Suspicion is a spectrum. Can't blame people for raising an eyebrow at it, https://www.forbes.com/sites/alisondurkee/2024/12/12/trump-defends-nominating-people-with-project-2025-ties-heres-the-full-list/ Well I mean you, specifically can. Navarro returning is just bizarre, all said

Well armour got better And then goofy again

The old Battletech cartoon. I don't recommend you watch it

Canadian finance minister resigned or pushed out, fun drama. Doesn't change anything as Trudeau is on borrowed time, though.

Hm. https://www.cnn.com/2024/12/16/politics/donald-trump-softbank/index.html maybe it won't be a song and dance. Project 2025 doesn't really seem like fear mongering, given appointments. But then again you take Trump at face value for some reason. True enough, he's making everything better.

Why is it good news?

New stove appears to hit the set temperatutres. Isn't level though, so that's another thing I need to do. The beep when it's hit the set temperature is some feeble two tone as opposed to the mighty beep of our old one. Ah well, things only get worse, I suppose.

Done with Venetica, that ending was so anticlimactic. Nice melodrama though, bad guy screaming "NOW YOU WILL DIE" and honestly seemed like Anakin, getting so pissed off at a Council not recognizing his greatness and potential that he goes loco and tries to end the world. At least I finished the game with my character wearing a dress showing a lot of leg. Good old 2000s console game. That said, was an enjoyable time burner. Would have paid $10 for it - got 20h from it and I did most of the sidequess.

People upset about Ciri not being hot enough are the funniest.

Yah, needing new pots is the issue with those and cost. Even the oven drawer in this one is flimsy sheet metal, sheesh. One of the marketing points on this was "Made in USA", pfft.

Electric, regular old coil burners too. Management here dislikes glass tops, and I think our cast iron pots would probably break the glass top. The old one was having weird oven issues, set to 350 F but it only reached 300 F or so. And one burner was out of commission as well. Just how it goes I guess, maybe I just assume "heavier = more robust". Definitely displeased with the EnerGuide rating being higher, had hoped for efficiency gains - wasn't involved in picking the model

Said goodbye to my 19 year old stove. The new one feels so cheaply made I think we should have just fixed the old one.

Crappy parenting and probably too much porn, I guess. Kids raised by the Internet are older now. As seen with the female Custodes, some people confuse lore with history

This will mean the first game will be on a big sale, hopefully

Suitably grimdark Also, CDPR gone woke!!111

Grinding along in Venetica. Grows on you after a while. That said, so does an infection. But definitely isn't worth the 47/100 score I see it has on GOG, is a bit jank. I find the bad guys funny, especially in the way they abuse the rules to become immortal - cast immortality on yourself and then kill yourself which works somehow.

Armour designs are something else

Just one more

Fake but still

Well the rebels are being good so far, they're not complaining about Israel bombing or raiding the country If they do become a proper state, wonder if Israel will leave Golan.

Why is that a surprise? His industry isn't all that popular, his company is less so and he was just some suit that wouldn't care that much about regular people. Wouldn't change things, unless you kill a lot. But will go to show suits they bleed like everyone else. He should have wasted some finance bros.

Guess the metaphor wasn't all that clear to you.
