My vet tech wife agrees.

The antibiotics should’ve done the job so the cat needs attention.

My first CRPG, and my only RPG had been D&D.

My dad ran a campaign for our family when I was seven or so. Original D&D, not even advanced. It didn’t last terribly long but left a lifelong impression.

I recently inserted Creeping Coins to my Curse of Strahd campaign, as a matter of fact.

It was an unpopular twist, despite the group carrying a fortune in cursed money and having nothing whatsoever to spend it on.

My buddies and I would play on the Playstation (2?) and I got very very good at ninja roping across the map to drop dynamite on someone’s head and swing back to safety in time.

Nothing more I loved than that maneuver, except maybe getting a concrete donkey.

As another commenter pointed out, I was thinking of the 5200. But yeah, I was also doubtful.

Ah, you’re right! Brain failure. Thank you.

The 7800 had a controller with a keypad used for many games.

Is that gone entirely?

Who am I kidding, I wouldn’t have bought one anyway, but it was my first console.

You know, you’re right. I’m weird. I love being weird. I associate with weird people, generally those who would also self-identify as weird.

It’s a fluid word that can be used in a lot of weird ways.

But it has never bothered me that it’s used in this context personally. I understand it’s directed at people who are just not right, and in other times that could’ve included some of us.

It’s of course meant in the context of “You are acting unacceptably and we can’t be quiet about it anymore.”

And the meme came from Gov. Walz, who carves butter. That’s weird! In a strange and adorable Midwestern way.

Article makes it clear this is not Humble Bundle, which was what I had assumed.

Thank you for elaborating, and apologies for assuming I fully understood.

I totally get the existential dread, anxiety, and depression. Never easy to cope with.

Yup, that was the point. They used to do that but now realize they might actually be needed.

No, they were saying they didn’t bother since their party was winning anyway. Easy to misread though.

She is a woman of color who was a cop and prosecutor when recent events call those first two qualities into question with the latter two.

But this is a time when Democrats, I believe, will say that this is a strong candidate with knowledge of the legal system in a time when we need to strike down right-wing supported terrorism and put the enemies of our nation away.

Let’s see how she campaigns, not that she can lose my vote.

The phrase is Democrats fall in love, Republicans fall in line.

But I don’t think it’s really all that accurate. It’s more like Republicans fall in line, Democrats come to terms with.

And we will.

Also, Biden was not bad at the job. Few had the knowledge of the levers of power to keep shit running with Republican/Sinema/Manchin obstruction.

But he is four years older, and I hope moving to a different candidate works out. Democrats should love a chance to vote for a totally new candidate who keeps most of the same mildly progressive agenda.

But I will say if she doesn’t stick with the plan to reform the Supreme Court I will be extremely disappointed.

To add to this, he had looked up several targets, including Biden. So it was likely as you say, a psychotic break followed by lashing out, rather than a partisan choice.

What SKUmmy behavior.

City of Lost Children, and to a slightly lesser extent, Delicatessen and Amelie, all directed by Jean-Pierre Jeunet.

I’ve yet to see worldbuilding as effortless as it is in the first two movies.

Drop you in blind, explain nothing, get very weird, and tell a fantastic story.

The West theater in Duluth MN.

We have an Imax elsewhere in town but The West is a single screen theater owned by a local couple who wanted their old neighborhood cinema back.

I don’t go to the movies often, but I always try to go there. And it’s the closest to my house too.

There’s a whole range of possible symptomatic ‘quirks’ autistic people have. I wouldn’t go trying to determine “how autistic” you are in such a way.

If you go out of your way to try new foods, but settle in on the one thing you like and keep getting it, to me that would seem a little obsessive from both sides.

“I must try everything so I know the best one.”

Most people would go “Hmm, what do I want tonight?” That’s the ‘normal’.

Me, I was very picky as a kid. Then I opened up my palate and tried a bunch of new things, surprising relatives who had known me my whole life.

Then I discovered I have serious sensitivities, which is probably why as a kid I stuck with just a few foods.

But in the end I don’t know I am autistic. I’d just be surprised if I wasn’t.

I don’t know what changed with modern trailers but they’re almost unwatchable.

I think it starts with the “Oh shit, get excited for what you’re about to watch” opening. I know what I’m about to watch, I chose that.

Then quick cuts all over the place. Just makes me disoriented.

I’m not gonna see this anyway. I’m in the extremely small minority that didn’t like the first one.

Humanity is a lost cause. Still worth fighting for.
