    okay, so

    I've been asleep for the past 8 hours

    the fuck happened on twitter

    The short version is:

    -Some people voiced their displeasure with the new GB hires.

    -Some members of the GB "community" began to attack the people who voiced these opinions.

    -Some people being attacked expressed displeasure for GB for not controlling their "community"

    -Ever escalating wargle-garble from numerous parties and things of have course escalated into full on death threats and I am sure boycotts in some areas etc.

    Things to note: A lot of the GB "community" stuff is originating from 4chan and reddit. GB is planning on making a statement but are still organizing it. Twitter is dumb.

    I guess Japanese twitter where you can actually express something worthwhile in 140 characters might be okay.

    Edit: Fucking hell that joke sailed right over my head.

    Ep 104:

    Tsor loses moe in battle with Low-Key and goes on a journey to find a new hammer that he dubs "leiss"

    Ep 110, Season Finale:

    Tsor is on the verge of losing his fight against Low-Key because of leiss' inherent weakness; however, he is gifted a series of visions chronicling how leiss' was forged in the animether from the spirit of his past hammer, thereby discovering that leiss is moe

    it's google's self-driving car that doesn't have a steering wheel or pedals because it does not allow for human intervention

    but it does have a large touchscreen so that you can tweet, watch netflix, and happily continue being a lazy piece of shit while it drives you through the mcdonalds

    (don't take that sentence as derogatory that's the life i want to lead)

    Eff that driving is relaxing

    Just a simple repetitive action where you can let your mind wander plus listen to music really loud without any concern that you're bothering anyone

    I can listen to music loudly anywhere without concern of bothering anyone!

    And there are better simple repetitive actions out there, like hearthstone or some crap.

    Also you can listen to your music really loud in your self driving car too.

    Hearthstone requires too much focus and thought

    Driving is just rote mechanical actions that are handled almost entirely by your dumb lizard brain once you're good at it

    Giving your smart monkey brain nothing to focus on

    It's meditative

    Personally I have never found driving meditative at all.

    Too many other cars and/or surprise grandmas on the road for that.

    Yeah, this is the thing for me. Driving can have consequences. Driving can kill someone else or me. So driving is constant scanning, constant checking, constant monitoring. It is not fun, it is work.

    A videogame with no real consequences, or a sport? Oh yeah, now that I can lose myself in, but not driving, never driving.
