Even My Business-School Students Have Doubts About Capitalism

Don't Look Up. My wife loved it but I thought it was meh.

I've literally had this conversation with more people than I'd care to admit. Them: What's the point of getting vaccinated if you can still catch it? Me: Lower odds of serious illness Them: But you can still die Me: Yes, but the likelihood of that happening is drastically reduced Them: Me: Them: If you're going to the store grab me a lottery ticket

Agreed on standing back from the walls. I had that issue too though I think at some point I just started using dimension door out of laziness.

I agree with Bruce. COVID impacting my social life for 2 years is worse and has more far reaching effects than the entire history of colonialism.

Covid's body count is now 3 for people I personally know. All unvaccinated.

Wrathfinder: Path of the Righteous was easily my game of the year

I think it's called alignment shifts that aren't dumb. I just looked at it and I was wrong, it doesn't change it to a one axis switch but rather lawful or chaotic instead of neutral when you pick a good or evil option. I think it works based on your existing alignment but that way your paladin won't switch to neutral good by only picking good options, or looking at it another way, the only way to switch to neutral will be actually taking neutral options. E: I guess taking opposite alignment actions will work as well

Discord also works as a message board as I've never used any voice or audio communication on it. I'm on their Discord but I don't really care for navigating it. I'm also not a fan of alignment systems and especially Owlcat's implementation. I guess that's why there's a mod to change it so alignment shifts only occur on the listed axis. It hasn't been an issue in any of my games so far but i haven't played any classes with alignment restrictions other than just testing them out.

Happy New Year!

I learned that the hard way in my first couple of playthroughs. I both like and hate that some choices early in the game have such major consequences in the end.

I haven't made much progress in my game because while I was stuck deciding which mythic path to take I started reconsidering my class. Maybe magus, maybe inquisitor, maybe go back to an old save and kill Hulrun for good measure. Le sigh.

Just finished catching up on UnXplained with Billy Shats. I like it okay but it's not filling that HN (Ancient) Alien sized hole in my heart because even though they have what seems like 90% of the same people commenting on stuff, they don't indulge in the crazy nearly enough.

Harry Reid and John Madden

I've been using ignore less because it sometimes gets really confusing especially when people don't directly quote the person they are responding to, something I'm often guilty of. Since I was using the script that completely removes blocked posts it got so bad at several points that I felt like I had to mention it for clarity. That said, I'm also not above a little pettiness now and again.

That's better than just Lich but it would be nice if it was for all paths. I actually like the crusade but I wish there was more to it. I guess I can see why they wouldn't want to put more resources into an optional part of the game since there's no guarantee it'll get more people to engage with it. I'm a huge fan of HoMM type games though and may be too forgiving because it's my jam.

Just started chapter 2 with my tiefling sorc. Not sure which path I want to go yet but since I have the merge spellbooks mod I actually feel like I can just RP it instead of metagaming it and that's new and fun.

Dogs notice when computer animations violate Newton’s laws of physics

I'm not looking forward to anything and I'll still probably be disappointed. /rayofsunshine

That's how I feel about nuTrek. I used to think that more episodes would allow them to open things up more and explore the setting, characters, and some of the ideas they keep throwing out then glossing over but then I came around to the same conclusion. It'd probably just be more of the same.

Watched The Night Before and Ernest Saves Christmas, two of my favorite Xmas movies.

I've always gone with the belt for Mallander's when I go fire with my blasters, which is almost always. PS fire seems to be the devs favorite with all the things that boost it

The war on Christmas will continue until it ends its illegal occupation of November!

Yeah, me and Jonathan Majors look nothing alike but I just watched The Harder They Fall and he killed it. It's my vote for best western of the year and just about as realistic as most westerns, not at all.

When they make a movie about my life I think I want to be played by Jonathan Majors.
