Repost from Thejasongarner:
The recognition that despite all the stress I’m feeling “I don’t actually have a gun to my head” is a gateway to mindfulness. It invites a deeper questioning of our experience:
What am I actually feeling?
Where does that feeling live?
Who is feeling it?
Breathe …

Someone on quora asked:
There is a quote I’m fond of from Star Trek: The Next Generation, when Data (an android) loses at a game despite having what he thought was a flawless strategy. Picard tells him “It is possible to commit no mistakes and still lose. That is not a weakness. That is life.”
Fundamentally, life isn’t fair. Just because you put in all the work doesn’t mean you are guaranteed to get what you want. It may improve your chances, but chances are just that - chances. Sometimes other people simply work harder than you. Or maybe they have more advantages. Or maybe you got unlucky and the judges were having a bad day. There are a million other factors that could have affected the outcome other than how hard you worked.
But don’t be discouraged! Hard work is still important, much more so than talent. Because hard work and practice and muscle memory will push you past unfamiliar situations that talent cannot. And hard work overall contributes to improving your chances.
Want to improve your chances even more? There’s two things:
- Learn from your mistakes. Figure out where you went wrong last time, and apply that to succeeding attempts. This increases the chance that life will go your way next time!
- Make more attempts. Try and try until you succeed. The laws of probability state that flipping a coin once only has a 50% chance of coming up heads, but flipping a coin twice gives you a 75% chance of heads, flipping three times ups the odds to 87.5%. The more attempts you make, the greater your odds of getting there. Combined with learning from your mistakes, this is the easiest path to success.

One boy dead. Another boy missing.
Friends Joshua Laxamana and Julius Santiago Sebastian were last seen over two weeks ago when they went on a trip to Baguio to take part in a DOTA tournament. None of them would make it back. (continued in thread)

Please RT if you know a woman who plays DnD, tabletop games, or video games in general. Also RT if you ARE that woman! I’m so sick of this mentality. https://twitter.com/i_sayeth/status/1033015172799979520

Earlier I was out walking and a tiny kitten no bigger than my foot started following me around. It would run ahead of me a little bit, darting between my legs and sometimes over my feet (almost made me trip one time), then crouch down a bit until I was past him again. This w…
This went on for a bit until we ran across a slightly larger puppy that sort of gave the kitten a death glare. I walked past, but the kitten didn’t follow. I looked back a few meters later and the two were still locked in their death stare.

I’m not happy with the color palette on the pc screenshot, I prefer something closer to the top two images. Then again, I don’t really do graphics mods on pc, so what do I know? (I usually only have mods for custom weapons, armors, quests and so on)

The upcoming Spider-man game looks fun, but I kind of want to see one which includes a slice-of-life Peter Parker mode where you have to worry about taking photographs for the bugle, making rent, running out of web fluid, making sure aunt may doesnt find out and so on

There’s the rare occasion where I could use a third monitor, but it doesn’t happen often enough to justify the additional expense. I’m hoping in the future, hardware advances allow us to cheaply create additional displays (say, projected on a wall) on demand

Posted on r/tipofmyjoystick: [Famicom][Unknown year] Side scrolling RPG-ish metroidvania
Platform(s): Famicom (probably no NES version)
Genre: RPG/Platformer/Metroidvania
Estimated year of release: Famicom era, so sometime 1986-1990 maybe
Graphics/art style: Side-scrolling 2d graphics. The environment was all in, uh, I want to say “blocks” (like a mario game I guess?), with the main character being like 1.5-2 blocks high.
Notable characters: The main (and only) character was I think some kind of bluish knight kind of person with a sword.
Notable gameplay mechanics:
Other details: A friend and I played it back in the Famicom days, we had to study katakana/hiragana to figure out how to advance. It was some sort of primitive metroidvania-style 2d platformer with exploratory elements. This is all I have to go on unfortunately. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Amazing, this was it! I last posted this a couple of years ago and no one was able to identify it! Thanks a bunch!
But why is the video posted in English? The Wikipedia page doesn’t list an English release for the game and I definitely remember only playing it in Japanese. Or is there a romhack translation?

If you can’t rest because you have: (full todo list, backlog of projects, desire to accomplish more, self/life/world aspects you want to change), you will never rest. These lists are infinite. So you must learn to rest peacefully beside an infinite mountain of potential work.

Repost from yashar:
This is so cool. Steven Tyler surprising a street musician who was singing “I Don’t Want To Miss A Thing.”
The guy looks like he’s in shock the whole time…especially at the end.
