immediately want to jump in???

You see that door marked “Pirate”??? Do you think a pirate lives in there???

She should put her new porces on her porch. Then amazon delivery people would be at a loss for how to do their job.

You come home, and ask why there’s a watermellon in your kids bed, and the window open.

Also, when most people hear “babysitter” they think some 16 year old girl. So instead, hire a 40 year old woman who’s looking to make ends meet. That way, after the prank is over, you’ve still helped someone.

On top of that, lets say it were real…why have we not heard of any trial? We sure hear about every little detail from Luigis court proceedings. I remember last month reading they moved which cell he’s in.

Not moving jails. Just “you’re in this cell…well now you’re going to that cell over there”. That made the news. But the guy who tried to shoot trump just vanishes? The media doesn’t mention his name after a day or two.

Then you got trump sticking his thumbs up over the secret service. You’re telling me the guy who IN HIS HEALTHIEST DAYS OF HIS YOUTH dodged a vietnam draft, but in his elderly years is fighting 10 secret servicemen to stick his bloody hand up to give a thumbs up while an active sniper is trying to shoot him???

How many attempts are you aware of where the secret service keeps the president elect on the stage during an active shooting?

He wasn’t president elect at that time. He would have been “former president, and likely (but as of the day of shooting unconfirmed) 2024 republican presidental nominee”.

The attack happened in the summer of 2024. Election in November 2024.

And I also assume that even though the shooter was “in on it”, he’ll still go to prison for the rest of his life. No way trump bails him out…literally or figuratively.

It saddens me so much to know that the president can rape children, and get away with it. On top of that, the only reason people aren’t distracted from it is the fact that gas prices are still high. If gas were cheap, there is a good chance 48% of Americans would be distracted.

Well it was also the first one where Grindr promoted it.

About 10 years ago there was an ASL search greasemonkey script as a browser extention.

Funny thing about that is, it was made by a gay guy who disabled the ability to search for women. And when people asked him about it, he said some things that I will not repeat here, but just know it was like if toxic masculenity also took on the form of abusive and hateful commentary.

Within a week somebody released an alternate version of that script with modified code that let you search for anyone. And as Fetlife is a very all inclusive site, the revised script also had options for numerous variations of trans. Basically every gender identity you can think of was included in the updated script.

Fetlife couldn’t control use of the script, but they could detect it. Which they then banned users for using it. Since that time the script no longer works. Fetlife did something behind the scenes to disable it.

“DADDY!!! DID YOU SEE MY PERFORMANCE???”

“No.”

child develops trauma of thinking his dad doesn’t love him enough to pay attention

Dad develops anger issues over not getting to see his son perform in the school play

school has a school shooting the following week, but thats 100% unrelated. Different kid. School just happens to be in America

It reminds me of Fetlife.

If you’ve never heard of Fetlife, it’s a fetish social network. At least that’s what it markets itself as. In reality, everyone on fetlife knows what it is.

It’s a fetish dating site. And also a fetish hookup site.

But the thing is, lets say I’m a male between the ages of 18 and 65. And I want to find a woman, in my city, who is single, and into monogamy…and also a whole list of fucked up fetishes. Don’t worry, these women would ALSO list these fetishes as interests so it’s consentual.

As a fetlife user you can’t do that. You can’t search by gender. You can’t filter by age. You CAN see who’s available by city, but you literally get EVERYBODY in that city. It’s more like getting a whole phone book, rather than a filtered search list.

So it just ends up being way harder to use than it should be. They claim it’s to “protect women”, but that’s bullshit. Women are not these defenseless creatures who need you to break your whole search system to shield them from the world. Also, there’s an easy fix for that. You add search opt out in your own personal settings. They already have the ability to limit who can message you, it would not be hard to add a checkbox that says “remove my profile from search”.

I’d be good with that. I just want to search women in my area, who share my interests, are single and monogamous, and want to be messaged. The system they have makes that SUUUUUUPER hard.

That was my thought process too.

“This app helps you make friends without algarhythems, or ads, or data tracking”

“Cool! How do I use it?”

“By having friends.”

“But I don’t have friends anymore! I’m over 30, and as work and responsibilities have taken over my daily life, I no longer have the time required to maintain healthy friendships. I was looking to this app to make new friends. How would I do that here?”

“By having friends”.

I can remember Hot or Not being before Friendster. I don’t know when it started, but I found it around 2000.

For anyone unaware, the idea was simple. Go to the website, and you’d be presented with a random picture. Could be male, could be female. You could adjust these settings to be more specific as to which pictures you’d get.

But basically, you’d see a picture. Then you vote. Hot? Or not? And after you vote, you can see another picture to vote on, as well as the score from the previous voted on picture.

That’s it. Thats the whole thing. No messaging. No interacting. Nothing. Just you having an account that you upload a single picture to. Then other people can randomly get the chance to vote on you, and you can also check your own score. The ONLY other thing you could do is share your URL with friends. Usually through AIM or YIM or ICQ or MSN Messanger.

I really think that concept was ahead of its time. I think it would have worked really well as an app in 2016.

I bet like 3 old people will get what this is from…and they all had an N64 in the 90s.

“Poop Gun”

Wait, so is the gun made of poop? Does it fire poop bullets?

Then the sequal:

“Oscillating doormat”

Did they at least serve chicken???

I’m so confused. Why would a microphone need you to be 6’1? How does that even relate?
