  1. Not sure of the details of Evangelical Christian Zionism eschatology (what a mouthful), but I think they're trying to set the stage because, well, they've said it.
  2. We can't bring about the return of Jesus without a war to end all wars in Israel
  3. Beat the game with the DLC last week. Contemplating a new run but while I like the game more than the Pathfinder games, I don't find it as replayable... He said after beating it 4 times.
  4. It was just a little teaser on Reddit. An announcement of an announcement.
  5. Made some pasta for lunch with a sweet Italian sausage and some Calabrian chili and Truff sauce
  6. Close to 70 percent of Gaza war fatalities children, women: UN Human Rights Office
  7. I feel like people are forgetting or not caring that Trump killed all efforts to fix this because he wanted to run on it And as far as the low turnout, I wonder how much of it had to do with efforts to limit voting. I don't just mean purging voter rolls but also limiting voting places and ballot boxes. I'm not sure that I'd stand in line for 6 hours to vote.
  8. I have no idea what they do when they arrive in person as I've never voted in California but I think they get mostly get their ballots mailed to them and then they mail them back or have drop boxes like we do in Colorado. But please, please refer to my first post. Do you really think hundreds of thousands or millions of illegal immigrants, for the first time ever, are going to put themselves under extra scrutiny and risk serious charges from the government just to go vote? While also having at least the names of just as many people who registered but they know aren't going to show up to vote, otherwise they'd be found out real quick, in a state where it doesn't even matter? Why is this an issue? Is it the principle of the thing or something? I don't get it but I'm genuinely curious. It has never happened in recent history and I have no idea about the beforefore times but I doubt it. If this is now moving to the swing states next then I'm out because please read my first post.
  9. It's a solution to a problem that literally doesn't exist and any extra burdens you start adding have a chilling effect, especially on the groups mentioned. Plus our country has a history of this kind of thing so it's just a new spin on an old classic.
  10. I think he means more like expats that live full time in other countries... Also what's the difference between an expat and an immigrant? Seems like one of those trashy for the poor and classy for the rich things.
  11. I made meatballs, potatoes, and adjika.
  12. I'm stressing out about a spider that I accidentally killed while trying to take it out, yesterday. Of all the things for my _____ brain to focus on. I don't even like spiders.
  13. I ended up backing both but at the lowest tier that gets you the game
  14. This is my experience as well and I also grew up in rural farmland. My experience with vegans, or people considering it, is also similar with most that I've met wanting meat substitutes. Speaking only for my non-vegan self, I like a good bean burger for what it is but an impossible burger is just so much more what I usually want and that is heavily processed and not healthy. I've dabbled with different vegetarian persuasions but I always end up coming back to meat, provided that it is cruelty free, or at least much less cruel, I mean nature is ****ing cruel as **** but that doesn't mean we have to be.
  15. I voted but it's not really a question on which way my state is going to go.
  16. My wife isn't a big fan of shrimp but she always eats a few when I make them but rarely wants much of her own. Usually because it doesn't go with her wine and that's how she likes to plan meals, around the wine. My son claims to love shrimp for some reason because he never eats it when it's actually offered and I'm pretty sure my daughter is a Loki variant. I make them several ways but my favorite is just in a broth of wine, butter, garlic, parsley, kalamata olives, and lemon juice. It was a recipe that my mom used to make for me when I was a kid. I serve it with a big chunk of bread but the kids just like the bread. I typically get shell off and deveined raw shrimp but it depends on what I'm making. Sometimes I'll get them shell on and peel them myself but since nobody here really loves shrimp I feel like that's effort for nothing.
  17. I skipped Midnight Suns because of the deck building but I may give it a shot eventually. I have it from some Humble bundles but haven't bothered redeeming it yet. The problem for me is that I have so many games that are pretty close to exactly what I want that I don't really feel the need to really experiment with new things or things I'm on the fence about. I have more games than I have time to play them.
  18. The next 3 closest ones to me closed. We used to go on or around her birthday. I did end up making shrimp and just finished eating, well, when I started typing this a couple hours ago. The kids hated it and my wife isn't a big fan so I finished everyone's plates. They humor me only so far.
  19. I'm on the fence about the Pathfinder game and the Pirate game from the BattleTech/Shadowrun guy. I'll probably end up backing both and then never playing either, as is my way.
  20. I have a phone. I got it to play some Blizzard game way back when but then forgot about it. Maybe I can finally use it.
  21. I gave up on this a while back but can't say I'm not enjoying watching this somehow get spectacularly worse with each update
  22. Been a minute but I've been loving the new DLC. I didn't even have to Miracle Max it as it was only slightly broken at launch and there have already been a handful of patches to fix everything.
