Really very cool. Only a couple of hours long

You'd be shocked to hear that people purchase radios for over $100 to listen to music they don't own.

Honestly it's just a meme. We have deadly snakes and spiders but the death count each year is like single digits. They also just keep to themselves and will only attack if you're a dickhead. Crocodile and shark attacks too are rare. Kangaroos will only fight you if you walk up to one swinging.

Most fear of Australian animals comes from residents of NA but I'd rather my Aussie creatures than the NA bears, wild cats, wolves, moose (meese?) Etc.

Bowie is mine too. I've never been more affected by a celebrity death. I still get a lump in my throat when listening to his music, it was truly an art form of its own.

This is fucking horrid

Good Old Games. They sell lots of old PC games that you can't find anywhere else and since many old games can't run in modern architecture, they will usually package the games up in a way that they can run without you having to run your own emulators or virtual machines.

They also sell modern games and have their own game library software similar to Steam except unlike Steam it is DRM free.

Surely rolling my eyes and sighing is a better option.

There is nuance to rule following. If you're following blindly and never question why the rule is in place, then you're a chump. If you question the rule and conclude that it's there for a good reason and follow it, you're a champ.

Some rules are arbitrary but society expects them to be followed. Going outside the bounds of these rules can cause upset, so following them is generally the safer bet. However if there's a rule in place that prevents your happiness, and breaking it has no negative consequences, just fucking do it.

The person is looking forward to Autumn/Fall so is uninterested in August

I'm Australian and always assumed it was Australian. It seems Australian but maybe we picked it up elsewhere.. likely Britain if anywhere.

Have you played Outer Wilds and Return of the Obra Dinn? They are 2 of the best narrative puzzle games I've ever played.

Because maybe I'll be offered money to give up my username
