For that reminder about being careful with social media apps.. That Most Used Words Facebook quiz is a privacy nightmare

And as everyone gets into Jessica Jones...

Buried in work pretty much from things he's said, along with a lot of travel time to and from. So not so much internet access or time to be casually browsing and keeping up with forum threads, when he does get time it tends to focus more on relaxing with games I gather. Which reminds me I should probably make some effort to actually expanding my steam friends list at some point... Of course actually signing into the friends thing when I'm playing games might be a thing to do as well...

Well one of the comments Lucas made about how the fights should be compared between originals and prequels come down to the fact that we only ever saw three real lightsaber fights. Vader - intimidating as hell, but still kind of half crippled so not being able to show what he could really do, facing against Obi-Wan who was an old man.. and then later against Luke who was still barely trained and didn't have much practical grounding in lightsaber combat. So that was one of the reasons why they wanted to shift it to something much more mobile/acrobatic and flourish-ey.

But for the slightly more serious.. The 2 year old who threw a tantrum in front of the president? She was my daughter.

Just to throw this out there... Edit: Okay, for some reason the picture squishes.. but if you click on it you get a readable version open up.

Just when you thought it was safe to get back on the internet... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Of2HU3LGdbo

At least it isn't Joseph and the Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat...

Had the joys of a 9am appointment at the jobcentre, so that was getting up early enough to be able to make it through morning rush hour into the city center. Now home and pondering, the weather is incredibly chill, so with my fresh cup of tea I might just binge watch Jessica Jones today as a form of escapism before trying to adult again.

Getting a might frustrated, have a quest to return to mayor Kessler at Bunker Hill and trying to persuade her to join the Minutemen. The trouble being is she's walking around, starts the quest return dialogue when I'm within a certain distance, and as conversation options come up to reply or persuade her.... she starts walking away. Even if she's sat down when I start the conversation, she will stand up in the middle of the "cinematic" part of the conversation and walk away. Which ends the conversation before you can actually make any replies, and then won't let you start the frikkin thing up again.

Well, it's kind of cool (and a good reminder..)

Okay, before this jumps back into the "no it can't / yes it can" argument with no-one wanting to give.. let's distract by other star wars stuff...

I think Bashir has a lot of development considering where he ends up compared to that innocent who started the show... Of course, the last few seasons covering his relationship with a certain tailor made pure gold on screen.

To help with the mood..

For the crossover that needs to happen...(or just be a general fan film)

One thing that does strike me is that.. hm, you can end up joining the Railroad , and if you do it's most likely after you've been the leader of the Minutemen. You'd think there'd be some way to combine/ally the two groups together. Or at least having the Railroad using your influence to use Minutemen settlements for aid and wotnot... I mean, Deacon pretty much does that "Wow, this is the leader of the Minutemen, we want him working with us" at the start.. and then nothing further gets mentioned. (well, at least not yet that I've noticed). Ah well. I guess it's all standard Bethesda writing and ne'er the "factions" shall meet.

Oh yes.. here's one for Bruce to jump on and consider.. Columbia student in anguish because she has to read books by white people When Toni Morrison's work lasts 2,000 years, they can sub out Ovid for her. Getting mad at the little whelp doesn't do any good. She is now in her "safe space" where, as Jonah Goldberg writes in his newsletter this morning, she is free to play with her "conceptual" toys: The campus Huns pillaging higher education these days only want to talk about “white privilege” -- unimpeded by debate, facts, reality, or anything smacking of an opposing point of view -- because it is psychologically comfortable and politically empowering. Contemplating that your problems don’t have all that much to do with systemic bigotry is discomfiting. So they want safe spaces to play with their conceptual Lincoln Logs and Tinker Toys. This is why so many liberals are far, far, far more comfortable calling tea-partiers “terrorists” than they are talking about actual, you know, terrorists. This is why in the wake of the Paris attacks we hear so much about “Christian terrorism” and why so many lefties have raced to arguments about gun control. That is why the supposedly smartest argument among the supposedly smart set these days is to build a time machine and stop Bush from invading Iraq. The hysterically exaggerated hypersensitivity to anything -- anything -- that can vaguely be construed (or dishonestly promoted) as racist or "proving" white privilege is making a mockery of the term "higher" education. It's as if the Visigoths are sacking Rome all over again. Intellectually raping and pillaging across campus, they have normal students terrified and the grown men and women who are running the school groveling in the dust. Momma, don't let your baby grow up to be a college student.

Yeah, it gets initiated by the Russians in the bar who are friends with him.

There's actually a quest line that ends up building up the DJ's confidence and totally changes how he talks/acts on the radio. So that irritation value is technically intended in the beginning... Well, unless you're being irritated by how he talks and acts after that...
