It depends, but rarely the truth. It only took me 30+ years buy I finally learned that 99.99999% of people asking don’t care. And they really don’t want the truth if it’s worse than ‘so-so’.

Indeed it is. I’ve said before in other posts that it’s insane how you can’t watch local sports without a cable plan unless you watch the NFL. And the NFL is moving in that direction too though the only positive is that if the team is in your local market for the time being you can still see it on broadcast TV unlike the MLB. For me at least I’m not incentivized to pay for every subscription service to get access to games. Nor am I going to pay that insane $80 a month Hulu w/ TV, Sling, etc bullshit that’s just cable TV but streamed.

If I didn’t live in the market of one of the teams (ie it wasn’t on broadcast tv for me) I wouldn’t be paying for Netflix to watch the NFL today. In which case I’d watch the NBA instead. Personally the Christmas NFL games feel pointless. Like it’s obviously just NFL greed (they’re getting a bundle from Netflix) and so far it’s nothing impressive imo.

You have to be huffing some major copium if you think he’s going to help disabled people make more money. He helped prevent (via one of his appointed judged) people getting overtime pay if you make more than $30k. Plus Project 2025 calls for stripping disability and other protections from individuals with disabilities. So no he isn’t going to do anything for the disabled community except make our lives worse.

Oh no! Anyway…

Feel like all my favorites fell off pretty hard. Was a big fan of Blizzard from Starcraft and Warcraft 3 which led into World of Warcraft. Still play WoW, but Blizzard as a company lost any love I had after all their shitty doings outside the game.

Bungie is a similar story. Halo was awesome and the Destiny universe used to have a choke hold on me due to the lore alone. But their CEO is a piece of shit and their decisions to force playtime over fun or enjoyable content has seen me distance myself from their stuff to a severe degree.

I grew up with an SNES and used to be a huge Nintendo fan, but again eh. The Switch I found to be bleh. And as a huge Legend of Zelda fan their moving the series into a stamina meter thing turned me off.

Know it sounds like I hate or am down on gaming. I’m really not. Just hyper aware of the behind the scenes BS and has killed a lot of video game hype for me. I still play WoW and enjoy it. I still play a little Destiny 2 and kind of enjoy myself when I do. But my golden age of gaming has passed me by. Everything now is about battle passes, gatcha mechanics, pay shops etc and feels like only Soulslikes deliver a full game. Sadly I’m too crappy to play those lol

No one wants to place the blame on the IDF or Netenyahu it’s always ‘Dems’. Well hey if they get wiped out under Trump I’m sure that’ll be Dems fault too

I appreciate that you can get manifested pages without having to grind the base pages elsewhere. They’re still too stingy with the eerie engrams though.

Oh for sure. I’ll hyper focus on something and become obsessed with it. Then when I pull the trigger on it the fear that I’ve made a poor choice will begin to build. I’m kind of dealing with that with my return to Warhammer 40,000 (40k is the common abbreviation). Sucks because nothing wrong with my choice persay but I also want to do this other stuff instead. Literally debated for about two months before making the choice and still feel like I picked wrong. Oh well -_-

Ah I see. Thanks for the info. Will have to keep it in mind!

Never heard of that. Is it a reader? My issue is that the text and such is just tiny on PDFs. I had the same issue reading e-books for school. It’s just easier and more accessible for me to read the physical medium. But the cost of it keeps me out of reading them. Do have a bunch of PDF comics from Humble Bundle I need to try to read xD

I love comics, and manga, but they’re hard for me to read due to the cost. Digital comic bundles are great but then I run afoul of my issue with reading PDFs (it’s really hard for me to read digital comics/books like borderline impossible for me).

Mostly I was reading Marvel with a little DC. Tried to stick to offbrand stuff in those lines instead of the X-Men, Avengers, or Batman etc.

Seeing it again yeah lol

For me a lot of meltdowns feel like spiraling. Unable to communicate how I feel, feeling alone/separated, racing thoughts that run the gamete from anxious to depressing. Typically I want to reach out and connect to someone but I can’t and that makes it worse somehow. It’s scary to deal with especially as a lot of it feels so irrational yet it has a real impact.

I get this, but in my feet. Just have to rub the bottom of my foot on something and hope for the best. Suuuuucks.

He’s a fine kicker, but an absolute chud and I hate they gave him all that money.

Nice debunked conspiracy theories pushed by the GOP to vilify the ‘other’. I’d say try harder but you’re clearly a tool of the fascists.

Yes! Educating people on the value of Blue Jays and trying to dispell the myths about them is important. Know my mom constantly is telling coworkers and others about how the Blue Jays get a bad rap. The ones around us have a mile plus wide communication network that gets the word out about predators and food being available. Kind of cool to hear them if you’re on a walk and then see the hawk they’re chasing/warning about.

This sentiment always makes me laugh. We have a large family or three that live in the area and hang out on our feeder and water. They get pushed around by the morning doves, woodpeckers and sparrows. Cardinals and house finches spaz out on their own and fly off.

Reanimation is soooo good. Still have my original copy of Hybrid Theory and it’s great, but the edits on Reanimation just work really well. Meteora is good though their constant experimentation can make some stinkers.
