 ProcyonFlynn: !findquote silence
  LRRbot: Quote #1282: "Dogs and people may love. All other animals breed in stony silence." —Ian [2015-12-16]
 accountmadeforants: Hello
 RockPusher: *nods in agreement*
Chrysoprase: Is this a cory and cameron christmas episode?
 accountmadeforants: We've gone from the cone of silence to the stream of silence
 RockPusher:  
 neisan2112: Mood
 RockPusher: Civilisation does that to people
TheAinMAP: Or until Civ 7, at least.
 RockPusher: Cori "checked it out" 
iconsumedeath420: <message deleted>Fuck off
 Bruceski: I just picked up the new Brandon Sanderson book yesterday, haven't cracked it yet.
 accountmadeforants: Getting into audiobooks has definitely increased the number of books I consume back to normal levels.
 ProcyonFlynn: Is anything really garbage if it makes you think/engage with an experience?
 ProcyonFlynn: Even junk-food has calories - etc
 NotCainNorAbel: Andy's book is very fun
 iris_of_ether: It's sitting on my shelf, waiting
 Gekyouryuu: I've sadly lost the ability to focus long enough to read proper novels, but i can power through manga like nobody's business, so I'm reading an amount, at least
 accountmadeforants: It's quite good Bruceski, I enjoyed it a lot
 iris_of_ether: Also my Vampire queer disaster group wants me to read The Locked Tomb 😆
 TheMerricat: So joined late but intuiting that we are talking about what books we got for the season. What are Cameron and Cori's opinion on digital books vs physical books?
 Gekyouryuu: "Reading is an unusual thing that humans do, and I liked myself more when I did it." sounds like something Silas would say
 ProcyonFlynn: I've really found the joy of audiobooks this last year.  It's not the same to listen - but I've found when it's read by it's author it adds an interesting nuance to the content.  Like adjacent context?  It's good stuff.
 Marvoleath: There are studies that suggest reading relaxes brain, while other media excite it, not always positively
KeytarCat: Flow state is a hell of a thing
 Earthenone: you wouldent pin a ball
 Joecool190: Cori is a clever one

 Marvoleath: "On talking simulator the ball sucks you!", quoting  Cam's highlight
 ProcyonFlynn: "The Multi-ball Matrix" 
 Earthenone: hera tilt is clearly the greek expansion
   Anubis169: probably the internet meme?
 neisan2112: It was the billiards rougelike I think
 RockPusher: There. Are. Three. Boards!
   Anubis169: I'm so glad everything is on battery backup in this house... the wind is playing havoc with the power 
 LordZarano: Hera-ticlt Hera-tickled
 ProcyonFlynn: The accessibility for "tone down the Everything-Everywhere of it" is really good imo.
   Anubis169: LordZarano: How's it where you are?
 adept_nekomancer: That cat on the second level is definitely the leopard that is going to eat all our faces.
 Serpens77: there's so much table to this table
   Anubis169: Oh I adore the PC-98 and Megadrive blend of sounds
 LordZarano: @Anubis169 Windy
 Serpens77: 
 r10pez10: i bought this the other day and i can't stop playing it
 LordZarano: @Anubis169 Power's been fine but the internet briefly cut out earlier
 wedge_x: \look at you, pinball wizard\
   Anubis169: I'm not quotebotting that
 CaptainSpam: Ah, pinball.  The sport of kings.
   Anubis169: There were SO many
   Anubis169: in the Maverick pinball game, there was a very limited game of poker built into the LCD display and you hit targets to raise/fold
   Anubis169: yup
 r10pez10: stupid blackjack cat
 CaptainSpam: Most of the time in physical pinball design, that's why upper playfields tend to be "bonus" areas.
 jacqui_lantern234: hey chat  hope yall have been having a stellar day
 ProcyonFlynn: Over 50 hours logged, and I still don't feel like I even know half of it.
 ProcyonFlynn: Same to you Jacqui! 
 TheAwkes: I think I could really get into this. It looks about 30% too visually noisy, but I think I could develop the screen-based proprioception to make up for it.
   Anubis169: the one thing that sticks with me from Disco Elysium, and lives rent-free in my head, is 'Volumetric Shit Compressor'
 jacqui_lantern234: i got myself a magic card, a new citadel paint, and some mixing jars cause i wanted a treat and no one else is gonna do it 
bistod subscribed at Tier 1. They've subscribed for 89 months!
  LRRbot:  Thanks for subscribing, bistod! (Today's storm count: 20)
 r10pez10: yeah if all you do is focus on the pinball it does wonders
 adept_nekomancer: @Anubis169 The one thing that sticks with me is you can spend like a whole two in-game hours making skill checks to win the secret goat-themed pinball game
   Anubis169: That was a great first round Cori 
 r10pez10: go cam go!
 jacqui_lantern234: @r10pez10 its 2024, who FOCUSES on the pinball?! 
 jacqui_lantern234: go cam! i believe in you!
 adept_nekomancer: @adept_nekomancer Which is oddly on-topic for this particular stream.
 r10pez10: xenotilt when i boot it up again: "back so soon?"
Timagio: what about Your Gatekeeper?
   Anubis169: 
 r10pez10: and would you say that had an effect on you...
 r10pez10: sorry i got distracted thinking about high cheekbones
   Anubis169: noooooooo
 r10pez10: NO
   Anubis169: got the robo queen down to half HP though
 CaptainSpam: Someday LRR needs to hit up a local pinball place on the island.  I'm sure one of them has to have a streaming rig. 
 jacqui_lantern234: gosh, i wish my area had an arcade 😭
 vingris_: Happy New Year from this timezone
 CaptainSpam: I'm lucky I live somewhere with decent pinball interest.  The league I'm in has options.
 r10pez10: NO
 jacqui_lantern234: nooooo
 wedge_x: another!
   Anubis169: Unrelated, Chat, I have a bag of oaty granola/raisin slabs 
 r10pez10: it's amazing how bad draining feels
 vingris_: I regret to inform you that 2025 contains at least as much existential dread as 2024
Timagio: we go agane
   Anubis169: BALLS 
 CaptainSpam: Good ol' ball save.  One of the best innovations of the 90s.
 r10pez10: this machine is eating all my quarters
 damn_i_am_pretty: 
 jacqui_lantern234: @r10pez10 quarter?! i hardly know her!!! 
 protojman: this game makes me feel like the mid-00s in every way
 Earthenone: i remember people crowding around the machine
 r10pez10: i think if you were doing really well people would gather around to watch right
 Earthenone: i dont remember what purpose they served
Timagio: Navigator, yeah.
 CaptainSpam: Usually not; sometimes play-by-play commentators have a hard time keeping up in streamed tournaments.
Timagio: RIP
 adept_nekomancer: Very rude, machine.  Very rude.
   Anubis169: if it was a thing, the copilots were never present
 CaptainSpam: Granted, in most cases, physical pinball tables aren't nearly as complex as this.
  TStodden: Nope... but Pinball prior to like 1990's (with DMD's) were fairly simple objectives.
 jacqui_lantern234: i thought it was Lord Host 
 r10pez10: still don't know what varia is lmao
 r10pez10: other than "varia max"
 Earthenone: Hos. its still crimmus right?
Timagio: Its a powerup fro Metroid

 TheMerricat: So I was going to say the steam page is awfully light on guides, then I looked at the release date for this and realize it came out just a month ago. 
 r10pez10: music good
   Anubis169: who're the devs for this? same peeps that The Messenger?
 TheMerricat: @Anubis169  WIZNWAR
 CaptainSpam: Modern games can get pretty complicated, but for the most part, a general rule is "shoot the flashing shots", and that'll usually get you most of the way.
Timagio: @TheMerricat Wait what?! I could have sworn this was  a few years old
 r10pez10: !
QuixoticScrivener: I’m going to have Sonic Spinball nightmares.
   Anubis169: oh hey!
 Natimus_Prime: I do want to own an actual pinball table some day.  Not anything super fancy, but the physicality of the machine versus a virtual pinball makes a huge difference for me
 r10pez10: i like the turret mechanic
   Anubis169: TheMerricat: They did Demon's Tilt didn't they?
 TheMerricat: @Timagio The previous game in the 'series' - DemonTilt came out in 2019, that might be what you are thinking of.
   Anubis169: YES!!
Timagio: Ah right
 Earthenone: just a pinball or a whole machine? 
 r10pez10: bye orb
 CaptainSpam: I want to own an actual table sometime, too, but that's going to require me living in something bigger than a one-bedroom apartment. 
 r10pez10: ooh a perk
 TheMerricat: @Natimus_Prime IB4 someone points out a lot of physical pinball tables these days are just... virtual pinball in a pinball cabinet. 
   Anubis169: did anybody else habitually keep the flippers up unless the ball was near?
 TheMerricat raises hand. 
 CaptainSpam: @Anubis169 Nah, you don't want to do that.  In the raised position, the gap between them is wider.
 r10pez10: if you stand on one leg and stick your tongue out the flippers hit harder right
 r10pez10: ooh a second perk
 CaptainSpam: Hey, people do discuss their pinball stances once in a while.  Some get pretty wild. 
 TheMerricat: @CaptainSpam You don't. But for those of us not blessed with reaction speed, it's preferable to have the gap over just watching the ball slide down the flipper over and over again as you fail to hit the button in time. 
   Anubis169: 
 r10pez10: second multiball, very decadent
   Anubis169: Can't see shit, Cap'n 
 adept_nekomancer: flippity-flippity-flippity!
 TheMerricat: Can you imagine a physical table being able to do this chat? 
Timagio: 🗿
 damn_i_am_pretty: @TheMerricat one huge table
 r10pez10: booba
Timagio: Oh hey it's Warframe Lotus
   Anubis169: so THAT'S why the ricochet is so huge
 r10pez10: clutch
 r10pez10: NO
Zu_o: @TheMerricat Maybe if it was arranged in a semicircle around the player with multiple segmented fields
 r10pez10: good run though
QuixoticScrivener: wizard points?
Timagio: Skills!
 TheMerricat: Wizard points according to the guide is the multiball, the more crazy version of it.
 r10pez10: it's the years of dark souls training
 ProcyonFlynn: This is a lot more relaxing when you're just watching someone play 
 r10pez10: may we eat the meatball
kusinohki: meows
kusinohki: space cadet pinball looks a lot different than I remember...
   Anubis169: It heard you
 r10pez10: you can dim the table quite a bit
 Marvoleath: 
 r10pez10: oh yeah demon's tilt moaned a lot huh
KeytarCat: Less lewd?  Am I just making it lewd in my head??
   Anubis169: 
 CaptainSpam: Yep, that's pinball. 
   Anubis169: it's ok we got this
 damn_i_am_pretty: what am I getting?
   Anubis169: If this is normal... what on earth does colourblind mode look like? :S
 CaptainSpam: Pops, or jet bumpers, are what people usually imagine when they hear "pinball bumpers": Round things that pop the ball away when hit.  So, probably the meatballs.
   Anubis169: cat heard you
 adept_nekomancer: The lucky cat maneuver
   Anubis169: ffffffffFUN!!!
   Anubis169: this is so much FUN we're having!
 ProcyonFlynn: Yup, Neko-Dealer is rude with that slap.
 r10pez10: !clip
  LRRbot: If you see something funny or particularly noteworthy, make a Clip of it! Your clip could appear in a fortnightly video or be seen at https://www.twitch.tv/loadingreadyrun/clips (Please give your clips descriptive names if you want them to be seen!)
 Marvoleath: typical cat
Zu_o: Does this pinball machine have meta progression?
 OldUncleDan: Happy NYE all!  I'm guessing this is from the same developers as Demon Tilt.
lowpolymarioenjoyer: Xenomilf: Hostile Pinball 'Action'
   Anubis169: that's certainly a first line
misspokeycat: Pops are short for pop bumpers, which are usually the curricular things that launch your ball back when you hit them
   Anubis169: welcome on in lowpolymarioenjoyer
 TheMerricat: chat, here me out. A roguelike pinball game like this or an additional mode for games like this, where you unlock everything and it carries over to the next game till you've unlocked everything then it resets... 
 r10pez10: the sub-tables are fun
 OldUncleDan: A Xenotilt...  So my guess seems to be correct.
misspokeycat: Sometimes they're called "jets", it depends on the manufacturer
 Marvoleath: extraction shooter pinball? 
 frameshifty: happy new years! i played and beat 1000XResist over winter break because of y'all, it was great
 Serpens77: aren't ex-survivors just dead people?
 CaptainSpam: There's also the short-lived time when I think Gottlieb called them "thumper bumpers"...
 protojman: soundtrack is a vibe
misspokeycat: @captainspam oh dear I've never heard of that one
 CaptainSpam: @misspokeycat It didn't last long, and it was a long time ago, so... yeah... 
misspokeycat: much like banana flippers
 damn_i_am_pretty: imagining this is a massive pinball machine that lands on your planet and you have to play to keep your planet safe
 RandomTrivia: Hi friends! 
 OldUncleDan: @damn_i_am_pretty The Last Pinball Wizard?
 r10pez10: nevermind!
   Anubis169: HAHAHAHHA
 MrGibberish: hey friends
Timagio: 
 MrGibberish: @damn_i_am_pretty sounds liike the futurama episode with pac man and space invaders
misspokeycat: It's really nice that the modes for each tier aren't timed, that would truly be a nightmare
 damn_i_am_pretty: cmon
 r10pez10: you gotta leave one to tell the others
   Anubis169: you have spinty-one left
 r10pez10: huh, five card under
   Anubis169: eyy, 10mil+
 Dog_of_Myth: Good run
 damn_i_am_pretty: heh bigger hole
misspokeycat: I forget, did demon's tilt list all of the objectives on the right hand side?  That's a super nice thing to have
 SymphonySolstice: https://www.twitch.tv/loadingreadyrun/clip/ThankfulFreezingButterTBCheesePull-KYMOCEvJeymEcbGL
 OldUncleDan: The Last Spaceball Wizard?
 r10pez10: i think it did
 OldUncleDan: Starball Wizard.
misspokeycat: Because really the way that you learn pinball is once you actually realize there's stuff to do on all the tables more than just flailing to keep the ball alive, but it's really not always apparent what to do for a lot of tables
KeytarCat: I hope we get to see the subtables today.  Probably my favorite part of Demon's Tilt
 Marvoleath: @KeytarCat is it like subocean? 
KeytarCat: Table below the table, so...yes?
 TheMerricat: Chat this is going to sound like a naive and stupid question out of right field, but for those who catch the VODS on Youtube, do they include the commercial breaks?
 r10pez10: nah the breaks get cut
 TheMerricat: Thanks!

Timagio: f
   Anubis169: That was rigged
 CaptainSpam: A good amount of pinball is learning the flow of the table so it's easier to anticipate where the ball will go, and you're doing pretty well on that front, really.
 r10pez10: more quarters for the quarter god

 RealGamerCow: Elmo Crush!
   Anubis169: this is closely related to the condition known as 'Gamer Bladder'. Where somebody's need to go to the toilet is directly proportional to proximity to an important plot point, or unskippable cutscene.
 CaptainSpam: Still not sure what that timer's supposed to represent...
   Anubis169: CaptainSpam: time until another boss respawn
 CaptainSpam: Aha.
 OldUncleDan: And now Cori is going to declare Praxis on this Pinball Machine.

 Diabore: auto fire???
 SnackPak_:  knowledge
   Anubis169: Exit Plan: RNG for things like the airlock shot or kicker shot in T1 will have an increased chance to send you to the next tier instead of back into the current one.
 Murderface9797: sounds like cheating
 Dread_Pirate_Westley: Reading the pinball explains the pinball, I guess.
 RealGamerCow: In real life, calling the attendant resets the game but frees the ball
 RealGamerCow: if it's stuck
 CaptainSpam: In most virtual games, "Attendant" is "check if the ball is stuck, reset it if so".

   Anubis169: Heard a great line, i think it was a Jerry Springer episode waaaaaaay way back when. "Hey are those real?" "Yeah. Real expensive."
 TheMerricat: "A listing on an online auction confirms its existence, though it’s since sold. The only other hint of its validity is from an 11-year-old Reddit AMA with Rob Sheridan, the former creative director of Nine Inch Nails. “I picked up one of Trent’s guitar picks from a show on the Outside Tour which read, ‘There’s no such thing as fake tits,’” one person asked. “Can you shed any light on the origin/inside joke/etc.?”"
 r10pez10: what the sword doin
PaperDoopliss: Just vibing
 TheMerricat: "Sheridan didn’t answer this particular question at the time, however, so it remained a mystery. The question itself does provide a few important clues, though, particularly regarding the year the pick was used. The Outside Tour was headlined by David Bowie and supported by Nine Inch Nails throughout the U.S. between September 14, 1995 and October 31, 1995. A post on Nine Inch Nails’ history website"
 TheMerricat: "A post on Nine Inch Nails’ history website The NIN Hotline also includes an image of the pick, citing it as part of the tour prior, the Self Destruct Tour. The pick could have been used by Reznor himself, or potentially guitarists Robin Finck or Danny Lohner. "

 damn_i_am_pretty: the sound of silence

Timagio: @r10pez10 Yes

   Anubis169: Fayili~~ 
   Anubis169: heya
 Fayili: Hey Bis 
   Anubis169: flappy new year to ya
 Fayili: God I hope it's a better year
   Anubis169: it's just people trying to get by, i think it'll be ok
 r10pez10: a lot of maths fans are excited because the number 2025 has a bunch of cool properties
   Anubis169: yeah, for example 2025 indicates Fellowship Of The Ring is 24 years old
 RandomTrivia: https://www.twitch.tv/loadingreadyrun/clip/MotionlessFragileVultureThisIsSparta-5JJc_tZOgE8qhvTK
 Fayili: I can get that. I was pleased when my age rolled over from a prime to a power of two this year.
KeytarCat: Smash bros spike right there
 CaptainSpam: Huh, the combo meter doesn't seem to pause when the ball is being grabbed for the perks.
 iris_of_ether: Happy 32nd 
 Fayili: Thanks! 
   Anubis169: My birthday's the same as Alex's
 r10pez10: (1^3 + 2^3 + ... +9^3) = (1 + 2 + ... +9)^2 = 2025
   Anubis169: was 39 a few days ago 
 adept_nekomancer: @iris_of_ether The alternative is being an 8-year-old who is extremely well-versed in math.
 Fayili: It would be *very* impressive
 iris_of_ether: Hahahaha true~ (I wouldn't be shocked if my friends' kid reached the same conclusion)
 Fayili: But 7 is a much nicer prime than 31
Zu_o: There's so much going on, how would you ever be able to tell that the crane is on screen
 CaptainSpam: Honestly, when video games were starting to take over from pinball in arcades, pinball designers WERE trying to envision how to change their game to suit the new paradigm.
 Fayili: If I'm in a simulation I absolutely don't want to know about it
 Lord_Hosk: If Im in a simulation... Does that change anything?
 Fayili: Oh the year underflow one?
   Anubis169: All your stuff -was- there
 CaptainSpam: Well, poop.
 SquareDotCube: There's a power bar, Cori. bottom right, don't know if you noticed.
 RandomTrivia: Welp
 wedge_x: all your stuff is now everywhere

   Anubis169: 
   LoadingReadyRun: @SquareDotCube I noticed but I didn't look when I hit the button twice in a row....
 CaptainSpam: And before anyone asks, yes, there ARE people who stream pinball regularly.  Like, actual physical pinball.  There's camera rigs for it and everything.
 Fayili: God it's so weird to be current on streams (for the first time in maybe years) and not be able to skip the breaks
KeytarCat: My biggest problem with simulation theory is that it doesn't change anything.  Like, would you be a better person if you were out in the "real" world?  Would you be better if you knew you'd never be "real"?  Nothing changes from a personal experience standpoint, just some vague existential stuff that might fuck you up but not because of anything you can do about it
 Lord_Hosk: OH NO!!! I just got a email from our michigan library that our library cards have expired!  If we want new cards we will have to apply in person!
 Fayili: @KeytarCat Exactly, this is why I try not to dwell too much on existential stuff in general
   LoadingReadyRun: @Lord_Hosk back in the van
 SquareDotCube: ah okay, yeah that's a game that requires paitence where everything else you don't have that level of control
 Mai_Andra: ♫
   Anubis169: KeytarCat: The fun thing is, if it's a simulation, that means it's an imperfect system and can be screwed with on a base level as long as you figure out how the OS works.
 LordZarano: Problem is that the way software exploits are found is first make the program crash, then figure out why it crashed and how you can manipulate that
 LordZarano: I would not advise trying to crash the universe
 RandomTrivia: Just be very certain what memory values you're modifying before you touch anything
KeytarCat: @Anubis169 I mean, only if it's actually flawed.  Why would we expect anything that we can't comprehend to match our comprehension?  It would be a legendary scale of unknown, akin to a god no one can identify let alone define.
KeytarCat: There are probably two separate thoughts there that I carelessly combined
   Anubis169: because quantum dots exist, and they pretty much prove we have root on this universe 
   Anubis169: Welcome back!
 adept_nekomancer: If the universe is a simulation, someone needs to find the command console and enable the "post-scarcity" cheat.
 RockPusher: The pinball shall continue until morale improves!
 r10pez10: that's it, if you don't quit fighting i'm turning this universe around

KeytarCat: They're going to feed Elon to the cops??

 Clench_Eastwood: Ive been here so long I remember when both @Anubis169 and @Lord_Hosk werent mods 
 niccus: elon's practically camping in mar-a-lago. we're going to see the most valuable gator in history
thedepthandbreadthofseth: Kellyane Conway.
  Juliamon: Clench_Eastwood What do you mean, Hosk isn't a mod 
 Earthenone: i know one i barron, because i predicted them to be the next us monarch
 Diabore: baron, not byron, because of course
 wedge_x: Steve Bannon would do it just for fun
 adept_nekomancer: @niccus 2025's award for the MVG goes to...
 PMAvers: Defendant 1, Defendant 2, etc
 Clench_Eastwood: oh wait....he isnt is he? 
 Clench_Eastwood: I just assumed because its been so long
  Juliamon: (he was, and then he resigned)
 Lord_Hosk: @Clench_Eastwood I remember when Lord Hosk wasn't a mod too... it was yesterday
   Anubis169: My hope for 2025 is something I can't repeat on here due to Twitch's AI chat monitor flagging my account
Invitare: Trump has 21, sorry, 20, sorry I mean 18 sons. Their names are Lion, Roboute, Horus...
 TheMerricat: So I only saw this on the perhphially of my social media, since I've highly pruned a lot of stuff this year for... reasons. But did I hear correctly that Elon was caught sock puppetting in a video call when he forgot to turn on the voice changer for the 'character' he was playing to talk himself up?
 vanman229: i thought you were about to say its amazing how divorced elon has become
 Wolfstrike_NL: It's become such a weird drama how.
   Anubis169: no that's the media's job
 Wolfstrike_NL: show*
  Juliamon: TheMerricat This isn't really the place for hearsay
   Anubis169: politics' job is to decide stuff, the media's job is to make you feel a way about it
 Fayili: @Lord_Hosk Just a maker of really great smash cut to bleached white skeleton images
 iris_of_ether: Vomit vomit vomit
 shendaras: More?
 shendaras: =(
 wedge_x: I mostly wish I had the money to fund an X-Prize to reward the first person who finds the 'deorbit all' button on the Starlink system and pushes it
 Wolfstrike_NL: Aaa yea Canada, the 51th state
 adept_nekomancer: Wait, the "we pull energy out of the sky" guy?
 Clench_Eastwood: I still have pics on my facebook of hanging out with Graham and Paul at Escapist Expo 2012
 Earthenone: @TheMerricat even funnier, he got so heated he spoke too fast for the voice modulatorto keep up but yes, stoping politics
 SquareDotCube: so Robert Ford. Ugh.
thedepthandbreadthofseth: more of a wienner? _doubt_
 damn_i_am_pretty: I just decided last year to not pay attention to national politics because local things I can actually influence
   Anubis169: actually one of my hopes is that the media burns and is reformed in a way that simply reports what's going on
 damn_i_am_pretty: such a boost to my mental health
 Clench_Eastwood: I got to have a beer with Yatzhee
thedepthandbreadthofseth: I thought that was Boris Johnson.
  Juliamon: proven: politics are bad for pinball
   Anubis169: new balls please
 niccus: we're actually being taken over by different maries
 RockPusher: The most petty white elephant gift exchange 
  Juliamon: Canada looked at the Biden administration and went "yep, that looks like a good idea to mimic"
 Jillexie: Exactly, Cam.
   Anubis169: I really really want a ranked voting system
 TheAwkes: I agree with the message, but for *very* different reasons.
 Fayili: Sometimes doing mutual aid helps with the despair. Sometimes it makes it worse!
 jacqui_lantern234: look where that got him 
 OldUncleDan: The only real silver lining where I'm at is that we still have Walz as governor...
 Jillexie: Canada got rid of Jordan Peterson in 2024, so I consider that a win.
 iris_of_ether: That was so fucking stupid
 Jillexie: But Kevin O'Leary wants to negotiate with Trump!
   Anubis169: honestly though, i see 2025 with me getting out of the house and being in meatspace more.. because the internet is just to freakin' depressing now that everybody an their dog is on it
 OldUncleDan: At least, wouldn't you make the Providences and Territories as their own states?
 TheMerricat: @Anubis169 Remember when the internet was the haven of loners who didn't leave their room and spent all day on the computer? Now the real world is the haven of loners... 
 Jillexie: I kind of want the Bloc Quebecois to be the opposition party, because that would be fun dealing with any 51st state BS.
 SnackPak_: louder for the people in the back
lexiconjurer: Also, I guess the 51st state depends on who is conquered first since Trump wants to apparently invade Canada, Panama, and Greenland?
 RockPusher: We're about to see a version of that here… it's gonna be a thing…
 thegreatwyrdling: I might need a more cheerful stream than this for the new year
  Sarah_Serinde: 
lexiconjurer: The enshittification of society
 TheAwkes: I would like if our government would take action on the results of all the pilot programs and studies they commission instead of ignoring the results.
  Juliamon: lexiconjurer Oh those aren't meant to be states. They have to get in line behind Puerto Rico.
 LurkerSpine: 100 Not everything has to make money!
   Anubis169: UK is re-nationalising part of its rail services, to try and unfuck the pricing schemes privatisation did to it
 niccus: you can maximally make everyone unhappy by having US annex *only* quebec
  Juliamon: hey, we're all frustrated too, we get it
 PMAvers: Thought Unlocked
 iris_of_ether: My hope is for something unexpected to shake things up in a good direction
  Juliamon: and we're all different countries, even!
   Anubis169: all good Cam 
 Lord_Hosk: The Post office should make money... delivering mail to every box in the country, whether its 50 feet from another box of 500 Km from the next closest box.  Whats so hard about that?
KeytarCat: I was promised [literally anything] as a kid, and now I have almost nothing, and none of it from the government who is supposed to support me
  Juliamon: We'll make you an offer: you can have Dejoy. That's it, that's the offer.
   Anubis169: hoping for the best though 
lexiconjurer: Oh yeah, there's nothing to look forward to. At this point I'm just hoping for a survivable year.
 adept_nekomancer: Happy new year -- this one hasn't objectively proven itself to be total junk yet!
  Juliamon: It's a fresh clean start! (with many years' worth of baggage)
KeytarCat: New year new me!  I will be somuch worse for anyone in power
 RockPusher: Are you saying the systemic and currently in progress influences in the world don't magically stop on Jan. 1st‽ 
 Diabore: saw a good meme today that said "im not making any resolutions. i think its time for the years to get better, not me"
  Juliamon: also it's *not* the new year by every calendar, so
 TheMerricat: Chat if we accept that the post isn't meant to be a money center, can we also agree to ban those shitty bulk mail packets that the post accepts and shoves into every mailbox simply because they have to pay for their service somehow?
