I don't say this to be derogatory, but his speech patterns remind me of the special needs students from middle school. Significantly moreso after his first term; he could speak fairly coherently throughout his first term AFAIK.

He is very clearly mentally unwell, and it's terrifying that he is in any way able to gain this level of power. I wouldnt put elder abuse out of the question, he just seems to say things and repeat things that get good reactions from the people around him.

"It does exactly what you tell it to do."

I honestly think the original Japanese is better, the tone of voice for this scene is just so much more unhinged than the dub (couldn't find a clip of the subbed version sadly)

It's more like he's the little brother with an unplugged controller. Then mom makes you let him play (hes voted into power) and he fucks up your save file.

Dudes fuckin'.

There's a difference between "villainous bulldog" and "association with them may get you shot in parts of america" (Appalachia IIRC)

Genuine question; how do you prevent freezing pipes in cold climates with instahot taps? AFAIK There's only so much insulation can do about that (although what i know is pretty little when it comes to plumbing/insulation)

My reaction was more or less "straight from boy to H-cups? Ouch"

Payed some stuff off that's been looming over me for a while, feels good. Got myself some stuff I've been wanting/needing too (little bit of furniture, a new jacket that blocks the wind better).

I'm familiar. Give The Trial a listen, it's a very repetitive sound, with multiple exaggerated theatrical verses that each can get stuck in your head. I had a very long week with that song, i have it thoroughly memorized now.

I've found links to second-parts for Oglaf don't quite work right sometimes, never knew why

I dont hear bits of music on reapeat every day all the time

I almost want to say I'd miss this. But I think I'd rather not be spacing out humming "pink floyd - The Trial" and actually doing something

Hehe shonk

I have a little crow plush from makeship on top of my tower (he has a little backpack for his shinies) ☺️

Treating a basic human need as an investment is, and has always been, abhorrent. It has royally fucked over economics as a whole by making people's retirement funds dependent on housing costs going up infinitely.
