Art by Chris Foss for Moonbeast by A. E. van Vogt (1973 edition). Foss was apparently a bit miffed at a certain triangular ship that later appeared in Star Wars so he doubled down with a similar design for The Bloodstar Conspiracy by Stephen Goldin & E. E. Doc Smith (1978) (second image)

When I say an anime looks good I just mean the girls are cute.

There are NO freaking Christmas movies on public access TV, which is all my mom has. Maaaan I fucked up not pirating Home Alone, The Santa Clause, A Christmas Carol (the George Scott version not that stupid Jim Carrey version) or hell, even that Christmas episode of Mr Bean to play off my laptop for us.

Oh well, at least I got us a nice Christmas turkey for dinner. She shit herself when she heard how much I paid for it. I fixed some rice a roni, beans w/ chorizo, fried quesadillas, and PREMIUM orange cream sodas. She thought they were beer.

Merry Christmas etc.

>let go from my 6 figure job after only 5 months because the company is run like ass

>"""severance""" package was less than half a month's rent and not even a pleasant 'go fuck yourself'

>half my personal belongings in my office were trashed and the other half were mailed like a month later (I understand the candy and other dried snacks being trashed but did they have to trash my fucking sopranos mug?! my custom mouse pad that looked like a waffle?! my university graduation picture?!?)

>interviews going great, but Chinese/Indians keep soaking up the jobs because they'll work twice as long for a nickel a day and companies can hit their diversity quotas

>4 seizures this year, ~12(?) hospital visits, medical bills haunting me at night

It's times like these I....I....

...I thank the great good Lord I don't have kids.

In Mario Kart 8/Deluxe, the motion of each character is governed by four independent systems: -animation (which action the character is currently performing, e.g. sitting in the seat, throwing an item, posing after a stunt, etc. In older Mario Kart games, this was the only factor) -head tracking (the character's head turns to look at other drivers and items as they pass by) -facial expressions (the character's face changes to show their current mood, e.g. happy after winning or in pain after being hit) -vehicle motion counterbalance (the character subtly shifts in the seat in accordance with the vehicle's movement by bending limbs or changing posture. Hair and other freely moving character parts also fall under this system)

To demonstrate that these systems are actually completely independent of each other, it is possible to turn one of them off and see that the other ones are still being applied to the character. In the footage, Daisy's animations are turned off, leaving her stuck in a T-pose. However, she still looks around, changes expressions, and even bends her arms and legs to balance the bike's movement.
