If we're going to go there.. let's add in:

Happy 4th of July to my countrymen. We had a nice group workout this morning, and now we are taking it easy. I'll BBQ for dinner. I am enjoying the folks poking fun at the All Live Matter crowd by posting All Countries Matter. People really need to laugh at themselves a bit more.

"When the jaws open wide and there’s more jaws inside, that’s a Moray"

It took me a minute or two to "get" this. But once I did it was worth a chuckle. They were a thing after I was too old for cartoons. Except Simpsons, South Park, and Duckman that is.

So, no different than any other recent year.

protesters ain't trying to change history, but instead demand recognition of it. God bless America; we love it for what it is and not what we wish it. happy 4th. stay safe.

Bro. You better check your exhaust system, seems you're something is leaking in!

Welcome to part 2 of Random Musings of a Truck Driver. My series of philosophical and pseudo scientific (at best) ramblings. Last time I talked about time, this time I'm going to talk about nothing. *insert joke about most of my posts being about nothing* Does nothing exist? Is it real or an abstract? For that matter, what even is nothing? When we say "nothing" what are we talking about? You can walk into a room completely devoid of furniture and say that nothing is in the room. Even ignoring that you are in the room, the room still has air in it. Okay, let's say we are talking about a vacuum. So we hop in our trusty space ship and blast off into the solar system, nowhere near any planet, asteroid, or comet. So what's out here, outside the space ship, is that nothing? It may be devoid of matter, but it probably still has some radiation and/or energy. Okay, let's go further into interstellar space, or even intergalactic space, surely out here we can find a pocket of space that is a true hard vacuum, right? For the sake of this thought experiment let's say we do find said hard vacuum, surely this is nothing, right? Well, according to quantum field theory even the vacuum itself has a field and a zero point energy, so isn't that something and if so that means even a hard vacuum isn't "nothing". Can we have nothing anywhere in our universe? Wouldn't there always be, at the very least, spacetime itself and the zero point energy of the vacuum? The next question might be "what about outside the universe"? What is outside the universe or if there even is such a thing as outside the universe goes beyond the scope of this post, so I won't go there (yet?). Even just the concept itself, can nothing, truly nothing, the absence of absolutely everything exist? If there isn't anything at all then how can it exist? So I guess my conclusion is that nothing doesn't exist as anything more than an abstract.

It's based on Bethesda's Fallout which means it's basically based on fart jokes.

"Sign outside the Chicago Bagel Authority on Belmont Avenue:"

I was walking past a farm and a sign said: "Duck, eggs!" I thought: "That's an unneccesary comma - then it hit me."

An epidemiologist, an ICU doctor, and a scientist all walk into a bar. I'm just kidding, they all know better.

Debates about the nature of nothingness have been around since at least the ancient Greeks. Their thinking brought about the concept of the aether as a medium for light to travel through. Now, of course, we have the quantum vacuum. Emptiness can be quite a fascinating subject really.

Hopefully Bethesda are a lot better at developing a television streaming service series than they are at developing games.

I played FO4 long into the night. Once the coffee makes... going back. So, I'm playing in Survival mode and that not being able to save except when resting is really changing how I play. I downloaded a mod that makes weapons considerably more damaging. You might survive one bullet but not two. I'm walking down that road that runs south out of Concord and it occurred to me it's been a pretty long time since I'd saved. Maybe 45 minutes of gameplay or more. Suddenly I'm no longer walking I'm sneaking down the road. And checking the terrain all around me with a scope looking for enemies or places likely to have beds or those blue shelters (I have a mod that lets you save inside them in Survival Mode). I pass this huge bunch of buildings to the left and hear a massive firefight going on in them. Ordinarily I'd have waded right into the middle of that! Not this time skipper. Discretion is the better part of valor when you haven't saved in a while. Come back to that later!

Oh, clever!

I did briefly suspect the mod was only adding the description but when I couldn't find any other related mods on the existing veil piercing items I discarded that theory lol. I guess now I know why all the items that have veil piercing start with it rather than adding it in an enchantment. Thanks for the help I guess I can still implement this through the crafting window (ie, make a separate item with veil piercing baked in), as inelegant as that is.

Seems as if the MOD_Veil_Piercing item mod only exists to display the text, without actually doing anything. The two status effects of the general_spirit_veiled ability only seem to care wether the incoming attack has the Veil_Piercing Keyword or not. "AttackFilter": { "KeywordsIDs": [ "1b6d77c8-1155-4d49-9c7c-548716f0d409" ], "KeywordLogic": "Not", [...] } I don't think it's possible to add new Keynwords to existing attacks through ItemMods, sadly. So it might be hard to implement.

if we are gonna trade... get tens o' thousands o' people packed into lambeau or fedex field singing mr. taylor's civil rights era anthem in unison would be a beautiful thing. ... let us enjoy the dream. HA! Good Fun!

Red Embrace: Hollywood.

Is this about vampires or is it a metaphor about the spread of cancel culture in Hollywood?
