PSA: If you, like me, were concerned about the FNCS Kicks (from viewing FNCS on Twitch for 30m) never appearing, try following these steps, which worked for me:

  1. I closed my game—just for good measure.

  2. I went to my Settings on EpicGames.com

  3. I went to “Linked Accounts,” where Twitch was listed.

  4. I chose to “Unlink” my Twitch account from my Epic account, which explicitly warned that I would lose access to Twitch-related rewards.

  5. I linked Twitch to my Epic account once again.

  6. I checked my Twitch account’s ”Drops & Rewards” again for good measure. The Champion’s Chargers FNCS Kicks were indeed still listed as a claimed item.

  7. When I reopened Fortnite I was notified that I now had the FCNS Kicks.

Christopher Meloni appreciation post: This was from when NYPD was pepper spraying young women at Occupy Wall St: “Christopher Meloni is Tony Bologna in The Vigilogna” (The Daily Show)

I posted this in the comments of the recent “>!Appreciation post for that gay clerk at the Flamingo Hotel”!< post. Thought I’d see if anyone agreed it was deserving of its own post.

It is better to watch the bit within the context of The Daily Show episodes coverage of Occupy Wall Street, so please watch the whole episode if you are willing and able!

Does anyone have a foolproof way to identify if your HomePods’ popping is a permanent state requiring replacement of the device(s)?

I don’t know when/if I can afford to buy replacements for my OG stereo HomePods, but the popping—especially during TV/films viewing, is really driving me up the aspiring-audiophile walls. No clue what the possible explanation could be.

Always running the latest homeOS versions—non-Beta, as they are OG HomePods and so do not support Betas.

In the habit of running tvOS 27 Betas—but willing to install whatever might work better.

🆓 FIRST THURSDAY @ISG “Meeting Esther: A Cross-Cultural Night of Art and Music” TONIGHT, 5-8PM [Scroll making w Becky Behar &amp; music by Ira Klein]

Tonight, as per usual, is sold out—meaning all of the free advanced tickets have been reserved. But veterans like myself are eligible for up to 4️⃣ free guest tickets (for any day + time, including events such as this). ISG has a limited number of additional free tickets available in-person at the main entrance the day of such events—but there is no guarantee when/if they will run out. So if you want guaranteed admission you should go with a veteran—or at least arrange to get tickets from a veteran after they have picked them up on the day of the event.

Don’t hesitate to start a Reddit chat for any info and/or for help getting in tonight.

FWI Let’s say current US admin commits the worst crimes imaginable. If SCOTUS gave POTUS immunity, and POTUS pardons the entire administration, what could ever be done legally to any of them?

Just saw a post about one of the top Nazis, who appears to have hung himself in prison when he was 94y/o. Made me wonder how that could possibly happen today, legally speaking, in the US. I think we have to assume there will be pardons all around—as that is what the reporting says Trump is telling folks in his orbit. So if POTUS is immune + folks in his orbit are pardoned, how could legal mechanisms produce any accountability?

Which App would you use to find folks to visit art museums with (and why that particular App)?

I’m a veteran in Boston and the museums in the area are wildly kind and generous in terms of free admission for military/veterans and our guests. I’m trying to figure out which App would be best to use—and why.

Museum of Fine Arts allows us to bring up to five guests for free.

Isabella Stewart Gardner allows us to bring up to four guests for free–even to their always sold-out events like Free First Thursdays!

Thanks in advance for any insights❣️💯🫡

I’m trying to workshop an idea for distributing the rarest Sprites—probably after farming Sprite Dust on Mondays: I’m thinking if someone is willing to bring their most valuable Sprite to gift to a player we matchmake with using FILL, I can bring the rarest Sprite they need. Thoughts?

Anyone have any brilliant successes telling folks you cross paths with about the sub?

🐶Cuba🐶 and I took the MBTA with someone today + totes wanted to tell them about the sub—but simultaneously feared being considered creepy. Best idea I can come up with is jotting down the sub with the drawing pens + (beautifully-colored) blank business cards I used to carry regularly. Thanks in advance for any advice you might be willing and able to share❣️💯🙌🏽🙌🏿🙌🏻

Fortnite won’t stop crashing on PS5—even after factory resetting the console. 😱🙀

So, for 24hrs+ Fortnite has randomly crashed during solo + games with friends, either during games or in the lobby with friends on PS5. Factory reset PS5 and it crashed again. Even rebooted my home network yesterday. Spent a few hours playing on my Switch 2 with no such issues. But I prefer PS5 to Switch 2, if I can manage to get Fortnite to run on PS5. Thanks!
