I’m playing a relatively new game and it’s still a little buggy so whenever there’s a glitch or something the devs want you to email them about it. So my game crashed and deleted my save file and when I sent the devs an email about it I got this back:
As a designer who used to be a tester, I can absolutely confirm that this is one of the three basic responses to bugs:
“Hah, that’s AWESOME!” — translation: Usually an animation or physics bug whose results are so hilarious you wonder if it’s worth just leaving it in so everyone can see it. I hope you got that on video or something.
“Oh, this shit again.” — translation: I thought I fixed this fucker like five times already. Either somebody keeps breaking it, or I’m going to have to spend all week trying to find some deeper underlying cause of it all.
“Well, that’s terrifying.” — translation: that shouldn’t even be possible, but if it is, dear sweet zombie jesus, what other things might be going wrong behind the scenes? These are the nightmare bugs that could require fundamental reworks.
I know this is about game bugs, but this somehow happened and it seemed relevant
He is 100% morally right to do this. Not to make a funny cool video into a “topic” but how about we start talking more about how tow companies are part of a predatory system in which trivial errors are given harsh legal penalties for the sole purpose of generating money? Sometimes not even errors on your part. Your car could break down or get wrecked and you still have to pay impound fees if you can’t get back to it fast enough. Your car can get STOLEN BY CAR THIEVES and you still have to pay impound fees. You could be driving, suffer a heart attack or stroke, have to abandon your vehicle to go to the hospital and have to pay impound fees. You could park legally, get injured or mugged or lost or otherwise unable to get back to your car before the parking expires and have to pay impound fees. You could DIE while you’re out with your car and your family will have to pay impound fees.
The fees start in the hundreds and increase every day the car isn’t retrieved. This can take away someone’s only mode of transportation and cost them their entire job and ability to live. Maybe forty or fifty years ago anybody with a car could be reasonably assumed to have some savings or a friend or family who could help with this and it was just a “darn it! My poor wallet! Aw man!” situation but today it’s more often a “guess I need to beg for public donations or kill myself” situation.
My husband’s car was stolen. We reported it to the police, the insurance company gave us appropriate compensation, we went and bought a new one.
29 days after the theft, we got a phone call from a tow company. They had found the car abandoned in the side of the road a DAY after it was stolen, impounded it, and started racking up fees. They’re legally required to contact the owner within 30 days, so that’s what they were doing.
We were stumped, so we called the insurance company and asked them what we should do. They said, “Let us handle it.”
They wound up having to pay the tow company TWO THOUSAND DOLLARS.
One of my coffee shop co-workers got arrested at work once, she ended up having to spend three days in the county jail (unpaid traffic tickets leading to a suspended license; getting pulled over on a suspended license that she didn’t know had been suspended leading to being charged with a misdemeanor; failure to appear leading to a bench warrant; and this is how you end up in jail for one traffic ticket the system is abusive and targets the poor). A dipshit small-town cop was cruising around behind businesses and scanning license plates to see if he could get his quota up.
When the cops put her in the back of their car they started to call the tow company at which point my boss was like “????? Why? She’s in my parking lot? The car can stay.”
The cop was like “well, she doesn’t have a right to leave her car here so we’re going to tow it, she’s getting arrested, she has to deal with the consequences”
And thankfully (in this situation) my boss was an asshole and he was like “Look, man, I give free coffee to everyone who matters in town, the city council likes me more than they like you, the police chief knows me better than she knows you, if you bring a tow truck into my lot to take this car when I, the business owner, have not called to have a car towed and she, the car owner, has not called for a tow I’m going to go to walk into your station and file a report for grand theft auto.”
My boss ended up actually taking her keys and driving the car back to her apartment, which is good because the dipshit cop showed up at the end of my shift to hassle me about “loitering” in the back of the coffee shop where I’d just locked up and blocked me in with his cruiser asking where the other car had gone because he was going to have it towed.
We did the math on it and if our boss hadn’t prevented the tow it would have cost over $900 in impound fees for the 3 days she’d spend in jail. At that point minimum wage was $8/hr and we made *a tiny bit* more than that so basically it would have cost this girl over a hundred hours (nearly three weeks worth of work with the way our hours shook out at the coffee shop) to get her car back.
Anyway that same year the cops in that city towed a car to the city yard, opened up the hatchback, and shot a guy who had been sleeping in his car:
Also in 2009, at Approximately 3:30 a.m. Jan 30, a Sierra Madre police officer discovered a Nissan SUV within the city that had been reported stolen. The Nissan was towed back to the rear of the police station on Sierra Madre Blvd. To their surprise officers opened the hatchback of the SUV and found a man in the vehicle’s cargo area where he had allegedly been sleeping under a blanket. Why the officer(s) didn’t see the individual before the car was towed has been the subject of much speculation and supposition. 46-year-old Jason Jensen, had allegedly been living in the car that had been reported as stolen . SMPD’s Amos then shot Jensen with a single round to the upper torso. The internal investigation was completed and placed Amos is back on duty.
(the car wasn’t actually stolen, there was an ownership conflict and it had been reported stolen by a co-owner, not that sleeping in a stolen car justifies getting shot by the goddamned cops)
So, you know, fuck the police.
And look, I’m a reasonable person, I understand that sometimes someone blocks you in and needs to be towed, that’s an actual matter of public safety; I get that when someone is in an accident there has to be a place to put the car until they’re able to claim it.
But if you’re saying it costs more per day to maintain the space and insurance for a car in an impound lot than it costs for me to stay in The fucking Roosevelt then I say you’re a liar and an extortionate thief, you bloodsucking parasites.
Anyway, if you live in California call your representative about Assembly Bill 516, which would make it harder for police to tow cars.
My cat likes to keep a schedule and if I don’t go to bed on time he just… sits somewhere nearby and stares at me until I go to bed.
Tonight while doing that, he fell asleep
So instead of going to bed like he wanted me to I made him into a meme

i like how most of the premises of lps popular is sav and brook, shaming, humiliating, harassing, threatening, emotional abusing, blackmailing, just trying to make each other’s life a living hell to the point where brook physically assaults sav twice, and sav accidently lands brook in the hospital, and sav clearly admits brook could’ve put her in the hospital as well, fuck, even their parents get looped into the drama, sav’s family could possibly go bankrupt if brooks mom presses charges on them. But, the fandom went “actually sav and brook r gfs and brook a repressed lesbian and savs bi, and this entire series is just a rlly long childhood friends to enemies to lovers”
I wish I could feel that. I have such an unimaginable amount of rage towards Brooke and genuinely wish many bad things towards her. Like I've been through trauma too, but she is genuinely an awful person. She can only be kind to those around her in moderation and as soon as it's possible to gain something by harming those around her, she does. She did it to sage, and Rachel. Two of the closest people in her life, and she did it without hesitation. I want good things for almost everyone in the show except her. I genuinely want her to have to face consequences of her actions, but knowing she never will have to, It just makes me despise her even more.

In honor of the holiday
Y’all gonna just forget Nichijoint like that?
This is the only obnoxious weed joke post I’ll post all 4/20 but some of these are legitimately funny
Queued for a whole year cunts, greetings from 2019
One day apart.
i love talking animal movies where there are human villains who have a pet that is, unbeknownst to them, also a villain
in rio there’s a group of people running an exotic bird smuggling operation, and they have a parrot that’s also just on board with the concept of smuggling birds. he has a whole song about it and acts like a jail warden for the other birds… like, what a coincidence that this random bird they keep happens to be evil and actively, personally interested in how well the smuggling operation is functioning, when as far as they know it’s just a bird. in one scene it chloroforms a man
Well what the fuck now
please help me
I FUCKING HATE MY LIFE PLEASE
Hi guys! I wanted to make a little addition to this timeless post of mine!!!! :)

REMEMBER SKIP-IT FROM THE 90’S
my weapon of choice during school yard fights
DnD campaign but the only weapons are 90′s toys @riskpig
Distance weapon: those sky dancer propeller toys.
I’ll allow it.
I have but two words:
Are those a weapon or piece of armor?

It got better since I last saw it
This is so weird bc being born in 1997 I saw all these toys… old, dirty, and faded by the sun
it’s so weird to think of them as new and current toys rather than the relics of a bygone age

for those who feel uneasy but don’t remember, that feeling is correct
to the hoe from 1997 who said they only remember this stuff being old and dirty, i’m from 1987 and I only remember this stuff as old and dirty too. Part of me wonders if this shit *came* old and dirty
