Youtube recommendations, let's beat the algorithm
My impression has always been such things are an issue of "whose space is this?". Who's the one deciding where stuff goes at a moment's notice, who's the one most familiar with all the different objects inside, who's making instant decisions on where stuff needs to go or how stuff gets re-organized when space gets tight? I know where all the tools inside my toolbox are, but just because you also have a toolbox that you know the ins and outs of wouldn't suddenly make you an expert at finding whatever it is you're looking for inside mine, especially if a lot of its contents are different and unfamiliar compared to what's in yours. Faster compared to someone who's never seen the inside of one and familiar with any of it though, sure. ...But it wouldn't surprise me if some other factors also figure in, like men's mental visualization and pattern-finding skills being better suited for certain things and women's being better for others.

https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2026/04/scotus-voting-rights-section-two-ruling-history-worst-century.html Democrats need to get control of the Senate this upcoming election so badly. I haven't looked into how realistic it is, but Trump cannot be allowed to appoint another one of these jackasses if one retires or bites it. Even as a replacement for one of the conservative judges.

Random video game news... video random news game
They will, in good time - when the required hardware and software stop being easily usable and there's no-one left (publishers/developers with intent to continue to sell OR independent third parties willing to put their free time into fixing things) to support those games for anything newer, same as it has always been. Everything will die or disappear that way eventually, and some that nobody much cares about already has. But letting a publisher arbitrarily decide the when and where because of the way they've deliberately engineered their games to fail and be unusable? Well, it'd be in line with nobody owning their music, movies, or television anymore and how some things released only on streaming services can permanently disappear from them just for tax write-off or royalty avoidance purposes, I suppose...except for all the dread pirates ripping and distributing them as local files that anyone can own and do what they want with, of course.

What are you Playing Now? Volume XIX: The New Beginning of the End of the Middle
Huntress, mainly because she was one of the initially unlocked killers. I have a 70% kill rate over my first 50 games, which doesn't seem too shabby. Her hatchets are such an effective pallet/vaulting punishment that is very difficult for survivors to cope with if you can get their timing and the aiming down, it seems. I've played a little bit of The Nurse and The Dredge as well, but I'm still learning them, they seem much more difficult to get the hang of.

What are you Playing Now? Volume XIX: The New Beginning of the End of the Middle
I got drawn into playing Dead by Daylight by some friends, which is a 1v4 asymmetrical PVP game. Unfortunately, I seem to be a lot better at murdering people (the 1 killer) than I am at living (the 4 survivors), which doesn't really jive with the spirit of co-op with your friends... Whoops.

Anime and Manga - New Season
That's right. I've only heard a little bit, because they've been shielding me from spoilers knowing that I started reading it, but there has seemed to be a general attitude of "haha, the media-illiterate Chainsaw Man fans don't like it but iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii sure do". Imagine someone making the smuggest face in the entire world to punctuate that statement, because that's basically what I've seen over the past week every time the subject of Chainsaw Man has come up. I'm genuinely very curious as to how I'll feel about it, especially given everything that happened at the end of part 1. big spoilers for manga, don't read if you've only seen the show

Anime and Manga - New Season
The person who made me watch the Chainsaw Man show and movie says they've been perfectly happy with part 2. I've now finished part 1, I guess I'll be seeing with whom I agree in the coming week or two.
