This is a weird video. It’s about cookies, and it’s a detailed strategy guide to a dorky game, and it’s a thinly-veiled allusion to current events. Hope you like it!

This is the latest in a series of bewildering April Fools videos – previous installments include the Hodor vid, Game of Bones Explained, Leaked Footage Explained, and Alt Shift Exe’s masterful contribution. Not gonna lie, it’s hard to come up with something fresh and ridiculous for every April Fools’ – glad I only have to be funny once a year.

Meanwhile, the Westworld S3E03 video is coming along. There’s a lot of cool stuff to discuss about Charlotte’s journey this episode – all sorts of thematic and symbolic stuff, as well as the intrigue around Serac and Delos…

Hope you’re all finding ways to stay sane and safe. Thanks so much for your support this month!

I'm only funny once a year he says ... lol, ok. This is perfect. The sheer glory of it will help me stay sane for one more day. Thanks, Shift.

What the actual hell 😂 My brain is trying to recover from Tiger King and you throw this at me. You are competing for the craziest, most escalating thing I’ve seen this week

Listening to this one more time I suddenly had the epiphany that, if imagined read in another tone of voice, it gives me serious Random Article vibes

When I was in college I used my laptop to play cookie clicker for a week straight. I wrote a simple script that would click the mouse something like 30 times per second so that when I got golden cookies I could turn on turbo click and skyrocket my cookie numbers, and I played til I got a few ascension levels and demon grandmas and everything. Did the same thing with the paperclip game (same idea, basically https://www.decisionproblem.com/paperclips/index2.html) but that one ends with every atom in the universe becoming a paperclip. I'm so glad I've been reminded of these games during quarantine :) here comes another cookiepocalypse

Thank you so much for this video. I've just shared it as I think it needs to beard by a lot of folks. Spoiler: It ain't about cookies.
