Such unexpected behavior from a person who was unfaithful to their spouse and who brought a cameraperson into a public bathroom. I'm shocked (/s)

I know you're mostly joking, but that might have actually been my bad. I edited to add the spoiler tag minutes after I posted the link (mostly as a joke) even though this is probably one of the most well known plot points ever. It might have still done that if the link was inside a spoiler tag though.

I didn't consider the bot when I commented, but next time I'll remember not to have the clickable link text be the spoiler. That way the bot doesn't repeat it.

Pink: "You could be a responsible person and be productive right now."

Green: "🥺"

Pink: "... or we could take a nap instead."

Green: "Yes, I'd prefer that."

There is additional context that "do the thing" in ADHD speak usually means completing the task that has been stressing you out, but that you keep putting off and feeling guilty about. Taking a nap instead, in such cases, is more about de-stressing and forgiving yourself for another day of failing to complete the task and not about being lazy. In the comic, this conversation takes place between two characters, but in reality it's usually an individual, internal process.

Edit: Additionally, I translated "floor time" as "nap", but it could be any non-stressful activity, even just laying on the floor, wide awake, and staring at the ceiling.

Wow, 18 years old. Born as a result of puppy milling, then put into a shelter after the mill was shut down. I would not expect a dog born in those circumstances to be as healthy as to live for that long. The owner obviously took very good care of them and I'm sure they lived a very happy life.

Recently, there came out a way of recompiling N64 games for PC without a decompilation and with mostly working results. It is technically possible to apply the hack patch and then recompile it for PC. I don't know if there's a way to apply HD texture packs on top of that though (edit: there seems to be in the video, but I haven't looked into how).

Also watch the video on Team APS's channel featuring Prof. They convert Yu-Gi-Oh cards into Magic cards.

It would do both with just one "groundhog year" pill. Live a year with my current wealth and use the experience of that year to plan out how to earn money when it repeats. At the same time I would use that first year to measure my health so that I could take precautions or act on all that accumulated knowledge when the year repeats. There would still be a second pill to choose, and I think I'd choose the +3 charm because I could also really use it.

But I don't think this would work how I envisioned because I misunderstood the "groundhog" pill. I think it's supposed to mean that you repeat the same day 365 times, which wouldn't work for lottery/investing. So then I agree, taking the $π million and +3 charm is probably the best.

Oh wait does "groundhogs day for a full year" mean that you complete a year then at the end you start that year over? Or is it that you repeat the same single day 365 times? Because repeating the same single day wouldn't give someone enough info to invest or win a lottery (they close sales more than a day before drawing winners). I'm not sure I could out-earn $π million in a single day even with 365 attempts and +3 charisma... unless it was some kind of criminal heist, but then it couldn't be known if I would be caught on a later date.
