thats a nice aesthetic. i like it
Apparently, the original artist is Gharliera. Here's their ArtStation
I know at least duckduckgo says on their syntax page that they're aware that operator usage isn't perfect on their site. Seems to come from the fact that they pull results from multiple sources
I remember laughing at people buying horse armor when Oblivion came out, and now I'm glued to the screen watching streamers drop $300 on gacha game pulls
well at least they know the rocket works now
This is anecdotal to me, but I remember going to the mall a whole lot as a kid cuz my mom liked shopping at the stores there. Nowadays, she still shops at the same stores, but usually through their own websites. For me, when I learned how to drive and could go to the mall myself, it was probably only to go to a place like Gamestop, since the one in the mall was the closest to me. Again, online shopping, and especially being able to download games through like, Xbox Live, the eShop (and Steam, but I wasn't really into PC gaming until much more recently) was much more convenient than having to drive 20-30 minutes to the mall.
EDIT: Another thing I remembered is that a Target opened up closer to where I lived, so it just became more convenient to shop there for stuff like cheap clothes vs brand name places like H&M. They also sold stuff you couldn't buy at the mall like groceries, so it was more enticing, i guess.
Recently I went back to the mall I grew up around and it was a lot more empty. One of the really big stores that was there when I was a kid was Sears and they're gone now, and that mall had a TON of space dedicated to Sears. No one has come to lease that space. The mall has a sprawling parking lot that's mostly empty now.
I remember as a kid there were always like, crazy extravagant displays at the mall around the Holiday Season, and things like raffles where you could win a new car or something, but I don't think any of that has happened there in recent years to nearly the same scale.
I wouldn't say this mall is completely dead yet (I visited a different mall that had like, maybe 5 stores open and a lot of converted office space in it on a Saturday afternoon and that was eerie and dead while still being open to the public), but I think its on its way out.
evolution is finally catching up with science
watch youtube videos on your phone while the Netflix ads play -> Watch Netflix on your TV while the youtube ads play. Perfection
mom said its my turn on the compooter so i can play video gabes
Those people you see on LinkedIn with like 20 programming languages on their resume are really looking for a job just to pay off the debt of buying 20 computers
guy has 12 children and probably talks to none of them in any sort of meaningful way
but think of when you do get hired using that email. It's either gonna be the best job ever, or a complete shitshow, no in between.
I like the plastic lids for fermenting food in mason jars, like sauerkraut. I find the metal ones tend to become really hard to open or corrode once the ferment has been going on for a while.
the wallpaper is of a vtuber, Amelia Watson. Her fans are called Teamates
nobody is safe from late night suisei brainrot lol
they could throw a pizza party for their government clients. Less work than fixing the problem
i'll be able to charge my phone while rotmaxxing and doomscrolling. nice
"Yeah i just spent over a grand on a laptop just so I could use MS paint fully"
I like the 2x spicy one, but i've never tried the 3x spicy one before
So instead of playing bad music, I can get ASMR while I'm on hold with my bank?
Office Lady REM Kanashibari (by Me)
This would probably fit here too lol. I actually drew the glasses like, 15 minutes before posting the art so i kinda forgot they were even there
I drew the vtuber REM Kanashibari as an OL. I've been watching her a lot recently and she's really fun. She recently did an Office work ASMR stream that ended up being pretty funny and it stuck in my mind so I made this.
Holo X Break is out now!
Fight your way through endless waves of holoX's minions! Gear up with all sorts of equipment and items in this action packed beat-em-up to reach the 5 bosses of hololive's "holoX", and put a stop to their plans!
It's a pretty fun 2D beat-em-up made by the dev of HoloCure, with contributions from others in the fandom. It's the latest Steam release under holo Indie.
Proper online mode had to be delayed, so its currently single player, but there's an option to use Steam Remote Play to play with friends that way
Works fine for me on Fedora Linux with Proton Experimental
