I watched a bunch of old twilight zone as a kid. I never watched new versions, because critics always had a lot negative to say about them, and I personally only sorta enjoyed the classics. They did stick with me, the classic ones, even when kid-me didn't like them. They're influential.

Honestly, if I was starting now, I'd just find a list of best episodes and watch those first, and if you are super into them, then you know you'll probably enjoy the less notable ones. You can watch them out of order. The most famous ones are good to watch just to understand the many modern references to them.

I follow some streamers who mostly play indies. That's been my intro to most of the games I've played the last few years. It's tough because a multi player family game like you described probably needs to hit a different audience than the standard gaming spaces, even indie oriented ones.

I can see the slur, so maybe it's lemmy.world

A City Hall spokesperson said Rosenberg did not contact the mayor directly. “Time will tell how sincere of an apology it is,” Mamdani said on Wednesday.

Yeah, though I have a guess what time will reveal.

Rosenberg has a history of incendiary remarks. He referred to tennis legend Venus Williams as an “animal” and once referred to the U.S. Women’s Olympic soccer team as “juiced-up dykes.” He also mocked singer Kylie Minogue’s breast cancer diagnosis.

Time didn't stop him from making this new remark. And, hey, when reading that archived article linked in the original post:

He has also called female soccer players "juiced-up dykes," claimed "faggots play tennis," and said Palestinians were "stinking animals."

Hm! Yeah, going to need a lot of time to believe that he means it.

I've seen some stories where vampires suck blood through their teeth, back when I read more vampire fiction, but I don't know how common those are. I think it seems a bit comedic, so it probably depended on how funny the story was supposed to be.

My parents still have an 80 year old christmas cactus. I should see how it's doing next time I visit.

Do you have a metric of what would count as an obscure indie game? Like, number of reviews or something? Or is the rule just to avoid the big ones like Stardew Valley?

I've played Tchia, Coral Island, and My Time at Sandrock recently, and they feel like middle of the road as far as indies go. MTaS and Coral Island both had successful kickstarters. Would they count?

Sorry, this kind of thing is difficult for me to judge.

I read a blog post years ago by a trans dude about how seeing how little the winner of a smallest penis contest gave a shit helped him not give a shit about his own dick situation.

so, i guess it's nice for insecure people to see stuff like this?

Reading around, it seems like if you keep it within recommended dosages and have no existing kidney problems, it's all good. The main thing is to make sure whatever supplement you're actually taking is reporting the amount of creatine correctly.

Supplements aren't regulated well.

I do think it'd be interesting to do a real study on it. Keto can reduce seizures, and after study it might turn out the same mechanism of action that helps there helps with schizophrenia symptoms. I hope there's a more extensive study being planned out there.

It's a treatment for people who don't respond to medicine.

It's pretty interesting! I listened to a medical history podcast about keto years ago.

https://maximumfun.org/transcripts/sawbones/transcript-sawbones-ketogenic-diet Apparently the diet started as a treatment for epilepsy. Way back in history people noticed that if you were inclined to have seizures and were starving, you had fewer seizures. In the early 1900s there were experiments to figure out how to reduce seizures without, you know, starving them to death. keto!

I wouldn't be shocked if keto had some kind of effect on the brain that helps with schizophrenia, but there's no real info yet.
