It will be shoved into a drawer in 1-2 weeks after she realizes I can't easily pirate more games for it or pirating games for it isn't simple, free, and instantaneous. Also refuses to read or learn anything in video games and thus keeps getting "bored" of them because they require literally any effort.
CW: a bunch of bad, bad stuff
Her abused-by-abandonment dog just died 2 days ago. Was yelping in pain the last few days and I was like "something needs to be done here" before this happened. I'm so glad it seemed to have died in its sleep in its bed. But before -- the last week or so -- she just took her hearing aids out so we have to hear it suffer and she pretends, or is so vacuous that really, nothing is wrong to her.
My father and I had to go bury it while she huffs and puffs all day as a way to try to manipulate us into caring about her. Honestly surprised she didn't call into work so she could be the ultimate hypocrite because she once told someone there (she handles scheduling there somewhat) that they should still come into work after their friend committed suicide.
Where are the "Life is great" freaks? Come on out and reveal yourselves. I will destroy you. I'm forced to live in this flesh prison so you dipshits can frolic in Omelas.
New site tagline.
I'm genuinely really sorry that you're going through this but I am mostly replying to say that is a fucking raw as hell line, nice job
god damn. I sincerely hope things get better for you
Sounds like a narcissist. Reminds me of my step mom.
Pirating games on switch can be simple, free, and instantaneous if it's an old switch and you can follow a simple online guide first but that's beyond most boomers
Being “good with technology” is 90% looking things up and following instructions, and technology has only gotten easier to use over the years. The fact that so many boomers struggle with it tells me that they simply don’t want to take the time or care to do anything properly. All their talk about the laziness and entitlement of young people is projection.
knowing how to look things up and sift through the gradually-enshittifying internet for instructions is a skill in and of itself these days
every piracy forum has so many posts that are just "i followed this 9 year old youtube tutorial with single digit views, and is my console bricked?"
Sure it's a skill, but it's a skill they should have been developing for the last 20 years
