Obviously there are workarounds, but I suppose it provides a good justification for parents to deny their kids access to social media.

Decreased blood pressure leads to an expansion of blood vessels.

Check out the fucking heads on them lol

This has to be a photography error, or maybe the pictures were compressed horizontally? There's no way they both have enormous skulls.

Many games have launchers which can be skipped by entering a command to the launch properties in Steam. Check the games info page in ProtonDB

I'm gonna go ahead and say there's a twist. After a few mildly scary haunted houses you enter one, look around, everything seems normal, so you go to walk back to the factory, but wait, wasn't the front door right there?

You start start looking around, disoriented, and notice the factory outside is dark, and it has trees inside?

Soon enough you start backtracking through rooms you were just in and notice things have changed, but at least the door is back and it's open, so you leave, condemn the house and move onto the next one.

Next house rolls up, but its the same house. You try to click the condemn button but it's not working.

You look around the factory floor for someone to report this to, but the door which leads back to the rest of the facility has gone, and the house just sits there.

You try clicking on the approve button just to see what happens, and the house rolls away, and the next house, the same house, is back, door open, waiting for you.

Maintain eye contact.

Shit makes me so uncomfortable. Look at me all you want, that's fine. I'm going to look at that plant.

If you want to look at that plant, I'll look at you, but you can't have both.

Unless we both look at the plant. That's fine too.

You're not alone in not living up to your principles, virtually nobody can.

I once tried to vet all the products I was buying to make sure I wasn't contributing to slave labour, or deforestation, or animal exploitation, and it was exhausting.

It was good to identify brands which were absolute villains, and I still avoid them like the plague, but the amount of willpower it takes to travel to multiple stores and pick only the lesser of evils is something I'm not capable of right now.

I make gradual improvements, which is sustainable.

I am dead-set on repairing what I can, and hate spending money on new things.

My mother does wildlife rescues, birds are mostly, then goes home and cooks a roast chicken.

She knows it's hypocritical. Cognitive dissonance is weird.

Also, it's not so alienating. I attend dinners with my family, and I'll eat roast vegies, and bring a side-dish for myself. Over time a few of my friends became vegan (I didn't convince them to) and it's exciting to share recipes.

If nothing else, reduce your meat intake over time.

As with most changes people make, the more drastic, the more unlikely it is to stick.

When I became vegan I was a slut for KFC burgers, and I "failed" a few times, but I just kept reminding myself it's not good for anyone, and mustered up the will power to drive past, and eat at home instead.

I've noticed dark horror movies are much better in 4k because they normally have much better dynamic range.

Longlegs has quite a few scenes with visuals you'll miss if you're watching with a poor quality video.

Don't breathe was also fantastic in 4K.
