Yeah PE classes in college are such bullshit

Are you really going to wait another semester because of a face to face class tho
That's like $1Ok
well, i also can't drive, public transport isn't running, and the only person who will be able to drive me happens to be immunosuppressed
turns out she's accommodating, so i'll be able to take hikes asynchronously

this makes the verb happy

e-mailing one of my professors who doesn't seem to have any plans for asynchronicity if she'd be willing to offer me some sort of alternative where i don't actually have to show up, and if she says no i'll be dropping the course
What class is it
hiking

it fulfills a physical activity requirement that all degrees here have to meet, and it's basically the only course of this kind that wouldn't make me want to kill myself

i could theoretically just take whatever hikes she wants me to on my own time, record them with my phone's GPS, and get credit that way, but there's a chance that she won't be rational about it

in any case, if she fucks me on this, i'll be fucked out of graduation and i'll have to wait one more semester

not something i would urge you to implement or anything, but i still think it would be neat if our "likes received" page could be sorted

it would be cool if we could look back at our most liked posts over the years without having to sift through each page manually

Jeez, that's such an arbitrary post to get banned for considering every other Zero Suit fanart that gets posted has similar discussion. Did someone shit on that particular mod's pancakes that morning?
no, mods love shit

A new retro game shop opened up, so I was able to pick up some more N64:

Army Men: Sarge's Heroes 2
BattleTanx: Global Assault
ECW Hardcore Revolution
Madden Football 64
NBA In The Zone '98
NBA Live 2000
Triple Play 2000
WCW Backstage Assault

Nothing spectacular, but I do have every single Madden on the system now, so... There's that. They also had Resident Evil 2, Starcraft, and WWF No Mercy on display, but they were asking a bit too much for those, and I was already going way over budget. Had I bought No Mercy, I would have every single wrestling game for the system. Looking back, I kinda wish I had just bought it, but whatever. Maybe it'll still be there the next time I visit.

161/297 (54%)

Also bought a whole bunch of 8 and 16-bit shovelware with nothing "good" to speak of, with the exception of Mega Man X, which I'm currently playing right now.

I officially own over half the official NES library at this point, which is pretty exciting, but I still have a ton of important gaps to fill.

When was "trap" ever supposed to be derogatory?
it was originally just a dumb star wars reference until it started being used to describe transwomen or crossdressers who were presumed to be actively attempting to deceive heterosexual men, when in reality, they're just minding their own business while dressing the way they please—they're not trying to "trap" anyone

i'm sure there are men who go to public places dressed as women with the sole intent of tricking hetero guys into sleeping with them, and you would probably be justified in calling them traps, especially if that's how they identify themselves

but the word does have transphobic history, and you could argue that its use tends to lump you into a group of people that the enlightened (or just humorless) folk among us would consider undesirable

They never put it on PlayStation, which was my console of choice around the height of this game's popularity.

Today, I don't have a machine that could run it (story of my life).

A couple N64 pick-ups: Flying Dragon and Vigilante 8: 2nd Offense. The latter is a sequel to Vigilante 8, which I don't own, and the former is a fighting game with RPG elements, which actually sounds very interesting.

2nd Offense happens to be more valuable than the first game anyway. It seems I have a knack for always finding the top dollar sequels of series that I haven't found the first installment of. Same deal with Turok and Castlevania.

Not Banjo-Tooie, though. One of these days...

even if my brain/hands could process melee, i don't even have a machine that i think could run it

otherwise i definitely would
Depends. What specs are your PC? I think to emulate Melee you only need a good CPU, and even then you can run it on lower resolution if it’s not up to the job.
don't know my specs but i can't run terraria lmao

Anybody play Melee? Slippi.gg has replaced standard Melee Netplay and the rollback netcode is actually pretty fun, even on wifi with a bad connection (previously it would look like a slide show). If anybody wants to try friendlies sometime hit me up

thinking about not going to school this semester, for obvious reasons
decided i'm gonna stick it out

skipping sounds nice, but all my classes will be online anyway, and it would be a huge setback

Not going to lie, Rust reminded me of Verbatim a bit, at least back when he was more volatile. I'm just going to assume that current Verbatim is the same one from old Bungie. He seems simmered down a bit.

What do you guys think about not thinking of the president as a king who will or even has the power to fix your problems
perfectly rational

what they do have the power to do is fuck shit up, which is why it's still important to vote for someone who will do the least damage
