    “Alexa, all lights off.”

    Now, talk to me about going up the stairs from the basement alone…

    Everyone knows that’s how the evil clown, ghost, or whatever basement demon living in your house gets you…

    Grabs your ankles ands pulls you right back down…

    Sites like that saved me thousands getting my psych degree. God bless professors like this. Also the ones who were like, “the new edition of the book you need for this semester is $500, but you can get the previous edition for $5 at this site. Here’s copies of the pages that were changed.” or “I photocopied every page you need for this semester from the book for all of you.”








  • Not shocked at all. Things have gone way downhill since I started with the platform. Time was, I’d start up a stream, a dev would come and hang out and actively chat while they worked. Occasionally they’d ask about my opinion about things that were being developed. It felt like actual, meaningful stuff… That was back when it was still Justin.tv and just a little bit after twitch.tv released. When I stopped streaming regularly a couple years ago, even getting a straight answer from a rep on simple questions was like pulling teeth. Then I’d have times where I’d get several different and conflicting responses for simple stuff like if what we were planning for an event would be kosher. Even arranging for some site coverage felt like begging the mob for a favor. “Alright, we’ll get you front page, but it’ll be at 4am, and only for an hour!”




  • It’s in the other sink. However, a small, elderly Italian woman named Nana approaches you and slaps your hand as you reach for it. She says, “It’s not ready yet! 4 more hours!”

    She offers you some olive oil and garlic aioli instead. She proceeds to feed you for 4 hours until the sauce is ready. Surprisingly, you’re still hungry. The sink sauce is delicious.
