  1. We had raccoons in the backyard two nights in a row earlier this week. Sucks because my dogs love running in the yard at night but I can't let them out if I think there might be any critters that might attack them instead of running away.
  2. The food and the food? The weather and the food?
  3. Prince Philip the Queen's cousin/husband
  4. Their stance is that corporate money fits really snugly in their pocket. like on other side of spectrum is it any different Tell me about that immense amount of lobbying money that goes towards pushing climate change action. Simply not an issue they care much about in general. That's slowly changing among Republican voters but how long that will take to "trickle up" I couldn't hazard a guess especially considering the factors that Gromnir already listed. It's not going to be cheap or easy and it will require both sides to work together. That our current leadership thinks it just knows better than the experts isn't helpful either
  5. I tried not to take my pain meds when I had all mine removed and all I can say is don't do that
  6. I have to wonder if things like living at home longer are just a product of different financial realities and not necessarily entitlement and lack of effort ...said the millennial Of course I also have 2 brothers that live at home and don't really apply themselves so there's that
  7. So are you ready to go full accelerationist and vote Bernie/Tulsi in '20 yet? Dream ticket in flight! Afternoon delight!
  8. EA Lays Off 350 People In Marketing, Publishing, And More Seems to be all on the bizniz side
  9. Not really a sale but Morrowind is free through Bethesda's store https://bethesda.net/en/article/zTLJdDWzVy0Ak7SMatqNG/celebrate-25-years-of-the-elder-scrolls
  10. Finally all caught up on STD. Even though I still think it doesn't feel like Trek I still liked the episodes until I got to the last two. I don't even know if I want to keep watching now. I'll probably wait until the season is over and see what you guys say here. I can't believe someone wrote them and then someone else approved that crap.
  11. I had all the best 80s fashion.. in the 90s. I even had a few Bills super bowl champ shirts.
  12. 3rd party voters make the best punching bags
  13. Well, I think of it like this. If they make it 3rd person only then they'll lose out on people who refuse to play from that view but if they make it 1st person they will lose out on people who can't play with that view. I've not often heard of people getting sick from 3rd person view but this thread and the TOW boards have people complaining of motion sickness in 1st. Would prefer a toggle but since that doesn't seem to be in the cards then I hope the same thing I hope for with TOW, some good field of view options.
  14. source? https://twitter.com/VtM_Bloodlines/status/1108948381127204865 It's weird because so much of the pre-order stuff is outfits
  15. Dora actually looks interesting Us kind of reminds me of a Simpsons Tree House of Horror episode
  16. The reliance on cybernetic limb replacements instead of cloned limbs or something.
  17. I usually find it's the people who don't have a good grasp of things trying to ban or otherwise limit those things. I've said before that you don't necessarily need to be an expert on something to have a good idea about it but it doesn't hurt and usually stops the worst and most pointless ideas early on.
  18. I spent a good chunk of the day typing up responses to various posts around this place and a few others before deciding it wasn't worth engaging. Other than that I moved some furniture down into the basement and paid some bills. Also, looking into some side jobs as there's so much I want to get for the house but don't have the funds for.
  19. The only thing I did differently was to add wine instead of water when the liquid got a little lower but I didn't need to add much and mostly did it because I didn't want to have an open bottle of wine around (and going to waste) and was channelling Gerard Depardieu from the Last Holiday. I don't usually like experimenting too much the first time I use a recipe but next time I make it I may be more adventurous but at the same time it came out so great, so...
  20. Yes, it's south of Tucson and maybe a 4 hour drive from Sedona depending on traffic as you'll have to pass through or around the largest two cities in AZ. Slightly closer to Sedona I'd recommend the Petrified Forest National Park (and Painted Desert) and is about 2 hours east and Meteor Crater is on the way. Montezuma Castle National Monument is less than an hour south of Sedona and I can recommend that as well but I haven't been there in probably 2 decades. If you ever do make it down to the Tucson area then I can recommend more as that's where I'm from
  21. ^ It's 1,2, and 4 for me as the played the first game entirely in 3rd person but I do also think TN is already probably right about it being on all platforms at launch at a time is also a factor. The timing kind of worked out perfectly with all the Epic shenanigans going on. I'm sure 3 is also a huge factor for a lot of others though. Regarding 2, I've been so starved for a vampire (lowercase as I'm not familiar with uppercase much outside of the previous games) RPGs that I nearly got that Vampyr game but the gameplay and camera were really offputting to me and I'd prefer modern urban fantasy/horror over pretty much anything else for such things. Question to those who are familiar with Vampire, how would we go from being a thinblood to some ultra-powerful vampire? Diablerie?
  22. I've never actually seen Night of the Lepus but I've been to Colossal Cave about fifty-eleven times and they love to mention all the movies that have filmed there.
  23. I used everything pretty much exactly as you mentioned it but I used both carrots and parsnips and did go with the prunes over the raisins or sugar. Every time I think of prunes I flash back to the TNG episode where Guinan gives Worf prune juice. It's a warrior's drink!
