Never leave money in PayPal.

I wouldn't even still have this account if it wasn't required by some I do business with, but the sentiment remains. Leave nothing in a PayPal account.

Next blog, I think it’s time to revisit a post from earlier this year about Discord. This is the original from February 16. www.whatdidmarksay.com/whatdidmarks...

What you define as misspeaking, I define as him telling the truth.
NEWS — At TribFest, Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) appears to misspeak, calling himself a “lifelong Republican,” and declines to commit to being the “51st Democrat” if Democrats win the majority.

“Let’s revisit after the midterms, and let’s see what happens if I happen to be 51.”

It’s not lost on me the irony of a company that has suffered massive data breaches says “We’re safe now! Give us your ID!”

It was Mega Man. A little robot in blue tighty whities.

Yeah, it doesn’t make sense to me either.
What's your "origin" video game?

Most gamers have a lot of favorite games, sure, but there's always one that basically 𝘥𝘦𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘦𝘴 you.

I'm talking about the game that flipped that little switch in your brain and made into a life-long gamer.

So, which game is 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧𝙨?

Not that I was planning it, mind you. I haven’t had Disney+ since around the time they started the Marvel miniseries. I dropped it after Moon Knight finished.

This past week, I’ve paid more attention to Ed Sheeran than I have in my life. The entirety of that attention has nothing to do with his music. It’s enjoying watching him get ratioed by countless people.

Last Wednesday was the annual Apple event revealing a bunch of new devices coming out. So let's go through them and see which one of them actually interests me. No, it's not the Duo.

Sony continues punching themselves harder in the groin, and it's just fascinating to watch.

Today has been spent playing an outstanding Mega Man X fan game. It’s entirely free and on Linux as well as MacOS. Highly recommended.

Wouldn’t it be smarter to bribe them before the election?

You know they realize how bad it’s gonna be when they are straight up offering money for your vote.

All caught up. Next blog post, we'll dive into what was unveiled at the Apple event today. Not to mention the only device they showed that I may get.

No, it's not the Duo.

“Mark, it’s strawberry hibiscus! Can you taste the flavor?”

“Clearly these are two flavors that don’t belong together.”

I tried sparkling water today. It was like drinking Alka-Seltzer. I expected more for $4 a can. Hard pass.
