    I've also had a spammer call me from my own number. Odd one, but I think it still counts.

    Got sucked back into Red Dead Redemption 2 again. Played most of the story years back on PS4 but didn't finish, just finished the story on PC this weekend with ~95 hours. It's crazy how many side-quests and side-activites you can waste time doing and still feel like you've only scratched the surface. I had thought all the quirky events happening all over the map happened to everyone, but there were a ton from my PS4 playthrough that I didn't come across on PC, and vice versa. And man, that ending hits like a truck, and while the epilogue was not at all what I was expecting it felt like the perfect send-off.

    I haven't tried online yet, though I hear it's a bore. What I'm really excited for and just recently seems to be playable is RDR1 and RDR Undead Nightmare on a 360 emulator. Anyone have any experience with those?

    On one hand I think losing Roiland's personal "improvisational tone" is going to be a pretty big drag on the show, but on the other Harmon still nailed Community after losing and adding new cast members, plus being removed himself for a season. I was honestly hoping they'd just drop the characters and call it "The Smiths" or something though.

    I definitely don't think we're alone, and don't mind letting myself fall into some of the evidence like the footage the US military has confirmed real.

    I also enjoy reading leaks and whistleblowers but more like a sci-fi than actual news, like a mental exercise in what types of things could be true. I really enjoyed reading through the recent 4chan "whistleblower", the same way I would an episode of X-Files or Star Trek.

    Does the government know a lot more than they're telling us? Maybe, and maybe we'll find out, maybe it'll even be in my lifetime, I'll keep up my hopes but I'm definitely not going to hold my breath.

    Maybe it's different for everyone, but my total karma never really mattered. It was always the list of top comments and posts I was proud of, and tildes seems to offer the same.

    I liked that about /r/all. Once you filtered a few hundred political, anime, and meme subreddits, you had a glimpse of what was going on in so many spaces. Communities you weren't aware of, or haven't thought about in years has something big happen and you get to be apart of it.
